Jehovah-Jireh: The LORD Will Provide


Through out my life

Jehovah-Jireh

Has provided for me

I would not even be alive on this earth

If HE had not given me life

Day after day

I am amazed at God’s provision in my life

HE is the ONE I depend on

HE is the ONE who provided atonement for my sin

Through Jesus Christ

God the Father sent His one and only Son, Jesus,

To make atonement for my sin

Clear back to Abraham when God

Asked him to sacrifice his one and only son, Isaac,

Abraham had faith that moved mountains

For he told his young men to stay with donkey

And he and Isaac would go worship and return to them

When Isaac asked, where the lamb was for the burnt offering

Abraham replied, God will provide the lamb for the sacrifice

At the very moment when Abraham was about to slay his son

The LORD called out from heaven to stop and then he looked behind him

To see a ram caught in a thicket by his horns

And he used that in his son’s place

He blessed Abraham’s faith and said that in his seed

all the nations of the will be blessed because he had obeyed God’s voice.

That seed is Jesus Christ, who was ransomed for my sin

Glory to God in the Highest.

Amen.

 

The story of Abraham and Isaac is found in Genesis 22:1-19
