The Lord Will Provide

“The Lord Will Provide”

I love the first sentence of Genesis 22:14, it says: “So Abraham called that place The LORD Will Provide.” God came through and provided for Abraham in a big way on that day, it seems reasonable that he would name that piece of ground “The LORD Will Provide.” This was no doubt one of those days and one of those moments in a person’s life that would never be forgotten. The reminder of this day and the provision of the Lord would help Abraham trust God in future circumstances. This day, above all others, showed Abraham just how much God cared for him and his family, it was a day he would never forget. What about you, do you have a day like this in your life? Can you remember a time in your life when God provided something that came just in the nick of time? A day when His provision amazed you? Is there a day you can point to and say, that was the day the Lord provided for me? We all have a day like that, many of us have many days like this. My challenge to you is to name that day. Don’t forget that time and never lose sight of how much God cares for you. Remember and name that day so when you are down you can go back to that time and know that God is truly your provider. Remember the days when the Lord came through for you in a BIG way and then you will never forget how important you are to God. Abraham gave that place of provision a name so it would never be forgotten. Let us do the same in our own way so we too will never forget the power and love found in God’s Holy provision.
