Faith Severely Tested Genesis 22:1-19
Read Genesis 22:1-19
How did God test Abraham and how did Abraham respond to God’s test?
What was the purpose of the test? (v.12)
Read Psalm 66:10; 1 Peter 1:6-7; James 1:3 – discuss the purpose of testing?
What similarities are there between Isaac and Jesus? In what ways is Jesus’ sacrifice different from that of Isaac?
Has God ever asked you to sacrifice someone or something you love? What happened? How were you blessed by this experience?
Are you ever afraid that God might ask too much of you? What would be too much? How can you remind yourself of God’s care for you?
What was Isaac’s response to Abraham’s test? From Romans 12:1, how should we be like Isaac?
Pray
Thank God for giving His Son to die for our sins.
Ask God to help you give your life as a living sacrifice.
Thank God that when He tests, He provides.
Share with Him your fears and concerns and rest in His goodness.
