Until God's doctor 20 evidences that delay can help us focus more on God gives us the blessed celebrating your faithfulness. This is the alternative Dr. Tony Evans, author, speaker, senior pastor of Oakland Bible Fellowship Texas and president of the God gives to us out of love. Open will respond the same way, but that's not always how it works much joy Dr. Evans as he talks about how we are to relate with our God who provides no more referenced. The Lord will provide the Lord will provide name is holy because he's addressing a situation in life that one living. Even if you like it was God Elohim created life. He does have the power to make life but when he uses this phrase Jehovah on the other compound means that we will look at something is going on in somebody's life and circumstance that God wants to use to unveil the book between a rock and a hard place. I talk about the story, not God, but focusing on being caught in a Catch-22.

But let's review it in terms of the name of God that see how it relates to you getting to know God's name in the situations of life. Please notice the problem is. Remember, God reveals his name personally in life circumstances.

Verse one of chapter 22 of Genesis says now it came about these things that God Abraham. Abraham said here. I think you also son, your only son you love, Isaac and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I will tell you, says the Lord tested Abraham asked Abraham in the most way. I want you to go up the mountain and I want you to worship me and as is the custom of the day. I want to sacrifice and the sacrifice will be your son, your only begotten son, whom you love.

Another way to Abraham I want you to give me the things you love most. The figure most excited about the thing that was a dream come true for you. I will.

I want you to give it back to me. Abraham this is a test. This test for moment because remember God's name comes in the simile that's German fourth situation in life. This was a theological test because God had told him to make up your son Isaac, a great nation. I give the teenager when this takes place. Isaac's not marriage. Isaac has no children. Yet God killing but you make a great nation, you can make a great nation out of children so God doesn't make sense to do his word had already promised you know God's one thing, but what you do now contradicts what you know, that makes sense contradicts the family contradicts telling Sarah what God now. Sarah would've lost her mother's baby boy's dad and you will no mention of service. This is a family crisis, social crisis, what think killing those to me, God said, make me look like a lost number six is a crisis perhaps is an emotional crisis feel about giving up the things you love most and waited and was the basis for your tomorrow. He's facing proportions that has in other words, this is a test that doesn't make sense and seems anybody ever been in one of the good news in advance when God allows you to go through things and it makes us why me why this why now it doesn't make sense to you, she's get ready to let you see something about him that you had never seen before to experience something from him that you've never experienced before. Because this is not only a problem. This is a problem with the contradiction between the plaintiff… Makes no that one of the defining moments in my life would be a broken play football. That simple block that's related to on the football field steel plate right now from the surgery that had to be performed would be a difficult finding moment God would use to reveal himself to me about another direction he would take this painful.

I was the field emergency surgery. No use that for moment to redirect me watching it with a broken leg for me it was unveiling of the name of God unexpectedly got Abraham please test because of the circumstances and how stressful painful anguishing is going through a crisis. What the test. When showings between the blessing and the blast saw what was the blessing it went along miracle pregnancy.

She supposed that they got what it means more to you the blessing. The blast because you also say that the blissful pass to say the blast saw God revealing present to you in the contradictory life choice between the blessing. It was a matter of worship you worship what it hurts when you begin testing. Let go of the blessing and choose the blessing and is possession of his life.

This had to be a tough time to go to church to stay home and get psychological, social, think of all, why did you hear what I just heard the talk all my friends and what you think what you think what you think would get a hold of going through doesn't makes Nixon… Just think to go to the mountain for verse seven we came to church.

He says God will provide for himself the lamb for the burnt offering God put in the situation that only he could fix.

Abraham convicts us to consult this. This is not something within his human support for God to do this himself. He will, behold, there was a ram caught in the thicket verse 13 bottle that is a mighty quiet ram that only makes noise at the right time. Do you know your answer could be sitting right next to you but you never know what until God is ready to reveal it. Your solution may be right next to thicket ready to reveal that the other side to create a right Abraham called the name of the place. Verse 14 Jehovah Gyro is the place the Lord will first three roles early in the morning and so obey immediately. Delay obedience becomes immediate disobedience of God and you think about it meditating on it.

Considering all get around to it does not see you have not on what he is saying she can accept delay obedience and obedience is complete got halfway to the trip journeys even if they like me about please give me credit get dressed please give me credit for seven adoptees to get upset see what is the radiance obedience when he saw that he would not withhold this give you for your time Dr. Evans will come back with a look at the connection between Abraham's son and God son when he returns in a moment to continue this message from his brand-new audio collection the best of Tony Evans 2021.

One of the reasons that some of us do not know the name Jehovah John for you what he said even though you may not understand how it's going to work out I had to be placed when God said no. Then the solution was right next waiting to give you an what you complete your sacrifice displaying single Christian, but you must give a single God that may be the desire for a mate may be so all completely as a single literally have the Presley wants you said you yeah money. God give you all know that you to go with what I give you what you have. I want you to put in my career. Whatever I don't understand, make it work out what you can all get Jehovah John gets when he provides nothing to ask to see that he was a vegan because he responds to think all when you see drivers show up when you have this in town.

What happened will remember when we read he got back. I think it says type so we got them back physically, he's alive now. It's something that foreshadows something else. The pipe is something that I like the fact what type of Jesus. They were sacrifices to foreshadow the coming of the one with down the process of something greater then the is foreshadowing what it is for shadowing is bigger, greater larger, more shoe compared to what he plus give these type. What does he give him it says the Lord called to him from heaven, and said, I have sworn, declares the Lord Jehovah because you have done this thing. I saw you doing your only son rural they bless you and multiply you, which is on the seashore and your seed shall possess the gate of the jumping blast because you have obeyed my direct report, you ain't seen nothing yet think you could lose everything. But because you are willing to put back everything else and everything else God, you know, before you raised this when he saw the blessing everybody showing up in church looking blessing and blessing the blessing of the spring 22 in verse 14 against a brand called the name of the place.

The Lord will provide.

This day in the amount of Jehovah in the middle of the Lord will be provided called the place Jehovah Gyro the Lord will provide where he provides he says it is provided in the amount of provide anywhere provide annual place in real time when there was a specific location will remain personal what you think when you bless your name. In spite of my pain. I'm going to like it when God makes no provision in the mountain just doing some good Christian God is making it worse when our bosses want us to do something that may have sacrificed for overtime work will come in on Saturday that what you sacrifice for the company.

Evaluation time comes they notice you, John, Jesus is talking to the Pharisees. The first is not condemning Jesus and then Jesus makes the statement, the unbelieving Jews saw and was glad Jesus Christ is claiming to be God around you guys showed up on the work day and was glad saw me. I was tickled pink watches.
