Christian Daily Devotional: Finding Insight From the Story of Abraham Sacrificing Isaac

It was only then I realized that, in believing in God, we should follow Abraham’s example—respect God’s greatness and come to God’s words and all His earthly arrangements with a pure, loyal and obedient heart.

The Bible tells the story of Abraham. When Abraham was one hundred years old, God gave him a son, Isaac. However, when Isaac had grown up, God commanded Abraham to offer him as a sacrifice. Yet when Abraham placed his only son on God’s altar and raised his knife ready to slay the boy, God stopped him. In fact, not only did God stop Abraham from sacrificing Isaac, He also lavished Abraham with great blessings and made his descendants into a great nation.
