When Abraham stood on Mount Moriah, his heart must have been heavy. He had been asked to sacrifice his beloved son, Isaac. Yet, in obedience, Abraham trusted God’s character even when he could not see the outcome. At the last moment, God provided a ram in place of Isaac. It was there that Abraham declared God’s name: Jehovah Jireh—“The Lord will provide.” In Genesis 22:14 the Bible says, “Abraham called the name of that place The Lord Will Provide, as it is said to this day, “In the mount of the Lord it will be provided.”

This story reminds us that God not only sees our needs but also goes ahead of us to meet them in His timing and His way. His provision may not look like what we expect, but it always flows from His wisdom and His love. Ultimately, His greatest provision was not a ram on the mountain but His own Son, Jesus Christ, given for our salvation.

When we face seasons of uncertainty, financial struggles, health challenges, or emotional burdens we can hold fast to the truth that our God is Jehovah Jireh. He knows what we need before we ask. Instead of letting worry consume us, we can surrender our concerns to Him, trusting that He is both aware and able to provide.

Today, take a moment to name a specific area where you are tempted to fear or lack. Pray and place it in the hands of Jehovah Jireh, believing that He will provide, not always what you want, but always what you need. Romans 8:32 says, “He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him over for us all, how will He not also with Him freely give us all things?”
