'God will provide, my son.' Abraham said br as poor Isaac to the altar was led br and there standing before them stood a ram. br God's merciful provision for Abraham. br br For God’s only Son, the Lord Jesus Christ br arranged with His Father to be sacrificed. br He would carry out the plan they agreed br and the price would be paid by Abraham’s Seed. br br His death on the cross was the only way br and there’d be no reprieve for Him that day. br So up the hill of Golgotha He went br and for our sin His life was to be spent br br No substitute was provided for Him br when as The Lamb of God He bore our sin. br And we can look up and see taking place br God's merciful provision for the Human Race.
