And you're like sad.

I hear this.

I'm not sick.

I promise.

I just need a tissue.

Thank you, Noah.

Appreciate that.

All right.

Here we go.

All right.

Nobody's going to shake my hand after working out of you.

And you know, this is amazing.

Okay.

What is the word?

This is no, this is like the climatic of Abraham's wife chapter.

22 is, is it all comes to a pinnacle everything that God has been doing in this man's life, as we've been studying, and look quite so much.

So that even in this chapter, we realized very quickly that we are we are beginning that apologue of the end of his life and beginning to look today, The Narrative of the life of Isaac and his wonderful transition, but if we come to this, where we're looking at everything, just coming to a point.

I don't think about what God has done and Abraham Journey up.

Until this point.

I mean, we've been journeying with Name for for several months.

At Abraham is called being the father, and if you haven't seen it, you will see it today, but it has become we realized from the very beginning back in Genesis 12, There's A God Called Abraham, and he called Abraham to leave something behind.

The weirdest Family, his land and everything, who you to give up the past.

Are you God may be calling some of you today to give up the past?

And that's hard, isn't it was hard for Abraham.

We saw he would hold onto different things.

We are seeing consumed orally Faithfully with God that Abraham is serving and how say, for God is even even when Abraham has not That I don't know about you but that encourages me that we have a faithful God that way.

And looks look at this is when you look through this, God has blessed us all that from the very beginning, and God has been faithful with his blessings and kept his promise.

Is God has been with him?

He has gone ahead of Abraham.

He is wiped out enemies.

We have seen how this God has dealt with evil.

That is around Abraham.

Andrew Burnham, has experienced all of this.

He has seen this type of this God that he serves.

I mean, it's a wonderful thing and you think about where he's come from and then you, you look at his life and even in his old age.

His faithful to his promise and brings the son of Promise, Isaac.

Even though Abraham made his mistakes and send and doubted.

God was faithful.

God has been faithful.

To give this man.

Abraham rest.

In the land that he promised to him.

He is blessed abundantly.

And richly as Abraham is sojourn in this long.

And his first one stage of chapter 22, it says.

Now I came about after these things.

After these things.

Comes chapter 22 after these things.

God is going to test Abraham, like, what?

Is he been doing up this time preparing?

And I wonder what that is preparing you for.

I wonder what God is preparing me for but it was after these things that we see.

Chapter 22.

Remember with me back to

Chapter 12.

First one, God says, now the Lord said to Abram go from your country and from your relatives and from your father's house to the land, which I will show you.

God is calling Abraham to give up.

And as we begin chapter 22, as we look at this, God is asking Abraham.

To give up his future.

Are you willing to give God your past?

Are you willing to give God your future?

Join me in Reading.

As we look at chapter 22.

I'm going to read the first 19 verses about after these things that God tested Abraham and said to him Abraham.

And he said your I am he said, take now your son your only son whom you love.

I see and go to the land of Moriah and offer him there as a burnt offering, a one of the mountains of which I will tell you.

So, Abraham Rose early.

Rose early in the morning and settled his donkey and took two of his young men with him and Isaac his son and you split the wood for the burnt offering and a rose and went to the place.

So which got it sold him on the third day Abraham raises.

I saw the place from a distance Abraham said to his young men stay here with the donkey and I am a lad will go over there.

And we will worship and return to you.

Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering and laid it on.

His son, and he took in his hand, the fire and the night.

So what's your name W on together?

Isaac spoke to Abraham his father and said, my father.

You said here?

I am my son.

You said, behold the fire and the wood?

Where is the Lamb for the burnt offering?

Abraham said God will provide for himself, the land for the burnt offering my son.

So the two of them walked on together, then they came to the place of which God is an Abraham guilty.

Also there and Rings the wood and bound his son, Isaac and laid him on the altar on top of the wood, Abraham stretch out his hand and took the knife to slay his son, but the angel Lord called to him from heaven.

I get your attention, huh?

And he said, here I am.

You said do not stretch out your hand against the lab and do nothing to him for.

Now.

I know that you fear God, since you have not withheld, your son, your only son from me.

Then Abraham raised his eyes and looked and behold behind him.

A ram caught in the thicket by his born in Abraham, went and took the reins and offered him up as a prince offering in place of his son.

Abraham called the name of the place, the Lord will provide.

As it is said to this day, the Mounds of the board.

It will be provided when the angel of the Lord called the Abraham.

The second time from heaven and said by myself.

I've sworn declares the Lord because you have done this thing on them, not withheld, your son, your only son.

Indeed.

I will greatly blessed you and I will greatly multiply your seed as the stars of the heavens and his ass and which is on the seashore and your seed shall possess the Gate of your enemies in your seed.

All the nations of the Earth shall be blessed because you have obeyed, my voice will Abraham return to his young men and they are rose and went together to Beersheba and Abraham lived in their sheep.

I would also like to encourage you to turn to Hebrews chapter 11.

As we see the perspective from the other side of the cross.
