1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,704 Hello and welcome to the Middletown Baptist Church Podcast, 2 00:00:03,832 --> 00:00:06,500 where we are proclaiming the truth to the world. 3 00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:10,712 In this podcast series, we're going to be looking into biblical 4 00:00:10,776 --> 00:00:14,140 words that have great significance to our faith. 5 00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:18,808 The name of this series is called the Word of the Week, where 6 00:00:18,864 --> 00:00:22,888 once a week we will dive deeper into these words that we are 7 00:00:22,944 --> 00:00:24,780 familiar with in Scripture. 8 00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:26,472 So come along with me. 9 00:00:26,576 --> 00:00:28,980 Let's study the Word of the Week. 10 00:00:30,010 --> 00:00:31,250 Pastor Josh here. 11 00:00:31,370 --> 00:00:33,506 For the next few weeks, we're going to be looking at the names 12 00:00:33,538 --> 00:00:35,670 of God in accordance to Scripture. 13 00:00:36,250 --> 00:00:38,850 The studies of the names of God is a very important study because 14 00:00:38,890 --> 00:00:41,458 it tells us about the character of God. 15 00:00:41,634 --> 00:00:44,722 And as we get to know God, as we grow in our understanding of him, 16 00:00:44,746 --> 00:00:49,026 it's important for us to grow in who he is and his character. 17 00:00:49,218 --> 00:00:51,746 And so the first name that we're going to be looking at here 18 00:00:51,818 --> 00:00:55,350 this week is the name Jehovah Jireh. 19 00:00:56,100 --> 00:00:58,972 So we're gonna look at what Jehovah Jireh means and where we 20 00:00:58,996 --> 00:01:01,280 can find that name in Scripture. 21 00:01:01,700 --> 00:01:06,800 Jehovah Jireh means the Lord will provide or the Lord who provides. 22 00:01:07,220 --> 00:01:10,876 And so the idea for that would be that God is the great provider. 23 00:01:10,908 --> 00:01:12,940 He's perfect in his provision. 24 00:01:13,100 --> 00:01:15,772 He provides all that we need. 25 00:01:15,956 --> 00:01:19,964 And the story of the name Jehovah Jireh can be found in Genesis, 26 00:01:20,012 --> 00:01:21,320 chapter 22. 27 00:01:21,940 --> 00:01:28,000 It begins with the command from God to sacrifice Isaac. 28 00:01:28,420 --> 00:01:29,880 Abraham is there. 29 00:01:30,260 --> 00:01:35,820 And Abraham is a man of obedience, though he failed in many 30 00:01:35,860 --> 00:01:38,684 ways leading up to the birth of his son, Isaac. 31 00:01:38,732 --> 00:01:40,236 Isaac is the son of promise. 32 00:01:40,268 --> 00:01:41,324 He is the son of faith. 33 00:01:41,372 --> 00:01:47,558 And prior to Isaac being born, God had promised a great seed to 34 00:01:47,724 --> 00:01:50,466 Abraham and it would be found in a son. 35 00:01:50,658 --> 00:01:55,922 But Abraham tried to follow in his own way to get God to bless his 36 00:01:55,946 --> 00:02:00,082 actions instead of obeying God and being patient in God's provisions. 37 00:02:00,226 --> 00:02:05,538 And so we see that he reached out and had a child with his wife's 38 00:02:05,714 --> 00:02:07,426 handmaid, Hagar. 39 00:02:07,538 --> 00:02:11,042 And through that, we see that there was great pain and sin on both 40 00:02:11,066 --> 00:02:12,904 sides with Abraham and Sarah. 41 00:02:13,082 --> 00:02:17,276 But nonetheless, later on in time, Abraham is commanded by God 42 00:02:17,308 --> 00:02:19,772 to sacrifice his son Isaac, which doesn't make a lot of sense. 43 00:02:19,836 --> 00:02:21,276 It doesn't make any sense. 44 00:02:21,468 --> 00:02:22,588 But Abraham obeys. 45 00:02:22,604 --> 00:02:26,956 He packs up all the things that he needs for the sacrifice. 46 00:02:27,148 --> 00:02:28,652 The wood, the knife. 47 00:02:28,716 --> 00:02:32,156 And In Genesis, chapter 22, they're. 48 00:02:32,188 --> 00:02:32,956 They're traveling. 49 00:02:32,988 --> 00:02:39,782 And Isaac recognizes that they have everything that they need except 50 00:02:39,846 --> 00:02:40,850 for the. 51 00:02:41,230 --> 00:02:43,670 The sacrificial animal, right? 52 00:02:43,710 --> 00:02:44,490 The lamb. 53 00:02:44,910 --> 00:02:45,270 And. 54 00:02:45,310 --> 00:02:46,150 And so in. 55 00:02:46,190 --> 00:02:50,822 In that idea, Isaac is asking Abraham, well, what Are we going 56 00:02:50,846 --> 00:02:51,830 to sacrifice? 57 00:02:51,990 --> 00:02:57,526 Probably a difficult answer for Abraham to give to his son. 58 00:02:57,718 --> 00:03:01,542 But at that very moment, Abraham essentially said, well, you 59 00:03:01,566 --> 00:03:03,330 know what God is going to provide. 60 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:06,260 And, and that takes a lot of faith. 61 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:13,620 And so in the, in the case of Abraham and Isaac, we see that God 62 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:18,048 provides the sacrifice. 63 00:03:18,224 --> 00:03:21,472 Later on in the story, we know that Abraham follows through all 64 00:03:21,496 --> 00:03:25,888 the way up to the moment where he is going to sacrifice his son 65 00:03:25,904 --> 00:03:27,168 and God stops him. 66 00:03:27,304 --> 00:03:31,152 And then right after that, we know that God provides the sacrifice 67 00:03:31,216 --> 00:03:33,260 in the thicket there next to him. 68 00:03:33,740 --> 00:03:37,920 But I think it's so important to see in, in Genesis chapter 22, 69 00:03:39,020 --> 00:03:42,276 I believe it's verse number eight, Abraham said, My son, God 70 00:03:42,308 --> 00:03:44,820 will provide himself a lamb for the burnt offering. 71 00:03:44,980 --> 00:03:49,060 And so faith took action, faith took obedience, right? 72 00:03:49,180 --> 00:03:53,812 God understood that Abraham had said a lot of things in his life 73 00:03:53,836 --> 00:03:57,092 and God knew Abraham's heart, but Abraham didn't know what the 74 00:03:57,116 --> 00:03:58,212 outcome would be. 75 00:03:58,396 --> 00:04:02,752 And so for God, he knew the story, but for Abraham there, there 76 00:04:02,776 --> 00:04:05,728 wasn't clarity at the beginning, but he knew that God would 77 00:04:05,784 --> 00:04:08,432 in some way provide a sacrifice. 78 00:04:08,576 --> 00:04:11,408 And then if you look even further into the thought process 79 00:04:11,464 --> 00:04:15,792 of Abraham, we see in Hebrews chapter 11, which is a place called 80 00:04:15,816 --> 00:04:18,832 the hall of faith, Hebrews chapter 11, verse 19, it says in 81 00:04:18,856 --> 00:04:22,800 verse, verse 19, accounting that God was able to raise him up 82 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:26,762 even from the dead, meaning he, he understood that even if he 83 00:04:26,786 --> 00:04:30,890 went through with the sacrifice that God would, would bring 84 00:04:30,930 --> 00:04:31,914 it back to life. 85 00:04:32,082 --> 00:04:34,910 That's, that's a, an amazing type of faith. 86 00:04:35,650 --> 00:04:41,578 And so through that process we know that Abraham trusted God and 87 00:04:41,634 --> 00:04:43,946 God provided a sacrifice for him. 88 00:04:44,098 --> 00:04:49,162 And so the account of Abraham on Mount Moriah is, is a amazing 89 00:04:49,226 --> 00:04:55,048 illustration of faith that was proven by obedience. 90 00:04:55,224 --> 00:04:58,248 It was, it was, it was shown through his obedience. 91 00:04:58,344 --> 00:05:00,140 It was faith that acted. 92 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:05,480 And so through that we see God's grace see through that we see 93 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:06,620 God's provision. 94 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:12,952 And so Jehovah, Jehovah Jireh is, is not looking back on what God 95 00:05:13,016 --> 00:05:17,512 has done necessarily like the Lord, he, he provided for us in the 96 00:05:17,536 --> 00:05:21,300 past, but it's the Lord will provide. 97 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,952 And so another way to look at it would be like, I'm trusting in 98 00:05:24,976 --> 00:05:26,216 God to keep his word. 99 00:05:26,248 --> 00:05:30,152 And what he has said, just because he's kept his word in the 100 00:05:30,176 --> 00:05:33,672 past, that means he'll keep his word in the here and now and 101 00:05:33,696 --> 00:05:35,340 he will keep his word forever. 102 00:05:35,840 --> 00:05:38,968 But there's a bigger picture of the Lord's provision and it's 103 00:05:38,984 --> 00:05:44,344 not just in the material, but we, we know that as God provided 104 00:05:44,392 --> 00:05:45,864 a Sacrifice for Abraham. 105 00:05:45,912 --> 00:05:49,380 There he also provided a sacrifice for us. 106 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:54,184 Up on the hill of Mount Moriah, God provided a substitute 107 00:05:54,232 --> 00:05:55,340 for Isaac. 108 00:05:55,760 --> 00:06:00,984 And on another hill called Calvary, God provided another sacrifice 109 00:06:01,032 --> 00:06:01,736 for us. 110 00:06:01,888 --> 00:06:03,656 The perfect sacrifice. 111 00:06:03,848 --> 00:06:06,424 And I think it could be summarized in, in many passages of 112 00:06:06,432 --> 00:06:09,128 scripture, but the best one that I can think of is Romans, chapter 113 00:06:09,144 --> 00:06:09,960 8, verse 32. 114 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:14,656 It says that he, he spared not his own son, but delivered him up 115 00:06:14,728 --> 00:06:15,980 for us all. 116 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:20,992 How shall he not with him also freely give us all things meaning 117 00:06:21,136 --> 00:06:22,416 God is a provider. 118 00:06:22,448 --> 00:06:27,328 But he proved that he is the provider through providing for us 119 00:06:27,384 --> 00:06:29,376 the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. 120 00:06:29,528 --> 00:06:31,200 I mean, that's his proven love. 121 00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:33,200 Romans, chapter 5, verse 8. 122 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:35,920 But God commended or demonstrated his love towards us 123 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,700 in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. 124 00:06:39,380 --> 00:06:42,812 And so yes, the story of Abraham and Isaac and the provision 125 00:06:42,876 --> 00:06:46,640 there of the sacrifice is a beautiful story of a father and son 126 00:06:47,220 --> 00:06:53,260 and substitution and God's righteous provision. 127 00:06:53,420 --> 00:06:57,564 But the greatest story of provision would be the provision 128 00:06:57,692 --> 00:06:59,880 that was given to us in Jesus Christ. 129 00:07:00,500 --> 00:07:04,444 And so, just as Abraham said in faith that God would provide himself 130 00:07:04,492 --> 00:07:09,480 a lamb, maybe not even knowing the complete understanding of that, 131 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:14,824 as John the Baptist says in John, chapter 1, verse 28, Jesus 132 00:07:14,872 --> 00:07:17,576 comes down unto him and John says something amazing. 133 00:07:17,608 --> 00:07:21,752 He says, behold the lamb of God which taketh away the sin of 134 00:07:21,776 --> 00:07:22,500 the world. 135 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:26,888 And so the recognition there would be that, that Jesus is that 136 00:07:26,944 --> 00:07:28,860 once for all sacrifice. 137 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:32,792 Jesus is the one who came to pay the price for our sins. 138 00:07:32,856 --> 00:07:36,332 And so we could offer animals, and the Bible speaks in the book 139 00:07:36,356 --> 00:07:40,940 of Hebrews that the blood of animals doesn't completely give us 140 00:07:40,980 --> 00:07:45,212 that once for all sacrifice, but the one that was perfect, the 141 00:07:45,236 --> 00:07:49,900 one who knew no sin, he was the one that came and gave us the 142 00:07:49,940 --> 00:07:52,460 perfect sacrifice so that we could have life. 143 00:07:52,500 --> 00:07:54,600 And so that's the greatest provision of all. 144 00:07:54,900 --> 00:07:59,964 And so Jehovah Jireh, the God who will provide, he provided a sacrifice 145 00:08:00,012 --> 00:08:01,120 to save Isaac. 146 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:08,456 And that was just a way, a symbolic foreshadowing of the provision 147 00:08:08,488 --> 00:08:11,592 that he would send in his Son for salvation to all the world. 148 00:08:11,616 --> 00:08:14,700 For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son. 149 00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:19,272 So we look back at our lives and one might ask, what does that 150 00:08:19,296 --> 00:08:20,260 mean for me? 151 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:23,992 How, how can I claim that promise of God's provision in my 152 00:08:24,016 --> 00:08:24,200 life? 153 00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:27,272 Well, first and foremost, have you trusted in Jesus Christ as your 154 00:08:27,296 --> 00:08:27,576 Savior? 155 00:08:27,608 --> 00:08:32,384 If you have, he's provided for you life, he's provided for you forgiveness. 156 00:08:32,512 --> 00:08:35,072 He's provided for you an eternal destination to spend with 157 00:08:35,096 --> 00:08:35,920 him one day. 158 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:39,744 So with his provision comes his presence and with his presence 159 00:08:39,792 --> 00:08:40,576 comes his power. 160 00:08:40,648 --> 00:08:45,536 Because when we are saved in Christ, we have the Holy Spirit living 161 00:08:45,568 --> 00:08:46,000 within us. 162 00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:49,904 And so we have the same power that rose Jesus from the dead. 163 00:08:49,952 --> 00:08:52,304 Because by the way, there was the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, but 164 00:08:52,312 --> 00:08:57,834 the sacrifice was complete on the cross, as Jesus says, it is finished, 165 00:08:57,962 --> 00:09:01,626 but it was followed through with life when it came in the resurrection. 166 00:09:01,818 --> 00:09:04,282 And, and so the same power that rose Jesus from the dead, the 167 00:09:04,306 --> 00:09:06,122 Bible says, is the same power living with us. 168 00:09:06,146 --> 00:09:09,150 And so we have God's provision in salvation. 169 00:09:09,890 --> 00:09:13,706 But, but on top of that provision comes the power of God 170 00:09:13,738 --> 00:09:14,630 in our lives. 171 00:09:15,250 --> 00:09:18,458 And the only reason that we can have that power of God in our 172 00:09:18,514 --> 00:09:24,040 lives is because of the presence of God in us through the 173 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:26,100 Holy Spirit indwelling us. 174 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:29,288 So it's a beautiful thing to see God's provision through the power 175 00:09:29,344 --> 00:09:30,520 and through the presence. 176 00:09:30,680 --> 00:09:34,680 And, and so I think about the, the provisions of God and so many 177 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:37,960 times in our Christian walk we think of the provisions only being 178 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:38,504 the material. 179 00:09:38,552 --> 00:09:41,340 And in many ways God does provide for us materially. 180 00:09:41,680 --> 00:09:47,112 He provides for us finances, he provides for us our needs, our, 181 00:09:47,216 --> 00:09:51,896 our clothing, our vehicles, our homes, our food, our health. 182 00:09:51,968 --> 00:09:54,856 But those can fail us. 183 00:09:54,928 --> 00:09:58,232 You know, our, you know, God can give us finances, but yet, you 184 00:09:58,256 --> 00:10:01,720 know, finances will fail us, our health will fail us. 185 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:04,456 Now I'm not saying that these aren't great gifts. 186 00:10:04,488 --> 00:10:08,296 The Bible says in James 1:17, all, all these gifts are beautiful 187 00:10:08,328 --> 00:10:09,336 gifts and they come from God. 188 00:10:09,368 --> 00:10:11,896 So everything good that we have in our life comes from God. 189 00:10:12,088 --> 00:10:15,814 But it's an income, complete understanding of God's provision 190 00:10:15,862 --> 00:10:18,010 if we only think about the material. 191 00:10:18,430 --> 00:10:21,398 Because the deeper blessings would be the blessings of, of the 192 00:10:21,454 --> 00:10:25,622 spiritual nature, the blessing of peace, peace that passeth all 193 00:10:25,646 --> 00:10:26,374 understanding. 194 00:10:26,502 --> 00:10:28,890 The joy of the Lord is our strength. 195 00:10:30,190 --> 00:10:32,710 If you look at the fruit of the Spirit, I mean, all of those 196 00:10:32,750 --> 00:10:37,254 things are gifts, all of those elements of the transformation in 197 00:10:37,262 --> 00:10:38,570 our life is a gift. 198 00:10:39,560 --> 00:10:41,620 And so yes, our family is a gift. 199 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:48,224 Maybe your job, if you have one, your career is a gift, your, 200 00:10:48,392 --> 00:10:51,620 your, your friends are a gift, your church is a gift. 201 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:55,040 Whatever you have in your life that's good, we know that's from 202 00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:55,248 God. 203 00:10:55,264 --> 00:10:59,504 And so yes, God is the one who pours out abundant blessings on us. 204 00:10:59,672 --> 00:11:02,960 But we must go back to think about the greatest provision and 205 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:04,272 that is the provision of salvation. 206 00:11:04,336 --> 00:11:07,972 Because if we had nothing else, if we had no finances, our 207 00:11:07,996 --> 00:11:09,240 health was terrible. 208 00:11:09,820 --> 00:11:12,628 You know, maybe our friends and family had turned their backs 209 00:11:12,644 --> 00:11:13,012 against us. 210 00:11:13,036 --> 00:11:17,040 The Bible says that we have someone who is greater than all. 211 00:11:17,820 --> 00:11:20,532 We have a father to the fatherless. 212 00:11:20,596 --> 00:11:27,636 We have the one who has extended grace to those that don't 213 00:11:27,748 --> 00:11:28,720 deserve it. 214 00:11:29,340 --> 00:11:31,300 And so we look at it. 215 00:11:31,340 --> 00:11:33,268 The greatest provision is salvation. 216 00:11:33,364 --> 00:11:35,840 Everything else is a blessing on top of that. 217 00:11:36,140 --> 00:11:39,204 And so when we think about Jehovah Jireh, many times it's, you 218 00:11:39,212 --> 00:11:42,740 know, I, I need to pay a bill today and I don't have it. 219 00:11:42,780 --> 00:11:46,580 And God provides us the finances and, and that is certainly 220 00:11:46,660 --> 00:11:49,204 an element of Jehovah Jireh, God provided. 221 00:11:49,252 --> 00:11:52,724 But if you look at it from the bigger picture, God has provided 222 00:11:52,772 --> 00:11:57,652 all that we need and he is sufficient and he is wonderful and 223 00:11:57,676 --> 00:11:59,588 he is perfect in every way. 224 00:11:59,724 --> 00:12:03,406 And so one of the character elements of God would be his provisions. 225 00:12:03,438 --> 00:12:05,038 He always provides for his children. 226 00:12:05,094 --> 00:12:08,970 A good parent knows what to bring to his children. 227 00:12:09,270 --> 00:12:11,870 A good parent knows what his child needs. 228 00:12:11,990 --> 00:12:15,982 A good parent understands that if they have the resources, they 229 00:12:16,006 --> 00:12:16,970 will give it. 230 00:12:17,510 --> 00:12:20,510 But I will understand this, and I hope that you can understand 231 00:12:20,550 --> 00:12:21,342 it too. 232 00:12:21,526 --> 00:12:25,262 Though I try to be a loving father and provide everything I can 233 00:12:25,286 --> 00:12:27,054 for my children, I'm limited in my resources. 234 00:12:27,102 --> 00:12:31,304 But God, who, who is, the Bible says, who is rich in mercy 235 00:12:31,352 --> 00:12:34,072 has, has no limit to his resources. 236 00:12:34,136 --> 00:12:35,560 He has no limit to his love. 237 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:37,256 He has no limit to his provisions. 238 00:12:37,288 --> 00:12:41,240 And so God does the impossible by providing for us everything that 239 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:42,344 we've ever need. 240 00:12:42,512 --> 00:12:43,560 Philippians, chapter 4. 241 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:45,928 My God shall supply all your needs. 242 00:12:46,064 --> 00:12:49,544 What an amazing thing that is, that God will provide everything 243 00:12:49,632 --> 00:12:50,904 that we've ever needed. 244 00:12:50,952 --> 00:12:54,312 Not always what we want, though he does give us things that 245 00:12:54,336 --> 00:12:55,060 we want. 246 00:12:55,940 --> 00:13:00,748 He gives us those blessings, maybe even when we don't even expect 247 00:13:00,804 --> 00:13:01,164 it. 248 00:13:01,252 --> 00:13:06,732 And so we go full circle and go back to, go back to Abraham Faith, 249 00:13:06,796 --> 00:13:07,260 right? 250 00:13:07,380 --> 00:13:10,764 Believing not only that God did provide. 251 00:13:10,932 --> 00:13:12,012 That's easy to see. 252 00:13:12,116 --> 00:13:14,332 It's easy to go back and say, yep, he did this, he did this, he 253 00:13:14,356 --> 00:13:14,844 did this. 254 00:13:14,932 --> 00:13:15,468 Wonderful. 255 00:13:15,564 --> 00:13:22,310 Remember that and use that as fuel for your belief in the future. 256 00:13:22,930 --> 00:13:26,058 The Lord will provide Jehovah Jireh. 257 00:13:26,154 --> 00:13:26,790 Right. 258 00:13:27,570 --> 00:13:29,706 So whatever you're facing tomorrow, whatever you're facing 259 00:13:29,738 --> 00:13:32,602 today, whatever you're facing next week, God will provide. 260 00:13:32,706 --> 00:13:34,426 He will give you the grace needed. 261 00:13:34,538 --> 00:13:36,394 He will give you the forgiveness needed. 262 00:13:36,522 --> 00:13:39,870 He will give you the strength in, in his presence. 263 00:13:40,290 --> 00:13:41,818 And that's an exciting thing. 264 00:13:41,874 --> 00:13:43,722 Jehovah Jireh. 265 00:13:43,866 --> 00:13:47,144 So if I, I, I can challenge you with something here this week. 266 00:13:47,322 --> 00:13:52,572 Meditate upon what it means for God to be Jehovah Jireh in you. 267 00:13:52,756 --> 00:13:54,396 First and foremost, salvation. 268 00:13:54,588 --> 00:13:56,956 Secondly, the spiritual blessings. 269 00:13:57,148 --> 00:13:59,960 Then of course, God providing your needs in every way. 270 00:14:00,500 --> 00:14:02,508 And so I hope that that's something that can encourage you 271 00:14:02,564 --> 00:14:03,532 here this week. 272 00:14:03,636 --> 00:14:06,044 Next week we'll come back and look at another Name of God. 273 00:14:06,172 --> 00:14:09,100 I think it'll be an amazing study as we look at the different 274 00:14:09,140 --> 00:14:13,632 elements of his character, the different elements of his love for 275 00:14:13,656 --> 00:14:15,088 us, the different elements He. 276 00:14:15,144 --> 00:14:22,608 He's so grand, infinitely amazing that we can't mind the depths 277 00:14:22,624 --> 00:14:25,168 of his goodness, we can't mind the depths of his power. 278 00:14:25,304 --> 00:14:28,112 But we can do our best by looking at these names given to us 279 00:14:28,136 --> 00:14:28,624 in scripture. 280 00:14:28,672 --> 00:14:34,496 So Genesis chapter 22, if you want to reference this name, it's 281 00:14:34,528 --> 00:14:36,512 a Genesis chapter 22. 282 00:14:36,696 --> 00:14:43,180 And you can go back and look at how God is Jehovah Jireh to Abraham 283 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:48,088 and he's Jehovah Jireh to you as well. 284 00:14:48,144 --> 00:14:50,056 Genesis chapter 22, verse 14. 285 00:14:50,128 --> 00:14:52,664 The Lord will provide. 286 00:14:52,832 --> 00:14:53,608 And that is true. 287 00:14:53,624 --> 00:14:55,060 He will provide for us. 288 00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:58,200 And so I hope that you have a wonderful rest of your week. 289 00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:00,616 We will talk to you next week when we come back with another Word 290 00:15:00,648 --> 00:15:01,272 of the Week. 291
