Victorious Surrender
It’s inevitable. If you are a child of His, God will ask for your surrender. It could be a dream, a hope, a vice, a relationship or your life. Pastor Doug uses the story of God asking Abraham to sacrifice his only son Isaac to teach us what true surrender looks like and why it is so important to our relationship with our savior.

Roots - Isaac: A Sacrifice
This week we talk about how Abraham is told to sacrifice Isaac on Mt. Moriah. It's a difficult and agonizing piece of scripture but crucial to understanding the process for how God provides in times of need. It also ultimately foreshadows how God will fulfill his promise by sending Jesus Christ as the sacrifice.

Abraham and Isaac - Faithful Obedience
Genesis 22:1-19 It is hard enough for children to obey simple commands, but as they grow, they will learn to obey much more complex commands. Have you learned to follow commands? Even those that don't make sense? Did your training stop when you became an adult, or are you a good and obedient child to your heavenly Father? Tonight Pastor Tyson teaches from Genesis chapter 22 about the faithful obedience of Abraham. We see that Abraham demonstrated immediate, complete, and joyful obedience. But, this event had far deeper meaning than the faithfulness of one of God's servant's, it is a story of redemption, substitution, and salvation. It is a forshadowing of the faithful obedience of Jesus Christ, God's only begotten Son, as our Holy sacrifice. These verses in Genesis demonstrate five characteristics of faithful obedience. Our obedience must be: 1. immediate (v. 3) 2. enduring (vv. 4-8) 3. complete (v. 9) 4. dependant (v. 13) and 5. your obedience will be rewarded (vv. 16-19) Although obedience doesn't come easy, it is easier than disobedience because the cost is much greater. May we all experience the extreme and wonderful blessings that come with joyful obedience to the Lord!
