The Ram in the Thicket

from Rooted By The Water - Real Talk · host Mark and Michell Upmeyer

Abraham. Isaac. A knife raised. A ram in the thicket.In this episode we climb Mount Moriah and discover how Genesis 22 is a powerful preview of the Cross. We unpack the ram as a substitute, the meaning of Jehovah Jireh, and how Isaac carrying the wood points straight to Jesus carrying His Cross.If you’re tired of trying to “be enough” for God, this conversation will remind you: God Himself has already provided the sacrifice—and the bill is paid in full.
