When God Tests Your Yes: The Obedience of Abraham & The Cost of Trust

In this episode of Healing in His Hands, we walk through Genesis 22 — the moment Abraham was tested in a way that didn’t make sense.God asked him to lay down the very promise He had given him.And Abraham said yes.Not because it was easy.Not because it was painless.But because he trusted the voice of God more than he trusted his understanding.As I reflected on Abraham’s obedience, I couldn’t help but see my own journey.When God called me to Humboldt County, it felt like a sacrifice.Leaving comfort. Leaving familiarity.Walking into the unknown.I didn’t know what would unfold.I didn’t know the grief I would walk through.I didn’t know how much surrender it would require.But obedience always precedes provision.Genesis 22 reminds us: • Tests are not punishments, they are invitations to trust. • What feels like loss may actually be positioning. • God will never ask for something without already preparing a ram in the bush.If you are in a season where God is stretching your faith…If obedience feels costly…If you’re wondering whether it’s worth it…This episode is for you.Because sometimes the greatest blessing is waiting on the other side of your “yes.”🎧 Now streaming on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music, and available with video on YouTube.
