Here Comes the Bride

God is Sovereign
May 26, 2024 • Lorenzo Elizondo • Genesis 25:19–26
There is nothing in this world can thwart the sovereign work of God. This means that in our accomplishments, failures, struggles, and success are all part of God’s plan. This is made clear throughout the entire Bible and is put on full display in the birth of Isaac. Our prayer should be to rest in God’s sovereign hand in our life rather than resist it when things get difficult.
This is Only a Test
May 5, 2024 • Lorenzo Elizondo • Genesis 22
Abraham faced one of the most difficult tests recorded in the Bible. His example is important for us and emphasizes the importance of trials in strengthening our faith and character. Through Abraham's willingness to sacrifice his son and God's provision of a ram, we see the significance of faithful obedience, foreshadowing Jesus' sacrifice on the cross.
