(Gen 22:9-12 TLB) “When they arrived at the place where God had told Abraham to go, he built an altar and placed the wood in order, ready for the fire, and then tied Isaac and laid him on the altar over the wood. 10 And Abraham took the knife and lifted it up to plunge it into his son, to slay him. 11 At that moment the Angel of God shouted to him from heaven, “Abraham! Abraham!” “Yes, Lord!” he answered. 12 “Lay down the knife; don’t hurt the lad in any way,” the Angel said, “for I know that God is first in your life—you have not withheld even your beloved son from me.” 13 Then Abraham noticed a ram caught by its horns in a bush. So he took the ram and sacrificed it, instead of his son, as a burnt offering on the altar.”
This was the most powerful altar, of all the altars built by Abraham. It was the altar he raised, to offer his one and beloved son Isaac, to the Lord as on offering. Even God’s response showed, that this altar represents the highest demonstration of Abraham’s affection for Him. Although, Abraham loves Isaac having waited for him for twenty-five years. But, he was willing to place on the altar the child he loves, to worship the God he loves more than any other. The angel said to Abraham “… for I know that God is first in your life- you have not withheld even your beloved son from me”.
The altar of affection started speaking for Abraham. Provision came for him, where he least imagined. God swore to bless Abraham beyond his imagination. When the altar of affection is speaking in the life of a man, people will willingly offer him, what he did not ask for, and his request is granted without reservation. We shall be engaging the altar of affection for the month of March 2022, that the altar of affection shall prevail in all our activities in 2022, in Jesus’ name.
