Through it all, He Provides! Our God is Jehovah Jireh, Hebrew for “The Lord Will Provide.” In Genesis 22, God instructs Abraham to take his son, his only son, Isaac, and offer him on the top of a mountain as a sacrifice. Just as Abraham is about to commit the unthinkable, an angel of the Lord calls out to him and commands him not to lay a hand on his son. In turn, the Lord provides a ram for Abraham to sacrifice as a burnt offering in Isaac’s place, naming the mountaintop, Jehovah Jireh. All of Scripture and history tell the story of the God who provides for His people.
This story brings to mind a precious little boy in our LAMB family named Eliseo. Eliseo came to LAMB as a toddler through the daycare in Flor del Campo. The LAMB Board first met him in March of 2025 at a home visit during their annual trip to Honduras. While visiting his humble home, they met his grandmother, who was undergoing kidney dialysis, and his young, single mother. With deep love and courage, Eliseo’s mother asked if we would bring her son into our Children’s Home, hoping and believing he would be more fully cared for, nourished, and protected there. However, at the time, Honduran social services would not grant her request. After months of prayer, crying out for the Lord to make a way, in His perfect timing, our prayers were answered! Eliseo’s mom’s hope to give her son a better life was fulfilled! Now, Eliseo is safe, supported, and thriving both at the Children’s Home and at JOY Christian Academy. Praise be to the One who provides, through it all!
