Do you have an Issac?
A birth God has promised, A creation that you love, Hope for the future, Sent from above. Waiting can take forever, When declarations are made. Not knowing all the pieces Can cause trust to wane. Without patient endurance We often act too fast, Faith is more than needed For promises to pass. If Hope runs dry And your faith begins to dip Be careful not to substitute To try to make things fit! Taking random short cuts To accelerate Gods plan Spawns Jealousy and sorrow And affliction in the land. Ishmaels are made When we try to force God’s hand Laughing at God, He will not stand! Do you have an Issac? A birth God has promised, A creation that you love. Hope for the future, Sent from above. When you look to heaven And see all of the stars Do you feel so small, Like it’s not even in the cards. When He promises offspring from your barrenness Will you believe He’s the God of faithfulness? When your business has succeeded And money is flooding in, When your fame is thunderous And people are crowding in, When the fruit of your labor Has caused your ministry to grow, Will you hold onto possession And become a one man show? Whats “mine is mine is mine” Its our sinful way, What’s “mine is mine is mine” It leads to our decay. Do you have an Issac? A birth God has promised, A creation that you love, Hope for the future, Sent from above. When you have invested All of your time and energy Into the plan you thought was meant to be, What will you do? When God says “Give it all back to me?” Will you bow down and submit to His authority? When your child is rebellious Or A friend has gone astray Will you hold on tighter, And try to save the day; Will you hold on tightly, When Issac is in your midst? Are you willing to sacrifice the one that you love best? Hands wide open It’s the worship that He knows Hands wide open It’s fragrance to His nose Hands wide open Its the ultimate sacrifice. Hands wide open It time to let go When we give up Issac Is when our faith will grow.
