In this episode of Don’t Miss This, Dave Butler and Grace Freeman continue Abraham’s story in Genesis 18–23 and watch the promises of God begin to unfold in real and messy ways. From radical hospitality to wilderness rescues, these chapters reveal a God who shows up, pursues, and provides.
The lesson begins with Abraham running to welcome divine visitors on an ordinary afternoon, reminding us that the Lord appears in everyday moments and that we choose how fully we invite Him in. Placed beside it is Lot’s story, where lingering and looking back contrast with Abraham’s trust. Yet even there, the rescue continues. In houses of sin and cities on the brink, God still calls, “Escape,” revealing a heart determined to save.
Genesis 21 and 22 then place two powerful stories side by side. In the wilderness, Hagar discovers the God who sees and provides a well where she least expects it. On Mount Moriah, Abraham and Isaac walk together toward a sacrifice, and the Lord provides a ram, foreshadowing the Lamb who would come later. In both stories, we see the same truth: whether in personal wilderness or eternal need, Jehovah Jireh is the God who provides.
These chapters invite us to remember the mountains in our own lives where the Lord has seen us and supplied what we needed. He is the God who comes unto us, who rescues, and who provides, again and again.
