He's My Only Son

The Promised Child

He's My Only Son (Stars of the Promise)

[Verse 1 – Abraham’s Call] He’s my only son, the light of my days Born of a promise, not earthly ways, But the Lord has spoken—so here I stand On this mountain high, with trembling hands

[Verse 2 – Isaac’s Innocence] Father, I see the wood and the flame But where is the lamb to be slain in His name? You whisper “The Lord will provide,” and believe, that God does know what’s best for me.

[Chorus – Shared Faith] He’s my only son, yet I still believe In the love of God, in the plans conceived From one small seed, the stars will shine Each one a heartbeat of love divine

[Verse 3 – Heaven’s Mercy] A voice from the heavens cried “Do not harm” And there in the thicket—redemption’s ram The knife falls away, the tears finally stream God’s love breaks through like a gentle dream.

[Bridge – The Greater Love] As Abraham laid down his son in faith So God gave His own in redeeming grace One Son for all, the spotless Lamb His love for the world—who else but I AM?

[Final Chorus – Eternal Promise] He’s the only Son, sent from above Carried by mercy, anchored in love From faith like Abraham’s, hope begins Through stars uncounted, God's light still wins

[Outro – Children of the Promise] We are the stars, we carry His name Born from above, shaped through His love, Our hearts still sing, our faith still runs— With love that began in the only Son.

[Outro – Children of the Promise Today] We are the stars, still bearing His light Called to be faithful, to walk in what's right From Abraham’s trust to the cross and the Lamb— We live in the gift of the great I AM

In cities and silence, in joy and in tears His promise still echoes across all our years For He gave His Son—love’s purest embrace So we shine today by amazing grace

🌿 A Father, A Son, and A Lamb: A Devotional Story Inspired by Genesis 22 & John 3:16

---

God’s deep love and plan for redemption through Jesus.

Abraham and Isaac walked together beneath the quiet sky. The wind whispered through the trees, and the boy carried wood for the fire. He looked up at his father and asked, “Where is the lamb?” Abraham's heart trembled. He didn’t fully understand what God was doing—but he trusted Him completely. “My son,” he said softly, “God will provide himself a lamb.” (Genesis 22:8, KJV)

Just like Isaac didn’t know what was coming, we don’t always understand God's plan. But one thing is clear: we’re all born with something broken inside—it's called sin. Sin isn’t just about doing something wrong; it’s about being separated from God. Every person, young and old, has sinned. Jesus knew this. That's why, whether He was talking to fishermen, children, or Pharisees, He never avoided the truth. He spoke with love—but He also spoke with clarity. He said we must turn away from our sin and believe.

That’s why Jesus came—He is the Lamb God provided for us. Just like the ram in the thicket saved Isaac from being sacrificed, Jesus saves us from the punishment our sin deserves. He didn’t deserve the cross, but He chose it because of His love for us. John 3:16 says it all: “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son…” That’s the heart of Abraham’s story—it shines forward into Jesus’ story, and now into ours.

When we admit our sin and believe in Jesus, something beautiful happens. He forgives us, washes our hearts clean, and makes us part of His forever family. It's not because we're good—but because He's good. And just like the stars God showed Abraham, too many to count, that’s how many hearts God longs to reach.

Today, you may feel far from God, or unsure what comes next. But the same God who met Abraham on the mountain is reaching for you now. He provided a lamb for Abraham—and He provided Jesus for you. That’s how much He loves you.

The question now is this: will you trust Him? He’s waiting with love, forgiveness, and forever hope. And when you walk with Him, the journey—like Abraham’s—is never alone.
