Three Days to Moriah David Tubbs

God was not surprised by the sudden acceptance of His proposal. He knew that Abraham would no doubt say yes, but the true trial would be going through with the sacrifice. Seeing Abraham walk away abruptly prompted the Lord to get up as well to try and follow Abraham as he started to walk in any direction other then where he was, but God settled back to His seat noticing that Abraham was walking away for a reason. He wanted to be alone. Abraham answered the question out of haste and was immediately regretting the fact that he said he would do it. He had convinced himself that all he had to do was stall for time and sort out his thoughts. As Abraham walked away, staring in the white distance, his mind rolled over the same question over and over; how could I possibly do this? Coming to the conclusion that he had already agreed to the deed and that he could not deceive the one true God, Abraham put it out of his mind and decided to go along with the sacrifice until he could think of something to get him and Isaac out of harm?s way.
