God seemingly asked Abraham to sacrifice his son to Him. Abraham trusted that God knew best and just as he was about to kill Isaac, God sent a ram for him to sacrifice instead. Abraham proved his faith by not questioning what was asked of him.
The account of Abraham's testing is recorded in Genesis ch.22, in the first two verses of the chapter it says "And it came to pass after these things, that God did tempt [test] Abraham, and said unto him, Abraham: and he said, Behold, here I am. And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of." Abraham's faith was tried with the ultimate test, and it goes much further then killing his only child to offer him as a sacrifice, as if it's not bad enough, but Isaac was the son of the promise, it is through Isaac that God has promised to make a great nation that will possess the promised land from Nile to Euphrates (Genesis 15:18, 21:12) And that meant everything to Abraham, who left his country, his kindred and his father's house to follow God into a place he didn't know, and lived as a vagabond and a pilgrim in tents for the rest of his life (Genesis 12:1-3, Hebrews 11:8-9) for a promise that was to be fulfilled in his seed after him. To sum it up, Abraham has already given up his life for a promise, and then is asked to give up the promise for God. Despite all that, Abraham believed in God, and did as he was told, and as a result he not only got his son Isaac back safe and sound, but has obtained another blessing (Genesis 22:18, Galatians 3:16) And almost two thousand years later, another Father offered His Son as an offering, on the very same hill (I believe) to die for the sins of the children of Abraham, and also for all mankind so that in Him (Abraham's seed) all the nations of the earth are blessed. Genesis 22:18 "And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice."
Abraham was tested and showed his faith many times.

Abraham
Faith, followed by obedience.
Job
The moral of the story is that God provides. God demands true worship and obedience, and tested that to the utmost by taking Abraham's most treasured possession, at least so it seemed. But, God stopped Abraham from sacrificing his son, and provided a proper sacrifice. Abraham was justified before God for his faith in the God that provides.
The faith according to the story of Abraham offering Isaac is that Isaac was the only son to Abraham who was already old.
Abraham listened to god and did everything in faith only, even the sacrifice of Isac.
