It is in the first book of the Bible that we are talking about God's promises to Abraham. In Genesis 11we are introduced to the person of Abraham, he was Abram at the time. During this introduction, we see that he set out with his father Terah, his wife Sarai (who would become Sarah), and his nephew Lot. Leaving from Ur of the Chaldeans they set ou...
Like I said that was a big ask. Yet there are some things to know about God’s promise to Abraham that can be an encouragement to you and me today.
After asking him to leave the first thing God did was to tell Abraham he would make him into a great nation. This didn’t make sense, as Abraham was 75 years old and Sarah was not only past the childbearing years, she couldn’t have children when she was in those childbearing years. This is one reason that demonstrates how much faith Abraham had. He ...
There is a simple truth to the blessing of God on Abraham’s life. God blessed him so that he could bless others. This truth is not just for Abraham it is true for you and me as well. When God blesses he never intends for it to be kept to yourself. That goes against God’s character. God takes from his best and shares it with you. He expects you to d...
In verse 3, here is God’s promise to Abraham, "I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse." Most of the time this promise is viewed in relationship to Israel and rightfully so. But I want to add another thought to this promise because this promise has a greater reach than just Israel.

Of all the things to know about God’s promise to Abraham, this one was probably the hardest to execute. How would it be possible that all the nations of the earth would be blessed because of Abraham? Remember this is an eternal promise because God did not put an expiration date on it. The fulfillment of this promise is not in Abraham himself or the...
The last thing I want you to know about God’s promise to Abraham is that it was dependent on God to bring it to pass, not Abraham. Here is what God promised to do. -I will show you where to go. -I will make you into a great nation. -I will bless you. -I will make your name great. -I will make you a blessing to others. -I will bless those who bless ...
The LORD God of heaven, which took me from my father's house, and from the land of my kindred, and which spake unto me, and that sware unto me, saying, Unto thy seed will I give this land; he shall send his angel before thee, and thou shalt take a wife unto my son from thence.
Jan 14, 2024 · God promised Abraham that he would have a son even though he and Sarah were very old and she was barren. Against all odds, Sarah miraculously conceived and gave birth to Isaac when Abraham was 100 years old (Genesis 21:1-7).
Jan 4, 2022 · The same promise is reiterated in Genesis 22 when Abraham was ready to obey God’s command to sacrifice Isaac, his promised son. God stopped him from harming Isaac and told him that his offspring would be as numerous as “the stars of heaven and as the sand that is on the seashore” (verse 17).
He did not immediately give Abraham the son that He promised. He waited until it was “too late,” humanly speaking, so that it would be apparent this son was a gift of God. He did not give Abraham instant, fully developed faith.
