What does it mean when God makes a promise? God made a pretty big promise to Abraham and maybe the more surprising thing is that Abraham believed God even though the circumstances around him would’ve told him otherwise. Explore what a covenant is and its significance in the story of God, could also reference Romans 4:18-22 (against all hope Abraham in hop believed). This covenant sets up something important for us, we are people living under a promise and we can trust that God fulfills his promises to us. How can we find a renewal of that faith and trust in our own lives?
