Genesis 15 Sermons »    

¹ God's Covenant With Abram

¹ After this, the word of the Lord came to Abram in a vision: ¹ "Do not be afraid, Abram. ¹ I am your shield,^{[a] 1} your very great reward.^[b]+t +u"

² But Abram said, "O Sovereign Lord, what can you give me since I remain childless and the one who will inherit^[c] my estate is Eliezer of Damascus?" ³ And Abram said, "You have given me no children; so a servant in my household will be my heir."

⁴ Then the word of the Lord came to him: "This man will not be your heir, but a son coming from your own body will be your heir." ⁵ He took him outside and said, "Look up at the heavens and count the stars—if indeed you can count them." Then he said to him, "So shall your offspring be."

⁶ Abram believed the Lord, and he credited it to him as righteousness.
