In Genesis 15 we celebrate Abram’s faith and God’s making of the covenant with him. He is doing so well, only to fall once again in weakness of faith. How? Sarah concocts a plan to “help” God fulfill His promises and creates massive problems for the family and the descendants of Abraham unto this day.
After returning from the Battle of the Kings, God appears to Abram in a vision and restates His covenant. He later confirms that covenant with a visual ratification.
After Abram returns from the battle of the kings, God appears to him in a vision and reaffirms His promise of a seed and many descendants. Abram believes God and his faith (belief in God’s promise) is counted as righteousness.
After Lot departs from Abram, there is a war of the kings in the Transjordanian area. Lot is captured and Abram is determined to save him. What will become of the promise (seed)? That is, what happens if Abram dies in battle? What does this say to the future descendants of Abraham?
