God Calls Abram & Sarai

In the Book of Genesis God made three vows to Abram: Protection, Children and Land.

• How old was Abram when God directed him to move to Cannan?
  
• What two things did God ask Abram to count as an illustration of many descendants?
• Once Abram accepted God’s Covenant his name changed as did his wife’s, Sarai. Give their new names and a reason for the change.
  

 

• God commanded Abram and Sarai to name their son Isaac.Who did Isaac marry?
• Isaac had two sons, Esau and Jacob.How many sons did Jacob have?
• God changed Jacob’s name to Israel.What does ‘Israel’ mean?

 
Abram and Sarai’s story is about a leap of Faith.  Faith in God and belief that God’s will is best.  God’s covenant with Abram is fulfilled in the New Covenant of Jesus Christ.
