EVERLASTING POSSESSION / GENESIS 17:8

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Genesis 17:8

And I will give unto thee, and to thy seed after thee, the land wherein thou art a stranger, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and I will be their God.

EVERLASTING POSSESSION / GENESIS 17:8

God promised to give Abraham and His biological descendants the land of Canaan (Genesis 12:7; Genesis 13:15; 15:7, 18-21). The covenant was “everlasting” from God’s point of view. It could be broken only by Abraham’s descendants (Isaiah 24:5; Jeremiah 31:32), meaning that their obedience to God was the condition upon which they would receive possession of the promised land (Genesis 17:1; Genesis 17:9).

TO BE YOUR GOD / GENESIS 17:6-7

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Genesis 17:6-7

And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee. 7 And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee.

TO BE YOUR GOD / GENESIS 17:6-7

At the heart of God’s covenant with Abraham was God giving Himself to Abraham and his descendants (Genesis 17:7-8). God’s promise “to be your God” is perhaps the greatest promise in Scripture. All other promises rest upon this one. It means that God fully obligates and commits Himself to lead, protect and reward those who are faithful to Him (Genesis 15:1). It also means that God lovingly offers us grace, forgiveness, guidance, goodness, help and blessing (Jeremiah 11:4; 24:7; 30:22; 32:38; Ezekiel 11:20; 36:28; Zechariah 8:8). All Christians inherit this same promise through faith in Christ (Galatians 3:16).

MY COVENANT / GENESIS 17:2

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Genesis 17:2  

And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly.

MY COVENANT / GENESIS 17:2

Part of the covenant God had already made with Abram was to give him the promised land (Genesis 15). God renewed that promise by telling Abram that many nations and kings would be among his descendants (Genesis 17:6, 15, 16) and that the Lord would be their God. He also promised that Sarai would have the son through whom these nations and kings would come (Genesis 17:15-16). Abram and his descendants would see these promises fulfilled if they stayed true to God and kept the requirements of the covenant (Genesis 17:9-14; Genesis 15:6).

NINETY-NINE YEARS OLD / GENESIS 17:1

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Genesis 17:1

And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the Lord appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect.

NINETY-NINE YEARS OLD / GENESIS 17:1

Abram was now ninety-nine years old, and Sarai was long past the age of having children. But thirteen years after Ishmael’s birth and twenty-four years after God’s original promise, the Lord appeared to Abram with a message and a demand.

  1. God revealed Himself as “God Almighty” (Hebrew El Shaddai), meaning that He was all-powerful and that nothing was impossible with Him. As God Almighty, He could fulfill His promises even when there seemed to be no natural way to fulfill them. Therefore, God would bring Abram’s promised son into the world by a miracle (Genesis 17:15-19; 35:11; Isaiah 13:6; Romans 4:19; Hebrews 11:12).
  2. God demanded that Abram follow Him and be “blameless” (completely dedicated to doing God’s will). Just as Abram needed faith to receive God’s covenant, he also had to make a sincere effort to please God in order for the covenant blessings to continue (Genesis 22:16-18). In other words, Abram had to prove his faith by obeying God (Romans 1:5) or he would disqualify himself from being a part of God’s eternal purposes. God’s promises and miracles will be fulfilled only when His people are completely dedicated to living as He desires and committed to following His plan (Genesis 5:24; Genesis 6:9; Deuteronomy 13:4; Matthew 17:20).

AGAINST EVERYONE / GENESIS 16:12

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Genesis 16:12

And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.

AGAINST EVERYONE / GENESIS 16:12

Ishmael, along with his descendants, would be a man of power and courage, but he would know conflict also. His desire for conflict would cause him to struggle for God or against God. The choice would be his.

ISHMAEL / GENESIS 16:11

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Genesis 16:11

And the angel of the Lord said unto her, Behold, thou art with child and shalt bear a son, and shalt call his name Ishmael; because the Lord hath heard thy affliction.

ISHMAEL / GENESIS 16:11

The name “Ishmael” means “God hears.” It signifies that God realized how unfairly Abram and Sarai had treated Hagar. The name is a judgment against Abram because God hates injustice among His people. The New Testament emphasizes that God will impose justice and judgment on people who mistreat those within the church (Colossians 3:25).

THE ANGEL OF THE LORD / GENESIS 16:7

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Genesis 16:7  

And the angel of the Lord found her by a fountain of water in the wilderness, by the fountain in the way to Shur.

THE ANGEL OF THE LORD / GENESIS 16:7

As this story unfolds, the “angel of the LORD” is revealed as God Himself speaking to Hagar (Genesis 16:13; 18:1; Judges 6:12, 14).

THE LORD HAS KEPT ME FROM HAVING CHILDREN / GENESIS 16:1-2

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Genesis 16:1-2

Now Sarai Abram’s wife bare him no children: and she had an handmaid, an Egyptian, whose name was Hagar. 2 And Sarai said unto Abram, Behold now, the Lord hath restrained me from bearing: I pray thee, go in unto my maid; it may be that I may obtain children by her. And Abram hearkened to the voice of Sarai.

THE LORD HAS KEPT ME FROM HAVING CHILDREN / GENESIS 16:1-2

It was customary among the people of Mesopotamia for a wife who could not have children to have her servant bear children for her. The children would then belong to the wife.

  1. Regardless of this custom, having children this way was not how God intended to give Abram and Sarai a family (Genesis 2:24).
  2. The New Testament compares Hagar’s son to the result of human effort, that which is received or attained “in the ordinary way” rather than “by the power of the Spirit” (Galatians 4:29). The Bible teaches in the Old Testament and New Testament that we can accomplish God’s purpose only if we do things His way, through the power of His Spirit and through prayer.

THE LORD MADE A COVENANT WITH ABRAM / GENESIS 15:17-21

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Genesis 15:17-21

And it came to pass, that, when the sun went down, and it was dark, behold a smoking furnace, and a burning lamp that passed between those pieces. 18 In the same day the Lord made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates: 19 The Kenites, and the Kenizzites, and the Kadmonites, 20 And the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Rephaims,21 And the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Girgashites, and the Jebusites.

THE LORD MADE A COVENANT WITH ABRAM / GENESIS 15:17-21

A covenant is a formal “life agreement.” Two or more individuals or parties commit themselves to each other with various promises and obligations. The process of making a covenant is described in Genesis 15:9-17.

  1. It consisted of killing certain animals, cutting them in half and then arranging the halves opposite each other (Genesis 15:10). Then the two individuals or parties making the agreement would walk between the two halves, symbolizing that if they broke the agreement they would die just like the animals (Genesis 15:17; Jeremiah 34:18). The “smoking firepot with a blazing torch” represented God’s presence (Genesis 15:17; Exodus 3:2; 14:24).
  2. Although a covenant usually included responsibilities for both parties (Genesis 17:9-14), in this situation only God’s presence passed between the pieces of the sacrificed animal (Genesis 15:17). God alone made the promises and determined the obligations of the covenant. Abram had only to accept them in obedient faith (Genesis 17:2).
