God Promises a Son to Abraham

  This lesson is taken from Genesis 15:1-6 

The Lord spoke to Abram in a vision and said to him, “Don’t be afraid, Abram, for I will protect you, and your reward will be great.”  But Abram said, “O Lord, what can you give me, since I don’t have a son?  Lord, you have given me no children!  My servant, Eliezer from Damascus, will be my heir and he will inherit all my wealth.

But the Lord said, “No!  Your servant will not be your heir, for you will have a son of your own who will be your heir.”  Then the Lord took Abram outside and said to him, “Look up into the sky and count the stars if you can.  For that is how many descendants you will have?” Abraham believed the Lord, and the Lord said he was righteous because of his faith.

On one of the Lord visits to Abram He told Abram that He was changing  Abram name to Abraham and Sarai name to Sarah.
