Old Testament day 2

The Story of Abraham is awesome! The story covered about the life of Abraham, on how he survived the famine by going to Egypt and then left Egypt with his cousin Lot. Then he went to live in the fields and had some problems with Lot and then they separated. Then God promised Abraham children but they(Abraham and Sarah) was doubtful. Then Abraham rescued Lot and Lot's possessions. Abraham then went to rescue Lot. Then they continued to doubt God regarding if they can actually bear a son! However this is not something difficult for God because He is all powerful!

Actually i mentioned throughout this article Abraham, but actually he is named Abram not Abraham yet. Until now then he is named Abraham.

5 Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for the father of a multitude of nations have I made thee.

SO we see that this is how Abram get the name Abraham. Then shortly after the Haggar problem and a son born to him and then Abraham gets a son!

God's promises are true and will hold true because they are backed by God Himself. Sometimes we may not understand them and may doubt them, but it is only because we are using human understanding to understand stuff not using Godly perspective to understand stuff!
