Jesse Tree: Day 4

Read: Genesis Gen 12:1-7, 15:1-6, 22:1-19 - this is the change to this date...I combined the orginal readings for days 4 & 5
What it's about: God's promise to Abraham
Picture idea: stars, lots of people/children
Scripture snippet: And behold, the word of the Lord came to him, saying, This man shall not be your heir, but he who shall come from your own body shall be your heir. And He brought him outside [his tent into the starlight] and said, Look now toward the heavens and count the stars--if you are able to number them. Then He said to him, So shall your descendants be. And he [Abram] believed in (trusted in, relied on, remained steadfast to) the Lord, and He counted it to him as righteousness (right standing with God). (Genesis 15:4-6 AMP)
