3. Review Genesis 17. First God gives Abram the covenant of circumcision. Then God changes the names of Abram and Sarai to Abraham and Sarah. When God told Abraham of His plan to fulfill His promise of giving a 100 year old man and a 90 year old woman a child from their own bodies, Abraham laughed in temporary unbelief. When have you felt that God’s promises were simply too amazingly good to be true? See also Colossians 2:13-15.
