“and I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:”
Genesis 12:2 KJV
When God told Abram to leave everything and follow Him, He told Abram that He will make him into a great nation; and will exceedingly bless and prosper him; and make him famous, so that he would be a tremendous source of blessing for others. God was calling Abram out from more than just his relatives. He was calling Abram out from specific diety worship connected to nations, clans and ancestors. It was an incredible act of childlike faith on Abram’s part to go to an unknown land but it resulted in the blessings of Abraham for all the redeemed! Because he left his nation, God would make Abram into a great nation and give ability to procreate. God esteemed this aspect of Abram’s faith in the unseen and made his name great. Let’s walk by faith and not by sight, it pleases God. This will open our spiritual eyes to see as Jesus did when He said that He did what He saw the Father do. Thank You Jesus for being the Way to see into the spiritual realm!
