1 After these things the word of the Lord came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward. 2 And Abram said, Lord God, what wilt thou give me, seeing I go childless, and the steward of my house is this Eliezer of Damascus? 3 And Abram said, Behold, to me thou hast given no seed: and, lo, one born in my house is mine heir. 4 And, behold, the word of the Lord came unto him, saying, This shall not be thine heir; but he that shall come forth out of thine own bowels shall be thine heir (Genesis 15:1-4).
The Lord’s promises are sure and irrevocable. When God promises a son, a son will be born. God is neither interested nor constrained by typical human concerns of feasibility. All things are possible with God. This should not surprise us since the God that created, called the Universe into existence out of the power of His command. And so when God promises a heir, a heir will be provided. God is faithful.
