Abraham
Purpose: To learn about Abraham
Reading: Genesis 12:1-8

Abraham was a man who was chosen and loved by God. He lived in a place called Ur. His original name
was Abram. His wifes name was Sarai. His fathers name was Terah.
God called Abram. Do you know why? God called him to bless him.
God commanded him, Go from your country, your people and your fathers household to the land I will
show you. I will make you into a great nation.
Abram believed God. Even though he was 75 years old with no children, he never complained to God.
According to Gods command, Abram and Sarai arrived in Canaan with Abrams nephew Lot. There they
built an altar to Jehovah.
When Abram was 99 years old, God appeared to him again and named him Abraham, meaning father
of many nations. In his 100th year, a son was born to Abraham. He was named Isaac.
Abraham trusted in the Lord throughout his life. He obeyed everything God said. Thus he came to be
known as the father of the believers.
If we trust in the Lord, He will bless us too.
