And as for Ishmael, I have heard you: I will surely bless him; I will make him fruitful and will greatly increase his numbers. He will be the father of twelve rulers, and I will make him into a great nation.

3 Days
El Shaddai, meaning the Almighty Sufficient One, is one of the names of God revealed to Abraham. When Abraham lacked belief in the covenant, God described Himself as El Shaddai, letting Abraham know that he didn’t need any help but through God. Tony Evans teaches more on this in this three-day plan.
The God Provides series offers a rich, dramatic journey through theater-quality, short films which show us wisdom, truth, encouragement and practical steps to deepen a relationship of trust with God. This session highlights the true story of Abraham and Isaac, his son. God used this test of obedience to see whether or not Abraham trusted Him fully and would, in faith, obediently make everything he had available for God’s use.
This three-day plan is all about perseverance and studies some key characters in the Bible who set the example for us as believers. Perseverance is hard, but the reward is worth it!
5 Days
This 5-day devotional will walk alongside Abraham, examining how our forefather reacted and grew through the promises God worked in his life. Often God calls his people into a new season, ripe with expectations, yet severely lacking in actual logistics. God loves to promise the unthinkable during the unimaginable. When nothing else seems like it could possible go wrong or be more parched… God shows up and gives hope.
