GOD of Abraham, GOD of Isaac, and GOD of Jacob ~ (Exodus 3:6)

This is one Name God wants to be remembered by in all generations (Exodus 3:15).  It expresses who He is to His people.  God proved Himself as a Covenant-Keeping God by keeping the promise He made to Abraham to give him a son and make a great nation out of him. He proved Himself as a Faithful God, when He provided a ram to be sacrificed instead of Isaac.  He proved Himself as a Merciful God, when He changed Jacob's name to Israel, and gave him a new life.

God made a covenant first in Abraham, and renewed it in Isaac and Jacob. If you belong to Christ, you are Abraham's spiritual seed and an heir of his blessings (Galatians 3:29). Let it be known that God is faithful to all His promises, and unchangeable in His nature.
