From Background Notes [BN] for November 16th & 17th written by Pastor Bob Brown:
Abraham’s life was a signpost that
pointed well into the future! “A thousand generations” is the Hebrew way of saying
“for a very, very long time.” The God who called Abraham would remain faithful
to “his covenant” and to oath” he swore. To take this journey into the future
means trusting God’s faithful past as the basis for His hopeful future.
We do not travel in a vacuum that
comes from nowhere and goes to somewhere. Not at all. This God “remembers” his
covenant in the sense that He keeps always a live option for those who accept
its terms. [BN,2]
