Greetings brothers and sisters in our High King, the Lord Jesus.

Gen 16:12 (KJV) And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every
man, and every man's hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.

Gen 16:13 (KJV) And she called the name of the LORD that spake unto her,
Thou God seest me: for she said, Have I also here looked after him that
seeth me?

Gen 16:14 (KJV) Wherefore the well was called Beerlahairoi; behold, it is between Kadesh and Bered.

Gen 16:15 (KJV) And Hagar bare Abram a son: and Abram called his son's
name, which Hagar bare, Ishmael.

Gen 16:16 (KJV) And Abram was fourscore and six years old, when Hagar bare Ishmael to Abram.

Gen 17:1 (KJV) And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD
appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before
me, and be thou perfect.

Abram is presented to God as he walketh and thou made perfect.

Gen 17:2 (KJV) And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly.

Gen 17:3 (KJV) And Abram fell on his face: and God talked with him, saying,

Gen 17:4 (KJV) As for me, behold, my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt
be a father of many nations.
s
Gen 17:5 (KJV) Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy
name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made thee.

Gen 17:6 (KJV) And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make
nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee.

God had promised Abram that his family would be great and fruitful and
multiply to the Promised Land.

Gen 17:7 (KJV) And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a
God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee.

Gen 17:8 (KJV) And I will give unto thee, and to thy seed after thee, the
land wherein thou art a stranger, all the land of Canaan, for an
everlasting possession; and I will be their God.

Gen 17:9 (KJV) And God said unto Abraham, Thou shalt keep my covenant therefore, thou, and thy seed after thee in their generations.

Such as God created the rainbow, God's covenant to never to flood the world again, such as He promised Abram, now named Abraham a covenant.

God bless you all.

May peace rest with you.
