In Genesis 15:1-6, Abraham is losing sight of God's promise to use him to bless all the peoples of the earth. God uses the stars as a reminder to Abraham of his promise in Genesis 12:1-3. The stars can also remind us that we are a part of something much bigger than ourselves. With God's help, we have an opportunity to make an impact well beyond our own city, lives and generation. Abraham believed God and his faith was credited as righteousness-this means when we put our faith in God and do what He asks today, we can trust Him to multiply our efforts to impact the world in the way He has planned.
