God Gives New Names

Name Date

Read the Story

When Abram was 99 years old, God appeared to him. God said, I am God Almighty. Walk before me and be blameless.

God gave Abram a new name: Abraham. It means father of many. God gave Sarai a new name too: Sarah. God said Sarah would have a son, and kings would come from her family.

Abraham laughed. How could a 100-year-old man and a 90-year-old woman have a baby? But God said Sarah would have a son next year, and they should name him Isaac. God always does what He says.

Memory Verse

“Your name will no more be called Abram, but your name will be Abraham; for I have made you the father of a multitude of nations.”

Genesis 17 · Grade 3

Father of Many Nations

Name Date

Read the Story

When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to him and said, I am God Almighty. Walk before me and be blameless. God gave His promises again. Abram would be the father of many nations. God would be God to him and his children forever.

God changed Abram's name to Abraham, which means father of a multitude. He changed Sarai's name to Sarah and promised to bless her with a son. Kings of peoples would come from her. God also gave a sign for the boys and men in Abraham's home. It showed that they belonged to God's family.

Abraham fell on his face and laughed. How could he and Sarah have a child at their age? He asked God to bless Ishmael. God said He would bless Ishmael. But His covenant would be with Isaac. Sarah would have Isaac the next year. That same day Abraham obeyed everything God commanded.

Memory Verse

“I will establish my covenant between me and you and your offspring after you throughout their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God to you and to your offspring after you.”

Genesis 17 · Grade 4

God Almighty Keeps His Word

Name Date

Read and Think

Thirteen years after Ishmael's birth, God appeared to Abram with a new name for Himself: El Shaddai, God Almighty. Abram and Sarai were very old, but nothing is too hard for the Almighty. God called Abram to walk before Him faithfully.

God gave new names to show new identities. Abram (exalted father) became Abraham (father of a multitude). Every time someone said his name, they would hear God's promise. Sarai became Sarah, and God promised she would be the mother of nations.

God gave a physical sign of the covenant for the males of Abraham's household, marking them as God's people. God promised a son named Isaac within a year. When Abraham asked God to bless Ishmael, God promised to bless him too, but the covenant line would go through Isaac. Abraham obeyed that very day.

  1. What new name did God use for Himself, and why does it fit?

  3. What was the purpose of the covenant sign?

  4. How quickly did Abraham obey?

Genesis 17 · Grade 5

An Everlasting Covenant

Name Date

Read and Think

Genesis 17 records a major renewal of God's covenant with Abraham. Thirteen years after Ishmael's birth, the Lord appears and says, I am God Almighty. Walk before me and be blameless. The phrase my covenant appears again and again. God promises to multiply Abraham greatly, to give the land of Canaan as an everlasting possession, and, most precious of all, to be God to Abraham and to his offspring after him.

God marks this moment with new names. Abraham means father of a multitude, and Sarah is promised to be a mother of nations, with kings among her descendants. God also gives a covenant sign to be placed on every male in Abraham's household, even servants and foreigners in his home. The sign showed that the covenant came from God and belonged to the whole family. Later, Paul explains that the sign was a seal of the righteousness Abraham already had by faith (Romans 4:11), and that what matters most is a heart changed by God.

Abraham laughs at the thought of a son at one hundred, and asks God to let Ishmael live before Him. God answers with grace: Ishmael will be blessed and become a great nation, but the covenant will be established with Isaac, to be born at this season next year. Abraham responds with immediate obedience.

Think About It
