Abraham's Seed (Singular)

Much of the time, when God spoke promises to Abraham regarding his seed, it refers to the vast numbers of his seed. But after Abraham demonstrated his willingness to sacrifice his son, God spoke to him, this time, about a singular seed that should come. And He promised, "And in thy seed (singular) shall all the nations of the earth be blessed".

God preached the Gospel to Abraham. The Scripture foresaw that the heathen would be justified by faith. "Abraham saw my day, and was glad," said Jesus. Abraham saw the day when his seed would come, in whom all families of the earth would be blessed. Truly, God would make Abraham a blessing.

Sometimes obedience is followed by promise and revelation.
