Doubt

In this message, we see Abraham is able to demonstrate faith that God will fulfill His promises because Abraham believes in the character of God. God covenants Himself to Abraham so that Abraham will know that he will indeed inherit the land. This foreshadows the way in which God will covenant Himself any who believe in Him, through the sacrifice of the cross. We are reminded to think of ways in which God has blessed us in the past to help us trust Him in the situation we are facing now.
