Episode Genesis Chapter 17- Cut it Off

0:00 1:18:46

Genesis 17 is refreshing… and powerful.

Why does God talk covenant again after Genesis 15? And why is circumcision the sign?

Thirteen silent years pass. Ishmael is thirteen. The plan Abram and Sarai created seems to be working. Then God shows up, reveals Himself as El Shaddai, changes Abram’s name to Abraham, and Sarai's name to Sarah... and deepens the covenant with an everlasting promise.

This is the chapter where flesh is cut away, identity is spoken before fulfillment, and the “Ishmael Plan”, the human plan, is once again reminded that it was not the OG Covenant plan.

If you’ve ever tried to force God’s promises through your own effort… this episode is for you.

Because the Kingdom isn’t built by human strength ... but by the power of God. ☕✨
