What Was the First Prayer in the Bible? How God Answered According to Covenant.
Genesis 15--A closer look at a conversation with Abram and God.
After these things the word of the Lord came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward.
--God answered Abram in a vision and spoke a promise.
2 And Abram said, Lord God, what wilt thou give me, seeing I go childless, and the steward of my house is this Eliezer of Damascus?
--Abram told God one of the stewards in the house was his but God told him the steward did not belong to him, the steward belonged to God.
3 And Abram said, Behold, to me thou hast given no seed: and, lo, one born in my house is mine heir.
--Abram reminded God that he had no seed, or child.
4 And, behold, the word of the Lord came unto him, saying, This shall not be thine heir; but he that shall come forth out of thine own bowels shall be thine heir.
