I appreciate the many answers of experiences, for indeed our God will make Himself known to us for now He hears when we come to Him in that One name only that will grant us all the blessings. Jesus!
But, I would like to expand a bit on scripture.
Gen 17:17 Then Abraham fell upon his face, and laughed, and said in his heart, Shall a child be born unto him that is an hundred years old? and shall Sarah, that is ninety years old, bear?
Gen 17:18 And Abraham said unto God, O that Ishmael might live before thee!
Gen 17:19 And God said, Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son indeed; and thou shalt call his name Isaac: and I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him.
Gen 17:20 And as for Ishmael, I have heard thee: Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly; twelve princes shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation.
Gen 17:21 But my covenant will I establish with Isaac, which Sarah shall bear unto thee at this set time in the next year.
Is this covenant still in effect? I say yes. I do word studies and had a question that I took to the Lord concerning Ishmael and Isaac. My late husband was Jewish. Full Jew, both mother and father were Jews. My question was the difference between the nations. And God.
The word covenant is
