Ishmael's destiny foretold - Gen.17:20-27
*A thought:*
When God wants to turn a situation from despair to delight, all He has to do is breathe into it. The aspirate sound (the letter 'h') is inserted in Abram's and Sarai's names, thus indicating that the breath of God was at work. He does the same with the word 'impossible'. He breathes into it and it becomes 'Him-possible'
*Week #2 memory verse:*
Romans 8:28
And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
