Hebrews 11:8-10 (NKJV) (Faithful Abraham)

1) About The Promise's of God
In the same way God, in His desire to show to the heirs of the promise the unchangeable nature of His purpose, intervened and guaranteed it with an oath,
so that by two unchangeable things [His promise and His oath] in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled [to Him] for refuge would have strong encouragement and indwelling strength to hold tightly to the hope set before us.
This hope [this confident assurance] we have as an anchor of the soul [it cannot slip and it cannot break down under whatever pressure bears upon it], a safe and steadfast hope that enters within the veil [of the heavenly temple, that most Holy Place in which the very presence of God dwells],

I have made you a father of many nations) in the presence of Him whom he believed, that is, God, who gives life to the dead and calls into being things that do not exist.
In hope against hope he believed, so that he might become a father of many nations according to that which had been spoken, So shall your descendants be. Without becoming weak in faith he contemplated his own body,
now as good as dead since he was about a hundred years old, and the deadness of Sarahs womb;
yet, with respect to the promise of God, he did not waver in unbelief but grew strong in faith, giving glory to God, and being fully assured that what God had promised, He was able also to perform. Therefore it was also credited to him as righteousness.
