Dust Of The Earth

Genesis 13:14-18 (ESV Strong's)

14 The Lord said to Abram, after Lot had separated from him, “Lift up your eyes and look from the place where you are, northward and southward and eastward and westward, 15 for all the land that you see I will give to you and to your offspring forever. 16 I will make your offspring as the dust of the earth, so that if one can count the dust of the earth, your offspring also can be counted. 17 Arise, walk through the length and the breadth of the land, for I will give it to you.” 18 So Abram moved his tent and came and settled by the oaks of Mamre, which are at Hebron, and there he built an altar to the Lord.


The offspring or seed of Abraham are those who are of the earth and receive this land forever. Abraham is their father. They are as the dust of the earth. 


Our Father is in heaven and our promised land is the kingdom of heaven. It is eternal life. We are as the stars in the sky and are the light of the world. 


Heaven and earth come together when the Lord returns to the earth to stay. The light will shine from the New Jerusalem and the twelve tribes of Israel will be as the twelve leaves from the tree of life which are for the healing of the nations.
