In a dream, God’s voice did declare,
“Fear not, for I am thy shield fair,
Thy reward is great,
Count the stars if thou’st
Believed, and righteousness shall be there.”

Potential actions to take in response

A practical way to respond to Genesis 15:1-6 is to focus on building trust in your own decisions and plans. The passage emphasizes that trusting in what’s promised—like Abraham believing that he would have a child despite the odds—can help you feel more confident even when outcomes seem uncertain. You might do this by setting small, achievable goals in areas of your life where you feel unsure, then following through on them. Each success can reinforce your ability to trust yourself and your judgment, much like Abraham trusted the promise made to him. This approach encourages you to develop a mindset of confidence and patience, recognizing that taking steps forward—even when results aren’t immediate—builds faith in the process and in your capacity to handle challenges.
