The story behind this page
God calls Abraham to leave everything and follow Him, promising to make him the father of a great nation.
Story 4 of 27 in our Bible stories in order plan. Up next: Leah.
Genesis 15:5–6
5The LORD brought him outside, and said, “Look now toward the sky, and count the stars, if you are able to count them.” He said to Abram, “So will your offspring be.”
6He believed in the LORD, who credited it to him for righteousness.
Earlier in Genesis, God made a promise to Noah and set a rainbow in the clouds as its sign (Genesis 9:13). Read the Noah's Ark story to put two of God's promises side by side.
Questions parents ask
Why is the whole top of the page covered in stars?
Because the stars are the promise. In Genesis 15:5 God told Abraham his descendants would outnumber the stars he could count. The artist filled the sky on purpose. The drawing is meant to feel uncountable.
Why is Abraham drawn as an old man?
He was already in his eighties when God showed him the stars, and Isaac wasn't born until Abraham was one hundred (Genesis 21:5). The long white beard helps kids grasp the hardest part of the story: God's promise came long before the answer did.
Any tie-in activity for a class on God's promises?
A simple one: before coloring, challenge your Sunday school kids to count the stars on the page out loud. When they lose track, read Genesis 15:5-6. They'll have just experienced the verse themselves. Print as many copies as your class needs.
How should we color a night sky without making it muddy?
Color the stars first in bright yellows, then go around them with a dark blue or purple crayon rather than over them. Or leave the sky white and only color the stars. The page reads as nighttime either way.
