Scripture Reading:  Genesis 12-20

The LORD said to Abram, "Leave your native country, your relatives, and your father's family, and go to the land that I will show you."

So Abram is a sojourner - leaving him with no civil rights in the land that he's going to.  He'll soon discover that the land God shows him that will be for him and his offspring, is currently occupied; and to boot, his wife Sarai is barren.  But God confirms to Abram - by way of a covenant - that He "will make [Abram] into a great nation.  I will bless you and make you famous, and you will be a blessing to others.  I will bless those who bless you and curse those who treat you with contempt.  All the families on earth will be blessed through you." - Genesis 12:1-3 ESV
