God hasn't fulfilled His promises to Abraham, yet [the Kingdom of God established on earth; and the salvation of all the families of the earth]. It's still in the works.
"These all died in faith, NOT HAVING RECEIVED THE PROMISES..." (Heb.11:13).
God promised Abraham two things: the world: [Rom.4:13] which is the promise of the coming Kingdom of God on earth -- and that through his "Seed," [Jesus Christ]... all the families of the earth would be "blessed" [which is the promise of salvation for the world].
Jesus Christ and His Father are still working on the fulfillment of these promises... and are still calling 'Children' out of the world for adoption into His faithful Family.
The Father has a predestined number of Children in mind for this fulfillment... and until that number is achieved, the work goes on -- until they shall eventually all be "glorified together" with faithful Abraham at the same time [the time of Jesus' return].
"...we are the Children of God: and if Children, then Heirs; Heirs of God, and joint-heirs WITH CHRIST; if so be that we suffer with Him, that we may be also GLORIFIED TOGETHER." (Rom.8:16-17)
"And these all [including Abraham], having obtained a good report through faith, RECEIVED NOT THE PROMISES: God having provided something better thing for us, that they without us should not be made Perfect." (Heb.11:39-40)
There are still the final "Christ-centered" prophecies to be fulfilled... which will not be fulfilled until He returns to earth in order to do so [see the fall harvest Holy Day Feasts of God {Lev.23} for detailed plan phases; Feast of Trumpets, Day of Atonement, Feast of Tabernacles, the Last Great Day].
The world is still under Satan's rule. The world is still in turmoil and confusion. And the Father in heaven is still calling His elect out of it... the final number which only He knows.
As yet... Jesus' sacrifice was the first phase of the fulfillment of His promises to Abraham. The door of "blessed" salvation was finally opened to "all the families of the earth."
"I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers, so that you may not be conceited: Israel has experienced a hardening [of their heart] in part until the FULL NUMBER of the Gentiles has come in." (Rom.11:25 NIV)
"...they too have now become disobedient in order that they too may now receive Mercy as a result of God's Mercy to you. For God has bound all men over to disobedience so that He may have Mercy on them all." (verses 31-32)
The end time published Word of God [The Bible; God's Unleavened Bread] "feeds and nourishes" the final called of God in these last days -- the Light and Truth of which is revealed and taught to them through the Power of the Holy Spirit, which is shed abroad... sanctifying, sealing and teaching them, until Jesus personally returns for the Glory and Perfection of all.
The fulfillment of God's Promises to Abraham is still ongoing. When the nations of the world see Jesus "coming in the clouds" -- then, the salvation of the world... and the fulfillment of all the rest of the prophecies shall be at hand.

God's promise to give Abraham the Holy Land (Genesis ch.12) was fulfilled when Joshua brought the Israelites into the land (Joshua ch.3-4) and they took the land (Joshua ch.5-10).
The promise He would be the God of Abraham (Genesis ch.17) was fulfilled when God made the covenant with Abraham's descendants and gave them the Torah (Exodus ch.19-20).
The promise that Abraham would be blessed and have a great name (Genesis ch.12) was fulfilled in his lifetime; because Abraham became very wealthy (Genesis ch.13), he was renowned as a prince of God (Genesis ch.23), and even kings sought him to make a treaty (Genesis ch.21).
The promise that Abraham (Genesis ch.12) would be a great nation was fulfilled in his millions of descendants.
The lineage of Esau is irrelevant to God's promise to Abraham, the promise will be fulfilled by Jesus Christ, who is of the lineage of Jacob, Esau's twin brother.
He is not recorded as having explicitly promised anything. Rather, he observed, fulfilled and taught the ways of God.
God promised him the entire land (Genesis ch.13 and 15), but the promise was fulfilled later, in the time of Joshua.
his son
The birth of their skin a fulfillment of laughter was the promise made between God and Abraham. This is from the Bible.
They believe that God promised to protect Abraham and his people.
Abraham promised to god that he would only worship one god. P.S. you misspelled Abraham : )
The word is covenant.
lack of faith
God didn't promise Abraham anything. God just told him to sacrifice his son Isaac and Abraham, being obedient to God, was going to do what God told him to do. That is until God stopped him. God was seeing if Abraham would still be willing to obey God even if it meant killing his only son.
It is called the "Covenant"-- the promise Abraham made with God, and God made with Abraham.
In the book of Genesis in the Bible, God promised Abraham and Sarah a son, even in their old age. Abraham was 100 and Sarah was 90 when Isaac was born. The "Child of the Promise" refers to God's promise to Abraham and Sarah.
