Answer:
God's promise to Abraham was a "dual" one. There was a "material" promise of national wealth and prosperity... and a "spiritual" promise that all the families of the earth would be blessed by his "Seed," which everyone is pretty much aware of as being the gift of Eternal Life through Jesus Christ.
"...I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: and I will bless them that bless thee, and curse them that curseth thee: and in thee shall all the families of the earth be blessed." (Gen.12:2-3)
The ultimate fulfillment of God's promises shall be the "great nation" of the Kingdom of God... and the "blessing" of salvation and being given Eternal Life.
"And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs ACCORDING TO THE PROMISE." (Gal.3:29)
