Land, Wealth, and a great nation (i.e. many, many children.)
God told Abraham that in his words the world would be blessed. Abraham has a covenant relationship with God.
Answer:
There are two covenants which God made with Abraham (Genesis ch.15 and Genesis ch.17).
1) In Genesis ch.15, the Covenant Between the Parts:
a) God informs Abraham of future events (the Egyptian exile)
b) God promises the land of Canaan (Israel) to Abraham's descendants
c) The covenant is finalized through a demonstration of God's presence (see Genesis 15:7-9 and 15:17).
2) In Genesis ch.17, the covenant of circumcision:
a) The promises of many descendants (17:2,3) and of inheriting the land of Canaan are repeated (17:8), but the main thing in this covenant is the promise that God will be the God of Abraham (17:7, 17:8).
b) God promises that Abraham and Sarah will have a son (17:15-16), whom they will name Isaac (17:19) and who will be the continuation of God's covenant with Abraham (17:21).
c) The covenant itself is manifested through circumcision, for Abraham and his descendants (17:10).
The word is covenant.
The most important part of God's promise to Abraham was the verse "And I will establish My covenant between Me and you and your seed after you throughout their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto you and to your seed after you" (Genesis 17:7).
The symbol of God's covenant with Abraham is circumcision, which was the physical sign of the covenant between God and Abraham's descendants. This practice was to be continued throughout generations as a reminder of God's promises to Abraham and his descendants.
It is called the "Covenant"-- the promise Abraham made with God, and God made with Abraham.
According to the Torah, God made a covenant with Abraham, promising that he would be the father of a great nation and that his descendants would inherit the land of Canaan. This promise is often referred to as the Abrahamic covenant, which includes the assurance of numerous offspring and blessings. Additionally, God pledged to be a God to Abraham and his descendants, establishing a lasting relationship between them.

God changed Abraham and Sarah's names to signify a new beginning and a covenant with them. It represented a transformation in their lives and a promise of blessings and descendants.
He didn't - He spoke for God and to God, but not against Him. He believed in God and God counted it unto him for righteousness. The book of Genesis tells Abraham's story and the Book of Romans speaks lots of Abraham's faith in God's promise and covenant.
