Adam was created by God from the dust of the ground.
Genesis 1
First God created everything the man and woman would need : The heaven and earth, plants, animals, fish and fowl, trees for fruit.
Then God created man.
27 So God created man in HIS own image, in the image of God created HE him; male and female created HE them.
28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
31 And God saw every thing that HE had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.
7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
Genesis 2
18 And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.
21-22 And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and HE took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof; And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made HE a woman, and brought her unto the man.
23 And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.
24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.

After Adam, multitudes of people were born as sons and daughters of men of the earth.
Enoch was a friend of God and did not see death for God removed Enoch from the earth.
Hebrews 11:5 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.
Noah found grace in the sight of God and God kept Noah from being destroyed in the flood. Genesis 6
God called Abraham and removed him from his father's house and from his people. Genesis 12
God spoke to Abraham several times promising Abraham a seed that would be great nations and even more than the dust of the earth if it were possible to count the dust, and as the number of stars in the heavens.
Here are some of those promises and words which God presented to Abraham.
The focal point is on "that which God spoke" ... that is what is important!
To each of us the focal point in our own lives is "That which God spoke to us."

15 For all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed for ever.
16 And I will make thy seed as the dust of the earth: so that if a man can number the dust of the earth, then shall thy seed also be numbered.

1 After these things the word of the LORD came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward.
4 And, behold, the word of the LORD came unto him, saying, This shall not be thine heir; but he that shall come forth out of thine own bowels shall be thine heir.
5 And HE brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them: and HE said unto him, So shall thy seed be.
5 And HE brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them: and HE said unto him, So shall thy seed be.
7 And HE (God) said unto him, I am the LORD that brought thee out of Ur of the Chaldees, to give thee this land to inherit it.
14 And also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge: and afterward shall they come out with great substance.
15 And thou shalt go to thy fathers in peace; thou shalt be buried in a good old age.
16 But in the fourth generation they shall come hither again: for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet full.

I think it is so interesting to see the Words God gave to Abraham and to see the promises of God and how all that God spoke to Abraham was fulfilled and how Abraham obeyed God in all things spoken by God to him.
God speaks to us today by HIS Spirit and by dreams and even by angels.
Write out those things you can remember God saying to you although there are so many things the Holy Spirit says, yet some words will really stand out to you even years after God spoke them to you.
Every one of the words spoken to us by God will happen.
Also as we share those words God spoke to us and those things God did for us we show God working in our lives and other people are also blessed by our testimony.
Philemon v. 6 That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.
When we tell what God has said and has done in our lives, our faith becomes "effectual" and others see God through our testimony.
