All the sons of Abraham did not receive the promise of birthing the Messiah, only Isaac. And we are Abraham's seed if we belong to CHRIST.

Abraham had 8 sons, {Genesis 25) but he gave ALL that he had to Isaac. Verse 5.
Galatians 4:28-
"28 Now you, brothers, like Isaac, are children of promise. 29 At that time the son born in the ordinary way persecuted the son born by the power of the Spirit. It is the same now. 30 But what does the Scripture say? “Get rid of the slave woman and her son, for the slave woman’s son will never share in the inheritance with the free woman’s son.”
31 Therefore, brothers, we are not children of the slave woman, but of the free woman."
