In Romans 4:19, we're told that Abraham not being weak in faith considered not his body now dead due to old age or the deadness of Sarah's womb. The word, "consider," means "to consider attentively, to fix one's eyes or mind upon."
Romans 4:20 also tells us Abraham didn't waver (discern, doubt, judge, be partial, stagger, or waver) at the promise of God through unbelief but was strengthened in faith, giving glory to God. A promise is for something future not yet realized. He was fully convinced that what God promised He would do.
Part of having faith is what you don't do:
1. You don't consider what other people say about God's promises to you, and you don't consider the seemingly impossible circumstances.
2. You don't waver between God's promises and circumstances - going back and forth between the two.
