“The Covenant Keeper”
Saturday, March 30, 2024Key Verse
“Know therefore that the LORD thy God, he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him …” Deuteronomy 7:9
Text — Deuteronomy 7:6-11
Message
A covenant is a two-way promise, the conditions of which are set by God. When you enter into a covenant with God, you promise to keep those conditions by playing your part, and because God will always keep His covenant with His people. There are several covenants in the Bible, but five covenants are crucial for understanding the story of God’s redemptive plan. They are, the Covenant with Noah, the Abrahamic Covenant, the Mosaic Covenant, the Covenant with David and the New Covenant.
One important truth runs through these covenants and that truth centres around Jesus Christ – the Saviour of the whole world. God promised to send His only begotten Son to seek and save the lost. He eventually fulfilled that promise. It is now left for you to keep your own part of the covenant. Your part is to believe and accept Him as your personal Saviour and Lord. This will attract God’s covenant blessings to your life.
