THEME: COVENANT
Genesis 17:6-8
I will make you exceedingly fruitful; and I will make nations of you, and kings shall come from you. And I will establish My covenant between Me and you and your descendants after you in their generations, for an everlasting covenant, to be God to you and your descendants after you. Also I give to you and your descendants after you the land in which you are a stranger, all the land of Canaan, as an everlasting possession; and I will be their God.”
INSIGHT
-The Abrahamic covenant was an agreement between God & Abraham, to multiple him & his descendants & make him the father of many nations. It was also a promise to give him & his descendants the land of Canaan as an everlasting inheritance as part of the privileges. This was an eternal covenant to Abraham & his descendants; not to be altered or revoked, which comprised of kings like David & Jesus our King of kings in his lineage. Abram & Sarai’s identities/ names had to be changes as part of the conditions to the covenant. It was then sealed by circumcision where every male eight years of age had to be circumcised. By virtue of this being an everlasting covenant, it is a call of faith in God just as Abraham believed God, & it was accounted to him for righteousness, so that only those who are of faith are sons of Abraham (Gal 3:6-7). For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor un-circumcision avails anything, but faith working through love (Gal 5:6). This unveils two important covenants we have to keep with God, one of faith & love which is circumcision of the heart.
PRAYER
Lord our King of kings full of mercy & compulsion, look with pity upon us & cleanse us & our blood lines by Your precious blood from all evil. Impart in us pure faith to believe in You Father & Your blessings through Abraham yielding perfect love through Your Son Jesus Christ. We implore You Father to lead us in Your will that we may always have direction of purpose. You are worthy to receive all glory, honor & praise now & forever. Amen
Blessed Tuesday
