Yesterday was my third message on the message series, Covenant. It appears that the more I study this subject matter the more I am blown away by God’s actions and intension for us. His love for us is truly unfathomable!
Simply put, He gave to us “choice” and we choose to separate ourselves from Him. So, for 4,000 years, He set up and taught us the processes of covenants in order to bring us back to Him. And He topped it all off when He made the final and lasting covenant with us – JESUS!
There is so much truth to be discovered and explained from the symbolism and types in the Word of God concerning covenant. I really wish I could go over all of it with a fine-toothed comb; but I guess I’ll leave that up to you to personally research it – it’ll stay with you longer… 🙂
I pray that in this message series, we, as a church, will grab hold of an understanding of God’s love toward us. And, in that love, will come forth a well-digested and metabolized understanding of terms like “fear of God, commitment, faithfulness, conviction and faith. All these are necessary in order for us to keep our terms of The Covenant. I will continue on Wednesday night @7:30pm! See you there!
Anxious to read your thoughts,
Pastor Manny
