OUR UNBREAKABLE COVENANT

Psalm 89:33-34 Nevertheless My loving kindness I will not utterly take from him, Nor allow My faithfulness to fail. My covenant I will not break, Nor alter the word that has gone out of My lips.

God is constantly reminding us in His word about the things that cannot be changed and here they are again - God’s covenant with us and His Word. They are two things that are irrevocable. If God has declared it, then it will be!

That is why His promises are so sure and steadfast. We may have people in our lives who may change their minds or let us down when under pressure in some way, but God is not a man that He should lie. God cannot lie or change!

Isaiah 54:10 “For the mountains shall depart And the hills be removed, But my kindness shall not depart from you, Nor shall My covenant of peace be removed,” says the Lord, who has mercy on you.

When we feel like we've lost our peace or we're upset, it’s good to let that sink in a bit especially if we’re under pressure about a situation. Then if we take some time to read Hebrews 10 especially verses 14,16-17 we’re reminded that in the new covenant God declares He has perfected us forever, and He’ll remember our sins and lawless deeds no more!

So if life is trying to get on top of us, or we feel a failure for any reason we can go back to our verses today, read them over ourselves and keep a tight hold on our confidence in our great High Priest Jesus and all He’s done and doing for us. Yes, we may fail sometimes but that doesn't make us a failure! It's not who we are. 

We are in Christ, a child of God, and God sees us as forgiven and blameless in His sight so let's believe His Word which cannot be changed ðŸ˜Š and remember….

Joshua 21:45 Not a single one of all the good promises the Lord had given…….was left unfulfilled; everything He had spoken came true.

We have an unchanging God and He’s given us an unbreakable covenant in Jesus. Thank You Lord.
