Part 8: New Covenant Rejoicing

(This is part 8 of 8 parts in this class)

 

God has covenanted to protect and prosper you. One of the best places in the Bible to begin getting established and familiar with God's marvellous Covenant of Peace is in the 54th chapter of Isaiah.

O you afflicted one, tossed with tempest, and not comforted, behold, I will lay your stones with colorful gems, and lay your foundations with sapphires. I will make your pinnacles of rubies, your gates of crystal, and all your walls of precious stones. All your children shall be taught by the Lord, and great shall be the peace of your children. In righteousness you shall be established; you shall be far from oppression, for you shall not fear; and from terror, for it shall not come near you.

Isaiah 54:11-14 - NKJV

 

So here we learn so much about God's covenanted prosperity and protection. You may have been afflicted, tossed with life's storms and not comforted, but now hear what God has covenanted to do for you! Oh, it's so exciting - whenever I meditate upon that passage I begin rejoicing with "joy unspeakable and full of glory".

Our New Covenant relationship with God embraces all of this and much more. God has committed Himself to watching over you, to build and to plant! Jeremiah 31:28.
