Covenant Exchange

God has made a binding agreement with us.....a promise that cannot be broken.   Have you ever got tired of people breaking promises....of things going wrong?   Well the thing about God is that He cannot lie.   He can't do anything wrong.   The Bible says that God is not a man that He should lie nor the son of man that He should repent.   He never has to go back on His word.  If you don't receive anything else from this blog today, please grab hold of the "fact" that God cannot go back on His word.   It is not in Him to have to repent.   It is not in Him to lie.   So what He said in His word and what He has said about you....IS TRUE.

Now the biggest thing that we must understand is that the covenant is an exchange.   There are things that we must do in order to receive God's promises.    We must "honor" Him, we must "obey" Him, and we must "trust" Him.   Unlike many agreements that we have bound ourselves to, God has incorporated two provisions in His covenant that will keep the agreement from being nullified if we fail to meet up to the standards.   Those provisions are "grace" and "mercy".  

God's desire is that you see the end result of His promises.   He desires that you walk in health.   That you walk in wealth.   That you walk in the confidence of knowing who He is in you, to you, and through you.  

God's plan for your life goes far beyond your ideas or your qualifications.    His plan has to be revealed to you by Him.    As He told Jeremiah in the Bible, so it is for us.   He knows the plans that He has for us.  Plans of good and not evil.   Plans to give us a hope and a future.   In other words, the plan that He has will produce inside of us not only an "expectancy" but it will also take us into our "expected end".   \\

Trust the word in your life today.   Know the covenant promises of God.   Know the "exchange"....what you must do in order to receive the promises of the covenant.
