I am in the covenant business, not the contract business. When you sign a contract, you have no assurance that the person you had an agreement with will meet the provisions listed in the contract. Today, more than ever, people are not honoring the contracts that they have signed.
I am a covenant keeping God. I kept My covenant with Abraham, Moses, David, and I now am keeping My new covenant with you. I covenanted that the day would come when I would write the law on your heart and give you a new heart. That day came when I died for your sins. I told My disciples just before I died that My blood was the new covenant. The covenant of My blood guarantees that all who believe in Me will receive the three gifts I died to give them. Those three gifts were My grace, My truth, and My righteousness.
Daily remind yourself that the law is now written upon your heart. Remind yourself that only I, the obedient One, can keep the law through you. Remind yourself that because you believe in My atoning blood, you now are the very righteousness of God in Me. All the promises in My Word are yours through Me. Rejoice today because My Father sees you dressed in My robe of righteousness.
