Isaiah 59:21 ” As for me, this is my covenant with them, says the Lord. My Spirit, who is on you, and my words that I have put in your mouth will not depart from your mouth, or from the mouths of your children, or from the mouths of their descendants from this time on and forever, says the Lord.”
The Scene: A Scroll representing all the covenants* Father God has made with His children.
*COVENANT: A mutual agreement between God and man. An example; covenant of grace, is that in which God engages to bestow salvation on man, upon the condition that man, woman shall believe in Christ and yield obedience to the terms of the Gospel. (Reference: American Dictionary of the English Language–Noah Webster 1928 11th Edition 1999, page 50.)
We know that God’s covenants are true because they are written in Jesus’ blood, the Son of of Father God.
Zechariah 9:11-12a ” As for you, because of the blood of my covenant with you, I will free your prisoners from the waterless pit. Return to your fortress, O prisoners of hope; even now I announce that I will restore twice as much to you.”
Deuteronomy 7:9 ” Know therefore that the Lord your God is God; he is the faithful God, keeping his covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love him and keep his commands.”
As obedient children belonging to God we CAN CLAIM ALL OF THE COVENANT promises, and we know that God does not, cannot lie. And because of the oath he gave to Abraham, He swore upon himself–for there is no one greater than He himself and His covenants (see Genesis 22:17) which He made.
Hebrews 6:13-15 “When God made his promise to Abraham, since there was no one greater for him to swear by, he swore by himself, saying, ‘I will surely bless you and give you many descendants.’ And so after waiting patiently, Abraham received what was promised.”
