"The ANATOMY of the COVENANT with GOD!"

In the Greek language, the word "covenant" (diatheke) means "to cut, to divide and to separate"; it is symbolic of the shedding of blood and it represents the safety and security of a relationship. In short, the relationship is sealed with blood. It was the blood of Christ that sealed our fate of having access to eternal life in the presence of a Holy God. The C will separate the wheat from the tares!

In (Genesis 17: 6-7) God makes His Covenant (C) with man. The covenant with God is not based upon convenience! God will send a "shaking" into the life of every Believer to test their commitment to the C. The C is an agreement between God and man whereby God initiates the C.
The C is an irrevocable promise from God (Judges 2:1) and it constitutes a mutual understanding between the parties involved whereby the Believer "binds" himself or herself to the Lord God in all things.

When God declares the word "My," He is indicating that something significant has already been established for us from the foundation of the world and that He has always wanted to do something especially for you. He has chosen you to be a part of His spiritual family. The C has nothing to do with how you FEEL (only what you BELIEVE) because we walk by faith and not by sight.




As a Believer, your spirit man is "destiny driven" and "legacy focused." In other words, you have a purpose for living the victorious life and serving God's people in the marketplace. Your "spirit man" will lead you places your "flesh" cannot handle.

We are a generation struggling with the aftermath of generations of broken covenants from our ancestors. Being in C with God means we have to trust God to bring His outcome for our lives to manifestation. The C cannot be taken lightly...choose you this day life or death (Joshua 24:11-15)!
