COVENANT KEEPING GOD

COVENANT KEEPING GOD
A covenant is an agreement to do or not do a particular thing. It is also a promise to a contract. A covenant could also be a bin ding agreement between two or more parties. When you make a covenant between two or more parties, you have a binding agreement. A covenant could be broken between two parties. Men break covenant; but GOD does not. When couples get married they are tied together, covenanted to each other. They agree to become one. In future, if they both disagree, the covenant between them is broken; the contract between them is terminated. A man could lie loving a lady, but afterwards jilt her; just deceiving her at first. He could have promised her, I will get married to you, but he can rescind his decision at any time; men do that a lot. Most men are covenant breakers, bur GOD is a covenant keeper. No wonder the bible says: “And also the strength of Israel will not lie nor repent”. GOD is the strength of Israel; he brought them from Egypt into their promise land as promised. What he says he does, what he GOD does he has said it. GOD values covenant, he is not a covenant breaker. The Israelites were on several occasions guilty of breaking the covenant between them and GOD. Judges 2 vs. 1: “ And an angel of the Lord came up from Gilgal to Bochim, and said, I made you to go up out of Egypt, and have brought you unto the land which I swore unto your fathers and I said, I will never break my covenant with you”. Eventually the Israelites disobeyed GOD’s voice by making league with people they shouldn’t and did not destroy altars they should have. There was a covenant between GOD and the Israelites, GOD kept his part; but the Israelites didn’t. Our GOD never breaks his promise, that is why he honors his word than his name.
    However, while I started my first degree in the University, I made a covenant with GOD that I will serve him with all my heart, throughout my stay in the university and not defile myself; and in exchange I want him GOD to make me graduate with a good grade. I was faithful in my part and He GOD was too; I finally made a good grade at the end. It is a god thing to make a covenant with GOD, because you are telling him He is more than able to help you. Covenant with GOD brings blessings, greatness, possessions, inheritance, favor provided you are faithful. Are you in a circumstances you think is greater than you? Why not make a covenant with the covenant keeping GOD. He is able to do exceedingly; abundantly above all we could ever ask or think of, according to the power that worketh in us. It is well with us….

OUR DAYS.

OUR DAYS Greetings to all reading on this platform worldwide. I write on this topic OUR DAYS even as   my twin sister and I are a year older today. Glory be to GOD for a new year and a new day. A song says great is thy faithfulness, Oh LORD my father, morning by morning new mercies we see, all we have needed his hands have provided, Great is thy faithfulness. Truly great is his faithfulness toward all men. Many are not convinced of these, many don’t see something special in GOD’s faithfulness towards them. David said “Then I lay down and slept in peace and woke up safely, for the LORD was watching over me. He GOD never sleeps nor slumber over us, we just find out we sleep and before you know it, you open your eye to a new day. This is the LORD’s doing and it should be marvelous in our sights. We are to see reasons to always appreciate and thank GOD for his goodness, mercies and faithfulness. That you are alive shows He is faithful. The gift of life which is the greatest of...

FREEDOM FREEDOM FREEDOM

FREEDOM FREEDOM FREEDOM Freedom is a state of being able to do what you want without anything stopping you. Galatians 5 vs 1 says: so Christ has made us free, now make sure that you stay free, and don’t get all tied up again in the chains of slavery to jewish laws and ceremonies. Christ’s death on the cross made us free, we are in bondage before, but Christ made us free. We are tied up in chains slavery to sins, but his death made us free. The bible said whosoever the son sets free, is free indeed. We have been set free, and we are free. Many misuse this freedom, many use this freedom to do the wrong things. Many still dwell in sins despite, this freedom. This freedom brings grace, love, purity and faithfulness. The bible said we can’t continue in sins and say grace to abound, GOD forbid. When you are in sin, your freedom becomes captivity again. That is why, you must flee from all appearances of sins. Paul said in Galatians 5 vs 13: For dear brothers, you ...

THE DUTY OF MAN

THE DUTY OF MAN Duty is that which one is morally obligated to do. A husband in a house is responsible for meeting his family’s needs. That is the duty of a husband. A wife is responsible for taking care of the children and also house chores. That is the duty of a wife. A school teacher’s responsibility is to teach the students. That is the teacher’s duty. A student’s responsibility is to go to school, listen to what the teacher teaches and study them. That is the student’s responsibility. Our Creator GOD created everything for a purpose. Every creation has a duty to carry out. Unfortunately, many creations have failed in their duty. When a man doesn’t carry out his duty he is termed a failure. It causes the Creator GOD nothing to replace men with stones when they fail him. I pray may you not fail GOD!                However, there is time for everything. Don’t get excited and get carried away in this world. D...
