My Daily Devotion (Book 3)

God Keeps His Covenant

PSALMS CHAPTER 89

Memory Verses

    “If his sons forsake My law And do not walk in My judgments, If they break My statutes And do not keep My commandments, Then I will punish their transgression with the rod, And their iniquity with stripes. Nevertheless My lovingkindness I will not utterly take from him, Nor allow My faithfulness to fail. My covenant I will not break, Nor alter the word that has gone out of My lips.
Psalms 89:30‭-‬34 NKJV

God's Word

      Only God has an integrity to fulfill His covenant, that even though people may change, He will not. What he says will surely come to pass.
      From generation to generation His faithfulness never ends. So, let us hold on unto His promises and unto His covenant that we shall receive from His Word.
      Let us always claim what we have read through the Bible, because we are the continuation of it's story from Abraham to Jesus Christ our Lord.
       We received the promise because Christ is with us. Jesus Himself is the fulfillment of God's promises and covenant.
      
       Brethren, I speak in the manner of men: Though it  is only a man’s covenant, yet if  it  is confirmed, no one annuls or adds to it. Now to Abraham and his Seed were the promises made. He does not say, “And to seeds,” as of many, but as of one, “And to your Seed,” who is Christ. And this I say, that the law, which was four hundred and thirty years later, cannot annul the covenant that was confirmed before by God in Christ, that it should make the promise of no effect. For if the inheritance is of the law, it  is no longer of promise; but God gave it to Abraham by promise. What purpose then does the law serve?  It was added because of transgressions, till the Seed should come to whom the promise was made; and  it  was  appointed through angels by the hand of a mediator. Now a mediator does not mediate for one only,  but God is one. Is the law then against the promises of God? Certainly not! For if there had been a law given which could have given life, truly righteousness would have been by the law. But the Scripture has confined all under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe. But before faith came, we were kept under guard by the law, kept for the faith which would afterward be revealed. Therefore the law was our tutor to  bring  us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith. But after faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor. For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus. For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.
Galatians 3:15‭-‬29 NKJV
