Our Blood Covenant

Our Blood Covenant

In the second chapter of the letter to the Ephesians, Paul reminds the people that before they believed they were: -Separate from Christ -Alienated from the commonwealth of Israel -Strangers to the covenants of promise -Without hope -Without God

The Complete Jewish Bible describes them as “foreigners to the covenants embodying God’s promise.”

But God, through the blood of the Son of His love, made a way for us to be brought near, in the family and in the covenant.

Sadly, the concept of covenant is still foreign to many believers today. Many in the church today are not able to see or value covenant; thus, they don’t fully participate in their covenant relationship with the Lord.

Psalms 25:14 says, “The friendship of Jehovah is with them that fear Him, And He will show them His covenant.” (ASV)

Understanding the concept of covenant, covenant relationship, His covenant love and His covenants of promise is essential to grasp all that Jesus and the cross provide us.

Zechariah 9:11 says concerning us, “As for you also, because of the blood of My covenant with you, I have set your prisoners free from the waterless pit.”

This verse from the prophet instructs us that the entire basis of our salvation (and all that salvation encompasses) is the blood of God’s covenant.

We look to His word and allow the Holy Spirit to show us the fullness of Our Blood Covenant.
