Covenant-Keeping God

“You and your descendants after you must keep my covenant throughout the ages.” Genesis 17:9




Salvation history, from Genesis to the Book of Revelation is the story of God’s family. God told Abraham that He will maintain, continue, and establish an everlasting covenant between Himself and Abraham and all Abraham’s descendants for generations to come. In the sometimes exciting, sometimes boring events in the Book of Exodus, we see how God’s covenant family becomes a nation through Moses. Even if the Egyptian Pharaoh enslaved the Hebrews, God kept His covenant promise and rescued them. 


God continues to keep His promises today. He is a covenant-keeping God. Are we a covenant-keeping people? That would mean we are faithful to Him even during difficult times. That we study how to please Him so we can become more and more like Him and value what He values. That we spend quality time with Him because He is first in our life.
