God’s Covenant With His People

Series:  A Prosperous Life 10/2/11 The God of the universe, our Sovereign King, has chosen us as His people, and when we accept His covenant, all of His resources become ours.  Now in Deut 4-27 God spells out the terms of the covenant.  He sets forth what he requires of His people, if they are to live in covenant relationship with Him.  In ch. 28 he outlines the blessings and curses that come as a result of accepting or rejecting His covenant.  In Deut. 28-God basically says:  If you accept my covenant, if you obey the terms, this is what I will do for you!!!  God’s covenant reveals His will and intent for His people.  The word covenant is also translated as “will.” And as we study the covenant He made with His people, we understand more clearly God’s will or intention toward those who are in covenant relationship with Him, including ourselves, who have been brought into covenant relationship trough faith in Christ.
