God of covenants V
Jeremiah 31:33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people
Covenant number six is the covenant God made with David or name it the Davidic convenant.
Through Prophet Nathan in 2 Samuel 7:16, God promised David that, "And thine house and thy kingdom shall be established for ever before thee: thy throne shall be established for ever. Forever a king would come out of his loins. Hence the children of Israel call Jesus the son of David because Jesus is the eternal son who sits on the throne of his father David. The good thing is that in the New testament He does not sit there alone. We too whom He has made kings and priests are seated with Him in the spirit reigning, glory to God!
Covenant number seven is the New covenant. It was prophesied in our theme scripture, Jeremiah 31:33. This is our covenant that we live in. As a new testament believer, you need to hear about it every day. Unfortunately, there are so many people even preachers who want to preach about the Mosaic covenant mainly. The Law of Moses is not for you in this new testament dispensation. For instance, imagine the village you come from. In that village, some of you used to live in a grass thatched house but after a while God brought you to a city house. It's unfortunate that some people up to now are always showing us photos of their grass thatched house as the house they still live in yet they are in another, which is far better than the previous one.
The Bible says God found fault with the old covenant and made a new one for us, live according to your new covenant, hallelujah!
