Understanding the Subject of the Covenantናሙና

ASSURANCES OF THE COVENANT

When men swear, that ends all strife or argument on that matter; you just accept what the person has said. Swearing means giving someone a higher, bigger and stronger reason to believe that what you are saying is true. If you are a woman looking for the fruit of the womb and the devil or the doctors tell you that you can’t conceive, the promise of God says “…none shall be barren” (Jeremiah 7:33). God is willing to show you that His promise cannot fail. So, what does He do? He confirms it by an oath or covenant! He swore!

If men swear by a false god and that ends all doubt and questions in their mind, why should you doubt when God puts an oath between you and Him? When you read the promises of the Bible, they are backed up by an oath! God swore! He didn’t have to, but He has sworn. Because there is no greater, higher, bigger authority to swear by, God swore by Himself. God has sworn, which means if His promises fail, then God has to vacate His throne. That is what an oath from God means. This assures you of His promise - an assurance that His Word can never, ever fail. Hallelujah!

Prayer: Father, Thank You for the promises of Your Word. As You have sworn by Yourself, they can never fail and I believe it in Jesus' Name. Amen.
