Topic: Dig In To Your Covenant [Kenneth Copeland Devotional 30 March 2020]
This cup is the new covenant [ratified and established] in My blood. – 1 Corinthians 11:25, The Amplified Bible
New Covenant. It’s a familiar phrase to most of us. But do we really know what it means?
No we don’t. Because if we did, every one of us would be faith a giant. Instead of struggling, “trying” to believe the promises of God, we’d be like Abraham: “Strong in faith…fully persuaded that, what [God] had promised, he was also able to perform” (Romans 4:20-21).
That’s the kind of confidence that welled up in Abraham when God cut the covenant with him. It was an inferior covenant to ours, made with the blood of animals. Yet it transformed a doubting Abraham into the very father of faith. Why? Because, Abraham understood the significance of it.
