Fulfill Your Covenant in Me, Lord

Do you want to serve the Lord, but find it just too hard to be good enough? Do our good deeds really need to outweigh our bad, or is a sincere desire good enough?


After God delivered the children of Israel from slavery, parted the red sea for them, gave them manna every day, water from a rock, and made them His special people, the people said, “All that the Lord has spoken we will do.”  (Exodus 19:8)


And then what? They said they were afraid to even listen to God (Ex.20:19-21), and they whined and complained, grumbled, disobeyed, and wandered...


So are we any different? ‘Fraid not, my friend. That is why God said in Ezekiel 36:26-27: “I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My judgments and do them.”


As badly as we want to fulfill God’s covenant to make us holy and blameless, we can’t do it. 

And what’s more, He already knows this and has paved the way to fulfill His covenant in us.


And this He can only do as we allow. We allow Him by surrendering ourselves completely to His will - His covenant with us.


Start each day by contemplating the beautiful character of God and His excellent plan for your life (and for your day). Let Him do His work in you. Let Him fulfill His covenant in you.
