the covenant of grace to all believers

These great and precious promises, though they relate chiefly to the life which now is, were typical of the spiritual blessings made sure by the covenant of grace to all believers, through Christ.

1. Plenty and abundance of the fruits of the earth. Every good and perfect gift must be expected from above, from the Father of lights.

2. Peace under the Divine protection. Those dwell in safety, that dwell in God.

3. Victory and success in their wars. It is all one with the Lord to save by many or by few.

4. The increase of their people. The gospel church shall be fruitful.

5. The favour of God, which is the fountain of all Good.

6. Tokens of his presence in and by his ordinances. The way to have God’s ordinances fixed among us, is to cleave closely to them.

7. The grace of the covenant. All covenant blessings are summed up in the covenant relation, I will be your God, and ye shall be my people; and they are all grounded upon their redemption. Having purchased them, God would own them, and never cast them off till they cast him off.

Our Heavenly Father who dwells in Heaven once again we come to thy throne of grace to worship you and give you thanks for all the blessings that you bestowed upon us. Our hearts is filled with gratitude as we ponder upon thy promises this morning.

You favor us with a lot of things and you never consider our sins againts us, your love is pure and unconditional. You had give us peace and hope in the time of tribulation and afflictions. You send us light in our darkest moments, you never fail to listen and answer our prayers.

You mercy and grace made us fruitful and lead us in our Christian walk as you had promised. You increased the numbers of those who seek and follow thee. We pray Father that may your light continue to shine upon us and lead us to thy path of righteousness and faithfulness.

May we keep thy promises in our hearts and in our mind that we may remember that you walk among us and you are our God and we are thy people. You freed us from the bondage of sin and now no longer slave by the enemy of our soul. You had broken the bar of our yoke and enable us to walk with head held high for we are thy children. Amen
