STEEMCHURCH: I will make of You a Covenant for the People.
SOURCE
I will make a covenant with you for the people.
Isaiah 49: 8
Jesus Christ is in himself the total sum of the covenant and, as one of his gifts, he is the possession of every believer. Dear Christian, are you capable of probing what you have received in him, because "all the fullness of the divine dwells in bodily form in Christ"? (Colossians 2: 9)
He considers the word God in the fullness of his infinite greatness and then meditates on the beauty of arriving "to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ" (Ephesians 4:13, RVR 1960).

Remember, being God and being a man, everything that Christ has or ever had belongs to you solely and exclusively thanks to his favor. It has poured out on you and it will be your inheritance forever.
Our blessed Jesus, as God, is omniscient, omnipresent and omnipotent. Is not it comforting to know that all these glorious attributes are fully yours? Does he have the power you need? His power is yours to help and strengthen you, to subdue your enemies and to sustain you forever.
Does he have the love you need? There is not a single drop of love in your heart that does not belong to you, and you can dive into its immense ocean of love and affirm: "It's all mine!"
Does he have the justice you need? It may seem like an unpleasant attribute, but it is also yours. And it is this same justice that will assure you that everything promised in his covenant of grace is certainly for you.
You also participate in the delight of the Father who was about him as a perfect man. The Most High God accepted it. Therefore, dear believer, God's acceptance of Christ is also your acceptance. Do you not realize that the love that the Father poured out in the perfect Christ also gives you?
Everything Christ achieved is yours. The perfect righteousness that Jesus manifested is yours. Throughout his unblemished life he obeyed the law, honored it and now his righteousness is conferred on you.
Through the covenant, Christ is yours!
My God, I am yours; What a divine consolation!
What a blessing to know that the Savior is mine!
In the pure Lamb of heaven, my joy is tripled
And my heart dances to the sound of its name.
Jesus has made a promise. We know that he is God's son and also keeps his promises. We have to keep our promise to be loyal to him to benefit from the spiritual provisions. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you God for spilling your inheritance in us your children.

Jesus always fulfill our promises, though we do not see his presence, but we feel his presence as a living being. This tells us that the covenant gave to us will come to pass
