In the faith, we are not bound by convenience but by covenant. Sir Elorm explains that Paul’s words to Timothy — “Do thy diligence to come unto me” — were words spoken from a place of covenantal responsibility. To be a son in the faith is not to walk in comfort, but in commitment.
Carnality is often the reason men break covenant. God is a covenant-keeping God, and those who truly revere Him also honor covenant. When times of shaking come, they reveal whether a man stands by covenant or walks by comfort.
Have you ever considered whether your service to God is born of covenant or convenience?
Paul was not ashamed of the gospel, because his allegiance was to a higher order. A believer who upholds covenant must be willing to hazard his life for the sake of the truth. The widow’s mite was not about the size of her gift but the depth of her heart — she gave her might, not her leftover. Anyone who does not give mightily in heart will not give mightily in hand.
What to Expect:- Understanding covenants in the faith- Ministry by covenant rather than convenience- Ramifications of covenant breaking- Sharing in the sufferings of ministry- Hazarding your life for the gospel
Brace up for a stirring episode that calls every believer to return to the covenant heart of service — where loyalty outweighs comfort, and love endures all things.Shalom! Maranatha!
