Covenant Believers

A covenant is an agreement that establishes 3 important things: Boundaries of accountability, a circle of trust, and qualifies people for relationships. As a Christian, God is in covenant with you! Jesus Christ gave us tremendous access to God through His blood. His death on the cross paid the price and ramson for our sins. Now, we are reconciled as believers to God in Christ. Jesus gave us a "New Covenant" that qualifies us for relationship with God. This new covenant establishes a circle of trust with God that has no end date, and as long as we remain accountable to him for our actions, we can live in an atmosphere of favor! Therefore, exercise your divine authority to obtain the promise God made to you!

Feeling Guilty?

Guilt is a feeling that can follow us around like our shadow. Think about it? Guilt is emotional baggage that we can't simply wish away, cover up, or hide. It must be remedied, resolved, or reconciled. When our actions bring about damage or injury to others-guilt is the consequence. Jesus taught that there are different degrees of guilt. He taught his followers that the true measure of guilt is found in the heart. In other words, our motives determine the degree of guilt God assigns to our actions. Occasionally, we are guilty of something or for something, but our motives are pure, that is admirable with God. The next step is simple: may it right with the people who are victims of what we have done. And if you are the victim and the guilty party won't make amends, decide how important it is to you for the guilty party to make amends. If it's not that important, forgive it! Otherwise, determine your options-you do have rights you know.
