GOD'S COVENANT WITH MAN

EXODUS 15:26; SH'MOT

"He said, 'IF you will listen intently to the Voice of Adonai your God, do what He considers right, pay attention to His mitzvot and observe His laws, I will not afflict you with any of the diseases I brought on the Egyptians; because I Am Adonai your Healer."

Today I want to talk about God, His Word, His Covenant with man, and His Position with His Heart. In John G. Lake's Sermons which Gordon Lindsay put in a book form, Pastor Lake shared a teaching about this Divine Health Covenant that God made with man. "The Value of a Covenant With God" page 20; chapter 3, in the book called, "The John G. Lake Sermons on Dominion Over Demons Disease and Death." It says; "I want to bring you some of the facts of Scripture that bear on the value of a covenant with God. I shall use as my subject Exodus 15:26. God calls His people into a special relationship with Himself. God binds Himself by covenants, and a covenant is more than a contract. A contract is an agreement between two parties. A covenant is more. For instance the State of South Caroline grants no divorce upon this ground. Marriage is not a legal contract in the State of South Carolina. It is a covenant. They explain a covenant like this. A man and woman have covenanted with Almighty God to live together as man and wife. At a later time the man and woman may change their minds, but the law holds that God, being a party to the covenant, does not change His mind. He is the first party, the man and the woman the second party. One party alone cannot break the agreement. The covenant must be dissolved by both parties."

IF, you have entered into covenant with God through the acceptance of Jesus Christ His Son, and you have partaken of His Flesh and Blood, you may sin or back away from your covenant position, but the First Party has not. His Covenant of Divine Health is Eternal through Jesus Christ Who is Lord.

It stands to reason, if the Egyptians disease is on your flesh and body, then you have broken with God, He has not broken with you. Then you must check where you are broken with Him and get back your covenant rights from Him. He still is in His Covenant Position and has Said; "I will never Leave you."
