Our COVENANT GOD (Ref. 37) - the ETERNAL KING - 27 December 2017 (From the desk of Celia Joy Martins)
I will establish My COVENANT between Me and you and your descendants after you throughout their generations for AN EVERLASTING COVENANT, TO BE YAHWEH GOD to you and to your descendants after you (Gen. 17:7). I will make an EVERLASTING COVENANT with (you) that I WILL NOT TURN AWAY FROM (you), to DO (you) GOOD; and I WILL PUT the FEAR of Me in (your) HEARTS SO THAT (you) WILL NOT TURN AWAY from Me (Jer. 32:40) And behold, I AM WITH YOU and WILL KEEP WATCH OVER YOU WITH CARE, TAKE NOTICE OF WHEREVER YOU MAY GO ...(Gen. 28:15 ) For your Maker is your Husband - YAH of HOSTS is His Name - and the holy One of Israel is your Redeemer; the Yah (God) of the WHOLE EARTH He is called (Isaiah 54:5). For though the mountains shall depart and the hills be shaken or removed, yet My LOVE and KINDNESS SHALL NOT DEPART from you, NOR SHALL My COVENANT of PEACE AND COMPLETENESS BE REMOVED, says Yah, Who has COMPASSION on you (Isaiah 54:10)
A MESSIANIC PROPHECY: MESSIAH - the EVERLASTING KING:
2 Sam 7:12-16 tells us that A KINGLY LINEAGE would come through king DAVID. It was a MESSIANIC PROPHECY pointing into the future at MESSIAH YAHSHUA as the KING (of ISRAEL) and OF the WHOLE WORLD.
Jerusalem (CHOSEN by ABBA) as the "KINGLY" CITY FOREVER:
Rev. 21:2 "I saw the HOLY CITY, the NEW JERUSALEM, coming DOWN OUT OF HEAVEN FROM YAH, PREPARED AS A BRIDE BEAUTIFULLY DRESSED for her HUSBAND.
:12 It had a GREAT AND HIGH WALL, with TWELVE GATES, and at the GATES TWELVE ANGELS; and NAMES WERE WRITTEN ON them, which are the NAMES of the TWELVE TRIBES of the sons of Israel.
:14 And the WALL of the CITY had TWELVE FOUNDATION STONES, and ON THEM were the NAMES of the TWELVE APOSTLES of the LAMB."
THE COVENANT RATIFIED (authorized) in MESSIAH as the COVENANT of PEACE and GRACE:
It is pointing to the "NEW" COVENANT - a MESSIANIC COVENANT OF GRACE and OF PEACE - a REVISION - an ADJUSTMENT or AMENDMENT to the OLD COVENANT where the old Covenant's SACRIFICES FELL AWAY as MESSIAH are the ONCE and for ALL SACRIFICE for ALL of MANKIND (to INCLUDE the GENTILES as the "GRAFTED" IN people of YAH.).
Thank You ABBA for YOUR LOVE - YOUR LOVING KINDNESS - YOUR MERCY and YOUR GRACE. Thank YOU for YOUR WORD BRINGING TRUTH to a LOST WORLD - SETTING the CAPTIVES FREE. Thank YOU for TEACHING US that we should KNOW that the KEYS TO YOUR KINGDOM ARE LOVING YOU, OBEDIENCE, REPENTANCE, TURNING AWAY from SIN, FOLLOWING YOU and in KEEPING YOUR COMMANDMENTS. Thank YOU FATHER that THE TRUTH of YOUR WORD IS SETTING US FREE - TAKING US OUT OF OUR BABYLON and OUR EGYPT and INTO YOUR PRESENCE. FORGIVE US ABBA for BEING SO SETTLED in our BABYLON WAYS. FORGIVE us that WE HAVE FOLLOWED the TEACHINGS OF MAN - being BAPTIZED into TRADITION and RELIGION instead of BEING BAPTIZED INTO YAHSHUA MESSIAH AFTER REPENTANCE. FORGIVE us that WE HAVE COMMITTED OURSELVES to the TEACHINGS OF THE CHURCH instead of the TEACHINGS OF YOUR WORD - the UNCOMPROMISED WORD that IS MESSIAH HIMSELF. FORGIVE ME my heavenly Father that I PLEDGED on the 11th of February 1973, as a BORN-INTO NG CHURCH young girl of 16 years old, that I WHOLEHEARTEDLY BELIEF in the LAWS, DOGMA (the TRADITION) of the NG CHURCH and that I PLEDGED to KEEP IT in DETERMINATION. Father, forgive me that I PLEDGED to FOLLOW the COMMANDMENTS of MAN instead of FOLLOWING YOUR COMMANDMENTS. Forgive me that I VOWED that I WOULD WHOLEHEARTEDLY SUBMIT myself to the CHURCH and ITS WAYS INSTEAD of SUBMITTING MYSELF WHOLEHEARTEDLY to YOU and YOUR TEACHINGS/WAYS. Forgive ME that I PLEDGED these THINGS as "IN YOUR NAME" as my REMINDER-CARD (of the NG CHURCH) so explicitly states signed and sealed by the elders and the minister of faith. Father, in Yahshua's NAME I ask forgiveness for BAPTIZING our sons into the TRADITION of the CHURCH instead of DEDICATING them to You. Forgive our parents for BAPTIZING us into the TRADITION of the NG CHURCH. Forgive us (my husband and myself) for LETTING our SONS make the same PLEDGE of COMMITMENT to the CHURCH and its WAYS (RULES DOGMA TRADITION) than we made. Father I ask You to open the heavenly books and DIVORCE US as a FAMILY and EACH ONE OF US in PARTICULAR from these COVENANTS that we have made in Yahshua Messiah's name. Thank You for forgiveness and for SETTING us FREE - Thank You for YOUR SPIRIT that can NOW IN HIS FULL SEVEN-FOLD WORKING POWER COME DWELL IN US - in YAHSHUA MESSIAH'S NAME. Thank You for BEING OUR ROCK and our SALVATION - OUR MIGHTY YAH - OUR COVENANT YAH - our STRENGTH AND OUR PEACE - In Yahsua Messiah's NAME. Thank YOU FOR BEING OUR ETERNAL KING - thank YOU THAT WE CAN COME INTO YOUR PRESENCE and BE WITH YOU. In Yahshua Messiah's name. Amen.
