Freedom and Causes of Spiritual Oppression: Christian Literature, #1

By Elly Ombaso Ototo

The plan of God was to reconcile man back to himself and to re-establish man's position through a new covenant. What we lost in Adam, Jesus restored as the last Adam.All the failures at Eden were incorporated in Jesus at His death on the cross. Through Christ Jesus, we close the chapter of sin and we usher in a new chapter of righteousness. Through Christ Jesus, God began a new race of men called the new creation.

OUR COVENANT - KEEPING GOD

Acovenant can be described as an agreement between two or more people to establish a relationship in which promises, responsibility and punishment for breaking the covenant are made. Covenants are binding. They are deemed to be irrevocable commitments.

It is like a chain binding two people together. A covenant makes the two to have one thing in common that keeps them together. A binding promise of far-reaching importance in the relations between individuals, groups, and nations.   The term "covenant" is of Latin origin (con venire), meaning a coming together.

Covenant is a solemn, binding arrangement between two parties and entails a variety of responsibilities, benefits and penalties depending on the words of the covenant.

The God we serve is a covenant making and covenant keeping God.

In the Old Testament, the word covenant implied to cut, the shedding of blood for purposes of making an agreement. The Hebrew word is BERIYTH which means covenant, treaty, compact, agreement between two parties.

It was first used in God's covenant with Noah. It is a pact made by passing between pieces of flesh.

Psalm 89:34.My covenant will not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.

Jehovah is a God of covenant. God is committed to it. He is always watching over his covenant. God's final commitment to do anything is in a covenant

God’s Covenant with Abraham

In Genesis 12, the Lord appeared to Abraham and made a number of promises to him. His promises included that God would bless Abraham; that God would make a great nation out of Abraham; through Abraham, God would bring blessings to all the nations of the earth.

As we read from Genesis 12 onward, we begin to see that God starts to fulfill those covenant promises. At the beginning, the blessings and the promises are centered around Abraham personally.

He and his wife, Sarah, were barren, and God miraculously brings about the conception of Isaac. Sarah is past the conventional age of giving birth but God provides a miracle and Isaac is born. In the book of Genesis 17:1-10 we read;

Genesis 17:1. And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the Lord appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect.

²And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly.

³And Abram fell on his face: and God talked with him, saying,

⁴As for me, behold, my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many nations.

⁵Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made thee.

⁶And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee.

⁷And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee.

⁸And I will give unto thee, and to thy seed after thee, the land wherein thou art a stranger, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and I will be their God.

⁹And God said unto Abraham, Thou shalt keep my covenant therefore, thou, and thy seed after thee in their generations.

¹⁰This is my covenant, which ye shall keep, between me and you and thy seed after thee; Every man child among
