NEW
COVENANT
Luke
22:15-20
Devotional:- “Likewise
He also took the cup after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant
in My blood, which is shed for you” (V. 20) NKJV.
Believers in Christ
are the people of the new covenant. They enjoy the new order of covenant with
God. That is why the Bible has two parts. The Old and the New Testament. The
word testament means covenant. Under the old covenant, which is of the law,
humanity has been brought under a great yoke. That is why God saw it as faulty,
and organized to establish the new (Hebrews 8:8). Under the old covenant, the
devil has taken so much advantage of many people. Part of the Old Testament is
that any soul that sins shall die (Ezekiel 18:4). Whoever sins is of the devil
(1 John 3:8). Under this, the devil has caged the multitude into covenant
bondages, which gave him legal right. So he has deceived so many people into
covenant bondage ignorantly when they come to request anything from him.
The covenant
operating upon some doesn’t make them prosper. So many people have been
dedicated to demons by covenant. Some have been given spiritual spouses by
covenant. So many are troubled by forces of darkness with bad dreams
nightmares, and much more.
The truth is that
Jesus has become the mediator of a new covenant (Hebrews 9:11-18, 8:6). That is
why He offered Himself as a sacrifice and shed his blood to put the new
covenant in place. All covenants are sealed with blood (Hebrews 9:18). He shed
His blood for us (Luke 22:20). And the Holy Communion table is a symbol of our
part in the new covenant (John 6:53).
As a new covenant
child, the old has passed away in your life. Don’t let the devil tie you down
to the old. The blood of Jesus has broken the former no matter who did it on
your behalf. The blood of Jesus has given you access to better things in life
(Hebrews 12: 24). So, you are not part of the old order in your family or
society. These are what have passed away in your life (2 Corinthians 5:17).
Renounce the covenant in the name of Jesus (Philippians 2:9-10). Cover your
spirit, soul and body with the blood of Jesus (Hebrew 9:14). Then start to
resist the devil over your life with the word of God (Luke 4:1-13). You will
overcome him by the blood of Jesus and the word of God (Revelation 12:11). You
are free from the old covenant. If you will believe, that old things have
passed away in your life. The new order has started. Now you shall be
progressive and prosperous in Jesus' name.
DECLARATION:
THE DEVIL HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH MY LIFE AGAIN; I BELONG TO THE NEW COVENANT.
“THE NEW HAS
CANCELLED THE OLD IN CHRIST”
