Rhapsody of Realities Devotional & Prayer 26th October 2026

TOPIC: YOU’RE THE RESULT OF THE COVENANT

SCRIPTURE: Ye are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying unto Abraham, And in thy seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed (Acts 3:25).

Some Christians confidently say, “I’m in covenant with God.” It sounds spiritual, and it’s a popular expression in many Christian circles. But the popularity of a doctrine doesn’t make it right. You are the seed of Abraham in Christ Jesus. Through Jesus Christ, you’re the fruit of the Abrahamic covenant.

Think about the marriage covenant between couples; it’ll help you understand this better. A husband and wife enter into a covenant through marriage, but their children aren’t parties to that covenant. Rather, the children are the fruit of it. They are the result of the union established by their parents’ marriage covenant.

In the same way, the Christian isn’t someone trying to maintain a covenant relationship with God or with the Lord Jesus. The Christian is the fruit of the covenant. Being born of God, you’re the heir of the blessings of the covenant.

This is why the Bible doesn’t describe the Christian as merely a worshipper or a servant of God. A Christian is one who’s born again with the very life and nature of God. You’re a new creation, a new kind of man. Your identity is rooted in the divine life you’ve received in Christ.

This understanding lifts your faith to a higher level. You don’t approach God hoping He’ll honour a covenant you think you have with Him. Rather, you live in the consciousness that you’ve been born of Him and into His household. You’re an heir of God and a joint-heir with Christ (Romans 8:17).

Moreover, the Bible says, “And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise” (Galatians 3:29). You’re not trying to claim covenant blessings; you’re the heir or inheritor of the blessings of the covenant because you belong to Christ.

Never reduce your relationship with God to that of someone standing outside, appealing to the terms of a covenant. You belong in the Father’s house. You’re His offspring, born of His Spirit; you’re the glorious result of the new covenant which was established upon better promises through the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Confession
In Christ Jesus, I’ve been made a fellow citizen with the saints and a member of the household of God. I’m born of God, possessing the divine nature. I’m an heir of God, a joint-heir with Christ, and the heir of the blessings of the covenant. I live in the consciousness of my divine heritage, enjoying the fullness of all that Christ accomplished for me, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
