Judges 1-2 Unbreakable Covenant

by Jill Ice


Now the angel of the Lord went up from Gilgal to Bochim. And he said, “I brought you up from Egypt and brought you into the land that I swore to give to your fathers. I said, ‘I will never break my covenant with you' - Judges 2:1


Beautiful words from God Himself.  It's amazing that God would enter into covenant with sinful people.  And, because of God's very nature, we know God would never break that covenant.  


The new covenant through Christ's sacrifice on the cross is even better than the old covenant the Israelites knew in Judges 2.  Hebrews 8:6 - But as it is, Christ has obtained a ministry that is as much more excellent than the old as the covenant he mediates is better, since it is enacted on better promises.

What reason have I to doubt

Why would I dwell in fear

When all I have known is grace

My future in Christ is clear

My sins have been paid in full

There's no condemnation here

I live in the good of this

My Father has brought me near

I'm leaving my fears behind me now

Chorus

The old is gone, the new has come

What You complete is completely done

We're heirs with Christ, the victory won

What You complete is completely done

I don't know what lies ahead

What if I fail again

You are my confidence

You'll keep me to the end

I'm leaving my fears behind me now
