One of the most wonderful things about God is that He delights in keeping His promises. In the Bible there are over seven thousand assurances made from God to man and the earth. And to those pledges, all of His commitments to His word are, "Yea and Amen." Since the origin of time, when we obey, it is His pleasure to bless us as part of a covenant fulfillment. By doing what He has sworn is a compliment to His loyalty and integrity. The same is expected from us as we become Covenant Keepers, who, like our Father in Heaven, is a Keeper of His Covenant. Covenant is the cornerstone of our relationship with God. It is what links us into marriage with Him and one another. Furthermore, it is the connection point of God's relationship with man from heaven to earth. Also, it is the measurement of the agreement given by God with standards of integrity and divine loyalty expected from His creation if they anticipate living as Christians and sharing in the community of God amongst one another. By this standard and for this reason, we are tested through our relationship with Him and our fellowman. Our covenant with God is known as an exclusive covenant (if we obey God, we are blessed, and if we disobey we are cursed) while our relationship with man is known as a mutual covenant (a common agreement between two or more people). God inspired a covenant with Him and one another within Marriage, Family, and Friendships, to help us establish our reputations in these areas, which would give us a Good Name as we remain faithful to Him while keeping trustworthiness and honesty within these relationships.
