He totally stripped the devil of his power to harm you. He bore the curse for you so that you could receive the blessing of Abraham through faith in Jesus Christ.

Jesus became the sacrificial Lamb that established your covenant with God. His own blood was shed. The Book of Hebrews says that we have a new and living way to approach God. Remember "the way of blood"?

Well, the blood of Jesus has made the way for us to have a covenant relationship with the Father.

Jesus was not only the blood sacrifice, but He also became our Representative—the one Mediator between God and man! We have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous (1 John 2:1). He not only sees to our forgiveness when we confess our sins, He cleanses us from all unrighteousness.

Jesus was not only the blood sacrifice and the Representative, He was also the covenant meal.

I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world (John 6:51).

When you understand covenant

terminology, then you can see the thread of a covenant relationship woven all through the New Testament. Read Ephesians 6:10,11 and 13-17 in this new light.

Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.

Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

Jesus has exchanged His weapons and armor with you and made you strong in the power of His might. He exchanged your weakness for His strength. Through a covenant relationship, you are now one with Him.

Jesus took your sin and gave you His robe of righteousness and right-standing with God.

He has become so totally one with you that He has given you the authority to use His name. And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils (Mark 16:17). The devil has no right to be interfering in your affairs.

The New Covenant does not depend on your ability to keep it. It depends on Jesus'

ability to keep it. Just like Abraham...just like David... you have a covenant with Almighty God. Just like Abraham, you can become fully persuaded that what God has promised you, He is able also to perform. Just like David, you can stand on
