*THE BETTER COVENANT* (III)
_Key Bible Text:_
*And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.* (Revelation 21:3 (KJV))
_Bible Insight:_
*2. "I will be their God, and they will be my people."*
That God is your God is a big deal. That you are God's person, is the main goal. Being a people of God is one of the salient features of the New Covenant. It comes next to having God's laws in our inward parts.
Indeed a change of nature that conforms us to God's nature as revealed in Christ, can only result in our becoming God's people and God becoming our God. It is a two way relationship. God is ours. We are God's. Hallelujah!
To be God's means to live for His pleasure. To be God's is to exist at His commands and purpose. When we are God's people, we don't live by our own will but we pursue God's will.
On the other hand, when God is our God, we are God's highest priority. God lives for our well being and progress. God is committed to make our battles His. God is committed to be involved in all that concerns us as our God because we are His people.
The challenge is, we don't usually know how to be God's people. God is ours. And he does his part well. But we being God's people,is where we fail. We are called His people, but sometimes behave otherwise. This should not be so.
*MEDITATION*
*Becoming God's own/person/people and God being our God, is an exclusive preserve of the New Covenant. If we are not under the new covenant, we are not God's and God is not ours in this special sense. Only when a person subscribes to the new covenant does he or she become God's person and God his God.*
