Covenant ministers

Then God said to Abraham, “Your responsibility is to obey the terms of the covenant. You and all your descendants have this continual responsibility." ~ Genesis 17:9 (NLT)

He has enabled us to be ministers of his new covenant. This is a covenant not of written laws, but of the Spirit. The old written covenant ends in death; but under the new covenant, the Spirit gives life. ~ 2 Corinthians 3:6 (NLT)

KEY THOUGHT:
God has called us to serve him as ministers of his new Spirit-powered covenant.
PRAYER:
Thank you, God, for the privilege of being a minister of your new covenant. Thank you for the joy I experience when sharing this with family and friends. Make me competent to do this work and not to depend on my on own abilities. I don't want to get ahead of the Holy Spirit. Amen. (Daily Texts, Mount Carmel Ministries edition)
