In the Old Testament, covenant was made between God and man where Moses was the mediator. They made animal sacrifices to be made right with God but it never made them perfect. But in the New Testament, covenant was made between God the Father and His Son Jesus Christ. We enter into this covenant not by any of our good works but by trusting in the finished work of Jesus. He bore all our sin and its consequences such as curse, sickness and sorrow on the cross triumphing over it. As He was raised from the dead and ever lives to intercede for us. In the moments of difficulty, we in Christ remain hopeful by thinking and speaking hope. Our hope is in Jesus having confident expectation of good not like the hope in the world which may or may not happen. Hope is springboard of our faith to take off from and actually hold the promises of God. May you experience the promises of God in your life.
