EDENIC COVENANT (GOD’s promise in Creation)
Also known as “The Covenant of Creation.” The Creation of Divine Order; each day of
creation is built on the other. The Edenic covenant reveals the eternal nature of GOD’s
creative design. Genesis chapters one and two contain HIS irrefutable declarative Word
which brought the Earth and the Cosmos into being; Jeremiah 33:19-25; Genesis 8:22
with Genesis 1:14-19 and Psalms 89:34-38.
ADAMIC COVENANT (GOD’s promise and Protection)
The Adamic Covenant uniquely placed humanity as the focal point of GOD’s creation
and defined the purpose for Mankind. Created in the image and likeness of GOD
(Genesis 1:26,27), this covenant was the first expression on earth of the pre-existent,
everlasting covenant in Heaven.
NOAHIC COVENANT (GOD’s promise and Preservation)
The covenant GOD established with Noah, his family, all future generations and creation
itself after the Flood (Genesis 9:9-11). This Covenant reveals the eternal, unchanging
and unifying nature of GOD. Noah and his sons are told to be fruitful and multiply
(Genesis 9:1,7; 8:15-17), that they would rule over the animals (Genesis 9:2-3), and
finally that never again would a universal flood occur (Genesis 9:11,15). The seal of this
covenant is HIS Rainbow – HIS promise to never flood the earth again (Genesis 9:17).
This Covenant reveals GOD’s desire that every person would reflect HIS character, have
dominion, be fruitful, being endowed with eternal life and in a covenantal relationship
with HIM.
ABRAHAMIC COVENANT (GOD’s promise and Redemption)
The covenant of Blessings. GOD promised various types of blessings both personally to
Abraham (Genesis 12:2); that he would be a blessing (Genesis 12:3); that his seed
would multiply (Genesis 17:4-8; 16; 26:4) and that Abraham would be a part of the
Messianic line. Out of all of the blessings that were promised to Abraham, GOD also
added a curse where HE promised: “whoever curses you I will curse” (Genesis 12:3b).
The Covenant seal this Covenant is circumcision.
DAVIDIC COVENANT (GOD’s promise and HIS Kingdom)
The Covenant of Kingship. GOD covenanted with David the establishment of an eternal
dynasty which would rule all of earth forever (2 Samuel 7: 16), (Psalms 89:34-38; 27-30).
GOD promised that as long as the eternal ordinances of heaven remained that David
would have a seed upon his throne (Jeremiah 33:19-26).
RENEWED COVENANT (GOD’s promise and Restoration)
An irrevocable covenant solely established by GOD’s promise of “I will” (Jeremiah
31:33-34). This covenant declares that GOD would restore within HIS people a new
heart and mind upon which HIS Torah would be embedded (Hebrews 10:16-17). Luke
22:20 Interestingly, the word “New” in Luke 22:20 is the Greek word “Kainŏs which
doesn’t mean “something new” or unprecedented as we were led to understand, but
rather it’s the word “Freshness.” Thus YESHUA was revealing a “FRESH” view or
understanding of something already in existence – the Covenants of GOD! Taking
GOD’s Covenantal relationship to a whole new level! The greatest promise of this
covenant is the ushering in of the indwelling power of HIS Holy Presence – the Holy
Spirit.
The Renewed Covenant is the set up for the outpouring of Shavuot, the empowerment
of the book Acts as “they turned the world upside down,” and the engrafting of the
nations of Believers otherwise known as the Church.
