There are at least 32 covenants described in the Bible and probably many more that aren't explicitly called "covenants".
There are some basic facts that can be extrapolated from the Biblical treatment of covenants:
1. Covenants generally require some kind of bloodshed to "seal" them. Hebrews 9 makes this explicit, although it is frequently and bizarrely mistranslated as talking about a "will" instead of a covenant. Those are completely unrelated ideas, and a covenant never requires the death of either party of the covenant. It requires the blood (and usually the death) of a sacrificial victim.
2. No new covenant cancels or changes an older covenant. A new covenant between the same parties can enhance their existing relationship, but it doesn't annul anything in the older covenant.
3. Breaking a covenant doesn't cancel the covenant, but it does carry consequences.
4. Covenants can be made between people, groups of people, spiritual entities, and any combination of these.
5. A covenant can be annulled by a higher authority who is not a party to the covenant, but not on a whim. If the higher authority lets the covenant stand for a period of time, he can't change his mind later and then annul it without incurring guilt and consequences on himself.
6. Promises, oaths, contracts, and statements aren't covenants unless there is bloodshed involved. A covenant is a more serious affair than any of these.
What is restoration? How do we achieve it?
Is it true that the way we view history shapes how we walk out our future? If it is true, then we would be wise to learn about our past - the bad things as well as the good.
This is the framework of the conversation Barry Phillips and David Jones share about the 9th of Av - the Fast of the Fifth Month mentioned in Zechariah 8:19. Our Jewish brethren have observed this fast for many centuries. It might be good to learn why - especially if we would like to see healing, reconciliation, and restoration to these two halves of God's Covenant People.

Good Morning ☀️ ??
During the first century AD, Rome was the only superpower. Today there are three powerful nations in the world, The United States, Russia and China. Each of these has the same thing in common. Romans 1:25, “ They traded the truth of God for a lie and worshiped and served things that were made by man. But they did not worship and serve the God who made those things. God should be praised forever. Amen.” There are many believers in these nations but the leadership has rejected the Creator and He will not allow that to continue. When and how He choose to discipline the world is up to Him, the job of the faithful is to trust and obey.
Thought for Today: Thursday August 08
We place our trust in the one we love and the degree to which we love, determines how much we trust. If we love our Moshiach dearly, we surely shall also trust Him to the utmost.
