Sign Of God's Covenant

 The rainbow is a simple, visible Sign Of God's Covenant of grace to His creation that is recorded in His written Word, and when we see a rainbow in the sky, it is certainly a cause of comfort. It occurs when the white light of the sun falls onto droplets of water, refracting into the glorious display we love to witness after the storm-clouds have thundered past. But we do not need a visible sign to trust the Word of God.
 The sign that God sent to the earth over 2000 years ago is of far greater consequence. God sent His Son into the world to die and to rise again the third day so that whosoever trusts in Him as Savior will not perish but have everlasting life. We may not have a sign in the sky, but we have a more sure Word of promise in the Scripture. God's Word can never be broken!
 Let us praise our covenant keeping God for all His loving-kindness and tender mercies to us and to all men and women, and let us live by faith in the Son of God Who loves us and gave Himself for us by taking upon Himself the judgement that we deserve so that His multi-colored-grace can shine in our hearts throughout all eternity. 
Genesis 9:13 I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth.

Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank You for Your many precious promises. When the storm-clouds of life are thundering in on all sides, help us to trust Your Word and to remember the promises You have made to all Your children. May the sight of a beautiful rainbow remind us that Your Word cannot be broken and that all Your promises are true. Hallelujah! In Jesus' name we Pray, AMEN.
