7 Covenants - What Happens When We Break God's Covenants?

7 Covenants - What Happens When We Break God's Covenants?

This is the final post in the 7 Covenants series.  Over the past couple months we studied each covenant in detail:

#1 Adamic/Edenic

#2 Noahic

#3 Abrahamic

#4 Mosaic (as in Moses)

#5 Levitical/Priestly

#6 Davidic

#7 New

Today we will be focusing on:  

What happens when we break God's covenants?

Just to be very clear, we will again begin by defining the word:

Covenant - a solemn, binding agreement established by God with individuals or groups.  It involves promises, blessings and stipulations that underscore the relationship between God and His people.

And then let's define two words from the definition of covenant above: solemn & binding.

Solemn- very serious;  done with the utmost sincerity

Binding- imposing an obligation

We have touched on some of the serious consequences of breaking God's covenants in the past posts.  Like the one below - the consequences that happened (and consequences are still in effect for us today) when Adam & Eve disobeyed God's command to stay away from the "Tree of Knowledge".

(see passage below):

Then, we see in both passages in Deuteronomy (see next 2 pictures below) that there are very serious consequences for worshiping other gods.

Our Heavenly Father will cause droughts and everyone who broke His covenant will starve and perish.

God finds anyone who breaks His covenants detestable.  

Let's define detestable - deserving abhorrence;  

                   -  abominable;

                                 -  worthy of being hated.

More idol worship by the Israelites (see below) caused God to pour out His fury on them.  God scattered and dispersed the Israelites throughout the countries. 

God will disregard His people when they fail to keep His covenant.

Let's define 

disregard - ignore, 

                                   -  pay no attention to  

The clearest Bible passage is in Hebrews (see below) explaining what it really is like to reject Jesus Christ.

- treating the blood of the covenant as an unholy thing is like trampling the Son of God underfoot

- and it is insulting the Holy Spirit (grieving the Holy Spirit is the unforgivable sin - Mark 3:29)

It is obvious that "chosen people" can lose their favored status if they reject Jesus Christ.

Keeping God's covenant is serious business with dire/eternal consequences when the covenants are broken.

Garden Abundance of 2025 (with RECIPES)

Garden Abundance of 2025 (with RECIPES)

For the past few years our garden was attacked by critters (squirrels, chipmunks, deer and the worst of all - ground hogs).  Well, this year we became a little smarter and bought some protecting mesh fabric for certain garden rows.  For the most part it worked!  We still did have a resident groundhog but we were able to keep the damage from totally destroying our harvest.  (click HERE to see the damage from last year) 

Since we were wise, we had a wonderful garden of abundance!!!  I am praising my Heavenly Father for his provision and amazing creation.

Here are the crops of abundance from this year:

- peppers

- zucchini

- blackberries

- apricots

- strawberries

Click on any titles below to view any RECIPES

PEPPERS

This is the first year that we canned pepper jam.  I did not share this recipe on the blog but I will have to do so next year because we loved it - Very delicious.

The next two recipes have peppers in the ingredients but they are not pepper focused recipes:

Mom's Simple Savory Salad

&

5 Different Dishes Made From Home Canned Tomato Sauce 

(the sauce has peppers as one of the ingredients)

ZUCCHINI

My favorite zucchini variety is a climber called "Tromboncino Zucchini".  The vines from this variety have such amazing tendrils - I included a post about "tendrils" below also:

BLACKBERRIES

The blackberry patch has spread beyond my imagination!

Garden Fresh Blackberry Ice Cream

&

Blackberry Iced Tea 

APRICOTS

Our apricots were on the small size but totally abundant in amount.  

Apricot Sauce/Syrup RECIPE

&

Homemade Apricot Ice Cream

STRAWBERRIES

Our strawberry patch is getting better and better every year.  Below are a few new RECIPES:

Chocolate Ganache Strawberries

&
