Seeking the Father Series Ch.4: Covenant Unveiled.

A message to Believers….

To seek the Father fervently is to engage His covenant—not as a theological concept, but as a living, relational commitment. Covenant is not a contract—it is a bond of love, loyalty, and identity. It is the framework through which the Father reveals Himself, binds Himself to His people, and invites them into intimacy. To seek Him rightly, one must understand the nature of covenant, the reliability of His promises, the identity of His people, and the integrity of His voice. This is not a study of doctrine—it is the pursuit of relationship.

The covenant of the Father is not a human invention—it is a divine initiation. It is the way He chooses to relate, to reveal, and to redeem. In Genesis 17:7, He says to Abraham, “I will establish My covenant between Me and you and your descendants after you throughout their generations as an everlasting covenant, to be God to you and to your descendants after you.” This is not a temporary arrangement—it is an everlasting bond. Covenant is the language of divine fidelity. It is the assurance that the Father does not abandon, does not forget, does not betray. To seek Him is to trust that His covenant is not fragile—it is eternal.

His promises are not vague hopes—they are anchored in covenantal reliability. They are not motivational slogans—they are declarations of intent. In Numbers 23:19, it is written, “God is not a man, that He would lie, nor a son of man, that He would change His mind; has He said, and will He not do it? Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good?” His promises are not subject to mood or circumstance—they are rooted in His nature. To seek the Father is to hold fast to what He has spoken, even when the evidence seems contrary. It is to believe that what He promised, He will perform—not because we are faithful, but because He is.

His people are not a random group—they are a chosen vessel. Israel is not merely a nation—it is the relational conduit through which the Father has revealed His covenant, His character, and His calendar. In Deuteronomy 14:2, He says, “For you are a holy people to the Lord your God, and the Lord has chosen you to be a people for His personal possession out of all the peoples who are on the face of the earth.” This chosenness is not elitism—it is responsibility. It is the call to steward revelation, to embody covenant, to live as a light to the nations. To seek the Father is to honor His people—not replace them, not erase them, but recognize their role in the unfolding of His plan.

The Scriptures are not a collection of religious texts—they are the covenantal archive of divine speech. But they must be approached with reverence and precision. The English Bible is not the original—it is a translation, often filtered through theological bias and linguistic flattening. To seek the Father is to return to the Hebraic texts, to study the language in which He spoke, to discern the voices within the narrative. Voice attribution is not academic—it is relational. It is the discipline of knowing who is speaking, to whom, and in what context. It is the refusal to confuse the serpent’s voice with the Father’s, or to attribute human distortion to divine intent. In 2 Timothy 3:16, it says, “All Scripture is inspired by God and beneficial for teaching, for rebuke, for correction, for training in righteousness.” But inspiration does not negate interpretation. To seek the Father is to interpret rightly, to handle the word with care, to pursue truth with humility.

Covenantal literacy is not optional—it is essential. It is the ability to read Scripture through the lens of relationship, not religion. It is the skill of tracing divine patterns, recognizing prophetic trajectories, and discerning relational invitations. It is the posture of one who says, “Open my eyes, that I may behold wonderful things from Your Law” (Psalm 119:18). It is the hunger of one who declares, “Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path” (Psalm 119:105). It is the discipline of one who commits, “I have treasured Your word in my heart, so that I may not sin against You” (Psalm 119:11).

To engage His covenant is to enter the story—not as a spectator, but as a participant. It is to recognize that the Father has always been pursuing intimacy, always been inviting relationship, always been restoring what was lost. From Eden to Sinai, from exile to return, from Yehoshua’s embodiment to the outpouring of the Spirit—the covenant has always been about presence. It has always been about proximity. It has always been about love.

This is not a theological exercise—it is a relational awakening. It is the realization that the Father has bound Himself to His people, has spoken promises that cannot fail, has preserved a people through whom He reveals Himself, and has given Scriptures that must be handled with reverence. To seek Him fervently is to engage this covenant fully—to live as one who is bound, beloved, and beholding. It is to say with the psalmist, “The Lord is my portion; I have promised to keep Your words” (Psalm 119:57). It is to walk in the integrity of relationship, not the convenience of religion. It is to live as one who knows the covenant—and is known by the One who gave it.
