The secret of the Lord is with those who fear Him, and He will show them His covenant. Psalm 25:14

The knowledge of the LORD and understanding of His covenant of mercy toward us is revealed to those who honor and revere the LORD God for who He is.

Through His Word, the Spirit of God reveals to us our utter sinfulness and failures to keep His holy commandments but also reveals to us our Savior, the Son of God made man that He might keep the law for us and bear the curse and punishment for all our sins by His innocent sufferings and death upon the cross.

Jesus Christ, by His atoning sacrifice on the cross for the sins of the world, established a new covenant of mercy and forgiveness whereby all who trust in Christ are forgiven and accepted by God as His dear children. Under this new covenant, their sins are washed away in Jesus’ blood and God grants to them the everlasting joys of heaven.

Show us Your truth, O God and reveal to us Your covenant of mercy in Christ Jesus, our God and Savior. Amen.
