The Everlasting Covenant
God our Provider and Protector
“But we should lose everything that we have in the world, if we should do as the text says,” we hear it said. Well, even then we should be in no worse circumstances than Christ the Lord was here on earth. But we are to remember that “your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.” 3 He who cares for the sparrows, is able to care for those who commit their case to Him. We see that EVCO 126.2
Isaac was prospered even though he did not “fight for his rights.” The promise which was made to the fathers is also made to us, by the very same God. “When they were but a few men in number; yea, very few, and strangers” in the land; “when they went from one nation to another, and from one kingdom to another people, He suffered no man to do them wrong; yea, He reproved kings for their sakes; saying, Touch not Mine anointed and do My prophets no harm.” 1 That same God still cares for those who put their trust in Him. EVCO 127.1
