In keeping with [the oath’s greater strength and force], Jesus has become the Guarantee of a better (stronger) agreement [a more excellent and more advantageous covenant]. Hebrews 7:22 AMP

Being “secure” in life guarantees wholeness, wellbeing and rest. For example; insurance companies help individuals with their pension schemes, thus ensuring their financial security after retirement is secure. And there are different kinds of insurance: health, house, vehicle etc. Whatever the terms are, once there is loss of the insured property, you can file in your claim and get your property back. You have a sense of safety and assurance that you would not suffer in the likely event of loss.

But these schemes have a price tag: your monthly, quarterly or yearly contributions uphold your part of the transaction. The same way beloved, the Word of God had to become like one of us in order to take our place. He paid our end of the bargain, which we would never had been able to pay. It required someone who had no trace of sin and no one was found, except the Son of God: tempted but sinless.

Not only did He pay the price and ransom, He also became our substitute. He struck a covenant with God on our behalf insuring us in this new covenant that can never be broken because, unlike the old covenant which was between man and God, this is between God and God. Now we are recipients of this covenant and therein is security. Beloved, you are secure in Christ forever and nothing can be able to separate you from the love of the Father. The redemption that we have is not temporary but eternal. Have a confident assurance that Christ lives forever as your high priest.

Prayer: Thank you Lord for I am secure in you. Christ in me is the Hope of Glory.
