The Father’s Covenant Building Generations of Faith ‭‭Genesis‬ ‭17‬:‭1‬-‭9‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ “When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to Abram and said to him, “I am Almighty God; walk before Me and be blameless. And I will make My covenant between Me and you, and will multiply you exceedingly.” Then Abram fell on his face, and God talked with him, saying: “As for Me, behold, My covenant is with you, and you shall be a father of many nations. No longer shall your name be called Abram, but your name shall be Abraham; for I have made you a father of many nations. I will make you exceedingly fruitful; and I will make nations of you, and kings shall come from you. And I will establish My covenant between Me and you and your descendants after you in their generations, for an everlasting covenant, to be God to you and your descendants after you. Also I give to you and your descendants after you the land in which you are a stranger, all the land of Canaan, as an everlasting possession; and I will be their God.” And God said to Abraham: “As for you, you shall keep My covenant, you and your descendants after you throughout their generations.” ‭‭Genesis‬ ‭17‬:‭1‬-‭9‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ Genesis 17:1-8 “I will establish My covenant between Me and you and your descendants after you in their generations, for an everlasting covenant…” (Genesis 17:7 NKJV) Today we celebrate fathers. God is looking for SPIRITUAL FATHERS MEN & WOMEN who will carry His promises Teach His ways Raise the next generation to know Him The Abrahamic Covenant reveals God’s blueprint for generational blessing. God did not simply bless Abraham. God made Abraham a father. Not just of Isaac. Not just of Israel. But a spiritual father to all who believe. ⸻ The Covenant Is Established Through Relationship ‭‭Genesis‬ ‭12‬:‭3‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ “I will bless those who bless you, And I will curse him who curses you; And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.” ‭‭Genesis‬ ‭12‬:‭3‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ Before God gave Abraham land, wealth, or descendants, He called Abraham into relationship. God’s covenant was not based on Abraham’s perfection. It was based on God’s promise. Abraham Character • He obeyed God’s voice. • He walked by faith. • He trusted God in impossible circumstances. Who qualifies Spiritual fathers are not perfect men. They are men who walk with God. The greatest gift a father can give is a genuine relationship with Jesus Christ. Our children need examples more than explanations. ⸻ The Covenant Was Designed For Generations Genesis 17:7 “I will establish My covenant between Me and you and your descendants after you…” God thinks generationally. Most people think about today. God thinks about TOMORROW. Abraham’s Assignment: Bless so FUTURE generations! Spiritual Fathers MUST Think Beyond Themselves ASK: • Who am I mentoring? • Who am I discipling? • Who am I raising up? • What legacy will remain after I am gone? Center Church Vision We are building a Kingdom legacy. We are raising: • Future PASTORS • Future BUSINESS LEADERS • Future MISSIONARIES • Future WORSHIP LEADERS • Future godly FATHERS & MOTHERS ⸻ The Covenant Instruction Genesis 18:19 “For I have known him, in order that he may command his children and his household after him…” God trusted Abraham to teach his family. Deposit in them: • God’s Word • God’s values • God’s ways Spiritual Fathers Must TEACH Our culture is discipling our children every day. • Sin • Sexuality • Humanism If fathers do not teach the truth, the world will teach them lies! Teach: • Prayer • Worship • Integrity • Service • Faith • Generosity Every Man At Center Church Whether you have children or not: You can become a spiritual father. Paul became one. Barnabas became one. Timothy received one. Every generation needs mentors. ⸻ The Covenant Was Fulfilled Through Christ Galatians 3:29 “And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.” The Abrahamic Covenant reaches us through Jesus. Today every believer is CONNECTED to Abraham’s blessing THROUGH FAITH. What We Inherit • Salvation • Righteousness • Purpose • Spiritual authority • Kingdom citizenship • Generational blessing What We Must Pass Forward The covenant was RECEIVED BY FAITH. It must be PASSED ON by FAITH. ⸻ Spiritual Fathers Build What They May Never Personally See Hebrews 11:8-10 Abraham never saw the fullness of what God promised. Yet he kept building. He kept believing. He kept obeying. Spiritual Fathers Truth Some seeds you plant today will not fully bloom until future generations. • Abraham planted THE COVENANT • Isaac continued THE COVENANT • Jacob expanded THE COVENANT • Joseph preserved THE COVENANT • Moses delivered THE COVENANT • Joshua possessed THE COVENANT • Jesus fulfilled THE COVENANT Legacy Principle What God starts in one generation, He completes through several generations.

Basis For Prosperity “Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers. For I rejoiced greatly when brethren came and testified of the truth that is in you, just as you walk in the truth. I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth.” ‭‭III John‬ ‭1‬:‭2‬-‭4‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ “Beloved, you do faithfully whatever you do for the brethren and for strangers, who have borne witness of your love before the church. If you send them forward on their journey in a manner worthy of God, you will do well, because they went forth for His name’s sake, taking nothing from the Gentiles.” ‭‭III John‬ ‭1‬:‭5‬-‭7‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ “Dear friend, you have always been faithful in helping other followers of the Lord, even the ones you didn't know before. They have told the church about your love. They say you were good enough to welcome them and to send them on their mission in a way God's servants deserve. When they left to tell others about the Lord, they decided not to accept help from anyone who wasn't a follower.” ‭‭3 John‬ ‭1‬:‭5‬-‭7‬ ‭CEV‬‬ “We must support people like them, so we can take part in what they are doing to spread the truth.” ‭‭3 John‬ ‭1‬:‭8‬ ‭CEV‬‬ “I wrote to the church. But Diotrephes likes to be the number-one leader, and he won't pay any attention to us. So if I come, I will remind him of how he has been attacking us with gossip. Not only has he been doing this, but he refuses to welcome any of the Lord's followers who come by. And when other church members want to welcome them, he puts them out of the church.” ‭‭3 John‬ ‭1‬:‭9‬-‭10‬ ‭CEV‬‬ “Dear friend, don't imitate the evil deeds of others, but follow the example of people who do kind deeds. They are God's children, but those who are always doing evil have never seen God.” ‭‭3 John‬ ‭1‬:‭11‬ ‭CEV‬‬ “We must support people like them, so we can TAKE PART in what they are doing to spread the truth.” ‭‭3 John‬ ‭1‬:‭8‬ ‭CEV‬‬ “The Lord has made me very grateful that at last you have thought about me once again. Actually, you were thinking about me all along, but you didn't have any chance to show it. I am not complaining about having too little. I have learned to be satisfied with whatever I have. I know what it is to be poor or to have plenty, and I have lived under all kinds of conditions. I know what it means to be full or to be hungry, to have too much or too little. Christ gives me the strength to face anything.” ‭‭Philippians‬ ‭4‬:‭10‬-‭13‬ ‭CEV‬‬ “It was good of you to help me when I was having such a hard time. My friends at Philippi, you remember what it was like when I started preaching the good news in Macedonia. After I left there, you were the only church that became my PARTNER by GIVING blessings and by RECEIVING them in return. Even when I was in Thessalonica, you helped me more than once. I am not trying to get something from you, but I want you to receive the blessings that come from GIVING.” ‭‭Philippians‬ ‭4‬:‭14‬-‭17‬ ‭CEV‬‬ “I have been paid back everything, and WITH INTEREST. I am completely satisfied with the gifts you sent with Epaphroditus. They are like a sweet-smelling offering or like the right kind of sacrifice that pleases God. I pray that God will take care of all your needs with the wonderful blessings that come from Christ Jesus!” ‭‭Philippians‬ ‭4‬:‭18‬-‭19‬ ‭CEV‬‬
