Awakening to the New Covenant in Christ: Embracing Our True Identity

Pastor Jeremy Eastman delivers a powerful reminder that in Christ, we have been given a new identity, a new heart, and a new way to access the power and presence of God. His message, "Awakening to the New Covenant," calls believers to fully embrace the life-changing promises of God — not just in theory, but in everyday living.

Discover how awakening to the new covenant transforms your life and strengthens your Christian walk.

Experiencing God's Presence Today

Pastor Jeremy begins by encouraging the congregation to slow down and become aware of God's presence — a presence that brings peace, healing, and hope. He reminds us that recognizing and receiving God's presence is essential for spiritual growth.

This posture of awareness sets the stage for the deeper awakening he describes: an awakening to the fullness of the new covenant in Christ.

Awakening to the New Covenant: A Call to Spiritual Renewal

Many believers today have accepted Christ but are not fully living in the promises of the new covenant. Pastor Jeremy uses a vivid analogy — waking up physically but remaining mentally foggy — to illustrate how easy it is to live beneath the spiritual inheritance God has provided.

He challenges the body of Christ to stop settling for a limited experience and step boldly into the abundant life Jesus offers. As he explains, living with an “old covenant mindset” keeps us trapped in performance and striving, while the new covenant invites us into freedom, intimacy, and power.

Embracing Your New Identity in Christ

One of the foundational truths Pastor Jeremy shares is the need to awaken to our new identity in Christ. Quoting 2 Corinthians 5:17, he reminds us:

"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!"

Under the old covenant, people were judged by their ability to uphold the law. But in the new covenant, we are made righteous through faith. Pastor Jeremy also references John 1:12, showing that through Christ, we are adopted as sons and daughters of God.

At ChapelMinistry.com, we believe knowing your true Christian identity is key to living a victorious and purpose-driven life.

Awakening to a New Heart and Spirit

The new covenant doesn't just change our status — it changes our very hearts. Pastor Jeremy points to Hebrews 8:10 and Ezekiel 36:26–27, where God promises to write His laws on our hearts and give us a new spirit.

Rather than living by external rules, we now live from internal transformation. As Pastor Jeremy shares, obedience under the new covenant flows from love and relationship, not fear or obligation.

When believers awaken to the reality of a transformed heart, they can experience true freedom in their walk with God.

Accessing the Throne of Grace with Confidence

One of the most beautiful aspects of the new covenant is our direct access to God. Pastor Jeremy reminds us that because of Jesus’s sacrifice, the veil was torn (Hebrews 4:16). We no longer need an intermediary; we can boldly approach the throne of grace.

At ChapelMinistry.com, we encourage believers to walk confidently in this access, knowing that God welcomes His children into His presence at any time.

This intimate access changes how we pray, how we worship, and how we experience daily life with the Father.

Awakening to Resurrection Power Within You

Pastor Jeremy continues by highlighting Romans 8:11:

"And if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of His Spirit who lives in you."

The same Spirit that raised Christ now lives within every believer. This resurrection power isn't about trying harder — it's about yielding more fully to God’s Spirit.

By awakening to this power, Christians can overcome sin, endure trials, and walk boldly in their God-given callings.

Living Fully in the New Covenant: A Challenge to the Church

As he concludes, Pastor Jeremy issues a heartfelt challenge: stop striving, and start living fully in the grace, identity, and promises of Christ.

He reminds the congregation that while the old covenant was based on human effort and law-keeping, the new covenant is based on Christ's perfect obedience and the unmerited favor of God.

Through prayer, Pastor Jeremy invites believers to step into their rightful place as beloved children of God and to bring the life-changing reality of the new covenant into their families, churches, and communities.
