How do we know we are part of God's covenant?

The assurance of being part of God's covenant comes through the promise of His Word and the work of Christ. Romans 11 elaborates on how through faith, believers are grafted into the olive tree, symbolizing God's covenant community. Understanding our position as branches in this tree reminds us that we are nourished by Christ, who is the root. This covenantal relationship is a gift that includes the promise of His sustaining grace and participation in the blessings shared among God's people (Romans 11:17-18).
