What are the tokens of being in the everlasting covenant?

Answered in 1 source

The tokens of being in the everlasting covenant include personal assurance, ordered providence, and desires aligned with God.

In the sermon, several tokens are identified that signify being part of the everlasting covenant. First, there are 'personal things' where believers can affirm their place in the covenant through their own experiences and relationship with God, as seen in David's declaration of 'my salvation.' Second, there are 'ordered things,' signifying that God orchestrates events in believers' lives with purpose, as demonstrated in the biblical accounts of Joseph and Abraham. Lastly, 'desired things' indicate that believers will have an intrinsic longing for God and His kingdom, as stated in Hebrews that they seek a better country. These tokens serve as assurances that God has indeed made a covenant with His people, and they can testify to its effects in their lives.
