Covenants
“The Power of Covenants” Ensign, May 2009, 20; “A covenant is an agreement between God and man, an accord whose terms are set by God (see Bible Dictionary, “Covenant”, 651). In these divine agreements, God binds Himself to sustain, sanctify, and exalt us in return for our commitment to serve Him and keep His commandments.
We enter into covenants by priesthood ordinances, sacred rituals that God has ordained for us to manifest our commitment. . . . If we are faithful, we become inheritors not only of the celestial kingdom but of exaltation, the highest glory within the heavenly kingdom, and we obtain all the divine possibilities God can give (D&C 132:20).”
