Covenants: The Parallels Between the Jewish Shabbat and a Covenant Marriage (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781545675489)

When you begin to view your marriage as a sacred covenant in the eyes of the Father, you can take hold of all that He has destined for your relationship.

In this masterful work of biblical insight, Covenants: The Parallels Between the Shabbat and a Covenant Marriage?, author Dr. W Denise Jackson explores the Creator's plan for marriage and the aspects of His Covenant with His people that are reflected in the union between a man and a woman.

By taking a deeper look at the Shabbat, or Sabbath--a day of rest dedicated to the Father and a sign of His Covenant--you can understand the heart of the Father, and learn how to access His unconditional love in your own relationship with your spouse.

Jackson's book will teach you how to lay a scriptural foundation for your relationship that will transform your marriage into a likeness of the Shabbat as you observe the holiness of the Covenant--both the Father's Covenant through His Son and the Covenant He has established between you and your spouse.

Through her detailed look at biblical texts and Hebrew terminology, Jackson unpacks the nature of Yeshua HaMashiach, or Jesus the Messiah, who models the essential components of marriage as the Bridegroom. As the head of the Body, He has set the standard for husbands to lead their wives, and as the Son submitted to His Father in obedience, He offers wives the perfect illustration of their role to their husbands.

With her profound revelations about an honorable marriage, Jackson's words will inspire you to elevate the giftedness of your covenant marriage and redirect the stability of your marriage back to the Father for His glory. Discover His will for your married life as you recognize His purpose for His Covenant, as well as the individual roles He has given both husbands and wives.

If you are interested in following the Father's divine plan for your marriage or are in a season of waiting for your spouse, this book will serve as your guide to walking into your biblically-based destiny as a married believer.
