Isabel has walked in a faith Covenant relationship with the LORD, for approximately thirty years. In 1979 God called her to give up her work in the secular world, sell all that she owned and go to the Philippines. She was led into the mountain regions of Kalinga Apayao, to preach the gospel to the headhunting tribal people. The LORD worked with her confirming the preaching of His Word, with miraculous signs and wonders. This is recorded in her latest book, "THE MESSAGE TO THE CHURCH". She is also the author of Arise and Reap, Reaping with Joy and Come out of her, my People. In January 2000, Isabel returned to the Philippines on her fifth ministry mission. She was told by the Lord, to build and oversee a work which was to be named "Covenant Keepers", as the Lord desired to raise up a body of people who would walk in a faith Covenant relationship with Him. All was accomplished by the Lord's leading and provision. The Lord taught us that He is the Covenant keeping God, who has redeemed His saints from the curse of the law (Gal. 13:3).The curse of the law is sickness, pain, disease, suffering, poverty and the second death, which is eternal damnation in the lake of fire and brimstone (Duet. 28:15-61 & Rev. 21:8). In the Everlasting Covenant agreement which is sealed with the holy redeeming blood of the Lord Jesus Christ, God has freely provided forgiveness of sin, eternal life, imputed righteousness, divine provision, divine protection, and divine health for His redeemed saints. To walk in all the blessings of the Everlasting Covenant, we must first understand what blessings were freely provided in the Atonement in the Lord Jesus Christ, and take the blessings by faith. As you apply the teaching in this manual, you will learn to be a Covenant keeper, who will walk in all the blessings of the Everlasting Covenant.
