the covenant

 

And God said: “This is the sign of the covenant which I make between Me and you, and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations:  I set My rainbow in the cloud, and it shall be for the sign of the covenant between Me and the earth. It shall be, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the rainbow shall be seen in the cloud;  and I will remember My covenant which is between Me and you and every living creature of all flesh; the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh.”
Genesis 9:12-15

What an amazing blessing that we can always trust God’s promises. They aren’t contracts (dependent on if we keep up our end of the bargain)—they’re covenants, and He is faithful to them even when we aren’t.
