Good morning. It is wonderful to face 2024 knowing God is our redeemer. Isaiah reminds us - "I have swept away your offenses like a cloud, your sins like the morning mist. Return to me, for I have redeemed you.” (Isaiah 44:22) Go’el is the root word and refers to the laws of a kinsman redeemer. When a Hebrew had fallen into poverty and sold himself into slavery, property was sold to pay a debt, or a close relative had been murdered the next of kin would be their redeemer. They would pay the penalty, purchase back their relative from slavery, or avenge the death of their murdered kinsman. The laws of the kinsman redeemer were an object lesson for the redemption of the world back to God. Redemption was not an afterthought that God came up with because His children would not obey Him. Redemption was the plan before time began. Christ on the cross would be the price God would pay to redeem the earth and buy back His children. God, our Father, is our Redeemer. He gave everything He had to give us our freedom. Have a great day knowing you have been redeemed. Blessings. Mike and Daphne

Good morning. You have reason to be content today. God is your portion. The idea of our “portion” is a rather strange concept to us. But in the ancient Hebrew culture you knew what the “portion” of the inheritance was at birth. Your portion depended upon your gender and your place in the birth order. As adopted children of God we have an inheritance that is given to us as soon as we are re-born. We are not just heirs of God, but we are co-heirs with Christ. We get the double-portion of inheritance only available to the first-born son!! God not only gives us our portion, but God is our portion! In His presence we find true happiness and satisfaction. We find a desire for Him as well as a delight in being with Him. "Whom have I in heaven but you? And earth has nothing I desire besides you.  My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever." (Psalms 73:25‭-‬26) Blessings. Mike and Daphne

Good morning. David writing in Psalm 43:5 asks, "Why, my soul, are you downcast? Why so disturbed within me?" He then gives us good advice, "Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God." The reason for His response is because he knows God as El Sim Chat Gili. God your exceeding joy. Joy is that deep down satisfaction that comes when what we know is true of God—He is infinitely loving, He is always good, He is unceasingly forgiving—lines up with our experience of God. Joy is not dependent on our circumstances because it is found in the presence of God. We can have joy in our difficulties because we have the expectation that our good and loving Father is taking care of us, through the good and the bad times. Today let us emulate David, "Then I will go to the altar of God, to God, my joy and my delight. I will praise you with the lyre, O God, my God" (Psalms 43:4‭-‬5) Have a joy-filled day. Blessings. Mike and Daphne

ABOUT | Gauteng | Grace Cov Church Our story about us Who is Grace Cov Church? We are a vibrant, colourful, diverse, dedicated, growing church of friends who are: passionate about God, committed to each other, excited by His call to go to our neighbourhoods and the nations, who desire to love, challenge and change our world. We want to do life together, enjoy the journey and make a difference in Centurion and beyond. Life has got to be about more than just fighting the traffic daily and paying the bills. We want to live lives that count, with people who matter to us, serving a God who loves us. Our Story In November 1996, Mike and Daphne Cowie felt God was calling them to plant a church in Lyttelton, Centurion. During January 1997 a team of like-minded people began to connect with Mike and Daphne weekly to pray for the new church. The church was officially planted in February 1997 and met in various locations in Lyttelton until the church members were able to purchase land and build a building at our current premises at 145 Glover Avenue, Centurion. The first meeting held in our own building was on the 19th December 2004. Since then more buildings, play areas and car parks have been added, making this a warm and family friendly place to meet. Mike and Daphne handed over the leadership of Grace Cov Church to Craig and Colette Meyer in February 2011 and they led the church for over 13 years. In October 2024, they moved to Paris, France to join La Cité Church and work together with NCMI into Europe. Craig and Colette transitioned the leadership of Grace Cov Church to Ian and Leeann Oliver. We partner with a group of churches around the world, led by New Covenant Ministries International (NCMI). We exist to know Jesus Christ and make Him known The Bible says, “God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, [Jesus Christ], that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life” (John 3:16). Jesus said, “I came that they may have life and have it abundantly” — a complete life full of purpose (John 10:10). Jesus loves YOU and has a PLAN for you! Find out more
