In its simplest form, a “covenant” is an agreement to do or to not do something. Covenants are unconditional promises found in contracts. When God made a covenant with Noah not to destroy the earth by flood again (Gen 9:11), He tokenised this covenant with the rainbow. God's covenant with Noah and the earth was a covenant of grace because the performance of that covenant by God is not dependent on how well Noah behaved. 

The covenant of peace that we enjoy in Christ is also a covenant of grace where God has promised not to be angry with us or rebuke us. you. This is the covenant of shalom that God has made with us, His people. God’s covenant promise is that His shalom (“peace, prosperity, success, wholeness, and well-being”) will be our portion all our days on the earth. 

Get this: God is never angry with you. He’s not disappointed in you. He sees you as you were meant to be and He doesn’t hold anything against you.
