Amos 3:1-2 - Hear this word, people of Israel, the word the LORD has spoken against you—against the whole family I brought up out of Egypt: “You only have I chosen of all the families of the earth; therefore I will punish you for all your sins.”
Exodus 19:5-6 - Now if you obey me fully and keep my covenant, then out of all nations you will be my treasured possession. Although the whole earth is mine, you will be for me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.’ These are the words you are to speak to the Israelites.”
Deuteronomy 7:6 - For you are a people holy to the LORD your God. The LORD your God has chosen you out of all the peoples on the face of the earth to be his people, his treasured possession.
Application:
· Does my present strength and prosperity give rise to complacency about my privileged status as the Lord's chosen?
· Am I part of the Lord's kingdom? Am I wholly consecrated to His service?
· Am I separated from all corrupting people and things? Am I consecrated totally to the Lord?
