Hosea 8:8 - Israel is swallowed up; now she is among the nations like something no one wants.
Exodus 19:5 - 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.”
Amos 3:2 - “You only have I chosen of all the families of the earth; therefore I will punish you for all your sins.”
Application:
· Am I chosen to be part of God's people? Have I conformed to others? Have I become worthless to God?
· Am I obedient and faithful? God is the Creator and Possessor of the earth and everything in it.
· Am I complacent about my privileged status as one of God's chosen? Do I recognize the responsibilities of being chosen?
