Exodus 19:5 (NIV) Now if you obey me fully and keep my covenant, then out of all nations you will be my treasured possession.
They were to be a people who belonged to God: “a kingdom of priests, and a holy nation” (vs. 6). I Peter 2:9 echoes this truth to followers of Jesus Christ today: “But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His wonderful light.” Are we living up to our calling? Are we a holy people? Do we have hearts that are fully devoted to the Lord?
