Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord and the people who He has chosen for His own inheritance. PS 33:12
God chose Israel as His nation, to be His own possession, and kept His covenant. He chose them to be His own inheritance. Through Israel, our Lord Jesus Christ, the Redeemer of the world was born and through Him, extended His plan of Salvation to all the world. How blessed is the nation of Israel!
Like Israel, the Church also holds a special place in God’s redemptive plan. Being saved by grace and faith in Lord Jesus Christ, those who are born again are united into the Body of Christ. We are given the power of the indwelling Holy Spirit. We are His chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession. (1 Pet 2:9). How blessed is the Church to have Him as our God!
We being God's inheritance, our citizenship is in heaven. As we eagerly await the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, may we continue to be His witness and work in His kingdom, to bring many to faith in Lord Jesus Christ!
