Blessed is the nation whose God is The Lord; And the people whom He has chosen for His own inheritance.

A PEOPLE SAVED BY THE LORD
Deuteronomy 33:29
Happy are you, O Israel: who is like unto you, O people saved by The LORD, The Shield of your help, and Who is the sword of your excellency! and your enemies shall be found liars unto you; and you shall tread upon their high places.
Romans 10:11-13
For the Scripture says, “Whosoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.”
For there is no difference between Jew and Greek: The same Lord is Lord of all, and gives richly to all who call on Him,
for, “Everyone who calls on The Name of The Lord will be saved.”
Philippians 2:9-11
Therefore God exalted Him to the highest place and gave Him The Name Above All Names,
that at The Name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
1 Peter 2:9
But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people; that you should show forth the praises of Him Who has called you out of darkness into His marvellous light:
who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy.

The nation whose God is The Lord is the nation that bows its knee and declares that Jesus Christ is Lord. There is no nation in this world that is completely committed to a humble dependence on God, except for the nation whose God is The Lord.
Yet, the nation that stands out from all other nations is the generation of the righteous, the pure in heart. This generation is set apart from all other generational descriptions, for it extends from time past to time present to time future. It is a holy nation, a peculiar people. It is the generation that seeks God. [Psalm 24:6].
We are foreigners in this world. The things of God are alien to this world. We are hated because we bear The Name of Christ and are sealed by His Holy Spirit. We are condemned for the cause of the gospel; judged, imprisoned, tortured, and killed for His Name's sake. [2 Timothy 1:7-9].
The people whom God has chosen for His own inheritance are the people who have chosen to have Him as their God. [Joshua 24:15]. It is a mutual relationship with Christ at its center. For we cannot get near God until we are born by faith into The Name Above All Names which brings us into His family through the blood of His Only Begotten Son Jesus Christ. [1 Corinthians 1:30; John 1:12,13].
Is this blessing on you? Are you of the nation whose God is The Lord?
