📖 “For you are a holy people to the Lord your God; the Lord your God has chosen you to be a special people, above all the peoples who are on the earth.”

— Deuteronomy 7:6 (RVR1960)

🟡 What does this mean?

This verse reminds us that God has chosen us to be His special people.

That means we are important to Him and He wants us to live in a different way, full of love, kindness, and obedience to His Word.

We are not special because of our strength, but because God loves us and has set us apart to live close to Him.

🧠 Let's think for a moment

Have you ever had something very valuable that you take great care of?

That is how we are to God: a special treasure that He cares for and protects.

Being part of His people means we have the privilege of living under His love and care every day.

🙌 What can we do today?

Remembering that we are valuable to God and that He takes care of us

Living in a way that pleases Him, showing love and respect to others

Thanking God for choosing us as His special people

Not forgetting that our identity is in Him, not in what others say

💬 Phrase to remember

👉 I am special to God because He chose me and loves me.

🙏 Final prayer

Lord, thank You for choosing me to be part of Your special people. Help me to live each day as Your child, showing love and obedience. Always remind me that my worth is in You and not in what the world says. Amen. 🙏
