peculiar people


Ex.19:5 Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine:
Deut.14:2 For thou art an holy people unto the LORD thy God, and the LORD hath chosen thee to be a peculiar people unto himself, above all the nations that are upon the earth.
Deut.26:18 And the LORD hath avouched thee this day to be his peculiar people, as he hath promised thee, and that thou shouldest keep all his commandments;
Ps.135:4 For the LORD hath chosen Jacob unto himself, and Israel for his peculiar treasure.
Eccl.2:8 I gathered me also silver and gold, and the peculiar treasure of kings and of the provinces: I gat me men singers and women singers, and the delights of the sons of men, as musical instruments, and that of all sorts.
Peculiar- Hebrew segûllâh/ seg-ool-law'/ -closely guarded, jewel, peculiar treasure, proper good, Speacial!

This concept in no way speaks against tribulation but rather is about the type people who stand in tribulation.
YHVH is pleased when sees one embracing His WORD /will and ways (LAW). Its a sure way to Praise him and show him Love: Jn. 14:15,21,23,24, Jn.15:10, Jn.15:15, 1 Jn.2:5, 1 Jn.5:2, Ex.20:6, Deut.5:10, Deut.7:9, Deut.11:1, 22 Deut.30:16, Josh 22:5, Neh.1:5,
Such people are seen as the apple of God's eye (heavily protected and guarded)
Deut.32:10, Ps.17:8, Prov.7:2, Zech.2:8
The Spiritual elect shall be Sealed as they embrace The WORD. God gives understanding. The heart knower created us for his pleasure. If he be for you who can be against you? God comforts his people from within, and The Law is a Blessing not a curse. A shepherd carries a staff for our own good. Its when we break the Law and stary from The shepherd that we find ourselves in trouble. (We know, all have sinned and fallen short of the Glory of God, and that the the knowledge of sin is to know the Law) One with a Ongoing Relationship with YHVH seeks to do good in his heart and knows it is he that is The Way The Truth and The Light.
Jn.10:28- 29 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.
