"But you, O Israel, my servant, Jacob, whom I have chosen, you descendants of Abraham My friend, I took you from the ends of the earth, from its farthest corners I called you. I said, 'You are my servant'; I have chosen you and have not rejected you. So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with My righteous right hand." Isaiah 41:8-10 (NIV)
The nation of Israel, the descendants of Abraham, were God's chosen people and, because of the remnant of believers, He assured them that He would strengthen them, help them, and uphold them.
Today, Christians are God's chosen people. We enjoy the blessings of the Abrahamic covenant. The blessings that God promised to him, are afforded to us. We can be assured that God will strengthen us, help us, and uphold us.
