The blessings of #deuteronomy 7-8 are national, not individual, but national blessings stem from individual blessings. The nation can't be blessed unless individuals are blessed. If you want God's blessings, encourage your nation to keep His commandments and keep them yourself!
Did you know that the Bible contains a list of ways to love your neighbor? They're called "commandments", but they are much more than that.

Yeshua fed the 5000 with five barley loaves just before Passover at the start of the barley harvest. Torah forbids eating from the new harvest until after the FirstFruits harvest during Passover, so this bread was made from the previous year's harvest. Perhaps five barley loaves from the old harvest is metaphor of people fed by Torah.
John 6:9
The disciples collected twelve baskets of leftovers after everyone had eaten their fill. These are the faithful remnant of Israel gathered from the nations.
John 6:13
