A Call to Awaken the Remnant

Beloved,

In these latter days, as the shadows lengthen and the hearts of many grow cold, we, the cherished of the Lord, must heed the call to awaken. For the Holy One of Israel has always preserved a remnant—a faithful few who hold fast to His covenant and walk in His ways. This is not a time for slumber, but for vigilance and fervent devotion.

The prophet Isaiah spoke of this remnant, saying, “Now in that day, the remnant of Israel, and those of the house of Jacob who have escaped, will never again rely on the one who struck them, but will truly rely on the Lord, the Holy One of Israel. A remnant will return, a remnant of Jacob, to the mighty God. For though your people, O Israel, may be as the sand of the sea, only a remnant within them will return; the destruction is determined, overflowing with justice” (Isaiah 10:20-22 AMP).

Even now, as in the days of old, there is a remnant, chosen by grace. Paul the Apostle affirmed this truth, writing, “So too at the present time there is a remnant [a small believing minority], selected [chosen] by grace [God’s unmerited favor and graciousness]” (Romans 11:5 AMP).

And the prophet Joel declared, “And it shall come about that whoever calls on the name of the Lord will be saved; For on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there will be those who escape, as the Lord has said, even among the remnant [of survivors] whom the Lord calls” (Joel 2:32 AMP).

Beloved, we are that remnant, chosen not for our worthiness, but by the unsearchable grace of our Lord. This sacred calling is a trust, a divine mandate to be His light in the encroaching darkness, to be the salt that preserves His truth and love.

Let us, therefore, arise and fulfill our calling:

1. Renew Our Commitment: Draw near to the Lord with sincere hearts, deepening our communion through prayer, worship, and the diligent study of His Word. Let us be vigilant, steadfast in our faith.

2. Stand for Righteousness: In a world where the lines of morality are blurred, we must stand unyielding upon the foundation of God’s truth. Let us be voices crying out in the wilderness, heralds of His righteousness.

3. Proclaim the Gospel: With boldness and love, let us declare the good news of Jesus Christ. For the harvest is plentiful, and the time is short. Whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.

4. Support One Another: As members of this sacred remnant, let us strengthen and encourage one another in love and unity. Together, we are stronger, more resilient against the trials we face.

5. Intercede for the World: Let us lift our prayers before the throne of grace, interceding for our nations, leaders, and communities. Our fervent prayers can bring revival and transformation by the power of the Holy Spirit.

Beloved, now is the time to awaken. Rise up and fulfill the holy calling that has been placed upon you. The Lord our God is with us, and His grace is sufficient for every need. Let us be the remnant that shines His light and advances His kingdom upon the earth.
