The Remnant

 
Rom 9:27  Esaias also crieth concerning Israel, Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved:
 
A remnant: a remaining, usually small part, quantity, number, or the like. Although the children of Israel number as the sand of the sea, only a small part shall be saved. 
 

Rom 9:28  For he will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness: because a short work will the Lord make upon the earth.
 
Time will come when it will be all over.
 
Rev 22:10  And he saith unto me, Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book: for the time is at hand.
Rev 22:11  He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.
Rev 22:12  And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.
Rev 22:13  I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.
Rev 22:14  Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
Rev 22:15  For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.
 
The time is short and the people of faith are being separated from the larger group of people. 
 
Random thoughts of the remnant:
 
 
Noah and his family were the remnant in his time. Again it is as the time of Noah. Come out from the world into the ark of Jesus. He is the door to God. The Holy Spirit opens the door through our faith, Jesus will close the door to unbelief and we will go to him.Draw closer to Jesus, keep from flesh talk and thoughts and put on the mind of Christ and faith. Speak the word in season, do the work God has given to you. When the door is shut, a time of tribulation will come upon the earth. God will anoint His servants in Israel to preach the kingdom message, many people will die in unbelief and others as martyrs. These things must be. Satan is running about as a roaring lion and most the world is running along side of him, in rebellion. Satan has no one he loves. He is a liar a thief and a killer.
 
People of faith. You are few. Strengthen that which remains and walk in the Spirit, the time is short.
