A remnant is defined as a small surviving group of people. It is sometimes defined as something left over. At other times it is defined as a leftover piece of fabric remaining after the rest has been used up or sold.
During the days of the Prophet Isaiah, God gave Isaiah a vision of Israel. The vision was told by Isaiah in Isaiah 1:1-9. Isaiah said the nation had become “a sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evildoers, children that are corrupters: they have forsaken the Lord, they have provoked the Holy One of Israel unto anger, they are gone away backward.’ Isaiah went onto say in verse 9, “Except the Lord of hosts had left unto us a SMALL REMNANT, we should have been as Sodom, and we should have been like unto Gomorrah.”
In the book of Malachi the final book of the Old Testament we read in Chapter 3
16 Then those who feared the LORD spoke to one another, and the LORD gave attention and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before Him for those who fear the LORD and who esteem His name. 17 “They will be Mine,” says the LORD of hosts, “on the day that I prepare My own possession, and I will spare them as a man spares his own son who serves him.” 18 So you will again distinguish between the righteous and the wicked, between one who serves God and one who does not serve Him.
The New Testament tells us in Romans 11:5, “Even so then, at this present time, there is a remnant according to the election of grace.”
Never throughout the long history of Israel and what we find recorded in The Bible did 100 percent of the nation worship God, there was always a faithful Remnant …
Remnant in The Bible is always a two-sided word. In the first instance it speaks of disaster and loss ahead.
But there is promise found in it too. It will not be a total catastrophe, for there will be a divinely preserved remnant.” Gods People are His Remnant!
The remnant is preserved by God himself God always has a Remnant that have not bowed the knee to Baal. Who are Circumcised at The Heart.
God’s remnant are those who stand on God’s word and not the word of man, politicians, the media and hirelings. They believe God’s Word is true today, yesterday and forever. Political correctness is not part of the character.
God still has a remnant today. Are you part of God’s Remnant?
