Clare du Bois: Some of you have been left behind, because you haven't pressed into the Lord and given Him your life. You haven't believed. You haven't lived for Him.
But others of you have been called and chosen. And though it is fraught with many, many dangers, trials and tribulations - for those of you who are new Christians, or recommitted to the Lord, it will be the most exciting time of your life. And the most challenging. This is but the beginning for you. And for those of you who are called as the Remnant, this will be what you've been waiting for your entire life - to live totally on fire for Jesus. You are the Remnant Church, which is spoken of in the Scriptures:
And the dragon was furious with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the Commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. Revelation 12:17
You have been chosen to lead, to guide and to fight against evil. You are not among the left behind because you did not give yourselves to Him. No. You are among the called and chosen Remnant.
Some of you are warriors and have been created for such a time as this. For those of you who have been called to engage in the battle to restore our nation, the Lord wants you to know He is with you. You are not fighting alone. His arm is mighty and powerful, not only to make you invisible but to confuse and defeat the enemy. Begin all your battles with prayer and end them with thanksgiving. Through you He is going to raise this nation from the ashes and restore her to righteousness.
Don't let anyone belittle you. You were not negligent, you were chosen by Him to be warriors for righteousness and even to give witness to Jesus through martyrdom. Be courageous. Let no one demean you. Don't believe the enemy's lies, for he surely will torment you with lies to try and discourage you. Stand tall in the Lord; He is with you.
One other short point I need to make is that the Baptism of the Holy Spirit, with the evidence of speaking in tongues, is THE weapon of choice for prayer. When you pray in the Spirit, you speak the language of the Spirit of God and the very exact prayer that is needed in the situations you find yourself in. Do not allow the enemy to lie about this gift anymore; it is powerful and that's why he hates it and slanders it. Holy Spirit is praying the perfect prayer through you.
If you have not yet received the Baptism of the Holy Spirit, all you need to do is ask. A good way to begin is to sing and allow Him to take over your speech while you are in worship. Many, many gifts come with this grace: discerning of spirits, healing, miracles, words of knowledge, prophecy - so many wonderful gifts accompany this sign. I would ask you not to disdain it, and not to allow anyone to prevent you from using your heavenly language.
God bless all of you. Dwell in His heart. Dwell in His heart, you that have stayed behind and you that have been left behind. Make your home in His heart. He is with you and Mighty to save! You will be part of the greatest revival the Earth has ever known, greater things than Jesus did you will also do, miracle after miracle.
Remember to confess, "Jesus, I know you are here with me. Jesus, I trust in You."
No matter what you encounter remember these words of St. Paul who was martyred:
Who will separate us from the love of Christ? Will tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? Just as it is written, "FOR YOUR SAKE WE ARE BEING PUT TO DEATH ALL DAY LONG; WE WERE CONSIDERED AS SHEEP TO BE SLAUGHTERED."
But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer through Him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord who dwells in us.
Romans 8:35-39
Persevere. This is but a short while - 7 years. And at the end of that time, we'll all be gathered together in Heaven rejoicing over what the Lord has done with our lives and what He's done in the world. Remember - He loves you. Dwell in His heart as He dwells in yours.
The Blessing of Almighty God, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit be with you now and forever. Amen.
