THE DELIVERANCE OF THE REMNANT

Proverbs 11:21
Though hand join in hand, the wicked shall not be unpunished:
But the seed of the righteous shall be delivered.

Fear not Child of El Shaddai. The wicked join forces; their lofty words come to your ears. You are backed to the sea and with mountain on each side, but see, oh, see the mighty hand of your God; He opens, yes He opens even the sea and protects your escape with His mighty lightning.

Is this a lone scenario? Are Moses and the Children of Israel the sole history witnesses of God’s mighty power? Of course not; the full six thousand years of past history witness to the lame boasts of evil against God. From Genesis to Revelations we read of the defeat of the devil and of his cohorts. The end is like the beginning; there is no reason to doubt it; when the armies of the world will surround Jerusalem, our mighty Lord will return to administer judgment on those who have abused, and seek to abuse again His people.

Our present history is sandwiched in between the references of God’s past protection and the promises of future vindication. Today, even today our world is in a polarization stage. The Words of Jesus through John the Beloved, Let the righteous be righteous still and let the wicked be wicked still, find their mate right in front or our eyes.

As history in our generation unfolds, we hear the drums of war in the distant Northeast. As always, God’s people who obey Him will be vindicated. What remains for our future is the assurance of the endtime promise Jesus gave again to John, And the dragon was wroth 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. And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years, And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.

Let us make sure to be part of this vindicated camp of the remnant of the women’s seed: the one who keeps God’s commandments and have the witness of Jesus-Christ.
