Romans 11:3 Lord, they have killed thy prophets, and digged down thine altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life.
11:4 But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal.
11:5 Even so then at this present time also THERE IS A REMNANT ACCORDING TO THE ELECTION OF GRACE.
Elijah the prophet saw the level of unrighteousness in the land and started crying; Lord, please take my life because I'm the only righteous man left but God made him understand that there were 7,000 more people who were not defiled.
No matter the level of decadence of the world today, there are still remnants, there are righteous men who burn with undeniable and unquenchable hunger and passion for God.
You will hear people say words like "everyone is a sinner", I don't blame such for saying it, it is because they have not discovered the power of God's grace that is able to make you walk in true biblical holiness not cutting corner kind of holiness.
No matter how worst the world gets, God still has a remnant. Therefore, do not be deceived by the words of men, no matter how countless the number of people walking in impurity are, there are still those who are walking in absolute purity and sanctity.
We are in a generation where you can't easily differentiate a believer from an unbeliever through their outlook but in the midst of these are sets of people who have vowed not to be corrupted by the fashion of this corrupted generation.
There are women living in nations where there is a record of very low temperature and the level of cold is high and yet these do not put on tight trousers jumping about on the streets. In those nations, it is very normal and very spiritual for a woman to put on trousers. But yet, some of them have made up their mind not to wear such and these are Pentecostal women. Because some people think, it is only in Orthodox churches where you can find people who do not wear certain things saying they have been indoctrinated.
These are not Orthodox as people supposed but sound Pentecostal tongue talking believers.
But I wonder how a woman will be going on tight body exposing trousers and mini skirts in African countries like nigeria where the temperature is high all in the name of fashion.
Some men are just walking up and down on the streets like prisoners and many claim to be born again and even serving in units in churches. What! Are we playing God or religion or the devil? I guess its the devil and religion because no mortal man can play God.
Multitude will be shocked at the last days how they will be disqualified for entering heaven just because of little things. You know those things you call little; malice, unforgiveness, hatred, inordinate affection, pride, lies, immoral lifestyles, etc
*COUNSEL: Ask God what to do including how to live and what to wear. Don't follow the crowd, follow the Christ. (Judah Olatunde)*
*Prayer: Father, help me to give up whatever you want me to give up for the excellency of your glory and for the sake of the security of my eternity with you after my journey here on earth in Jesus name. Keep walking by faith*
