2016: The Year of Remnant Uprising

By Brent Simpson Jan 8, 2016

Are you a Remnant, dedicated to the work of the Cross?

I AM REMNANT

I AM REMNANT is not just a shirt we give away or a theme for 2016. It’s an identity. It’s a realization that it’s time for every true believer to arise and begin living incarnationally within their sphere of influence. It’s a statement of who you are, what you believe and what you will do for Christ.

I AM REMNANT. I am faithful. I am made holy through the blood of Jesus Christ. I am able, ready, and willing to be obedient to God at all times. I am called and empowered by the Holy Spirit to be a missionary to my world. I am a carrier of the Kingdom of God everywhere my foot steps and I speak as His ambassador everyplace I enter.

I AM REMNANT. I still believe in the power of the Old Rugged Cross. I still believe His Blood is precious and one drop (crumb/remnant) can wash away my sin. I still believe the Bible is the Word of God and has the power of life and death within its pages. I still believe the Holy Spirit endues with power, guides, directs and also confronts my sin. I still believe that Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Life, and the only way to a relationship with God the Father (John 14:6).

I AM REMNANT. I will go, give and sacrifice when called upon. I will crucify my own flesh upon the altar of God’s grace instead of crucifying my enemies on the altar of my own pride. I will walk humbly before God. I will pray with a sensitivity to the Holy Spirit that allows me to repent at the first sign of conviction. I will not just go to church, I will be the church. I will not compromise my convictions. I will stand between the living and the dead and stop the plague. I will live a life worthy of Christ’s death for me.

I AM REMNANT and I WILL ARISE in 2016. {eoa]
