Did you know that 97% of communication is non-verbal. How we live our lives and facial expressions say more to others than our words. Our real self leaks out through our body language and micro-expressions on our faces. We cannot completely hide the real us.
Sometimes people are uncomfortable with us because the Holy Spirit in us is being revealed in our bodies.
Sometimes believers who have never met feel a connection to us because the same Holy Spirit in us also dwells in them.
There have been times when the Holy Spirit revealed to me something was not right with someone through their body language or way of expressing themselves. I wouldn't know exactly what it was but later could reflect on some ways the person expressed themselves. Then something would happen and I saw what the problem was. I never judged until I had the answer clearly from God.
When I have met an authentic believer I saw the genuineness, and all the fruit of the Spirit knowing this person was my Spiritual sibling.
Galatians 5:22-23
"22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law."
I have met many Christians in my life, most of them lacked this wonderful fruit of the Spirit, while the genuine few were dripping with the love of God and full of all His fruit. This is the remnant God speaks of in these end times.
The remnant is those who are sensitive to their actions, they love God so much that the slightest sin of bad attitude or selfishness convicts them deeply and they confess it to be cleansed. They are continually growing in holiness and love correction, instruction, and righteousness.
The remnant are those who are left over, the few, the scraps that remain when they have been tested by God.
Romans 11:5 "…4 And what was the divine reply to him? “I have reserved for Myself seven thousand men who have not bowed the knee to Baal.” 5 In the same way, at the present time there is a remnant chosen by grace. 6 And if it is by grace, then it is no longer by works. Otherwise, grace would no longer be grace.…"
All those who have chosen Christ because they believed in Him are the remnant, the small number that are authentic believers and will never give up their trust in Christ.
