New Testament Remnant

Click here for todays updated version

Like David’s Elite Army, these are special forces who are sold out for Jesus. A group who walk in oneness, completely unified as they honor one another. Being fearless, faithful, and with singleness of mind, these ones have not compromised their position during hardships. A trained, disciplined, trustworthy group who are filled with the fire of the Holy Spirit, filled with the wisdom of God, who are testifiers of Jesus, as they powerfully demonstrate His ministry. These are Gods anointed ones who will go the distance with the Fathers business.

RICK'S NOTE: There are many amazing Spirit fill gatherings out there globally that are adding to the Book of Acts. We are in exciting times. This specific article is about the misalignment within the North American church culture and how it has heavily affected the Bride of Jesus.

1.) The Rising Remnant and its Leaders

In the last 25 years or more the Charismatic church has been fragmented and corrupted in so many ways where only those who have completely surrendered, those who are found completely trustworthy, those faithful ones who are true lovers of Jesus, will be the very ones walking in the greater expression of the Kingdom of Heaven here on earth during these latter days. Most of the present day Charismatic church is now out of step with what the Father is really doing. In some cities up to 90% are missing the mark when it comes to taking care of the Fathers business. Blinded because of a busyness to produce, being addicted to movement and programming, they are constantly building unto themselves, creating false realities, thinking they are the anointed ones of God.

But this rising Remnant is a group of young and old, male and female, covering every tongue and nation. They presently walk with a profound peace, being selfless, not seeking recognition, totally stripped from selfish ambition, and pride. It is these ones who love the truth, and the ways of God. Being faithful and obedient, walking in wisdom, as they abide daily. It will be these ones, walking in the Lords presence, that are being leveraged by the Holy Spirit, demonstrating the power and glory during these latter days.

This Remnant, absolutely focused, will be walking in a powerful anointing, having their oil lamps completely full. Refined in the wilderness through silent obedience, these ones carry purpose and power, as they release the Kingdom of Heaven here on earth, as exemplified in the Four Gospels and in the Book of Acts, — but even greater. Their voices will accomplish the Fathers desires.

The Fruits of the Spirit are firmly carved into their character. Saturated with light, they are a danger to darkness, creating a movement that is reactive to all those dominions and ruling principalities. Secured in the likeness of Jesus, they now carve their way through the spiritual resistance, walking in a favor that pushes back the controlling darkness.

Having gone through the maturing process, this Remnant fights with a faith, knowing exactly who they are. Being sober minded and watchful, this Remnant, being fearless, know their true identity, and the power behind that identity. Having their defaults recalibrated, they now press on with an authority that is dangerous, as the Holy Spirit gives them the ability to see with an awareness, and a discernment, as to who the real enemy is.

These very ones who’ve pursued the Lords presence, have been tested, and have endured the refining fire. They have been transformed and their wounds have turned into wisdom. Forged in the fires of discipline, they have been defined and developed, going from reactive to now being proactive.

The pressures of past battles have produced a faith and a purpose giving them a strength, and a confidence, that the Lord God is mighty. Integrity and transparency now play a big part of their character. Staying clean, committed, and close to the presence of God, they are now being entrusted with much. Cultivated in the wilderness, their presence now becomes a declaration of the Fathers intentions here on earth.

With the name of Jesus spoken through the flame of truth, — the enemy has no defense. Filled with fire, they tend to the Fathers business as it was always meant to be, as they restructure the battlefield to the Fathers advantage. Obtaining a wisdom filled with strategies, and a clarity to help discern what is truly going on, they now walk past all the distractive busyness, and the religious distortions.

Walking in the Spirit of Prophecy, having dreams and visions, they are Spiritually equipped with a vision that gives them the advantage as they disarm those demonic and the religious strongholds, cancelling assignments, as they change the landscape for that much needed shift. For them prayer has now become a divine weapon, parting the demonic and religious waters as they press deep into the Fathers business.

Having been the misunderstood ones, — they’ve refused to compromise, choosing authenticity over approval, refusing distractions and conformity, not willing to leverage any prophetic revelation for recognition, as they stayed in that hidden resting place with their convictions. For them, an alignment has taken place that now carries Holy weight. Backed by the angelic, they will establish new foundations, while restoring those that have been corrupted.

Having endured, they chose truth over trend, fire over fame. They refused to bow to culture or bend under pressure. They didn’t sell out to the visible, but stayed under the shelter of the almighty. Being forged by the fire of His presence, they’ve cultivated a last days anointing, holding the line while others have walked away. Instead of recognition they’ve pursued righteousness, doing what is right, avoiding the platforming, the self-promotion, and the need to self-preservate. Choosing obedience over opportunities, surrender over status, God now elevates them for these latter days.

Rooted in trust and perseverance, they have been promoted. Walking in uprightness instead of convenience, they become faithful and available unto the Lord to display His glory. The wages for doing the right thing, at the right place, at the right time, for all the right reasons, — now has them walking in peace, joy, honor, and glory. The maturing process within this Remnant has varied, but all have allowed true character to have its way, stewarding what has been developed.

God rewards alignment not popularity. Their surrendered spirit, with all its hidden faithfulness, is now being endorsed as it displays the Fathers glory. God is elevating this Remnant as He honors their trust in Him. Having trusted Gods timeline instead of theirs, refusing to entertain, refusing agendas, refusing position, having walked by faith and not by sight, God is now posturing them for the greater season to walk in the greater works. God is unleashing them for impact as He directs them to walk in greater authority bringing light and clarity to the chaos.

Their obedience unlocks heavens expression as they demonstrate the Fathers business with signs, wonders, healing, and deliverance. They’ve learned to carry weight without recognition, knowing that influence comes from purity, not popularity. And because of their perseverance to stay above board, having walked away from the compromise and the double life, — heaven has now responded.

Their private obedience and trustworthiness have set them apart for territorial clearance. What has been established in private is now going public. True character has been defined, true character will now manifest a powerful Kingdom on behalf of the Father. Their voices will shake demonic structures and rattle those religious strongholds as they are totally backed with Kingdom power.

These ones have allowed the incubation and the surrender process to have its way. Aligned, positioned, and postured, they’ve calibrated themselves to abide in His presence, and with revelation and readiness, they have become spiritually dangerous as they give continuance to the Fathers restoration plan, through the Ministry of Jesus, as directed by the Holy Spirit. In the tribulatory times that we are presently walking in, — they have been activated to part the demonic and religious waters to clear the way for the lost and hurting, to see that the Bride of Jesus walks in her fullness.

2.) The False Remnant and its Leaders

This misaligned group has absolutely convinced themselves that they are the sent ones as they muddy the waters within the true remnant. These are the ones that know the name of Jesus, know of His presence, but refuse to draw near causing them to continually fall short on their commission, their destiny, — never walking in the fullness of their true identity. Without humility, they have been minimize. Misaligned because of surrender issues, and being entrenched in their ways, they are manifesting minimal fruit as they walk the double life. Blurring the lines, they now find themselves, in many ways, at the wrong place, at the wrong time, with the wrong message.

Being prophetically misaligned, they've miss out on the spiritual realities that are presently standing before them. They have postured themselves outside of the present, outside of what it is that the Father is presently doing. Being double minded, and out of position, listening to other voices, including their own, — the deceptive prophetic voice now has them building upon religious platforms, creating religious ministries, channeled by a counterfeit light, distorting the power behind the apostolic, the prophetic, and the pastoral.

Dimming the light, while strong-arming the Holy Spirit, — the adversary now steers this misrepresentation of a remnant into a counterfeit pioneering movement. All this usurping made possible because self-positioning, self-preservation, and self-reliance is still embedded in their misaligned character. Leaders not willing to let go, seeking position, lacking transparency, having a closet full of secrets, only generates a misdirect through the mismanagement, as they convince themselves and others, that they are the anointed ones for these latter days.

Without humility they became spiritually blind and deaf as they now walk in their own authority. In this group there is always a missing element to the equation, something that hinders them from going the distance. In the true Remnant there is that hidden obedience, a hidden faithfulness, that position of surrender that comes with a character that God can promote. In the false remnant there are those well hidden sins that comes with a character that self preservates and self promotes.

This false remnant is now a counterfeit of the truth, life, and way, orchestrated by those who are out of step when it comes to Gods presence and what it is that God is presently doing in their midst. Totally blind, they have become the biggest threat to the true remnant. Being misguided, the emphasis is now based on what they can build, and what they can promote, as the Spirit of God, and the angelic, are no longer part of the promotions. Career driven, Instead of letting it happen in the supernatural, — they are now making it happen in the natural.

What they have projected is a mirror image, a deceptive counterfeit that comes with a false anointing, fueled by false intel, through the false prophetic creating a huge misdirect. It’s this administration that convinces everyone that they are walking in a oneness, as long as they get to call the shots, as long as they get to be that voice. From this place, the false remnant is established, illuminating ministries with a leadership that is fueled by a counterfeit light. Not willing to surrender all as they now walk in the compromise, and without knowing, they have been weaponized for spiritual destruction.

They’ve descaled Ekklesia and the Five-Fold Ministry back to a model that pushes their agenda forward. It’s at this place where Evangelists are calling themselves Apostles, where those flowing in the Spirit of Prophecy are calling themselves Prophets, where Pastors assume the Apostolic and Prophet offices, — and the list goes on. Argue with them, you’re now arguing with God because to them, God has anointed their voice. It's an environment where the self-exalted ones are only accountable to themselves because they have it all figured out. Walking in a false authority, they now usurp the atmosphere with its scripted realities, restricting the Kingdom of Heaven.

It’s a total distortion of what Jesus modeled and released in the Four Gospels, and what the Apostles released in the Book of Acts. All this counterfeit charismatic busyness contaminates the presence of God and the manifestations of the Holy Spirit. This is a cleverly disguised counterfeit replica of the Fathers business designed to distract, distort, and misdirect an end time movement where it totally derails and usurps the Fathers good intentions. It's this false remnant that will be the biggest possers and opposers to the true Remnant as they divide the room with two opinions.

3.) The Religious Church and its Leaders

This group is filled with organized activities where trading with the world has captivated them in so many ways when it comes to media, entertainment, and platforming, which for many includes the integration of A.I. In this group, true identity has been heavily altered. Having fallen to such great depths, and sidelining themselves so badly, makes it impossible for many to free themselves from all the religious entanglements.

Entrenched in its religious structures, programs, and rituals, there is now a massive stronghold upon this administration and its people. This church, organized like a business, with its busyness and staged performances, along with its entertainment, hero worship, and eloquent messages, is so far removed from where they truly need to be as Holy Spirit has been replaced with a counterfeit holy spirit releasing a whole new way of moving forward, — filled with false intel and programming.

Obviously the adversary has prevailed, as he’s descaled the Book of Acts Church, distorting people’s identities, callings, and destinies. Mixing the wisdom of the world, with the Wisdom of God, created a huge misalignment, mismanagement, and misinterpretation, allowing counterfeit spirits to step in on every level causing a shift in the light, both personally and corporately.

Perfectly cloaked, this matrix, with its constructs, — is where all the programming is loaded up to build ministries. It's here that you'll find the narcissistic spirit, the jezebel spirit, and the leviathan spirit all hard at work. These gatekeepers and influencers keep everything moving forward, creating compromises, leaving people with all kinds of options and opinions. Charismatic witchcraft is huge in this place as it divides, displaces, and misdirects everything from the top down. With its altered voice, what's being shared all sounds great, but it has very little to do with what Heavenly Father is presently doing.

The original government that rested on Jesus’ shoulders has been restructured. It’s this very environment that has created the great exodus. The original concept of church as released in the Four Gospels and in the Book of Acts was never designed to have a board that consisted of a president, vice president, secretary, and treasurer running the church. Where churches become a marketing place, where the anointing gets traded for fame on the internet, where the altar becomes a stage, where service becomes a show, and where heaven becomes a career prize all because of immature, inexperienced, and insecure leaders grabbing positions of control.

But the Early Church as mentioned in Ephesians, consisted of a board having apostles, prophet, pastors, evangelist and teachers; where in oneness, they were all unified in the Holy Spirit creating a movement where everyone, and everything, moved forward in unison, where the commanded blessing had no choice but to show up because serving and honoring one another became a high priority. It was an environment where whoever wanted to be the greatest, became the greatest servant on all.

4.) The Great Exodus

This is a massive group that has walked away from all that is organized. They are done with disorganization of organized religion, — but many still embrace the name of Jesus. The big reason for the exodus was both on a personal and corporate level. What they realized, after bouncing around inside the box, is that they never got to where they wanted to be. The structure created a revolving door. They came in damaged and they left damaged, they came in wounded and left wounded, they came in with baggage and left with more baggage.

Effected by the demonic, and now by the religious, — transitioning from their old identity into that new born again identity had its challenges. Without proper leadership, proper teaching, proper training, and proper ministry, makes it tough to breakaway from all the strongholds and controlling influences. And with sin abounding, scattered from top to bottom, because of righteousness and holiness issues, — well that makes things even tougher.

A compromised church with its corporate style of leadership has a way of creating a disconnect, where a divisiveness and a competitiveness always seems to creep in on every level. Bowing to the global narratives with its misinformation, disinformation, and speculation, also played a big part in developing an environment that lacked unity and destiny. With the whole world going in the wrong direction, good teaching is vital. With the redacted sermons, followed with minimal ministry towards healing and deliverance, only created a vacuum where the much-needed freedom never came into play.

Instead of the light growing brighter, it just got dimmer. Instead of them being spiritually filled, they ended up spiritually drained, as the ministry of the Holy Spirit was minimized. And because of that, the adversary was able to prevail as the ongoing warfare resulted in very few victories. A counterfeit spirit replaced Holy Spirit, creating a vacuum in conviction, in holiness, and in righteousness, causing sin to abound on every level. Freedom never came, just more separation, more isolation, and more baggage, — thus the great exodus.

5.) The Last Days Extraction

The whole reasoning for the global remnant, representing every tongue and nation, is because of the Fathers great desire to extract His Sons Bride from the global deception of all that is false. To expose the counterfeit and render those ruling principalities that has deceived and handcuffed the innocent, the weak, the hurting, and the vulnerable, in so many ways.

Heavenly Father loves the Church / Ekklesia where He was willing to give His only begotten Son, — the future Bridegroom. And the Fathers assignments towards the Bride are far from being complete. His plan is to have her breakaway from all the assaults, to get her back into the ways of holiness, to wash clean those defiling garments and get her back on the path of righteousness where she gets to do all the right things, at the right place, at the right timing, for all the right reasons, — to have her walk in her fullness once again.

This remnant has been tested, trained, and prepared to dismantle all that is in the way of the Father's business, — to get those assignments completed and to see that everyone who’s invited to the wedding, — actually makes to the wedding. To part the religious and demonic waters giving the Bride all the room she needs to prepare herself for the upcoming wedding. To join with all those who have already prepared themselves. Great is the faithfulness of the Father as He plans to do His part, — but the Bride now needs to play her part.

The angels have been dispatched, conviction is hitting the hearts and minds of people, and judgments are landing at the doorsteps. The global extraction has now been activated. But huge are the numbers of those who have stubbornly entrenched themselves in their ways, — which will only minimizes the extraction. Massive is the great deception in these latter days and great are the numbers of those who have been totally deceived. But because of the Fathers great love, — a remnant is being released for we have now entered into the end time harvest.

So the question is, — Where do you stand in all of this? Because the season that we are in, — you need to be all in.
