Yet gleaning grapes
shall be left in it, as the shaking of an olive tree, two or three berries in the top of the uppermost
bough, four or five in the outmost
fruitful branches thereof, saith the LORD God of Israel.
Isaiah 24:13
When thus it shall
be in the midst of the land among the people, there
shall be as the shaking of an olive tree, and as the gleaning grapes when the vintage is done.
The day will come, and seems to be approaching sooner rather than
later, that Damascus will be a ruinous heap. Yet the LORD has promised to
gather up the select remnant in Syria and all the nations: the chosen and
faithful gleaning grapes among the called. Persecuted believers around the
world: Take heart! He is ever faithful to hold onto those who are His, and none
will be plucked from His hand. The vintage is nearly done. The winepress is
nearly filled with the grapes of wrath in preparation for the Treader. This
ministry is fulfilling the calling to walk, watch, and warn. As it is written,
Luke 21:36
Watch ye
therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these
things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
