The Start of the Past 30 Years – the Age of Babylon
Daniel 1:8 │ But Daniel resolved that he would not defile himself with the king's food, or with the wine that he drank. Therefore, he asked the chief of the eunuchs to allow him not to defile himself.

Remnants must discover in advance everything that is inside the covenant. In doing so and by looking at today, they can confirm many answers and discover what they must do for the rest of their lives. Those who went on this journey were the Remnants of the Bible. What kind of start did they have?
1. Remnants Who Resolved
Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego had already known the reasons why the Israelites faced disasters. Although they were taken as captives, they knew in advance that it was the age of Remnants. For that reason, they firmly resolved; boldly stood before idols; and were victorious. In this manner, if Remnants resolve inside of the covenant, everything that they face will become opportunities.
2. Evidences Given by God
Many incidents can arise on the journey for Remnants who have resolved. But no matter what happens, they mustn’t be deceived. Daniel was in the midst of a grave situation and faced imminent death. However, instead of panicking, he began prayer that would move the age. Afterward, God raised Cyrus as king; enabled the Israelites to return to Israel; and led the reconstruction of the temple just as He had planned.
Just like the Remnants of the age of Babylon, today’s Remnants must resolve to foresee visible situations inside of the Gospel and use them as the starting point. By doing so, they’ll become the main figures who carry out the errands regarding the works that God will do.
[Covenantal Prayer] Dear God, help me to hold onto Your covenant and make the correct resolution. Please raise me as a Remnant who is used as the main figure regarding Your works. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
