A Wake‑Up Call That Awakens Strategy

Crowing Rooster is a Rare Fowl Being from the Gospel Age, costing 2 faith with 1 strength and 1 hope. Its dual‐purpose toolkit, Pray +1 Event damage and Resurrect: Draw a verse upon exile, makes it a multi‑faceted asset. It supports aggressive builds with enhanced damage potential, fuels combo chains through resurrection draws, and strengthens Fowl tribal decks that thrive on wide board states.

The Sound Before the Morning

The crowing of a rooster has a way of cutting through the night. It is the sound of transition, the breaking of one season into the next. On the night of Jesus’ trial, it marked a turning point in the heart of Peter. Hours before, Peter stood bold in his promise to stand with the Lord unto death. Yet before the dawn, the rooster’s voice pierced the air, sealing the prophecy Jesus had spoken. That sound carried the weight of truth, but also the seed of restoration.

In the Old Testament, the morning watch was a time of expectation. The priests would prepare the offerings, the people would gather in hope, and light would begin to spill over the horizon. The crowing of the rooster was not merely a sign of failure, it was also the signal of a new day. Even in Peter’s denial, the morning was coming, and with it the mercy of the risen Christ. Grace was already moving toward him.

This card's verse is Matthew 26:34:

"Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this night, before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice."

The sound of the rooster reminds us that God’s Word is certain. Every promise He speaks will be fulfilled exactly as He said. For Peter, that truth brought tears. The rooster’s cry may have echoed Peter’s weakness, but it also marked the beginning of his restoration.

The Call to Rise

When Jesus rose from the dead, He made sure Peter knew he was forgiven. Three denials met with three affirmations of love. The rooster’s crow was no longer a mark of shame, it became a reminder of the faithfulness of Jesus to complete the work He began. The same Lord who had foretold Peter’s failure had also prayed that his faith would not fail. And it did not.

Every believer has heard a kind of rooster crow, a moment when God’s Word pierces your heart, revealing truth so clear that it demands a response. In those moments, we remember that He is the author and finisher of our faith. He knows the end from the beginning, and He writes redemption into every chapter.

Believer, the morning has come. The same voice that called Peter back is the voice that calls you His own. The Gospel of grace proclaims that Christ died for our sins, was buried, and rose again on the third day. You are forgiven. If you believed in this to save you, then you are clean, you are restored, and when the morning comes and the rooster crows, it will only remind you that the mercies of God are new every morning and that His grace is the first sound of every day you live in Him.
