April Showers Bring May Flowers

The past few weeks have been very busy and yet joyful for our family. We started off the month of Tishri with the Feast of Trumpets, then moved on to Yom Kippur and are now in the middle of Sukkot. The shofar has blasted many times in our little village, we joyfully fasted, and are now sleeping in our tents (inside of course). Wow! How great Adonai is to give us these wonderful feasts that all point to the Messiah.

Yes, Messiah has been here once, but these feasts also point to His return. There are many out there that view these feasts, along with the others, as unnessasary. If they were not meant to be followed for all times then HaShem would not have given them and told us to keep the feasts for all generations. We really do miss out on Adonai and His joy when we ignore Him.

Once we let go of our man made traditions and step out in true faith then we are able learn who HaShem truly is through the Bible. We will yearn with an overwhelming desire to learn more and more and we will be appalled at how we have disobeyed Him. The truth lies between Genesis 1 and Revelations 22, all we have to do is seek it. Throwing away our preconceived notions, praying earnestly for understanding and being open to hearing Him is the beginning to casting off the old man; dying to self and living to Messiah.

“If you are willing and obedient, you will eat the good of the land; but if you refuse and rebel, you will be eaten by the sword”; for the mouth of Adonai has spoken. Is. 1:19-20
