Yom Teruah | The Prophetic Fall Moedim Begin! | Taking a Deeper Look at Torah and Grace

The Prophetic Fall Holy Days Begin!

Adonai’s Moedim (“Appointed Times,”) found in Leviticus 23 paint a profound prophetic picture and set the cyclical rhythm revealing the glorious Redemption Story. 
In the Spring moedim we find amazing prophetic fulfillment with the coming of Yeshua, Messiah, our Passover, the Lamb of God! 
Yeshua is also the First Fruits of Resurrection, our  forerunner in the Great Resurrection promised to all who hope in Him.
 In Shavu'ot, we find the birth of the ekklesia (“church” or “congregation”) in Jerusalem—a parallel to
the birth of the ekklesia at the foot of Mount Sinai—an event also attended by fire!
The Fall Moedim hold the expectation of Yeshua's return and the final ingathering, the restoration of all things!

Yom Truah יום תרוה —Day of Blowing Trumpets / Rosh Hashanah—Head of the Year (traditional)
1 Tishrei 5781 | Friday, September 18 at twilight—Sunday, September 20 at twilight
(The civil Hebrew calendar changes from 5780 to 5781)
This is a High Sabbath, falling on the weekly Sabbath.  (Leviticus 23:23-25)
"In the seventh month on the first of the month you shall have a Sabbath, a reminder with loud blasts of trumpets, a holy convocation." Lev. 23:24

The blast from the shofar is a call to wake up from your slumbers and prepare! It may be your King is soon to arrive ... it may be war. 
It may be time for the judgment of the world!
We are surely in trying times, yet most of us sleep.
Many are "at ease in Zion," self-concerned, self-absorbed, building our own kingdoms.
Yet a heavenly shofar blasts: "Remember!"
Remember what?
Watch! Pray! Live with expectation of His imminent return!
Are you ready? 
Do YOU hear the sound of the shofar?

The Prophet says:
Seek the LORD while He may be found;
Call upon Him while He is near.
Let the wicked forsake his way
And the unrighteous man his thoughts;
And let him return to the LORD,
And He will have compassion on him,
And to our God,
For He will abundantly pardon.
Isaiah 55:6,7
As we enter the Yamim Noraim, ימים נוראים
the 10 Days of Awe from the Feast of Trumpets 
(traditionally known as Rosh Hashanah) 
to Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, 
may we seek the LORD 
and turn from any ways 
that trample underfoot His glorious Name 
or the testimony of His holiness. 
Let us rejoice in His gracious forgiveness!  

Who is a God like You, 
who pardons iniquity
And passes over the rebellious act 
of the remnant of His possession?
He does not retain His anger forever,
Because He delights in unchanging love.
He will again have compassion on us;
He will tread our iniquities under foot.
Yes, You will cast all their sins
Into the depths of the sea.
You will give truth to Jacob
And unchanging love to Abraham,
Which You swore to our forefathers
From the days of old.
Micah 7:18-20

The Lord bless you!

If you are a follower of Yeshua, Jesus, you likely love the Word of God. Yet there is a nagging tension with regards to the "whole" Word, meaning THE LAW. We fight not to have the Ten Commandments plaques removed from public places, yet we are uncomfortable with the fourth—the Sabbath. Do we have the authority to redesign them to the Nine Commandments? That doesn't feel right either, does it? We celebrate holidays that are not in the Bible, that we know began with pagan religions—we have adapted them to Christianity, and we feel God is alright with that—even Halloween, which was and still is a dark, satanic observance. Yet, we are absolutely certain God rejects outright BIBLICAL observances as listed in the Old Testament and freely call people who do heretics and legalists. Hmm..

Maybe it's time to take another look at this traditional tension. Maybe God will shine new light for us through His Word, His Spirit and His overwhelming Love...
