God’s Calendar: The True Meaning of Rosh HaShana

by

BLOG: God’s Calendar: The True Meaning of Rosh HaShana Amir’s commentary on the Feast of Trumpets known to the Jews as Rosh Hashana.   ******************* Rosh Hashana means “The head of the year” – namely the beginning of the year. It’s the Jewish New Year. Yet Biblically the feast that we are told to be celebrating has absolutely nothing to do with the beginning of the year as it was the first day of the seventh month. “…Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, “Speak to the children of Israel, saying: ‘In the seventh month, on the first day of …

Are You Going on With Jesus?

by

You are those who have continued with Me in My trials. —Luke 22:28 It is true that Jesus Christ is with us through our temptations, but are we going on with Him through His temptations? Many of us turn back from going on with Jesus from the very moment we have an experience of what He can do. Watch when God changes your circumstances to see whether you are going on with Jesus, or siding with the world, the flesh, and the devil. We wear His name, but are we going on with Him? “From that time many of His …

The Believer’s Valley Experiences

Psalm 23 23 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. 3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. 4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. 5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. …

The World That Was 

by

Prophecy – Signs Monday, September 18, 2017 Pete Garcia In early 1914, though, it seemed almost impossible that Britain and France would go to war with Germany to defend Russia against Austria-Hungary over a dispute with Serbia. Yet by June 28, war moved straight from impossible to inevitable — without ever passing through improbable. Four years later, 10 million people had died. (From World War One: First war was impossible, then inevitable; Anatole Kaletsky) Although I’ve used this quote in the past, I’ve found myself drawn to it again due to its precise accuracy describing the seemingly incredible and often …

“And they follow me.”—John 10:27.

by

“And they follow me.”—John 10:27. WE should follow our Lord as unhesitatingly as sheep follow their shepherd, for He has a right to lead us wherever He pleases. We are not our own, we are bought with a price—let us recognize the rights of the redeeming blood. The soldier follows his captain, the servant obeys his master, much more must we follow our Redeemer, to whom we are a purchased possession. We are not true to our profession of being Christians, if we question the bidding of our Leader and Commander. Submission is our duty, cavilling is our folly. Often …

Look at the Birds

by

Matthew 6:26 (KJV) 26 Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they? During the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus gave some illustrations as to why we should not worry, and one of the examples He chose to use was that of birds. Speaking outdoors near the Sea of Galilee, maybe Jesus even gestured toward a few birds flying by:”Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet …

101 Zadok in the Messianic Kingdom

by

What is important in the Law of the Lord is faithfulness to His Word, not lineage or position. He rewards faithfulness. God always has faithful servants who adhere to His truth and commandments. The sons of Zadok are being rewarded for their service to Him as well as their fidelity to His commandments. In spite of the group think pressure to conform to the world’s ways that are contrary to God’s Laws the Zadokites continued to follow God. The other priests left God’s Laws and prostituted themselves with the idolatrous desires of the others who left the confines of God’s …

The Blindness of the Heart (Ephesians 4:18)

by

“The god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not” (2 Cor. 4:4). “There is in the unregenerate mind an incompetence, an incapacity, an inability to understand the things of the Spirit; and Christ’s repeated miracle in restoring sight to the naturally blind was designed to teach us our imperative need of the same divine power recovering spiritual vision to our souls…. The mind’s eye of the sinner is capable of perceiving natural things, but he has no ability to see spiritual things. Holy Writ states that the one who “lacks these things,” namely, the graces of …
