God is Generous!
We have received great blessings from God – a good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over. From the overflow we too are to be generous!
Led by the Spirit
The Divine Presence in the Tabernacle was of critical importance! To go up and take hold of the Land, the nation had to be led by the Spirit. And the people had to live a life where God was at the center of everything.
The Year of Release
The Shemitah and Jubilee year are about giving people another chance, a reset! A time of mercy, of having burdens lifted, and being set free.
Sanctifying the New Moon
Proclaiming the Appointed Times at the time appointed for them is not as easy as it sounds! It’s a complex process and has been the subject of much debate.
A Tale of Two Goats
We often hear about how the Scapegoat points to the work of Messiah, but miss the more glorious imagery of the goat offered as a sin offering and how it points to the work of Messiah in the Heavenly Temple!
Spiritual Cleansing
Cleansing one of spiritual contamination from evil speech involves more than just removal of the bad habit. One must also form good habits and speak words of life.
Preparing Our Holy Sanctuary
In Mark 7, Yeshua says what proceeds out of a man is what defiles him. Contrary to popular belief, Yeshua says nothing about what one eats, but only about what remains inside a person, which are matters of the heart.
The Journey from Passover to Shavuot
On the journey from Passover to Shavuot, we count the 50 days of the omer. In this time we reflect on our spiritual growth preparing ourselves so we will be found faithful at the return of Yeshua our Messiah!
The First Fruit of the Resurrection
Yeshua our Messiah is the first fruit offering presented in the heavenly Temple as the first fruit of the resurrection, providing the way for the coming harvest of souls at the end of this age!
Our Thanksgiving Offering
In this time of Passover, may we be witnesses to many others of the great redemption available to all who will come and behold Yeshua, our Passover Lamb!
