Appointed Times (part nine) - The Feast of Trumpets

By -
September 30, 2019
There are at least seven titles for this special day in the Hebrew tradition.
  1.  Rosh Hashanah - (Head of the Year) Annual calendar (300 AD)
  2.  Birthday of the World - Creation of the First Adam (300 AD)
  3. The Day Of Blowing/Awakening Blast/Trumpets - (the First Resurrection of the dead in Christ to immortality) 
  4.  Coronation Day of the King - Jesus becomes King of the Kings
  5.  Wedding Day of the King - Jesus marries His 'Bride' (the New Jerusalem) 
  6.  Great & Terrible Day of the Lord - Days of Judgment begin for Israel and the nations
  7.  The Day of Remembrance - books of remembrance are opened 
 So one of the verses for this would naturally be Romans 5:12-17
Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all people, because all sinned... 
...For if, by the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive God’s abundant provision of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ!
There is way too much significance for this day to let it just slip by every year with no time to stop and think about it... the following note from Wikipedia is a summary of the important events that happened on this day in ancient history. And a slightly different set of titles used for this day.
1. the day of blowing 2. the day of remembrance 3. the Birthday of the world 4. Inauguration of the plan of redemption - After Adam sinned. 5. Day of Concealment  - "no man knows the day or the hour" it comes by observation. 6. sort of hints as the wedding day 7. beginning of ten days of judgment culminating on The Day of Atonement

THE NAMING OF THE FEAST

While the other appointed feasts are given a name, this feast has no real title. It is simply "Yom Teruah" – the Day of Blowing (Numbers 29:1). It is actually a festival centered on the blowing of the shofar as the distinguishing feature of the day, which calls us to attention in fear and reverence of God’s holiness and sovereignty in preparation and warning of His coming judgment, which is on Yom Kippur. As such it is a yearly "trumpet call", an awakening blast of the shofar which foreshadows the call to His elect to prepare themselves so that they will not come into judgment with the rest of the world when He comes to establish His kingdom upon this earth.
It is also called “Yom Ha Zikkaron” (the day of remembrance - Leviticus 23:24). It is a memorial of the day of creation when the morning stars sang together and shouted for joy at His handiwork in creation (Job 38: 7). In Genesis 1: 1, the word Bereishit, “in the beginning,” when changed around, reads Aleph b’ Tishri, or “on the first of Tishri.” Therefore it is also known as the birthday of the world, Yom HaDat Olam (Birth-Day of the World - E. Chumney).
It is also the memorial of the inauguration of the plan of redemption when, after Adam sinned, Yahweh God revealed to him the sacrificial lamb as an atonement. Therefore the rabbis understood that man would be judged also on this anniversary. Just as God forgave Adam, so He would forgive those who repent during the ten Days of Penitence before His final accounting and judgment of the world on Yom Kippur. (Tanchuma, Vayero 22:13)
It is also the memorial of God’s grace to Abraham when He substituted a ram to be sacrificed instead of Isaac (Genesis 22), which was a foreshadowing of the crucifixion of Yahweh's own beloved Son, offered as a sacrifice for our sins (John 3:16), who was the sacrificial Lamb in the plan of redemption revealed to Adam.
As there is an accounting made of each person's spiritual standing on this day as a preliminary determination of their eternal destiny and spiritual heritage, it is also called Yom HaDin (Day of Judgment).
It is also known as Yom HaKeseh (Day of Concealment) because it falls on the first day of the month and its advent awaits the appearance of the new moon, so the 'hour and the day' of its arrival is not known in advance. In this manner, it typifies the coming of the heavenly Bridegroom for His Bride who has spiritually prepared herself to be ready for the occasion, without spot or blemish. Matthew 24:36; 25: 1-13; Revelation 19: 6b-8
His Bride-in-waiting, it is a pre-advent yearly celebration of the anticipated marriage union. John 14: 1-3
The present tradition is to make this the beginning of the civil year, calling it Rosh Hashanah as it is a time of new beginnings, but the scriptural new year was set by Yahweh God to be at Nisan/Abib, the month for Passover.

  2, 22, 222, 2222 - Keys to the House of David This Facebook post from Johnny Enlow was sent to me by a friend two years ago and I ran across it again today.  So in good fun, I repost it here.  OK, so the 2's have it. So many of you have apparently been seeing a lot of 222 and 2222 as well and are wondering as to what the Lord might be saying there. Three scriptures that I get for this are: Eph. 2:22,  Rev. 22:2 and  Acts 2:22.  Eph. 2:22 is about us being built into a dwelling place for God.  Rev. 22:2 is about being trees of life that bring healing to the nations.  Acts 2:22 is about being a person of signs, wonders, and miracles.  All three go together and as you see the 222 you are being reminded that you are one that is to carry the power and presence of God everywhere you go.  Life of the supernatural is yours to step into as you host Him. Seeing 2222 at key times is about Isaiah. 22:22. This is the passage about ...

This post is about my reoccurring connection to the Minnesota Miracle and how God has kept the dream alive for a revival in Minnesota that He wants to bring to birth.  October 1971 - Minnesota Miracle Seventeen years old and on my way to a weekend retreat at Camp Courage. There I received the baptism of the Holy Spirit on Friday night with many other young people. The rest of that weekend was supernatural, none of us (over 100 high school and college students) showed up at the dining hall to eat, many of us did not sleep, we sought the Lord continuously for three days from Friday evening until Sunday at Noon . God was present in a tangible way as the Spirit hovered over our camp. We all left there changed by the power of the Holy Spirit.  The speaker that weekend was Dick Eastman he went onto North Central Bible college in downtown Mpls. Monday to lead their morning chapel service, that chapel service lasted for three days! Monday 8 AM - Wednesday 7 PM. The Bible sc...

A WRINKLE IN TIME... another JESUS PEOPLE movement?

First the Natural...  The Jesus People Church in Minneapolis begun in 1972, came out of the REVIVAL meetings held 7 days a week for several weeks at Souls Harbor, Downtown Minneapolis in the fall of 1971.  Coincidentally, the congregation at the renewed Jesus People Church now in Rogers, MN set aside Friday, May 2, 2014, for a Jesus People Church Reunion.  They invited all those who were part of the Jesus People Church in Minneapolis during the 70s and 80s; as part of that congregation in the past, my wife and I received a personal invitation to attend. But we did not go the gala event at a ritzy hotel in Minneapolis. Then the Spiritual!  The same weekend, I also received a personal invitation for Saturday, 5/3/14 to hear Cindy Jacobs at the House Church at 2024 Rahn Road in Eagan, MN. She prophesied that night "another Jesus People Movement" to come. As I sat in that "physical place where I had been one of the Jesus People church elders 25 years earl...
