THE FEAST OF TRUMPETS - 5780 
The Feast of Trumpets is a celebration of several things that are inter-connected it is probably the most comprehensive Feast.
  1. Adam and Eve were created on this day (the sixth day of creation) they received the breath of God in their nostrils and became living souls. 
  2. The Awakening Blast -The first resurrection of the dead to Immortality (the promise that was promised in the Feast of First Fruits (at Christ's bodily resurrection)  has now been fulfilled in the first of the fall feasts in his 'body' being resurrected to newness of life. 
  3. Coronation day of the King - the day Jesus will be crowned as King over the whole earth (he qualifies because he was a sinless son of Adam (born of a woman, born under the law)) tempted in every way as we have been yet sinless.
  4. Wedding day of the King (of Kings) Jesus seizes his bride and takes her to the wedding banquet at his Father's house and the marriage is consummated during the 7-day wedding Feast 
“But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only. But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. Matthew 24:36-37 
“Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.    Matthew 25:1-13
This scripture is directly related to the Feast of Trumpets! The Scripture passage above says, you can recognize the days (as in the days of Noah) but not the day or the hour. In fact, the Hebrews had a phrase concerning the Feast of Trumpets, it was this... "no man knows the day or the hour" and Jesus used this phrase twice in Matthew chapters 24 and 25 (above) to indicate that He will fulfill the Festival of Trumpets when he returns for the saints in the First Resurrection. The saying comes from the practice of the priests used to determine the New moon. 

 Out of all the seven feasts, only the Feast of Trumpets begins on a New Moon which can occur on one of two days and it could even happen at a different hour of the day from year to year depending on the orientation of the moon to the earth, etc. Therefore, "of that day and hour, no one knows. 

 So this feast out of all the feasts must be 'observed' it can only be determined by those who are watching and waiting (in the dark). The priests were required to stay up and watch for the sign appearing in the heavens - looking toward the Western sky and waiting for the new moon to appear. Likewise, we are told to watch and wait for our returning King on the Feast of Trumpets, his appearing will be in the Eastern sky. 

 Matthew 24 - The parable of the ten virgins also speaks of this feast leading up to the Day of Atonement. We must be ready and have our wicks trimmed and our lamps full of oil in case he delays his coming. Watching and waiting, listening for the Trumpet sound that would indicate his immediate arrival to snatch away his bride who is made ready.

The Parable of the Wise and Foolish Virgins - Matthew 25

“Then the kingdom of heaven shall be likened to ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. Now five of them were wise, and five were foolish. Those who were foolish took their lamps and took no oil with them, but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. But while the bridegroom was delayed, they all slumbered and slept.
“And at midnight a cry was heard: ‘Behold, the bridegroom is coming; go out to meet him!’ Then all those virgins arose (Trumpets) and trimmed their lamps. And the foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’ But the wise answered, saying, ‘No, lest there should not be enough for us and you; but go rather to those who sell, and buy for yourselves.’ And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding; (Trumpets) and the door was shut. (Day of Atonement) 
“Afterward (after the Day of Atonement) the other virgins came also, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open to us!’ But he answered and said, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, I do not know you.’
“Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.    Matthew 25:1-13

  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...
