Nwsltr-09-12-10-Fall, The Harvest of Blessing

“The greatest blessing is the redemption of all men through the atonement provided for us in the coming of the Son of God, Yeshua and his works, death, burial, resurrection, and ascension to the Father. Then finally his coming again to this earth to bring full redemption and glory to those who are his own.”

The summer has faded into fall, of sorts. As I write this the weather warning for our neck of the woods was for a frost that could kill gardens etc. So the one who is observant to these kind of warnings and who has a garden, will thus cover up their produce for the night to ensure a longer growing season.  Even now the temperature is having a hard time reaching 65 degree’s. The sun now has a short time span. We can clearly see the sun moving farther south as its rays tend not to shine through certain windows as it did just a month ago. The daylight is shortening up, the seasons are changing, and now is fall hunting. Fall fishing is also in the works just as those who love the snow are preparing their skis and other equipment for that time of the year.

The long and short of it is this, winter is much to long and summer much too short. That is, in these parts, anyway! But then, the weather doesn’t get as hot here as in other places. This year it reached triple digits for a very short time. Nothing like down south. The economy here for the most part  is growing, howbeit some aspects are definately slowing up! Even so, many new out of staters are seen arriving as they come for jobs!

As we enter September we find ourselves in the fall feasts. This month is Rosh Hashanah, and is connected to the ‘New Year’,  ‘seeking of the LORD’ and to the ‘Torah’. This starts ten days of ‘awe’ where many Jews prepare themselves for the day of repentance and fasting known as Yom Kippur. Rosh Hashanah is a time of celebration and of seeking the Lord for his blessing and guidance for the coming year. It is a time of reflection back at the previous year, thanking God for his provision. It is a time of enjoying a traditional feast along with ‘apples and honey’, which both represent the goodness, and sweetness of knowing our Savior Jesus Christ and his Father.

Thus Rosh Hashanah leads to the most holy day of the year for observant Jews who fast 26 hours during this time of Yom Kippur seeking God  to put their names in the ‘Book of life’. They still have no atonement for their sins through Yeshua Ha Massiach, but they seek God none the less.  We thank God for the work of the Cross, the blood of Christ, and the Love of God which has made our redemption possible. It is at this time, we seek the Lord for we have found that these feasts actually enhance and bring to the forefront the work of our God and his Christ, our Savior Yeshua.

Galatians 3:22  But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.
23  But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.
24  Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
25  But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.
26  For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.
27  For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.
28  There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
29  And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.

For us, Jesus Christ literally became our fulfillment of all we do and are. Yet as followers, we are obedient to the faith and his call. In keeping these feasts, we do so out of love and in respect to the commandment and the early church who kept these also. Nevertheless, these bring a fulfillment in Christ Jesus. Jesus fulfilled the permanent redemption needed for all men and women who seek it on Yom Kippur. Christ already, permanently paid the price. On this day of Yom Kippur, we thank God for this redemption, pray, and seek him that all men, especially the observant Jews, would find Christ Jesus and the atonement he provides.

Towards the end of the month is ‘Feast of Tabernacles’, which in itself is a feast waiting to be fulfilled. In that, the Son of David, Jesus Christ will come and dwell or Tabernacle in Zion during the Millennial Kingdom.

1 Corinthians 3:16  ¶Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
1 Corinthians 3:17  If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.
1 Corinthians 6:19  What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own

Today we rejoice in this as “we are the temple of God and the Spirit of God dwells in us.” But this body will be put off, for it must die. Then we shall have a permanent tabernacle, made without hands. So as we rejoice during the ‘Feast of Tabernacles’, it reminds us of what Christ has done for us and in us. Yet he shall bring in a kingdom, a Throne, and will dwell or Tabernacle with us.  This is one prophetic aspect of Tabernacles.

2 Corinthians 5:1  ¶For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.
2  For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven:
3  If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked.
4  For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life.

Yet it also is a reminder for many Jews and observant believers in Yeshua as well. They build a ‘suka’, a ‘tabernacle’, or ‘booth’ to remind themselves of dwelling in booths when the Lord God brought them out of bondage in Egypt.  Some believers at this time spend the time camping out and rejoicing in the Lord. This time of the Feast of Tabernacles is for rejoicing, giving thanks, and looking to what the Lord is going to do. He will bring in his Kingdom!

Leviticus 23:39  Also in the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when ye have gathered in the fruit of the land, ye shall keep a feast unto the LORD seven days: on the first day shall be a sabbath, and on the eighth day shall be a sabbath.
40  And ye shall take you on the first day the boughs of goodly trees, branches of palm trees, and the boughs of thick trees, and willows of the brook; and ye shall rejoice before the LORD your God seven days.
41  And ye shall keep it a feast unto the LORD seven days in the year. It shall be a statute for ever in your generations: ye shall celebrate it in the seventh month.
42  Ye shall dwell in booths seven days; all that are Israelites born shall dwell in booths:
43  That your generations may know that I made the children of Israel to dwell in booths, when I brought them out of the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God.

Now as I write this, let me tell you this is not a theological paper to fully disclose all aspects of these feasts. Neither is it meant to tell anyone to keep these feasts. These feasts are kept in the heart and those who do these, keep them as they are led by the Spirit of God. These are about loving the Lord God our Father and Jesus Christ our Savior. It is about seeking and understanding what our God has done to bring redemption to us. The fact that the ‘Feast of Tabernacles’ will be kept in the millennium says volumes to the keeping of it.  For it will be in Zion that the Son of David, Jesus Christ, Yeshua Ha Massiach will be on the throne of David. It will be to his Tabernacle that all men will come to worship the King, the LORD of hosts and to keep the feast of tabernacles.

Zechariah 14:16  ¶And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles.

For our household, the fall feasts celebrate the harvest. Here is both the physical harvest of gardens, fields, and all that it entails in this aspect of sowing seed and reaping the fruits of that labor.  They see God as the true and ultimate source of all blessing and even cursing. That in life, God is in charge. He gives men life to enjoy and also allows us to have fruit from our labors. In this, we can literally live in and enjoy what the Lord has given to us. These feasts look forward to the time when the “New Year”, or Rosh Hashanah celebrated will be the ‘millennial kingdom’ of our King Jesus Christ, Yeshua. It is the start of and not the ending of the life the Lord God has planned for all those who love him.  This also sees to the future when a permanent redemption and atonement is fulfilled when we become like our Lord and live in his presence. This will be the time when the ‘tabernacle of God’ will be with men. In its fulness and with the Son of David, Yeshua Ha Massiach who will rule and reign forever.

This is the time of the feasts, and the prophetic eye that I see these with. They thus are a time not of servitude nor obligation, but of love to obey.  It is an experience of joy and of reflection for what he has done for all of us. It is a time to see ahead with faith and understand no matter what comes, our reward is steadfast and sure, if we do not give up! It is in this that we all must steadfastly and resolutely cling too. For the Kingdom of God we are in and grafted into is one of Power, Redemption, Forgiveness, and most importantly of Love. While many other faiths claim to offer many things, they do not give nor can they give the Father. For only through Jesus Christ can you come to Him.  Faiths today such as Islam live in a conquering and steadfast slaughter of people everywhere to bring in their faith. We live by faith knowing that we are in the “Kingdom of God”, the only True God and Father and Jesus Christ his Son. We do not fear men, kingdoms, nor what is coming, because we know him, in whom is all truth!

1 Corinthians 15:22  For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.
23  But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ’s at his coming.
24  Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.
25  For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet.
26  The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.
27  For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is excepted, which did put all things under him.
28  And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.

As we close down the days of 2010, let us enter into the next one of 2011 with full faith in the Son of God who died for us. It is at this time, this New year, Rosh Hashanah, unlike the secular celebrations of the solar calendar, we look ahead and ask Gods blessings, richness, sweetness, and guidance to us. We do so knowing that God directed us to do so in his Word. It is the same feast our Lord kept, the Apostles kept, and the early church. Yet whether you keep them or not, the truth does not change, Jesus Christ died for all sinners, of whom, Paul said “I am chief”. Well if Paul the Apostle thought of himself as the “chief” of sinners, where do you and I stand?  Truth is, we stand, neath the power of the blood, the cleansing tide of redemption flowing from the Savior upon the cursed tree of calvary. It is this work and this work alone that separates us as people who have true hope and those who only think they have hope!  Our Hope rests in the work of Jesus Christ. It is here that this is indeed the stone the builders rejected.

1 Timothy 1:15  This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.

John 1:10  He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
11  He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
12  But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
13  Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
14  And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
15  ¶John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me.
16  And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace.
17  For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.

For us at this time, it is the Fall, a harvest of blessing. To remember, thank God for, all he has done in us and in those of our family and friends and also literally for us. In this we find physical blessings combined with Spiritual blessings.  Yes, it is the time of the fall, winter approaches, but for now at this time, all is put on the back burner. We will seek the Lord, look to him, and find a time appointed in this season to worship him and seek his face. We do this at this time in the fall feasts, but not this time alone, for daily, we seek him. This is just a time appointed in the seasons of God and man to stop what your doing and look to the Redeemer and your God.

Scripture:
1 Corinthians 11:23  ¶For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread:

24  And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.

25  After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.

26  For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord’s death till he come.

27  Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.

Prophetic Countdown in the Days of Awe!

By the Watchman Dana G Smith

apocalypse

apocalypse

Zephaniah 1:18 Neither their silver nor their gold shall be able to deliver them in the day of the LORD’S wrath; but the whole land shall be devoured by the fire of his jealousy: for he shall make even a speedy riddance of all them that dwell in the land.

Zephaniah 2:3 Seek ye the LORD, all ye meek of the earth, which have wrought his judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may be ye shall be hid in the day of the LORD’S anger.

The world saw the dark day in which the Dow dropped 777 points in a one day nose dive at the beginning of the Jewish Holiday celebrating the New Year known as Rosh Hashanah. Putting this in perspective many analysts have been trying to calm the fears as major governments joined in the move to save the world economic system by buying up bad debt. Governments around the globe are putting together their own rescue packages as did our own Government after this historic drop of the Dow and the major US Wall street banks going under. As the American government nationalized the banks and put its own citizens in further debt, the nationalization of banks world wide have begun. The World officials and banking experts have been doing this in an attempt to save the world economy as fear spreads like a fire. Fox business news quoted Frank Davis, the director of sales and trading at LEK Securities who said “We’ve got fear selling going on. It’s hard to control logical when you have fear selling.”

Men’s Hearts fail them for fear of those things coming upon the earth [this includes financial crisis]

Luke 21:25 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;
26 Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.
27 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.

As Rosh Hashanah was finished in its celebration, it gave way to the ten day’s known as the “Days of Awe”, in which Jews spend their time fasting and praying to get their name in the book. This leads up to the holiest time of the year for Jews known as Yom Kippur, or literally ‘Atonement’. On this day, a total food and water fast is combined with all day long prayers and worship. This is the day Jews seek to get their names ‘sealed in the book.’ During all these Holidays, known as God’s Holidays, the world economic situation has been on the forefront. It also tells the world that there is change coming and to prepare. The prophecies in the book will be fulfilled.

“Global Economic Trouble”

Revelation 6:5 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.
6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.
7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.

Moreover, with the Nikkei index dropping to its lowest level in two decades, the world financial crisis is taking its toll. On this day, the day in which Yom Kippur begins at sundown, world markets are greeted by the Federal Reserve lowering its prime interest rate by a half point. The move to lower the rate was an historic one as the Bank of England, the European Central Bank, the Swiss Bank, Chinese Bank, and numerous others joined in to save the world economy.

“The Rise of the Beast who will shake the kingdoms, but will be brought down!”

Isaiah 14:13 For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.
15 Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.
16 They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms;

This is a sign of the times, prophetically. First on Rosh Hashanah we find the down dropped 777, a triumviral number of 7′s. Seven is a perfect, complete number, one of completion. With three of them on the downward spiral of the Dow, this signals a staunch warning. The year we have entered will be one of a financial crisis. It is one where the governments will not be able to handle. It is one where we find the LORD God shaking up the systems of government and their monetary markets as well. What these means is that the controls of what people buy and sell will now be even more controlled. Add to this more Governments taking on bad debt, centralizing banks, and having money problems. There is no better way to welcome the beast of Revelation, the son of Perdition in 2 Thessalonians 2 into the world than with this crisis. It also says to Americans that have had plenty, lived in excess, and worshipped the creature more than the creator; ‘it is time to repent and seek the LORD.’

“Your riches are motheaten, they will be as fire to your soul!”

James 5:1 ¶Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you.
2 Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are motheaten.
3 Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days.
4 Behold, the hire of the labourers who have reaped down your fields, which is of you kept back by fraud, crieth: and the cries of them which have reaped are entered into the ears of the Lord of sabaoth.
5 Ye have lived in pleasure on the earth, and been wanton; ye have nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter.

With the continuation of the financial crisis throughout these feasts which can be found in Leviticus 23, the warnings are to be taken very seriously. Now with Yom Kippur beginning at sundown tonight we find the historical move of all the banks worldwide following suit of the Federal Reserve and lowering interest rates. Along with this you find governments putting wads of money in the leaking dike of their own economies. The Son of Perdition, the beast, will have the power to control all financial interests. It is by no accident this is going on now. The LORD is warning the world that he is in control. We are living in that time when the great deceiver will appear. He will control all buying and selling. Today there is no better time to do this than now. With the ability in our technology to get instant access, credit, news, and have money flow from globe to globe in a short time, the control mechanisms will be put in place. With the American economy on the ropes, the dollar in trouble, the debt rising, the nozzle to credit tight, the world that follows our system of monetary policies will be in trouble as well. All this chaos is leading to the arrival of the Son of Chao’s, the child of perdition, the destroyer. Now granted, this arrival could be two years away, but the symptoms of the global money troubles are an invitation for this deceiver to appear. When he does, the issues facing world markets will be quieted. In short, this ‘angel of light’ will present solutions that the whole world will fall for.

The Son of Perdition, beast will control gold, silver, and will honor a god whom his fathers did not know!

Daniel 11:38 But in his estate shall he honour the God of forces: and a god whom his fathers knew not shall he honour with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and pleasant things.

The fall feasts all look forward to prophetically to the coming of the LORD Jesus Christ [Yeshua Ha Massiach]. Included in these is the time of repentance, examination, and seeking the LORD God, known as Yom Kippur. Add to this the time known as Sukkot or Tabernacles and you have a picture of the coming Messiah, Jesus Christ who will rule and reign in his Tabernacle from Jerusalem. He will also have all the nations come once a year to celebrate this ‘Feast of Tabernacles’. The economy, money crisis, credit crunch, debt, and global ability to finance will be affected to the point that fear and panic will spread as never before. Add to this the full signs found in

Matthew 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21 and you will have a true picture of what is coming.

Isaiah 55:6 ¶Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:

Acts 15:17 That the residue of men might seek after the Lord, and all the Gentiles, upon whom my name is called, saith the Lord, who doeth all these things.

For the believer today fasting, prayer, and seeking the LORD should be on their personal agenda. For the nations, peoples, and all children of disobedience, repentance is in order. We have but just started this road. The nations will be able to put duck tape fixings on this problem. The markets will continue to heave and swell. But in the end, the financial system will collapse as such, bringing in the true Globalization that many have been working for. In America, you have not seen anything yet. Trouble is coming; it is time to examine the sea worthiness of your life and family. See if it can bear up under the ‘Storm’ coming and the ‘whirlwind of the LORD.’

Nahum 1:3 The LORD is slow to anger, and great in power, and will not at all acquit the wicked: the LORD hath his way in the whirlwind and in the storm, and the clouds are the dust of his feet.

It is time to take Heed to yourselves, don’t get caught up in the cares of this life so that the Day of the LORD come upon you as a surprise!

Luke 21:34 And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares.
35 For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth.
36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.

In short, to summarize, this is just one of many signs pointing to the coming of the LORD. The fact that this sign has occurred during the Fall feasts, signifying a time of harvest, means that the LORD’S harvest is coming and we are to take these events as serious. It is a warning! Two harvests will be reaped, the harvest of wickedness and the harvest of righteousness. One represents rebellion, the other obedience. The global situation will continue to worsen as the one world control by the beast will be finalized upon mankind who has rejected the ‘love of the truth’. [See 2 Thessalonians 2] In Yeshua, atonement has been made, the warnings are continuing to go out, and the kingdom of the LORD is coming. It is time to prepare. The trouble and turmoil will continue on all levels, but those who are obedient to the LORD and follow him, will find out the LORD takes care of his own. It is time to trust, keep your loins gird about with the Truth the LORD has given to us in His Word. Then having done all to stand, therefore, stand, with your shield of faith, quenching all the arrows of the enemy.

2 Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are motheaten.
3 Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days.
4 Behold, the hire of the labourers who have reaped down your fields, which is of you kept back by fraud, crieth: and the cries of them which have reaped are entered into the ears of the Lord of sabaoth.
5 Ye have lived in pleasure on the earth, and been wanton; ye have nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter.

With the continuation of the financial crisis throughout these feasts which can be found in Leviticus 23, the warnings are to be taken very seriously. Now with Yom Kippur beginning at sundown tonight we find the historical move of all the banks worldwide following suit of the Federal Reserve and lowering interest rates. Along with this you find governments putting wads of money in the leaking dike of their own economies. The Son of Perdition, the beast, will have the power to control all financial interests. It is by no accident this is going on now. The LORD is warning the world that he is in control. We are living in that time when the great deceiver will appear. He will control all buying and selling. Today there is no better time to do this than now. With the ability in our technology to get instant access, credit, news, and have money flow from globe to globe in a short time, the control mechanisms will be put in place. With the American economy on the ropes, the dollar in trouble, the debt rising, the nozzle to credit tight, the world that follows our system of monetary policies will be in trouble as well. All this chaos is leading to the arrival of the Son of Chao”s, the child of perdition, the destroyer. Now granted, this arrival could be two years away, but the symptoms of the global money troubles are an invitation for this deceiver to appear. When he does, the issues facing world markets will be quieted. In short, this ”angel of light” will present solutions that the whole world will fall for.

The Son of Perdition, beast will control gold, silver, and will honor a god whom his fathers did not know!

Daniel 11:38 But in his estate shall he honour the God of forces: and a god whom his fathers knew not shall he honour with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and pleasant things.

The fall feasts all look forward to prophetically to the coming of the LORD Jesus Christ [Yeshua Ha Massiach]. Included in these is the time of repentance, examination, and seeking the LORD God, known as Yom Kippur. Add to this the time known as Sukkot or Tabernacles and you have a picture of the coming Messiah, Jesus Christ who will rule and reign in his Tabernacle from Jerusalem. He will also have all the nations come once a year to celebrate this ”Feast of Tabernacles”. The economy, money crisis, credit crunch, debt, and global ability to finance will be affected to the point that fear and panic will spread as never before. Add to this the full signs found in Matthew 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21 and you will have a true picture of what is coming.

Isaiah 55:6 ¶Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:

Acts 15:17 That the residue of men might seek after the Lord, and all the Gentiles, upon whom my name is called, saith the Lord, who doeth all these things.

For the believer today fasting, prayer, and seeking the LORD should be on their personal agenda. For the nations, peoples, and all children of disobedience, repentance is in order. We have but just started this road. The nations will be able to put duck tape fixings on this problem. The markets will continue to heave and swell. But in the end, the financial system will collapse as such, bringing in the true Globalization that many have been working for. In America, you have not seen anything yet. Trouble is coming; it is time to examine the sea worthiness of your life and family. See if it can bear up under the ”Storm” coming and the ”whirlwind of the LORD.”

Nahum 1:3 The LORD is slow to anger, and great in power, and will not at all acquit the wicked: the LORD hath his way in the whirlwind and in the storm, and the clouds are the dust of his feet.

It is time to take Heed to yourselves, don”t get caught up in the cares of this life so that the Day of the LORD come upon you as a surprise!

Luke 21:34 And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares.
35 For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth.
36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.

In short, to summarize, this is just one of many signs pointing to the coming of the LORD. The fact that this sign has occurred during the Fall feasts, signifying a time of harvest, means that the LORD’S harvest is coming and we are to take these events as serious. It is a warning! Two harvests will be reaped, the harvest of wickedness and the harvest of righteousness. One represents rebellion, the other obedience. The global situation will continue to worsen as the one world control by the beast will be finalized upon mankind who has rejected the ‘love of the truth’. [See 2 Thessalonians 2] In Yeshua, atonement has been made, the warnings are continuing to go out, and the kingdom of the LORD is coming. It is time to prepare. The trouble and turmoil will continue on all levels, but those who are obedient to the LORD and follow him, will find out the LORD takes care of his own. It is time to trust, keep your loins gird about with the Truth the LORD has given to us in His Word. Then having done all to stand, therefore, stand, with your shield of faith, quenching all the arrows of the enemy.

The Season of Purpose and Prophecy

The Season of Purpose and Prophecy

light shines through early morning

Above the early morning sun shines through clouds on the plains  

 

By the Watchman Dana G Smith

Keywords: season, prophecy, feasts, covenant

Acts 14:17  Nevertheless he left not himself without witness, in that he did good, and gave us rain from heaven, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness.

When Labor Day approaches the summer season is over, leastwise around these parts. I know this because I Have spent time, endless hours in the course of servicing tourists, for example during my time at Grand Teton national park, the season ended with Labor Day. That seems far ago, almost in another Galaxy so to speak. It was during a time right after our daughter graduated, moving out we also left home after selling out. We took up residence in a small RV and went to the Grand Teton Park. While there we both kept jobs at the park and learn the massive task of caring for of thousands of employees and even more tourists.

It was then as well both my wife and I warned the employees, friends we developed, and anyone who would listen for more than a few minutes of the coming trouble we knew was arriving on our shores and in the world. I remember distinctly walking down the main path from our residence in the early morning. Usually when I had a break, which was not very often. It was then I would look at the morning sun gleaming on the panhandle of Mount Moran. It was a gorgeous atmosphere to work in, but it was very stressful, with millions of visitors, all of whom had to be taken care of. When Labor Day arrived, we were more than ready to leave the park. We were part of those groups of people who were employed seasonally by various National park service companies. We had been employed by the GTLC.

Now once again summer is leaving us. I like the summer time. Fall though around here is full of what we term “Indian Summer.” This is also an ideal time. The changes in mountain scenery from green to gold take place, as hunters by the thousands take the task to the upper regions of the high peaks to take game. In the lower valleys the fisherman find the hearty challenges to trick the fall spawn of brown trout found in the rivers and streams. In the lakes the heavy traffic is gone as the lakes cool down, the bigger fish begin to move more and those fishermen in the know go for them. As I see the changes I remember the seasons. While there are parts of the country with more beautiful fall foliage, there is nowhere on earth in the fall except here in this country. Winter is usually round the corner, with December taking in its full swing at the season calendar. When it gets finished we begin with the newness of January and the winter really picks up then. We actually like to see January and even February come. Because once they go, we have spring back, the welcome summer again.

The seasons remind me the Lords in charge. Seasons, day, and night, remind me of the covenant the LORD made. This covenant which was fulfilled in Jesus Christ, Yeshua HaMassiach brought salvation to both Jew and Gentile. The Lord said if you could stop day or night in their season from occurring then the covenant found in David would be broken. But the comparing the unalterable day and night, the Lord set the bounds for them to continue forever until the end of time. Each season, each month, each day, and each time I pass through these the covenant of the LORD comes to mind.

Jeremiah 33:20  Thus saith the LORD; If ye can break my covenant of the day, and my covenant of the night, and that there should not be day and night in their season;

21  Then may also my covenant be broken with David my servant, that he should not have a son to reign upon his throne; and with the Levites the priests, my ministers.

Along with the covenant I also think of the feasts. In Leviticus we read of the ‘feasts of the LORD’. By the way both scriptures I have put in here with the capitalized LORD actually mean YHWH, the covenant personal name of God. We also say Yahweh or Jehovah. The name was considered so sacred the Jews would write and or say Adonai when using it. When Jesus [Yeshua] came though, he taught us to pray. This prayer was directed to ‘Our Father’ who art in heaven. We learned through the Messiah that the once distant God was being made known to all men through Jesus Christ, Yeshua HaMassiach his only begotten Son, who fulfilled the law and the prophets. He was then known as the Father and God of the Lord Jesus Christ [Yeshua HaMassiach]. Yeshua was and is the root of David.

Moreover, we are fast approaching the fall feasts. This is the time of harvest, which speaks of the Hebrew New Year which is 5769 this year! We celebrate a feast called Rosh Hashanah [Hebrew New Year] and one thing we do, for example is have a special time of apple slices and honey. The holiest day of the year is known as Yom Kippur, or the Day of Atonement. This was fulfilled for us in Jesus Christ, Yeshua HaMassiach who died for our sins, was buried, then resurrected, and is coming soon to complete our full restoration to the LORD. Then we celebrate Sukkot, the feast of tabernacles. This will be fulfilled upon the arrival of Yeshua HaMassiach to this earth to establish his rule and reign from Jerusalem on this earth. This will lead to the Millenial reign of Christ here with his Bride the believers which are found in Jesus [Yeshua]. These are the fall feasts, although there is many other feasts and traditions the Hebrew use.

Leviticus 23:4  ¶These are the feasts of the LORD, even holy convocations, which ye shall proclaim in their seasons.

These are but three of numerous feasts the believer should know about. For they all relate more background and detail of the greatness of our God and how he foreshadowed and foreknew to bring us a savior. The others are Passover, Shavuot or Pentecost, and some also celebrate ‘The Last Great Day’. The feasts are highly prophetic and foreshadow the plan of the LORD God. I recommend you become acquainted them in purpose and celebration.
