Wednesday evening is the beginning of Rosh Hashanah or the Day
of the sounding of the shofar. It is one
of the Biblical Holy Days or appointed times according to Leviticus 23:23-25
and Numbers 29:1-6. I like to call it the
Annual Commemoration of the Second Coming of Jesus. Many have taught that we should be prepared
as if He is to return at any time and while I think that is a good idea, it is
also beneficial to have a specific day to commemorate that great and terrible
day. Revelation 11:15 records the
sounding of the 7th Shofar (trumpet) and the following
chapters and versus detail His return. Rosh
Hashanah is the 1st day of the 7th month on the
Biblical calendar (1st Tishrei).
The 7th shofar announces the coming of King Jesus! At the same time the shofar is meant to wake
us up from our slumber as it also symbolizes repentance. Now is the time to repent and to come into a
right relational covenant with the King of all Kings.
May grace come and may this world pass away. Hoshanah to the G-d of David! Everyone who is
holy, let him come. Everyone who is not,
let him repent. May He come soon and in our days. Amen
May you be inscribed for a sweet new year
