The Trumpet & The Harvest

Friday, August 25, 2023

Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year's Biblical name is "Yom Teruah" Day of the Blasting - Feast of Trumpets. Israel was commanded to blow the Shofar; the ram's horn, to signal that the summer harvest was over, the Great Day of Atonement was near. Get ready to stand before your God. The Feast of Trumpets is prophetic. We're in the age of the great harvest. The next great event will be the sound of the trumpets which will end the harvest. Then we will each stand before God. We pretend this life will never end. We waste our time putting off what we know is right for tomorrow. We fall asleep. But the Feast of Trumpets is God's wake-up call; you don't have forever here. You walk through this life only once and one day you'll stand before your Maker. Therefore, if you would do good, repent, tell that person you love them, forgive or be forgiven, get right, step out in faith, live in righteousness. Do it now. Hear the trumpets, do it today. For tomorrow may not come and the day of salvation is today.
