The Olive Harvest

Sunday, March 27, 2022

There's a beautiful symbol of Israel in the Bible. Israel is an olive tree. Paul wrote to the Gentile believers - as being grafted in to the Olive Tree of Israel. The fullness of the olive tree is linked to the coming salvation of Israel. When does the olive tree blossom? In the Hebrew calendar; it comes in autumn, at the end of the sacred year - at the time of the Feast of Trumpets. So the Jewish people will come to the Lord at the end of the age - near the time of Trumpets - as in Revelation, and the Coming of the Lord. Sharing with the Jewish people is hard, but there's a reason for it. The stakes are high, when they come; He comes. So pray for them, share the gospel with them and keep planting the seeds. The stakes are high, the reward is great, so it takes more sustained effort. Great crowns mean great races. Those things that are most precious are worth the good fight, and the blessing will come in its time just like the Olive Harvest.
