Numbers 10:1 "And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 2 Make thee two trumpets of silver; of a whole piece shalt thou make them: that thou mayest use them for the calling of the assembly, and for the journeying of the camps. 3 And when they shall blow with them, all the assembly shall assemble themselves to thee at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation."    Here we see in the Book of Numbe...

The purpose of the Trumpet is to assemble unto the Lord.  In Revelation 1, John heard a voice as a Trumpet, and He turned to see the voice.  What did John see?  What was he gathered to?  John was gathered up unto the Lord.  This was the distinction of the voice he heard.    In the Feast of Trumpets the children of Israel were gathered to the blowing of the Trumpet.  These Trumpets were made of sil...

When we look at the Feasts of Trumpets, what comes to mind?  Have we ever thought about it?  The Trumpet blast makes a powerful sound.  By the blast of the Trumpet, the walls of Jericho fell.     When we consider Jericho, the only sound coming from the seven priests was the sound of the Trumpet.  The trumpets of RAMs horns, a male lamb.  We could and should consider this voice to be the voice of t...

"That your fruit may remain."  These may be some of the most powerful words Jesus proclaimed as He walked upon the earth.  If we hear this, it can have an upmost impact to understanding the desire of God for our lives.  The fruit, remaining.    Jesus declared that, "I AM the Vine, you are the branches."  The substance of the Vine flows through us the branches.  The substance of the Tree, produces...

Considering that all things are fulfilled in Christ, and gathered up in Him, as Ephesians 1 says, how then would we define Tabernacles?  How was it fulfilled and how does it apply to us today?  I sincerely believe this study will help you and I arrive to that understanding. Looking back at the Feast of Tabernacles as it applied to the natural Israel, I want to bring to our attention that at this t...

This is the reality of Pentecost that we must come to, CHRIST IN OUR MIDST!  I grew up in Church as a Pentecostal.  In the understanding I grew up with, I never connected Pentecost to the Feasts of the Lord, but to the Baptism of the Holy Spirit.  This was my connection to Pentecost, that we would be Baptized in the Spirit, speak in tongues, and do the works of Jesus.  While I believe this to be t...

When we think on Pentecost, what was its ultimate purpose?   The Spirit would come.  This was the purpose of God in Pentecost.   He would pour out His Spirit and we would partake of it.     Now what was the purpose of the Spirit?  When the Spirit would come, he would show us Christ.  "He shall take of mine and show it to us."  He shall speak of Christ.  Christ would be revealed in us.  That is the...

We live by the Lord Jesus Christ.  He is our Life.  He is the Living Word.  At Mt. Sinai, a Covenant came that the children of Israel were to live by unto God.  This was all according to the flesh.  However, it was speaking of a GREATER WORD to come.  This GREATER WORD was a Person, who is our Lord Jesus Christ.   We are in Covenant with God in the Lord Jesus Christ.  He is the Word we live by.  C...

At Mount Sinai, the Israelites received the word, the law.  Through this Law, word of Covenant they were going to live unto God.  This Word would be their medicine and deliverance.  This Word would be on their mind and upon their heart all the days of the lives.  In fact, this Word would  dictate their life.     In Mount Zion, the High Place of the Lord, another WORD was given.  This Word was Chri...

The word Pentecost means fifty.  Fifty days after Passover the children of Israel were again gathered unto the Lord at Mt. Sinai.  Here they received the law.  Here they received the Covenant.  At Mount Sinai, Paul wrote in Galatians the Covenant gendered to bondage.  In Mount Zion, the Covenant was unto the freedom of the Spirit.    We who are in Christ are free from sin and death, and its penalt...

Joel 2:23  Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and rejoice in Jehovah your God; for he giveth you the former rain in just measure, and he causeth to come down for you the rain, the former rain and the latter rain, in the first month.  24  And the floors shall be full of wheat, and the vats shall overflow with new wine and oil. 25 And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the c...

God said in the Book of Acts, through the Apostle Peter, "In the last days I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh."  What were the last days that were spoken of here?  Was it dealing with the last days of planet earth?  of the last days of humanity? or is there another idea in the heart of God?     Are the last days, referring to the last days of the Old Covenant?  Was the pouring out of the...

In the Book of Acts Chapter 2 is written the record of the coming of the Holy Spirit.  Acts 2:1 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. 2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. 3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of...

In this lesson Passover is broken down.  Looking close at Leviticus 23:1-9 you can see that there are 3 Feasts contained in Passover.  These speak of His death, His burial and His resurrection.  These Feasts are Passover, Unleavened Bread, and First Fruits. Jesus Himself went into death, He was buried, and He was raised from the dead.  This was done by Him and Him alone.  We are partakers of His w...

In the Book of Exodus, it is declared that the Passover is the Lord's sacrifice when He passed over the Israelites in the land of Goshen.  Before any Israelite was a partaker of the work of the Lord there was a slain lamb with the blood on the door lintel.  The Israelites had to enter into the Blood of that Lamb and eat its flesh in order to come out of that house in the brightness of the new day....

In the Lord's death, He struck the death blow to the old man.  The Israelites came out of Egypt through the striking of the Lord.  We come out of Adam, religion, and every bondage through the striking of the Lord.  I am so thankful to God's death blow.  "For we are dead and our life is hid with Christ in God."  Christ is our life and is appearing in us to God's Glory!.  Amen.

The Israelites did not just have Three Feasts.  They had a specific time, order and place of the Feasts.  Everything in Israel centered around the Lord and the Tabernacle or Temple.  The fulfillment is the same as the shadow.  The time, place and order centers around the Lord and His House. "You are the Temple of God, as God has said," II Corinthians 6:16. II Corithians 13: 5 " Examine yourselves,...

In Exodus 3, Jehovah said to Moses that He had come down to deliver the people out of  the bondage of Egypt. In His deliverance He told the children of Israel that they would be taking a 3 Day Journey.  This 3 day journey is of utmost significance, as it is speaking of the death, burial, and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ.     Exodus 3:7 "And Jehovah said, I have surely seen the affliction...

Over the next few months, I will be posting an in depth study of the Feasts of the Lord.  In our Bible class we went through the Feasts in depth.  Our aim and goal was to see how these are gathered up and fulfilled in the Lord Jesus Christ, and how we as believers partake of His fulfillment.     In this study, I came to more in depth understanding of Passover, Pentecost, and Tabernacles.  There we...

I AM The Door I - The I AM’s of Jesus Jesus says in John’s Gospel that He is the door, and you shall go in and out and find pasture.  The question I want us to reflect on is if we walk into the door who is Christ, why would I ever come out of that door?  We should surely stay there, correct?   I used to think this meant we go into Christ, maybe into very deep places and then come out and distribut...

The Church which is His Body X – The Church and the Glory of Christ In Exodus, God declared His Name Jehovah to Moses.  In the name of Jehovah God began to reveal Himself as the God of Deliverance, as the God of Covenant with His people, and as the God in the midst of Israel.  Israel came to be known as His people, and Jehovah as their God.  Throughout the wilderness journey and into Canaan Jehova...

The Church which is His Body – Jehovah M-Kaddesh THE LORD WHO SANCTIFIES God declared himself to Moses at the burning bush as the I AM THAT I AM.  As He began to reveal Himself to Israel, He began to reveal Himself through the Jehovah names.  One of which is Jehovah M-Kaddesh, which means the LORD who sanctifies.  Let us hear this.  The Church which is His Body.  We are sanctified or set apart to...

The Church which is His Body VIII – Son of Man III All men were dead in Adam.  Jesus came as Adam.  He came into man.  He was God, but came into man.  As a man He died to bring this mankind to death, the death of His cross.  We could say, He executed death to death.  He gave death the deathblow.  This is the death that was in Adam.  God becoming man, was to free man from the bondages of death. In...

The Church which is His Body – Son of Man II “Matthew 16:13-18 When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am? 14 And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets. 15 He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? 16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Tho...
