Days of Awe & the Rhythm of the Kingdom: True Readiness, Not Date-Setting – KIB 499 Description In this Kingdom Intelligence Briefing, Dr. Michael and Mary Lou Lake call the Remnant back into the rhythm of the Kingdom during the Days of Awe—away from hype, date-setting, and pagan substitutes. From Matthew 24 to Numbers 10, we explore daily practices that cultivate holiness, discernment, and protection for our homes, and we address the rising chaos around Halloween and other occult seasons. This is a sober call to walk in sync with Jesus, close the doors to Babylon, and live ready. Key themes: Day of Atonement & the believer's judgment, the “wheat and tares” reality, why hyper-grace and universalism miss the mark, how feasts tune us to Heaven's cadence, and practical morning/evening prayers to guard your home.
The ten days between Yom Teruah and Yom Kipur are known as the days of awe. It is a time to take stock of what one has accomplished in the past year and plan for the future. In doing this, one can draw inspiration from Moses. His accomplishments during the last month of his life were truly great. One can also draw inspiration from the martyrdom of Charlie Kirk. That event has catalyzed believers all over America and may turn out to be one Satan's great mistakes.
Rosh Hashanah, “The Head of the Year,” is the fifth of the seven holy observances mentioned in Leviticus 23. This name is never used in the Scriptures to refer to this feast, despite the fact that it is the most common name used today. This name is used because the Rabbis believed it was on this day that the creation took place. Thus, it has become known as the beginning of the Jewish civil calendar year.In the Bible, Rosh Hashanah is called “Yom Teruah,” (“A Day of Blowing”), referring to the blowing of the “shofar” or ram's horn (Numbers 29:1). It is also called “Zicharon Teruah,” (“a memorial of blowing,” or “a remembrance of blowing”) (Leviticus 23:24). Rosh Hashanah occurs on the 1st of Tishrei (the seventh month in the Hebrew calendar), whereas Yom Kippur (the next major festival) is observed on the 10th day of Tishrei. The ten days between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur are called “Yomim Naraiim” or “Days of Awe.” It is during these ten days that Jewish people are to perform deeds of repentance and restoration in order to be assured that their sins are forgiven on Yom Kippur.Most notably, Rosh Hashanah is known for the blowing of the ram's horn. According to the Rabbis, the sounding of the ram's horn symbolized the final regathering of the Jewish people when Messiah comes, and the dead are resurrected. In Isaiah 27:13 we read:“And in that day a great trumpet (shofar) will sound. Those who were perishing in Assyria and those who were exiled in Egypt will come and worship the Lord on the holy mountain in Jerusalem.”With this, the B'rit Hadashah (“New Testament”) agrees. Matthew 24:31 states,“And He will send His angels with a loud trumpet (shofar) call, and they will gather His elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other.”In this verse, Yeshua prophesied four things will happen at His second coming: First, angels will be sent out to regather the Jewish people; Second, this event will be accompanied with the blast of the shofar; Third, the focus is the regathering of the “elect” or “chosen,” by which is meant the Jewish people; Fourth, this regathering is from a worldwide dispersion.YouTube: https://youtube.com/live/JBIgpgVg5g4Send us a text

Crystal Rivers | Word for Now | Sep 22, 2025 This content presents a Christian theological framework centered on Jewish festivals, particularly Rosh Hashanah, as spiritually significant seasons for believers. The central premise is that specific times of year, especially during Jewish holy days, represent "chairo seasons" when divine activity increases and spiritual encounters become more accessible. The teaching emphasizes that spiritual preparation through prayer, scripture study, and sacrifice creates opportunities for angelic visitations and divine revelation. It interprets biblical stories like Abraham's encounter with three visitors and Jacob wrestling with an angel as examples of how spiritual readiness during transitional seasons can lead to supernatural encounters and divine commissioning. The content reframes Rosh Hashanah (called "Yom Teruah" or day of trumpet blowing) as a time when God invites believers to "rule and reign" through receiving His word for the coming season. This is connected to the biblical account of David's anointing, suggesting that just as kings were anointed with oil that flowed according to their spiritual capacity, believers can receive divine authority and direction during these seasons. Several interpretations diverge from mainstream Christian theology, particularly regarding "evil spirits from God" in scripture, which the teaching explains as consequences of prior spiritual rebellion rather than divine judgment. The content also emphasizes that spiritual encounters require specific preparation and that only those with "ears to hear" will receive what God is releasing in each season. The overall message promotes active spiritual engagement during Jewish festival seasons, suggesting that believers who position themselves correctly through spiritual disciplines will experience restoration, encounters, and divine commissioning that others will miss. However, some of the claims about specific dates, direct revelation, and supernatural encounters should be approached with discernment, as they represent particular interpretative traditions rather than universally accepted Christian doctrine.

Yom Teruah: The Prophetic Call of the Shofar Yom Teruah represents one of Yahweh's divinely appointed times, calling us into sacred remembrance and response. As the first day of the seventh month, this holy convocation requires careful watching for the new moon's appearance. The Hebrew "Zichron Teruah" translates as "a memorial of the shout of the shofar," revealing that our focus should center on hearing and responding to Elohim's call rather than simply producing sound. The shofar carries four distinct sounds: Tekiah proclaims rejoicing and hope, Shevarim calls us to humble ourselves before the coming King, Teruah pleads for mercy before the Judge, and Tekiah Gedolah points to the ultimate trumpet announcing the King's return. These sacred sounds echo from Mount Sinai to the future resurrection, connecting us across time to Yahweh's eternal purposes. Known as "the day no one knows" due to new moon timing, Yom Teruah points prophetically to Mashiach's return. The parable of ten virgins illustrates this theme of readiness and spiritual preparation. The shofar announces multiple messianic themes: Israel's regathering, resurrection of the righteous, coronation of the King, and the great judgment. As we hear these trumpet blasts, we prepare our hearts for relationship with Yahweh before the coming Day of Atonement.

Feast of Trumpets (Rosh Hashanah) 2025: Begins sunset of Monday, September 22, 2025 Ends nightfall of Wednesday, September 24, 2025 The Feast of Trumpets is established in Leviticus 23, when God told Moses that the people of Israel should have "a rest, a reminder by blowing of trumpets." But what is the blowing of the trumpets meant to remind the Israelites of? And what does this celebration have to do with us today?

Rosh Hashanah is one of the most celebrated days in the Jewish year — but what is it really about? Is it the Day of Judgment? The birthday of the world? The creation of man? Or simply the mitzvah of blowing the shofar?In this High Holidays Masterclass, we explore how all of these elements connect, revealing three dimensions of Rosh Hashanah:Malchuyot — crowning God as King, the detailed judgment of the year.Zichronot — God's remembrance of creation and His infinite kindness.Shofarot — the essence of the soul crying out, reaching God's very essence.Discover why the Torah only calls it Yom Teruah, why the shofar must be a simple ram's horn, and how the essence of your soul is revealed on this day.Takeaway: The shofar is not just a sound — it's your essence calling out to God. And when your essence is revealed, God's essence is drawn into the world, recreating it anew with blessing and life.A weekly class for 5 weeks. We will be using this text https://a.co/d/1PmaeD7.

Did you know that there are EXACTLY 70 WEEKS from the 7th day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread following the second Passover this year 2025 to Yom Kippur or Day of Atonement 2026? Additionally if you count the 7 Sabbaths of the Omer following the Feast of First Fruits for the Second Passover this year and then you count an additional 62 Sabbaths (as in Daniel 9:25 says 7 weeks or 7 sevens i.e. 7 sabbaths & 62 weeks, sevens or sabbaths that's 69 sabbaths from the feast of first fruits for the second Passover this year) you come to Yom Teruah or Feast of Trumpets 2026 which is ON THE 69TH Sabbath after the feast of First Fruits! All throughout scripture prophecy most times has a long plan and then a short plan. The long plan is always first and the fulfillment may be in the distant future, and you don't know the day or the hour that it will be fulfilled. Then the short plan is very often revealed, including the date of its coming fulfillment once you get really close to its time. So, there can be two timelines for one prophecy or set of prophecies, a long plan and a short plan, a far plan and a near plan. Consider Noah who began building his boat 120 years before the flood came. He knew it was going to come, he just didn't know when that was the long plan, but then the short plan was revealed to him seven days before the flood came. As the time of fulfillment neared, he was told exactly what day it would start to rain. Same thing with the exodus from Egypt. The long plan was revealed to Abraham, Isaac, and then Jacob. As they got closer to going to Egypt, the plans became more distinct. Abraham saw it afar off, and Jacob actually went to Egypt. But still, it was a long plan… the rest of 400 years before they would know exactly when the exodus was coming. Then, when Moses came back from the desert, he revealed the short plan and they knew exactly when they were going to leave, the night of Passover. Same thing with Daniel 9, all of Daniel's visions actually, but Daniel 9:24-27 is what we're specifically dealing with in part 1 of this message regarding verse 24's long plan of 3500 years and in part 2 verses 25's and 27's short plan of 70 actual weeks of days.

SHEMA HaDAVAR (Hear the Word) by Reggie Lisemby, Executive Servant of Messianic Ministry to Israel
The fifth of seven Feasts of YHWH, the Feast of Trumpets may well be the season of our Lord's return for His holy ones, the dead in Messiah rising first, then those alive caught up with them ever to be with the Lord Yeshua!
Yom Teruah can be translated as a day of cheering. In Revelation when the seventh trumpet sounds there is cheering in Heaven because "the kingdom of the world has become the Kingdom of our Lord and of His Christ." At that time Christ will begin purging the world of His enemies, those who worship false gods. The impulse to idolatry has not gone away. What does it look like today when people in the church turn to other gods in the same way that Israel did in the past?
The Jewish feasts are prophetic in nature and look to the person and the work of Christ. So, how is The Feast of Trumpets (Rosh Hashanah or Yom Teruah) fulfilled? When will that trumpet sound? And where are we on the end times timeline?
Shabbat "Shuvah" is the "Sabbath of 'Return'" after Yom Teruah (aka, "Rosh HaShanah") and before Yom Kippur – the Day of Atonement. Returning to God is taught to us by Messiah Yeshua in the form of the parable of "The Prodigal Son." It is a powerful model of how return from irrational separation into relational joy is enabled by rational and spiritual erasure of ill-founded shame.

Looking into the Shout of The Lord are you a Watchman?The Feast of Trumpets 2024Ezekiel 316 At the end of seven days the word of the Lord came to me: 17 “Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the people of Israel; so hear the word I speak and give them warning from me. 18 When I say to a wicked person, ‘You will surely die,' and you do not warn them or speak out to dissuade them from their evil ways in order to save their life, that wicked person will die for[b] their sin, and I will hold you accountable for their blood. 19 But if you do warn the wicked person and they do not turn from their wickedness or from their evil ways, they will die for their sin; but you will have saved yourself.20 “Again, when a righteous person turns from their righteousness and does evil, and I put a stumbling block before them, they will die. Since you did not warn them, they will die for their sin. The righteous things that person did will not be remembered, and I will hold you accountable for their blood. 21 But if you do warn the righteous person not to sin and they do not sin, they will surely live because they took warning, and you will have saved yourself.”22 The hand of the Lord was on me there, and he said to me, “Get up and go out to the plain, and there I will speak to you.” 23 So I got up and went out to the plain. And the glory of the Lord was standing there, like the glory I had seen by the Kebar River, and I fell facedown.24 Then the Spirit came into me and raised me to my feet. He spoke to me and said: “Go, shut yourself inside your house. 25 And you, son of man, they will tie with ropes; you will be bound so that you cannot go out among the people. 26 I will make your tongue stick to the roof of your mouth so that you will be silent and unable to rebuke them, for they are a rebellious people. 27 But when I speak to you, I will open your mouth and you shall say to them, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says.' Whoever will listen let them listen, and whoever will refuse let them refuse; for they are a rebellious people.In scripture, the blowing of trumpets was used to signal an important occurrence, a call to action andor worship, announcing the new moon and the festivals, the Moedeim, as well as many other key events. So if you hear a trumpet blast, you know it has a purpose, and it is our responsibility to know what that purpose is. How will we know? By reading His Word and maintaining a prayerful relationship with our Redeemer through the power of the Ruach HaKodesh. https://member.bulldozerfaith.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/BulldozerFaith-Monthly-Newsletter-SEPTEMBER-24.pdfhttp://member.bulldozerfaith.com/givepaypal.me/bulldozerfaith https://cash.app/$bulldozerfaith https://member.bulldozerfaith.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/Bulldozerfaith-Monthly-Magazine-October-2023.pdfDaily Devotional and teaching with Kenny Russell - Get connected with our Podcast Channelshttps://feeds.captivate.fm/what-then-shall-we-sayEmail kenny@bulldozerfaith.comNews Magazine - https://member.bulldozerfaith.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/BulldozerFaith-Monthly-Magazine-March-2024.pdf
God gave us a Calendar that reveals who Jesus is and what He will do for us. This calendar helps define and govern our lives. For the Fall Holy Days, we will start with the first which is called Yom Teruah or the Day of Blowing (ram's horns/trumpets). It is all about Jesus our King and His return to judge the living and the dead. For Yom Teruah last year we looked at Psalm 2 and how it was fulfilled by Jesus. This year we will take a dive into the book of Revelation and what it says about this holy day. Join us in this journey of discovering more about who Jesus is and who we are in Him.
Are you planning Passover? Passover is a celebration that requires significant planning whether you are celebrating in your own home with your family or with a group. In Temple times, people would “register” for a lamb in groups of about fifty people. Since sacrificial animals all turn a year older on Elul 1 Rosh Hodesh Elul, the new moon festival of the month of Elul marks the opening of the time window when one-year-old lambs qualified for the Pesach will be born. Elul 1 is ma'aser behema, or the counting of domesticated animals. During the time of the Temple, this day was the new year to determine the start date of animal tithes. The lambs would therefore be a year old even though technically aged about six months or less. Since only a kazayit (the size of an olive) of the lamb had to be eaten to meet the requirement of sharing the Pesach, one lamb sufficed for many people. They simply needed to share in its suffering, not make the main meal from it. The celebratory meal of the chag (joyous festival) was the main course to fill the belly. During Second Temple times, if you did not register ahead of time to share in a lamb, then you were not permitted to eat from it! Yikes. Such delay in planning one's worship was considered a severe spiritual lapse. We might compare this to someone who has many opportunities to accept Yeshua as savior, yet refuses or delays repeatedly. When the Day comes, it is too late. Practically speaking, a person could make a last-minute purchase and bring his own lamb by procuring one himself, but that's a lot of meat for one person to eat before midnight! Passover is a type and shadow of salvation, but it is also predictive of how we acquire an identity with the holy community of Israel. From smaller family and friends gatherings, we grow together and eventually stand as one people at Shavuot and the fall feasts of Yom Teruah and Yom HaKippurim. A chag is a “memorial,” so while you're planning, why not plan to make it memorable? Since an essential element of Pesach is teaching children, the part of the seder that is telling the story of the Exodus can ALWAYS be made memorable to children. For instance, one year, I dressed up in Egyptian costume as “The Plague Lady.” It required a few months of planning! I don't have any photos from that seder because I was too busy plaguing people, but I looked pretty scary. Here's what I did: 1. Water turning to blood: I purchased small (dead) baitfish and a whole big fish from the market and submersed the big fish in a pitcher of red Kool-Aid. When the leader announced the plague, I came in and offered to serve the kids' table drinks from the pitcher. Yes, they screamed. I then threw some of the dried fish onto their table. Be careful with that one. One of the kids tried to eat one. 2. Frogs: Over a month before the seder, I purchased a frog pinata and three packages of catfish stinkbait. I opened the stinkbait, inserted it into the pinata, then wrapped the frog in a big Hefty bag and left it in the garage until Passover. I unwrapped it just after the dead fish Kool-Aid, unplugged the pinata, and then I walked through the room swinging the pinata around. Yes, it was horrible. I also bought some frog legs from the market and threw some onto the kids' table. I don't think anyone tried to eat those. We were all nauseated from the stinkbait frog. It smelled so bad you could taste it. 3. Lice: Easy-peasy. Lice-rice, baby, but go easy. Clean-up is a mess. 4. Flies: Cheap party favors, a dollar a bag. Pass them out to parents ahead of time so they can throw them at the kids. You won't have to worry about clean-up. The kids will scoop them up to take home. 5. Livestock pestilence: I took a huge stuffed cow, wrapped it in some bandages, stuffed a thermometer in her mouth, and made a “litter.” We took a few trips around the kids' table asking if there were a doctor in the house.
Do you know how the Biblical festivals point to Christ? Many think of the holidays celebrated in Judaism as being just for the Jews and not relevant to believers today. What those people don't realize is the strong connection they have to our Messiah. The Bible has more to teach us using God's holidays than may be realized by the average person in the Body of Christ.
The regular Torah portion now includes the very last few in the Book of Deuteronomy, the life of Moses himself, and thus some of his final admonitions, including the second, and final, "Song of Moses," in parsha "Ha'azinu," chapter 32 of Debarim. This week is also the Sabbath that falls between the sounding of the shofar, Yom Teruah, that begins the Fall Feasts of Yah, the the tenth day of the seventh month, and "holiest day of the year," Yom Kippur, of the Day of Atonement...sometimes called "Shabbat Shuva," or the Sabbath of Return. It's also a time of GREAT 'Misunderstanding' for most of 'xtianity,' that has been taught one of the Biggest Lies in all human history - that the Creator of the Universe and Author of Scripture 'did away with' His own Written "law" (actually, 'Instruction,' - His Word) and didn't mean it when He said - repeatedly - to keep MY feasts (moedim, and Appointed Times) "forever" - wherever your end up. The Erev Shabbat reading and overview is about that Song of Moses itself, chapter 32: https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/SSM-9-22-23-Ha-azinu-Yom-Kippur-Deut-32-teaching-podcast-xx.mp3 The "Shabbat Shuba" teaching addresses that misunderstanding, and the whole point of the Sabbath of RETURN directly. And this year, even more than others before it, given the Evil now rampant in the world, is a particularly poignant reminder of why He has told us to remember His "Appointed Times." There is, however, one question that always seems to come up regarding the commandment to observe the "Day of Atonement,' Yom Kippur, by "afflicting our souls." Most of us have been told that might mean to fast for the entire day. But why not just say that? Could there be more?

The time of the Fall Feasts means that the "regular Torah portions" end up getting shuffled a bit, especially given the "calendar variants" many of us see. But as the Torah cycle begins to wrap up, parsha Vayelekh (Deuteronomy chapter 31) is one of the final few, but there are also a number of readings that deserve attention as well at this special time. Join Mark Call of Shabbat Shalom Mesa fellowship for a look at the first of those. The Erev Shabbat reading includes Deuteronomy 31 itself, and helps to put some of the other aspects of Yom Teruah, the first of His Fall 'Moedim' or Appointed Times, into perspective: https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/SSM-9-15-23-Vayelekh-Yom-Teruah-Deut-31-teaching-podcasat-xx.mp3 This weekend marks the day of Trumpets, or shouting, known in Hebrew as Yom Teruah, which is unique among the moedim of YHVH because it is the only one associated with the new moon. It's even been referred to for that reason as the one which, until it arrives, "no one knows the hour or the day." It has always been true, even if the 'whore church' would try to claim otherwise, that observing His Appointed Times, as we are commanded, brings blessings. But, 'in such a time as this,' there's more reason than ever. Especially when we come to understand what Paul was REALLY saying in Colossians 2!

The Feast of Trumpets is certainly about the Lord's return, but the question may be, are YOU ready for Him to return?
The sound of the shofar (ram's horn) calls us to something extraordinary - Yom Teruah, commonly known as the Day of Trumpets. This isn't just any call; it's an announcement, a heralding of something majestic. The trumpet's sound penetrates the soul, reminding us to awaken from our spiritual slumber. For Christians, the trumpets hold a dual meaning: they remind us of God's sovereignty and offer a glimpse into future prophetic events, like the return of Jesus.

Do you know why we have a day for blowing the shofar, Yom Teruah? When have you sounded the shofar in your life? Join Rabbi Kevin Solomon of Congregation Beth Hallel as he welcomes Rosh Hashanah with insight into some of the shofar blast's primary uses during times of conflict. It can be a call to press forward, to pause, to signal victory, or to be a warning. Sin can seep into your life if you are not alert!

Today is Yom Teruah, The blowing of the trumpets for the Feast of Trumpets - Today we will take a look at Psalm 94 and gain an understanding of how David saw through the difficulties of his day and proclaimed that even though it looked bad, our Heavenly Father was still in control. Even though it looked like the evil would prevail, YHVH would have the last word. The key was and is to stay faithful to the instructions that He has given us in His Word. At the beginning of this "Rosh Hashanah" new year, let us all recommit to walking the path He has laid out for us to walk.

The Feast of Trumpets Begins at sunset on September 15, 2023 Ends at nightfall on September 17, 2023 The Feast of Trumpets is established in Leviticus 23, when God told Moses that the people of Israel should have "a rest, a reminder by blowing of trumpets." But what is the blowing of the trumpets meant to remind the Israelites of? And what does this celebration have to do with us today? Rabbi Schneider answers these questions and more in this important episode on Yom Teruah (the Feast of Trumpets). Visit our website at DiscoveringTheJewishJesus.com
Ever been on a hunt for your glasses just to find them perched on your head? Or searched for your phone while you're actually holding it? Sometimes the things we're looking for are right in front of us, hidden in plain sight. We wrote this guide with our Christian friends in mind for that very reason. You might think that the upcoming Jewish High Holy Days aren't for you, that they're exclusively a 'Jewish thing.' We get it, but hear us out. We're not saying you're wrong for thinking that way, but we do believe you're missing out on something truly transformative. We invite you to take a closer look, to consider the deeper connections, and to broaden your understanding of faith by acknowledging its roots. So stay with us; you might just discover something you never knew you were missing. The Ten Days of Awe, also known as the High Holy Days, are a significant period in the Jewish calendar. These represent the last three festival days given to Israel in Leviticus 23 in the Hebrew Bible, or what we at The Jewish Road like to call Act One of a two-act play. These festival days are actually called Moedim in Hebrew, or “Appointed Times.” These are God's appointed times for Israel in which He laid out the course of history for Israel and, in fact, the world as He brings everything to fulfillment in His kingdom. We should note that there are seven appointed times or festival days given to Israel in Leviticus 23, and they were all prophetic. Four of them have been historically fulfilled, leaving the final three festival days that occur in the fall as prophetic and yet to be fulfilled. Having said that, the first appointed time on the Fall calendar is in Leviticus 23:23-25, the Feast of Trumpets or Yom Teruah in Hebrew, the Day of Blowing Trumpets. This is the first of the High Holy Days on Israel's calendar and it is celebrated today as Rosh Hashanah or the Jewish new year. However, if we look at verse 23 we read that this day is a solemn rest and memorial that occurs on the first day of the seventh month, Tishrei. The first month on the Hebrew calendar is Nisan, the time of Passover in the spring. How is this disparity reconciled? Jewish people traditionally began to celebrate this holiday as Rosh Hashanah as the civil new year on Israel's calendar, beginning during the second Temple period. It is strictly traditional as the new year is in the spring. Interestingly, the Babylonians celebrated their new year at this time and we believe that Israel brought that tradition with them some time after the Babylonian captivity. The blowing of the shofar or the trumpet was meant to bring Israel's attention to a time of reflection, repentance, and renewal as we turn our attention to God. It is a time when people take a hard look at their lives and actions over the past year. Traditionally, this begins what is called the Ten Days of Awe. It's believed that God opens the Book of Life on Rosh Hashanah and seals it on Yom Kippur, deciding the fate of each individual for the upcoming year. Why is this season important? Well, it's a rare pause, a collective breath for introspection. It's not just about asking for forgiveness, but also about forgiving others and oneself. In Jewish tradition, it's a time to set the tone for the year ahead, wipe the slate clean, and start anew. It's why on the civil calendar, the Jewish community calls this the Jewish New Year. You'll probably see on your local TV news a Happy New Year wish to “our Jewish friends” and you'll see a graphic of apples and honey, that your new year may be sweet. But really, this isn't just a religious exercise; it's a deeply human one, a call from the Creator to not only look back, but also look forward.
