“Blow the trumpet

 in Zion, And sound an alarm in My

holy mountain!

Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble;

For the day of Yahweh is coming, For it is

at hand.”

          —Joel 2:1 NKJV

The Feast of Trumpets is one of the next Feast days in the line of Appointed Times of Yahweh that show His overall plan of salvation for mankind. We can see Yahshua’s sacrifice in Passover, and the purification process of the Days of Unleavened Bread. We can even see how the Holy Spirit is given to further help prepare a people for Yahshua’s return. This all brings us to Yahshua and the last trump, which many scholars rightly believe ushers in the coming Kingdom.

     Before the coming Kingdom, however, comes tribulation. There are 6 trumpet blasts before the last one is sounded. Many who look forward to Yahshua’s return do not understand that He, with His Father, actually delve out punishment to the world for its wickedness and the evils against Yahweh that are being committed at the end of the age.

     It is idolatrous to prioritize anything higher than Yahweh. This includes what one finds on magazine racks and in the movie theaters. Unrestrained hatred in the world is another sign just before the coming day of Yahweh. All these and much more will be dealt with and crushed, including those who pollute the earth. The book of Zephaniah in the Bible is a good book to read during the Feast of Trumpets.

     During the tribulation, a full 2/3rds of mankind will be destroyed; this means if there are 6 billion physical people at that time, only 2 billion will be alive when Yahshua stands on the Mount of Olives with His spiritually redeemed people (first-fruits from the 1^st resurrection).

     The Feast of Trumpets for us today is not only pointing to a time yet ahead, it also helps us remember the times in the past when Yahweh intervened on behalf of His people.

     Times of war, in which the trumpet was blown, Yahweh gave victory. In times of gathering in which the trumpet was blown, Yahweh was with His people. In times of moving forward, the trumpet was blown as Yahweh led His people.

     From the exodus to the walls of Jericho, the time of the trumpet blasts were significant and we are to remember these times during the Feast of Trumpets. We know Yahweh promises to be near His People as long as they humbly submit to Him through His Son Yahshua. As long as this is done, His People are showing obedience to Father Yahweh and faith in His Son.
     For those that humbly submit to the Word of Yahweh, there will be no need to fear the trumpet blasts that are yet to come. He promises protection and guidance. But we must remember that even though He is a loving Father, he does not let sinners go unpunished. We must do what He says and not just believe that He is and that He has sent His Son for the remission of our past sins. We are to live by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of Yahweh.

     The trumpet blasts of old should be  a reminder of the preeminence that Yahweh is to have in our lives. We are to wait and occupy the land until He sends His Son to redeem the first-fruits of His harvest.

     There is no doubt that the trumpet blasts yet to come will be remembered forever by those whom Yahweh has called out to be His sons and daughters to His glory and honor.

     The Feast of Trumpets is observed on the first day of the 7^th month of the biblical calendar, and it is a High Sabbath in which no regular work is to be done. This is a lasting ordinance - one that will be a yearly reminder of what Yahweh has done, is doing, and is yet to do.

  There is a change at Pentecost from simple understanding to a deeper meaning of truth by example. Keeping it holy as instructed by Yahweh is one of the first steps in learning more.

Each year we encourage people to step out in faith to keep holy the days Yahweh tells us to. Yes, finances are not always good. Yes, scheduling and planning must be done. Yes, our employer might fire us when we get back. Yes, there are always going to be excuses that one can come up with. Don’t let excuses this year keep you from being faithfully obedient to our Father.

     If you need help, whatever it may be, let us know. Let us help you as Yahweh has helped us. Be encouraged and let us strive to enter into the straight and narrow gate together. May Yahweh bless our efforts to please Him, in Spirit and truth.

"I just watched the video of the workers in the garden, it is such a blessing to be able to see this ongoing work. I am not and never have been a gardener but I know it is hard work, the smiles and the laughter I could hear shows the blessings of continued fellowship even during strenuous work. I have often wished I could join each of you in growing food that I know is much healthier than the vegetables where various chemicals are used to cause the food to grow faster, and added to that I know that Yahweh is blessing the work of your hands and the thought came to mind how much satisfying it must be to eat the work of your own hands and those who you've been able to help by this hard work...I can only praise Yahweh for the workers in the field in both a spiritual and natural sense.

     While I am unable to be there and do such work physically, I am able to go to Yahweh to ask that he strengthens each one of you in all ways that are needed because he knows best, and from my personal point of view I'd like to thank you for including this video on the website, thank you so much."        (Watch the Video)
