April 7th 2012 we celebrated the Passover (Pesach)  my birthday was April 5th and God brought great deliverance to our family once again in his love , mercy and grace. April 7th we took communion and talked about the passover. The feasts have been a great building block of bonding for our family . As well as,  to gather to make recognition of the priorities of our hearts and lives. Actually since then we have been led to keep the sabbath day which we CHOOSE to do on Saturdays. And whatever work I have to do I just dont do it. It's a busy world if you cant prepare the night before maybe your doing too much. As for the sabbath day we just stop what we are doing to rest in Jesus and his work he did for us upon the cross.

 

 May 27th God allowed us to glorify him and celebrate the feast of weeks/ Pentecost (the Shavout). We watched a movie , prayed and glorified God. May 1st we set aside that Saturday to pray for the nation , world and the needs of others.

 

 June 1st we made a list of important topics to pray for and we prayed togethor as a family. During one of those weeks we watched a christian movie and set aside a Saturday for a cleaning out of our temples day. And we threw the things out God led us to throw out that were not of God and a hindrence to our faith in God. Another day in June we also did the breaking of cords/ generational curses as a family.

 

 

June 17th was special because Ethan's birthday was on Father's day. And his dad passed away this year. So I believe God set it up as a special memorial for his birthday and of God's love for him. The Saturday before we worshipped God as our Heavenly Father and made confessions of our love for him to him. 

 

This year for Independance Day we hung out with some of our christain brothers and sisters in the Lord. We gave them some excerpts from the website and some poetry. We let our daughter swim and we all ate and prayed together. But what I got out of our celebration of freedom is the freedom we have in Christ. And what I would with the Lord's help like to do next year is have a memorial type of remembrance of what Jesus did on the cross for us. Because that's what it should be.

 

Because there's the world's version of freedom which can end up in slavery to the world's system of consumerism, culturalism and other things. But rejoicing in the freeedom God gave us as christains is what Independance Day should be about. Not only that but what God has done for this country. Which not all the time but most of the time can be forgotten through dead tradition. The fireworks should remind us of God's grace. Thank you Lord , Amen.

 

 

AROUND SEPTEMBER 26 2012 WE CELEBRATION YOM KIPPUR...

 

Yom Kippur is the DAY OF ATONEMENT, that points to Jesus Christ being the high priest entering into the holy place where we couldn't.

I haven't updated this in a bit. But I know we have been really enjoying the Feasts. It is now March 27 , 2013 that I am updating this. And I have grown closer to God. AMEN. I know we have taken communion in our home, gave to God our home, time and abilities. Tithing and giving like his word says. We have since watched many wonderful movies about Jesus. Around this time  participating in this particular feast Yom Kippur. We played a game I made up called " THE PLATE GAME'. About biblical foods and feeding on God's word.

 

We made prayer lists and prayed around this time. We played GO_FISH FOR JESUS game. WE made our own paper crowns and decorated them. In taking communion we use unleavened bread to represent the sacrifice Jesus made for us. His body being bruised and beaten like the unleavened bread. As well as his body being pierced through  like the unleavened bread. And we broke bread and drank grape juice. Reading from the scripture . We thanked God and sang praise and worship songs to God. We also washed each others feet.

 

Then came SUKKOT October 1st.

Sukkot is a time to remember when God brought the Isrealites out of the wilderness into the promised land. During this time sukkuh's are built like shelters made out of wood and leaves. To remember how they lived before they entered the promise land. And also to remember God's promise of cursing and blessing in maintaining all of God's laws. We are commanded to praise God and rejoice for his blessings; and care of us.

Around this time my family read through Deuteronomy Ch 11 thru Ch. 31. about God's blessings and promises when we obey his voice.

And his cursing's when we do not. And that applies spiritually to hearing God's voice as a Christian today. We also watch good movies on Moses, took communion, and praised God.

 

In December we celebrated CHANUKKAH, which is the christian celebration of Hanukkah. But we celebrate it in remembrance of the little bit of oil the Isrealites had coming back into their own land again from captivity. To build upon God's laws for their people and to come into their own land again. So they celebrated with the little oil they had to light the menorah to commemorate God and their homeland again. In which if they hadn't been brought back into their own land again Jesus couldn't have preached and taught in their cities like he did, being born also in Bethlehem.

So we celebrated by reading stories about the Isrealites, playing games. Sonia played the dreidel and some got gifts. We watched some cartoons on Chanukkah.

We talked about God's word, had dinner and enjoyed the night. As well as took communion.

 

For PURIM 2013 this year  Febuary 24th.

 

Purim is a celebration of the redemption of God's people through the hand and faith of Esther. The Isrealites and all God's people remember

this day to remember the hand God played in the deliverance of his people.

 

On this day we watched a play called "ESTHER". prayed  and thanked God. And we also read the bible. Sonia also pledged her own purity

before the Lord as a young princess in God to love God first with all her heart , mind and soul. She received a purity girls pledge certificate, bracelet and new dress.

 

We are now still celebrating this March 27th PASSOVER which started yesterday. And have been really excited about the bible episodes on the discovery channel, the bible tv show game and have gone over learning materials for this passover. We have also taken communion so far.

So God bless you all... And we love you and Jesus loves you.

 

 

Over the SUMMER OF 2013 the Lord purposed Ethan to get a bike and out of obedience he did. And found joy in riding it.  My daughter's born again experience was August 27th 2012 of last year. As we baptized her at home upon the Lord's command. And passed this year. God's been doing so much I need to keep track of dates none the less we are ecstatic , glad, and happy he has brung many of his promises to past for us.

This year we found a messianic church the lord promised to bring us into fellowship with and revealed to me his purpose to bring us into this fellowship about 4 years ago. Amen!

 

 

 

ROSH HASHANAH  Sept. 5th-6th we celebrated this holiday the first time with our messianic brothers and sisters in  our church gathering  on Fridays. Each year we are growing and learning. Rosh Hashanah is referred to as the "wedding  Day", " The coming of our Lord Yeshua",  " Judgement Day". " The Day that The Book of Life is Opened" and "The Biblical New Year". It is a day to search the heart  and inner repentance. The time were God reviews and is said to open the book of life.  And it is  customary to say" May Your Name be Inscribed in the Book of Life".  We rejoiced by singing songs as a  evening  of relaxation processioned. The shofar was blown. A sermon about Rosh Hashana and discussions took place. As well as joyful meal of eating and drinking.

 

 

 

YOM KIPPUR  Sept. 14th .  The DAY OF ATONEMENT was a DAY TO AFFLICT OUR SOULS.  It is  a day of fasting and prayer. It is known as " The Day of The Sealing of The Fate of All Men". It is inner repentance, making right any wrongs we have done to others.  We sang songs of repentance and of praise to Elohim and Yeshua his son. And sang of the ushering in of his kingdom here on earth. The shofar was blown and communion was given about the blood and body of our Lord Yeshua.

 

At home we talked about God's people in the end times being like in the wilderness and God's promise to bring us into his future kingdom. Like Joshua did God's people in the bible.

 

 

   2014   

PURIM March 15th  thru March 16th. We celebrated with our church. It's a time of festivity and truth. Fun and thanksgiving. We read the story of Esther with festive thanksgiving and embrace of the story. We dress up and thanks God in remembrance of all that he has done for us.  It's a time to remember  that God will come swiftly to save us just like he did in the book of Esther. And avenge all our enemies. Which will be a time of sadness, rejoicing, humility and triumph!

HOLOCAUST REMEMBERANCE DAY April 27th . For this holiday God had to spring it on me because I was getting busy . So I had said I prayer for God 's people. He basically led us into following it this year. In which I really should have been prepared for better. But God lead Ethan to study the holocaust of the Indians (indigenous people of America) in which he has a page on our website now. I watched the movie on "Anne Frank" which was very good. About a jewish girl and what she experienced escaping the first half of the holocaust.

 

                                                       THINGS THAT HAPPENED THIS YEAR : 

 

THIS YEAR BEING SAVED VERY YOUNG I DIDN'T KNOW THE DAY AND MONTH I ACCEPTED JESUS INTO MY HEART. BUT THE LORD  REVEALED IT TO ME. I WAS SAVED FEBRUARY 11TH AT 8 YEARS OLD THAT DAY GOD TOLD ME I WAS OFFICIALLY AN ADULT SPIRITUALLY THIS 2014.

 

Rosh Hashanah " The Feast of Trumpets" this year we celebrated in our home. We started a little early on Wensday 9/24/14. It was very spiritually invigorating. Especially because we were together more this year on it. We recited the blessings and lit our candles. We had the table set for Rosh Hashanah and drank grape juice. Talking about foods that are symbolic for blessing.  Read the account of genesis and learned about how somewhere in there God created time. We also talked about the elements of god's creation and what they mean spiritually. Like god created the light but spiritually the light is Jesus. God created the physical water but Jesus offers us spiritual water where we will never thirst in him, his word. We also played a game I put together a name that christian song game and finish the line. But because we are all winners in Jesus we all got fun prize goods. We celebrated the new year in love our family cat was joyful. We jokingly said she's here to pay homage to God creating her! It was beautiful. The lord led me earlier that day to the store and i found Sonia some children's books on the bible festivals. We listened to the shofar and messages for Rosh Hashanah. And the lord blessed my daughter to attend a christian youth gathering for the kids on Friday on Rosh Hashanah. Where they shared a skit, fellowship and some music, as she got to share Christ with her friends.

 

Yom Kippur  "Day of Atonement" we celebrated in our home sunset Oct 3 -4 nightfall.  The day of atonement is a very special day ! It's a day where we experience our connection with God with just our being. A day where God chooses to not see, in that he forgets our sin . And we embrace him and he embraces us. But because we have Jesus we have an atonement for our sins and we praise God that we can come to him boldly because of him. But God also directs our lives and the events of it.  And this day the fate and state of our soul and lives are sealed. And hereby directed by the Father. And we are greatful to be apart of what God is doing by examining our ownselves. It is a day we ask God to cleanse us of all unrighteousness.    

 

  Ezekiel 36:26-28 reads:

 

     26 I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. 27 I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My judgments and do them. 28 Then you shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; you shall be My people, and I will be your God.

 

 

"Sukkot", "Feast of Tabernacles", is a day to celebrate, commemorate, be cheerful and thankful. It's a day we remember how God provided, cared for and sheltered the Isrealites in the wilderness. The tabernacle commemorates the fleshly tabernacle we live in now that is like a tabernacle flimsy and the hope for something more stable a new holy tabernacle in Christ. It's also a day to remember Jesus' sacrifice  and how we can now come boldly before the throne of God, thanking God for having communion with him.  We also thank God for our earthly dwelling , prayer closet, where we can come and worship him with who we are. Or we thank God for the places he gives us to allow us to come before him with are whole being.

 

 

CHANUKAH Our family spent Chanukah together " The Feast of Dedication". It is the dedication of our temple to God and a continued rededication of our temple to God. To continue with a single eye. And to continue to CHOOSE the things of LIGHT over the things OF the DARK. Because so many things tug at our heart such as manna, money, love , feeling of despairity from the devil but ultimately God wants to know if we are going to continue to dedicate our temple to him; and give HIM our heart.

 

               It is the celebration of the LIGHT over the DARK. It is the celebration of Jesus Christ in our lives and also a time to remember his provision in our lives. For instance,  the as we consider and remember the story of the woman with the little bit of oil and flour that lasted many days.

 

 1 Kings 17:15-16

 

15 And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he, and her house, did eat many days.16 And the barrel of meal wasted not, neither did the cruse of oil fail, according to the word of the Lord, which he spake by Elijah.

We also remember in the new testament "The Parable of The" TEN VIRGINS"". Which you can read for yourself in

 

 Matthew 25:1-13.

 

•   5 virgins who were wise chose to live in the LIGHT of Christ in his guidance, under his command, subject to him. We can reference the story of Mary and Martha in what mattered to Christ most

• The other 5 were foolish virgins. They loved Jesus but they loved the DARKness more and unrighteousness.

 

 

LAMP OF OUR MIND

 

LAMP OF OUR HEART

 

LAMP OF OUR SOUL

 

God  is not calling us to do secular things, things that the world does. God is calling us to sacred things. And in patience and waiting we are entering into his presence for all eternity. That takes humility, it doesn't take much understanding as it does obedience. Because when we obey we have the light of Christ with us.

      His mirth ( tranquility) silences all questions, his manna from heaven it is a gift of God. It's something one can only embrace in his presence. His mirth you can't produce it and you can't make it; because it already is.

       So today our vessels (temples) belong to you, your word, in brokenness and humility you guide us. Hallelujah! Amen!

 

 

      * one other note: the menorah has 8 branches and the one in the middle is the shamash. The shamash is the one that lights all the other candles on the menorah.  The shamash is Yeshua , he keeps our light lit.

 

   T 'B' SHEVUOT " The New Year of Trees" or " The Feast of Fruits and First-Fruits" . FEB. 4th, Jesus is the first fruit of those to be resurrected from  the dead and to overcome sin and death.  We thank God for the fruit of the ground and his provision. We thank God for what he did for us. We thank God for his fruits of the spirit and goodness. We thank God that just like a tree is dead in the winter just like we are dead to the world. We are not without hope and that life inside of us will spring forth anew with first fruits, buds and blossoms. Bearing good fruit and good seed. Fulfilling God's word to bear fruit ,multiply and fill the earth.  Be a witness for Christ, being fruitful in well-doing, well reported of as pleasing God not man, but in the sight of men that we may be a light and pillar of his truth.

              JOHN 15:11

 

These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.

 

 

Purim ( The Feast of Lots) ( Memorial Feast Story of Esther) March 4th-5th . On Purim at sundown we started with a festive blessing, it's a time to share and give gifts. Share in the celebration, it a time to be merry.

Well, first off God blessed us with a divine revelation, that the bible was missing some books. And that it was in no way complete, you have to wonder why there are only 66 books of the bible, not a Godly number of divine completion. 

 

I know it sounds ludicrous I would veer completely away from thinking such.

 But God had me in a place in my life where He felt the only other way He could clear up my  biblical confusion ,though completely trusting in him. Was to show me and reveal to me that the sanctity of the complete word of God could be found in the Ethiopian Biblical books. That he had preserved through their Judaic heritage. Whom now unlike most Jews in Isreal have accepted Yeshua as their Lord and Savior.

And they have the books that are talked about in the bible such as Jubilees, Enoch, and other writing that confirm the truth of them.

 

Back to Purim, well I liked the re-enactment Netanyahu gave speaking before congress like our biblical hero Esther.

 

Also, my daughter and I made Haman hats out of crescent rolls, and we made rolls that resemble challah which represents Eternal Life. Which is great to do with kids.

The word revealed to us for Purim this year. Is we all are looking forward to being chosen and crowned like Esther. And we are awaiting a feast and celebration just like that when our enemies God will destroy.

 

Philippians 3:13-15  (KJV)

 

13 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,

14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

15 Let us therefore, as many as be perfect, be thus minded: and if in any thing ye be otherwise minded, God shall reveal even this unto you.

 

 

PESACH 2015

 

(Pesach) means order,( Passover) and of course the death and resurrection of our Lord Yeshua celebrated April 3rd - 11th. I think it's important to celebrate Yeshua's walk and/or journey at which point he carried our sins to the cross , died and rose again for us.

Also to take from the biblical story of the Exodus of God's people who God bore in the wilderness to give them a good name and ensign to be lights amoung the darkness .

It also causes us to remember that Yeshua is our perfect sacrifice whole and undefiled fulfilling all the law.

Memorializing it by taking communion

It also reminds us the leaven that sin can create in our lives and reminds us to check our own lives of leaven. And get rid of the leaven in our lives.

 

All that the Isrealites have done teaches how sin corrupts so easily the hearts of those who drink in its madness.

 

And so this takes us to Baal worship and how it so easily deceived the people and is still deceiving people today.

As every form of it was to prosper agriculture, even calf worship.

From sacrifices of their children to Molech to orgies under every green tree.

To increase their storehouses of gain, instead of being grateful and trusting God.

Just like they grew tired of the manna and desired meat.

Let us not grow tired or weary.

 

And took more quail than was necessary for the day, not being grateful but greedy for gain after the which God granted their desire for meat.

 

Today it is the same, the 1%, abortion, blatant sexual immorality, the

Trade Pacific Partnership all giving their power and worship to material wealth and not spiritual wealth.

The storehouses of the rich grow bigger their greed has reached the heights of heaven as they destroy many.

A question for you today are we satisfied with the only true  and wholesome bread of heaven, is He enough?

The world doesn't seem to think so, but I tell you my brothers and sisters he is enough.

Will we be understanding and sure?

Will we lay our desires down?

God has a gift for you hold onto it !

 

Matthew 6:24

 

No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

 

Our eyes sees the things it wants, the way of the world and fleshly desires do they

 wish, our eyes are darkened if we only see this world, what it offers, only our

circumstances and not God, his ways, his promises and his kingdom ahead of us. Which should be the wholeness and singleness of our eyes.

 

Matthew 6:22,23

 22"The eye is the lamp of the body; so then if your eye is clear, your whole body will be full of light. 23"But if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light that is in you is darkness, how great is the darkness!

 FOOD OF THE SPIRIT

Before Rosh Hashanah 2015 at the beginning of the month is Rosh Chodesh meaning " head of the month". This month is Tishri /September which means civil and corporate gathering of all Isreal to the Lord and is the seventh month. Which is significant because it is the first month of the new year foreshadowing the new earth.  Speaks of  prophecy and the bible codes. This year is prophetic because there are things taking place spiritually. God gives us signs in the sun, moon and stars. Rosh Hashanah also meaning " Head of the Year" also " The Feast of  Ingathering". Also, known as the feast of trumpets calling us all to repentance before the sealing and mighty King of the whole world, God.

 

What's interesting is this month there are TWO blood moons with the second being the super blood moon. Earlier this month we had a partial eclipse of the moon and TWO solar eclipses of the sun.

God is speaking to us all there are things that are about to take place that have never happened in the history of the world. I can't express enough what the significance of the 2 blood moons and 2 suns signify.

 

So what are bible codes saying? They are saying that the return of the Messiah is near and there will be a turn of events.

God has been opening my eyes to how the stories all flow together and testify of him in the old testament.

God has now come to the precedent to lead the way for his soon coming.

God is dealing with his people Isreal, we will soon become one fold!
