Feast of trumpets

[visionary]

Feast of Trumpets is the First day of the seventh month and start of the civil year. Leviticus 23.23-25. Hebrew name is Rosh HaShanah which literally means head of the year on the Jewish Calendar it falls around September or October depending on the year. It is Tishri 1 of the Jewish month and first day of the year on the Jewish civil calendar. The Jews have two calendars, one which they call the sacred calendar and the other that they call the civil. They believe that since God never abrogated the old calendar when He gave them the new calendar they are to have two calendars.

This is why Joel says that Christ will come in the first month, both for the first coming and for the second, both in the spring and in the fall. Interesting that you find seven trumpets in Revelation and not many people have made any connection with the Feast of Trumpets. It would take understanding of the Feast of Trumpets throughout scripture and prophecy of Old and New Testament prophets to glean concepts and understand the significance of the Feast of Trumpets. The Feast of Trumpets is about remembrances, a memorial, but the Bible does not tell us what we are supposed to remember! Neither the name of the festival or the meaning of the festival is made explicitly clear in the Bible. The symbolism of this festival is something of a mystery, a sort of Bible riddle begging to be solved. The Bible grants us only two sparse verses to explain the festival:

Leviticus 23:23, 24. In the seventh month, on first day of the month, it will be for you a Sabbath, a trumpet blast memorial, a sacred assembly. All regular work you shall not do, and you shall cause to be brought near to the LORD an offering made by fire.
This memorial is yet to have an event to memorialize it. We have yet to fulfill this event. By faith we are to keep it. By faith, we are to understand it. So let us begin with the offering made by fire. To be tried in the fires, the cleansing spoken of, is to have a purification effect which will be total and complete just as it is in Yeshua. We are the offering, the sacrificing of our sins in the flesh, that we may live the spiritual life with Yeshua. The sacred assembly will be those who are looking forward to the fulfillment of the Feasts of Trumpets.

To start the Feast of Trumpets you must have two witnesses spot the new moon. The role of the two witnesses is to announce that the fall feasts are about to start with the Feast of Trumpets. Now the two trumpets of silver can be paralleled to the two witnesses who are calling people to the last call of redemption. The two witnesses will call for the in-gathering of the believers and for the journeying that will need to be done spiritually to be in the place in the wilderness, where God can again speak to us as it was at Mount Sinai.

Now there will be the time when the book in Revelation 10 is opened and it tastes sweet, but when the full impact of what this means, to the wicked and those in rebellion to the Word of God will cause the stomach to churn.

When the two witnesses come, they will come in the power from on High. Please note that once the book of Revelation 10 is opened read, digested, there is the command to prophesy again. The two witnesses then appear in Revelation 11 to deal with the increased pressure of the beast upon the people. They will be able to command plagues like Moses and conviction will be with their words, for Yeshua will be with them like a voice out of the cloud.

The clouded mind that each and every one of us has is confusion on one point or another, lost and not knowing where to turn will be cleared by the messages of the two witnesses of Revelation. It will ring true and will be like the voice of God to our hearts and minds. It will bring us convictions, repentance, and salvation in the mysteries of God that have for so long been covered by traditions and our own sinful lives.

The two witnesses will cause the mystery of God to be finished. The hidden things of God will no longer be hidden; the truth will shine in all its glory. The two witnesses' message and the son of perdition that appears to confuse the masses bring about tribulation such as never before witnessed upon the earth. Tribulation and turmoil in the mind over conflicts of information means that there is still controversies over truth battling for your soul. As tribulation is in everyone' mind, so also will the outwards signs of turmoil be among the people, as the rulers look to control the masses, and leaders look to lead the crowd.

 

[visionary]

Everyone will be taking a position, everyone holding and protesting even if it takes forcing their beliefs or position upon others until there is nothing left to be said because everyone is willing to die for the position they will then hold. The entire world will then be judged accordingly, and the plaques will fall afflicting each and everyone justly in righteous judgement.

In that three and one half time period, during this turmoil, those who are witnessing for Christ will find it getting extremely difficult to the point that they will wear out. They will be exhausted from warning and wooing on the hardness of the hearts of men to change while there is still an opportunity. I believe we are soon to enter into this time period.

 

[visionary]

During the Feast of Trumpets, you will have watchmen who will give out the trumpet warning, the heralding of the news, and the announcements of what is soon to come to pass. These watchmen on the wall of Zion are the two witnesses of Revelation.

So it will be when the two witnesses, in Revelation, prophesy to the world, they will open the eyes of the world as to what is going on in God's world. They will also show what is going on and going to happen in our world as we near the end of earth's history.

This ram's horn that was blown on the tenth day of the seventh month was also blown during a jubilee year. Jubilee points to the future perfect freedom. This Jubilee coming up will be the Jubilee of Jubilees or better known as the Millennium.

The Bible commands us to blow the trumpets on the Feast of Trumpets as a memorial, ten days to remember but what? It does not tell us why the trumpets need to be blown. Nothing, no explanation, no meanings divulged or even hinted at. Various attempts have been made to explain the festival. By searching through the Scriptures for references to trumpets blasts we find they were used for a variety of purposes.

Each purpose gives us a different reason to remember and highlights a unique aspect of the festival. Each remembrance is a key facet to this feast.

- One of the first things would be for us to remember our sins and repent. God wants the people who seek after him daily and are delighted to know the way that God wants them to live and the way that things should be. These people who are willing to approach Him for all the truth will not forsake anything that is of God. They have found delight, truth, righteousness, justification, and sanctification in all of God‘s ordained ministries and services. It is our delight to seek God daily and know His ways, and do His ways as they are His righteousness and not turn our back on His Laws, for we know it is the sanctified way of approaching God.

- There is also the aspect of the coming of the Day of Atonement and the need for repentance. Feast of Trumpets marks the beginning of a ten day countdown to the Day of Atonement. Because the Day of Atonement is judgment day, the trumpet is sounded as a reminder that judgment is very near and the time for repentance is short. Our God is gracious and merciful, full of forgiveness, very slow to anger, even repents Himself of the justice the sinner deserves if they would just tear open their heart and start a new life in Him.

Many have heard Joel 2:13 over and over again, but this time read it with the understanding the kingdom of heaven is truly at hand. We are at the door of eternity. We are soon to be at the end of this earth's history. We are soon to see Yeshua come in the clouds of glory with the entire Heavenly Host with Him.

Have you learned what Yeshua meant by learning the difference between mercy and sacrifice. Many have sacrificed their whole lives, living the cloistered life, the celibate life, and did all these works in the name of their religion but have never come to Yeshua, though they call out His name often. They sing His name, they pray His name, and they worship any image they have of what they think he looks like. They do not live the repentant life where in they are under the sanctifying influence of the Holy Spirit, and will follow Yeshua whereever He leads, even if it is away from what they thought was truth. The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

This is why studying the Bible to see if it is so, and praying for godly direction for the believer to walk in is so important in your relationship with God and men.

Matthew 9:13 But go you and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

In Temple times, the priesthood sounded three trumpet blasts every morning to announce the opening of the Temple gates. So too, it is believed, that the first trumpet blasts of the Feast of Trumpets announce the opening of the gates of Heaven.

This is traditional Feast of Trumpets image is fully employed in

Revelation 4:1. After this I looked, and, behold a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up hither, and I will show thee things which must be hereafter.

In this tradition, the gates of Heaven are opened to receive our prayers of repentance and remain open until the conclusion of the Day of Atonement. This will be our opportunity to be shown the things which must be hereafter, the soon to come to pass in the last hours of earth's history. Those things that we need to know and understand to be able to stand in the last days. The Day of Atonement service is concluded with one long trumpet blast which announces that the gates of heaven have closed and judgement is complete.

Therefore, the sound of the trumpet on Feast of Trumpets is a remembrance of the need to repent before judgement is made. Since the two witnesses are preaching repentance, it would not be surprising if the two witnesses start in Jerusalem.

 

[visionary]

True repentance, deep thorough and sincere will bring a gift from God. It is one of the prized gifts that a believer can receive and it is the gift of the Holy Spirit, so necessary in its fulness in the last days of earth's history. Keep on repenting until the Lord blesses you with this gift.

It will be worth it, for it will such a refreshing experience after living in this sinful world, to have a taste of heaven, to experience Holiness, to eat of the Hidden manna, and there is no sin worth keeping in comparison to the blessings provided if you would just give up those favorite sins.

Repent you therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord.

Really good teaching

Trumpets were also used for Coronation Ceremonies. In the Scriptures, the trumpet is sounded at the coronation of a king. The trumpet announces the newly crowned King and proclaims his ascent to sovereignty. It is well illustrated in the coronation contest for David's throne. So it wouldn't surprise me that this is when the Yeshua is crowned in Heaven as our King.

Zadok the priest took the horn of oil from the sacred tent and anointed Solomon. Then they sounded the trumpet and all the people shouted, "Long live King Solomon!" Only the King of Kings can take The Book out of the Hand of God. As one of the elders told John the Revelator, the Lion out of the tribe of Judah, and the root of David, has prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof. He came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne.

So the coronation of the King of the Universe, our Lord Yeshua could occur during the Feast of Trumpets and on the Day of Atonement He is handed all dominions. The last message pure and swift riding and striking the heart with arrows of convictions dead on the mark by the one who has been given the crown.

According to ancient Jewish tradition, the first day of the seventh month is the yearly anniversary of God's completion of creation. As such, it is also the New Year's Day of the Biblical Calendar. This New Year's Day aspect is reflected in the festival's common Hebrew name: Rosh Hashanah. The first day of the seventh month marks and remembers the anniversary of the completion of creation as well as the day that Yeshua becomes King over the new creation in us. Yeshua never denied that He is the King of the Jews or the Universe.

Therefore, the sound of the trumpet on the Feast of Trumpets is a remembrance of the coronation of the King of the Universe, and it symbolizes our acceptance of God as King. As with any Kingdom, the law of the land is pronounced and proclaimed throughout the kingdom and to all the citizens. The day will come when God will reveal His Kingdom and its laws by which all nations on earth will be judged. It will be a hard day for those who have rebelled against God‘s Law, but it will be a day of rejoicing for those who have believed in God and in His Kingdom coming.

It was at Mount Sinai when God descended upon the mount in Exodus 19, that there was a heavenly trumpet sounding loud and long. The sound of the trumpet at Sinai was one of the miraculous signs that accompanied the giving of the Ten Commandments and the invitation to covenant with God.

Therefore, the sound of the trumpet on Feast of Trumpets is a remembrance of that day at Mount Sinai when Israel accepted her covenant with God. Later when Joshua came to the Promised Land, it was lead by the priests carrying the Ark of the Covenant with seven trumpets blowing.

Trumpets were used to give warnings. In ancient Israel, a watchman blew a trumpet to sound an alarm when danger was approaching; just the way civil defense sirens are used in our modern world for natural disasters like tornadoes approaching and invasions.

When the Israelite heard the sound of the trumpet, he knew to take note of some imminent danger. Ezekiel employs this image by comparing the words of the prophets to the sound of the trumpet warning. These warning in the form of trumpets from God are not to be trifled with. It will be on your own head for not taking warning seriously.

If a person heard the words of the prophet but did not take warning from them, it will be his own fault when the trouble comes. The sound of the trumpet on Feast of Trumpets is a remembrance of the need to take warning from the words of the prophets.

The Feast of Trumpets is usually now observed on not one but on two consecutive days. The (Jewish) day begins at sundown and ends just before sundown the next day. Similarly, the months were calculated from the New Moon. The only Feast of Trumpets is the only feast that is set apart based the time of the new moon. Since Feast of Trumpets is the only appointed feast that begins on the first day of the month that makes it easy to know. As we are trying to narrow the field as to when is the soon return of Yeshua, it is important to remember what Yeshua said,

No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.

The next verse tells us He is speaking about the day of His coming. No one knew for sure whether the New Moon (the first day of the new month) would fall at the end of the 30th day or the 31st day. They had to wait until they saw the moon's crescent. We know that the Lord's coming will be signaled by a trumpet blast, the sound of a ram's horn. In the same way, the sound of the ram's horn ushers in the Feast of Trumpets. This is why this festival is celebrated for two days because of the uncertainty of the correct calendar day. Each new month was solemnly proclaimed to begin by the priests only after two witnesses testified to the appearance of the crescent of the moon.

The trumpet was blown as a battle cry during sieges and assaults. When the soldiers heard the trumpet, they knew to initiate the attack. The prophets invoke the battle cry of the trumpet as they repeatedly warn of the impending destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple. One of the most famous was the fall of the wall at Jericho and the seven trumpets soundings. The Wall did not come down til the seven day and it was a great and loud trumpet sound that day. The final blast brought the wall down.

 

[visionary]

There is to be another time that the trumpet will sound and it is coming upon us here in the near future. Disaster following disaster, until the whole world will lie in ruins, all human shelters will be gone. Wars and rumors of wars will keep it from ever being peace anywhere in the world. The sealing of destiny are illustrated and announced with trumpets.

There were trumpets that were made out of the horn of a ram. The most famous ram in the Bible is the ram of Genesis 22 which was sacrificed in Isaac's place. These that were sealed under the fifth seal, and told to wait for their brethren, could easily be waiting for holy city tread under foot forty and two months.

Remember we are in the middle of a war here and the dragon, old satan himself knows his time is short and will go after those who believe and live what they believe. These people are not an organization but individuals who keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Yeshua.

Watchmen are people who stood on the wall and are guarding the truth, the people from danger. They speak up and it is called blowing a trumpet to sound an alarm when danger was approaching a city. When the city inhabitants heard the sound of the trumpet, they were frightened of what unknown danger might be about to befall them. Amos employs this image of the fear inspired by the trumpet blast when he says, ―If a trumpet is blown in a city, will not the people tremble?

The danger which approaches on Feast of Trumpets is God himself as he readies the heavenly court for judgement. In Jewish observance, the intervening days between the Feast of Trumpets and the Day of Atonement are called the "Awesome Days."

On the Day of Atonement, there will be the coming of the Lord to His temple, your mind. The second coming, and the coming of the Lord to His temple, is distinct and separate events. The Day of Atonement is the coming to His temple and the Feast of Tabernacles is the second coming. The coming of the Lord to His temple, Malachi foretells as the judgment. Before the Lord comes to the temple, he will send ―my messenger to prepare the way just as John the Baptist prepared the way with a call to repentance before Yeshua began His ministry.

Malachi with these words prophetically pointed out that this coming will be harder to abide by for some. It will be for the believers, the messenger of the covenant that they have waited for:

Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me:and the LORD, whom you seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom you delight in: behold, he shall come, said the LORD of hosts. But who may abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a refiner's fire, and like fullers' soap: And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: and he shall purify, and purge them as gold and silver, that they may offer unto the LORD an offering in righteousness. Then shall the offering be pleasant unto the LORD, as in the days of old, and as in former years. And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against false swearers, and against those that oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger from his right, and fear not me, said the LORD of hosts. For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore you sons of Jacob are not consumed. Even from the days of your fathers you are gone away from mine ordinances, and have not kept them. Return unto me, and I will return unto you, said the LORD of hosts.

They are to be days of intense soul searching and repentance and even fear as we prepare to enter the presence of the judge of all creation. Amos reminds us to fear the judgement of God as we would tremble at the sound of the watchman's trumpet

 

[visionary]

Therefore, the sound of the trumpet on Feast of Trumpets is a remembrance to fear God. As Zephaniah says it will be a day of wrath, darkness, gloom and alarm. Because the Feast of Trumpets is the New Year's Day (that is the anniversary of the completion of creation) it is also towards the end of the heavenly fiscal year. As at the end of our calendar year, New Years Day is the day when the ledgers must be settled.

On the Feast of Trumpets, the books of judgement are opened and all the deeds of each person are reviewed by the heavenly court for judgement. Ten days later, on Day of Atonement, everyone's name will be written and sealed for final judgement in either the Book of Life or Book of Dead.

This imagery is reflected in Revelation where John sees the ultimate and final Day of Judgment which will be after the one thousand years. On the Day of Judgment, Day of Atonement, the righteous are written in the Book of Life. The wicked are written in the Book of Death. The intervening days between Feast of Trumpets and Day of Atonement are traditionally regarded as prime-time to sway the heavenly court's decision through serious prayer, repentance and acts of charity.

Therefore, the sound of the trumpet on the Feast of Trumpets is a remembrance of Judgement at the hands of heaven. One of the most famous trumpet reference out of all the prophets is and it will be on that day when a great trumpet will be blown, the perishing in the land will come, and they will worship before the LORD on the Holy Mountain in Jerusalem.

This verse is a prophecy of the great Ingathering from all over is to commence with the believers gathering together for the anticipated return of Christ.

But you are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels, to the general assembly and church of the first born, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect

. Because on the Day of Atonement is the day when sins are blotted out of the Books of Life. By this time, hopefully you are the temple of God through which the Holy Spirit operates and the image of God is once again indwelling in humans. It will be the time of restitution of all things back to God promised since the world began.

 

[visionary]

Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God has spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began.

It will be a glorious experience for the believers, than that which has ever been experienced before. The Day of Atonement is the 21st day of the seventh month of God's calendar and as God said don't worry about it;..,

The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the former, said the LORD of hosts: and in this place will I give peace, said the LORD of hosts.

He was speaking of Solomon's Temple where there was a manifest presence of God in the former house. He is also speaking of the latter house being more glorious. We are to be the latter house which His Holy Spirit works

....at perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ. It is for the maturing of the saints. Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ.

Sound the great trumpet for our freedom; lift up a banner to gather us together from the four corners of the earth. Blessed are you, LORD, who gathers in the exiled of his people. The banner under which we are all to gather is the God given banner. So let us be patient waiting for the precious fruit of the Holy Spirit working in us. Let us be patient until we receive the early and latter rain. It is in our overcoming that we gain.

 

[visionary]

Therefore, the sound of the trumpet on Feast of Trumpets is a remembrance of the ultimate ingathering in the seventh month of God's calendar. Remember Ephesians chapter 4 where it says this will not happen till we come together as a perfect man. Who do you suppose that one man is in type? They came together in type in the seventh month as one man and they began to build. Seventh month is when the Feast of Trumpets begins to sound. Another reason given for the blowing of the trumpet on the Feast of Trumpets is for to remember the resurrection of the dead. Understand the words of Isaiah 18:3 to be a prophecy directed to the dead.

"As a banner is lifted on the mountains, you will see, and as a trumpet is sounded, you will hear."

This was understood to mean that when the final trumpet will be blown, the dead would rise and see and hear again. One of the soon to come to pass events that we need to remember. The coming of Yeshua includes a great trumpet blast which wakes up those sleeping in the dust.

In his letter to the believers at Colossians, Paul states that all of the Biblical Festivals are

"shadows of things to come, the substance of Christ."

From the above list, it is obvious that the fall feasts are about the things to come. The list of remembrances reads like a synopsis of Jewish and Christian apocalyptic expectations in their proper order. The warning of impending judgment, the call to repentance, the fear of the Day of the LORD, the Ingathering of Israel, the rebuilding of the Temple, the final judgment, the resurrection of the dead and the coronation of the King are all familiar prophetic themes which both Jewish and Christian communities associate with the coming of Christ. It is clear that the Festival is ripe with end-times implications. In view of Paul's statement that the festivals are "shadows of things to come," and in view of the ways in which the Spring Festivals of Unleavened Bread and Pentecost received a Messianic fulfillment within the events of the first coming of the Christ, Yeshua, one can hardly be surprised to find that the Fall Festivals speak to Christ's return.

Yeshua himself invokes Feast of Trumpets imagery when he says,

They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky with power and great glory. And He will send forth His angels with a great trumpet and they will gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of the sky to the other.

I lean more towards the seventh trumpet sounding long and hard throughout the last days from the Feast of Trumpets, through the Day of Atonement, and on through the Feast of Tabernacles right up to the eighth day.

 

[visionary]

The mystery of God as declared by the Prophets will be finished at the seventh trumpet.

And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to heaven, And sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer: But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he has declared to his servants the prophets.

The Feast of Trumpets is a remembrance of things yet to come. Revelation trumpets are a foretaste of the things to come in full blast when there is no more repentence. It is a memorial of things that have not happened yet. Only with God can something be remembered before it has occurred! The Feast of Trumpets remembers the future work of Christ. Perhaps it is the obscurity of the future which accounts for the Bible's silence regarding the festival's meaning. The Feast of Trumpets's final fulfillments is still shrouded in the future. If so, then the sound of the trumpet on Feast of Trumpets reminds us to listen for the sound of the trumpet in Revelation.

Study the trumpets because
1. It is a new year, a new event, a new understanding, a new message, and a new beginning.
2. Revelation talks about the seven trumpets as events that are to shake people of this world up and try getting them to see differently enough to understand the need to repent.
3. The Feast of Trumpets is designed for a purpose...preparing the people for the Day of Atonement.

So many people are spiritually asleep.
Awake sleeper!

Watch you therefore: for you know not when the master of the house cometh, at even or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning: Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping, and what I day unto you I say unto all, watch.

So what are we to wake up for

when you shall see these things come to pass, know that it is nigh, even at the doors. Verily I say unto you that, this generation shall not pass, till these entire things happen.

What are we to understand?

When you shall see the abomination of Desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not..."

 

[visionary]

There is a old Jewish tradition that when a son wishing to marry, he must build the home to the specifications of the father, before he can marry. When the son is asked about when he will marry he would say, "only the father knows". That is Yeshua's answer as to the time when He will come for His bride.

 

[visionary]

Rosh Hashanah is the marriage feast. And consumation is Yom Kippur.

As Yeshua said

"Blessed are those servants, whom the Lord when he cometh shall find watching" verily I say unto you, that he shall gird himself, and make them to sit down to meat, and will come forth and serve them. And if he shall come in the second watch, or come in the third watch, and find them so, blessed are those servants."

This is a special time when the Lord is dishing out meat, the big juicy stuff that would take mature believers to swallow. We have yet to see

"the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth understand) then let them that are in Judea flee to the mountains."

Daniel, himself, wanted to know but the Lord told him that the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end. John the Revelator did see that time when the book is opened and it was sweet as honey and as soon as it was eaten bitter to the belly.

This occurs in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he has declared to his servants the prophets. When the high priest stood before God on the Day of Atonement, he was said to be "face to face" with God. Because of this, the Day of Atonement became known by the phrase "face to face." "Face to face" is a terminology used in:
For we know in part; and we prophesy in part. But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away. When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
You may have heard this before but, this clear sounding trumpet blows and you will hear it from your Heavenly Father. You are now going to know exactly how defeated the devil is and how you will rise up and Jericho will fall all in one day. When is that day? In Revelation 4, John never left the earth but the Bible said he heard a truth and it was a voice speaking to him. You know what that voice said?

Come up hither.

He never left the earth. He left in spirit and came up and went higher until he saw a throne and one seated on that throne. That is the revelation we must see. We must see Yeshua on the throne high and lifted up. It has to do with coming into the marriage, Day of Atonement.

The Feast of Trumpets happens on the "new moon", which is 29.5 days after the last one, meaning it might occur on the 29th or 30th day, nobody knows for sure. "Of that day or hour no man knows" is an expression referring to this feast.

 

[visionary]

There are seven days of awe in between the Feast of Trumpets and the Day of Atonement. These picture the seven years of tribulation. Atonement pictures Satan being defeated and cast away at the end of tribulaion. If you add the two day Trumpets feast, and the day of atonement, the 7 days of awe are "ten days of tribulation" which might be referred to in Rev. 2:10.

In the Jewish Wedding, a marriage takes place over a period of time known as the "bridal week". During the bridal week, the groom and bride have intimate relations in the bridal chamber. At the end of the week, there is a marriage supper.
