Morning by Morning, October 3, 2024 - The Feast of Trumpets Fulfilled in Jesus Good morning, Lord Jesus. Arise in my heart and in every moment of my day. ... “Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, ‘Speak to the children of Israel, saying: ‘In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you shall have a sabbath-rest, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, a holy convocation. You shall do no customary work on it; and you shall offer an offering made by fire to the Lord’” (Leviticus 23:23-25). On the Biblical Calendar, we’ve entered into the Feast of Trumpets in these Ten Days of Awe between the Feast of Trumpets and the Day of Atonement (Leviticus 23:27). The sounding of the trumpets speaks of joy, leading into this ten-day time of reflection and repentance, introspection and intimately listening in sabbath-rest for correction and conviction before the Day of Atonement. And at the same, there is to be “an offering of fire made to the Lord.” Lord Jesus, You are the ultimate fulfillment of every feast, every prophesy, every law of the Old Covenant (Matthew 5:17). Everything written of the people of Israel throughout their journey is also intended to speak to us as prophetic examples of our relationship with You -- Father, Son, and Holy Spirit of God. As Your Word teaches us, “All these things happened to them as examples, and they were written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages have come” (1 Corinthians 10:11). On this day, during this time, sound the Trumpet of Your Voice in my spirit. Draw me near to You in deeper surrender, waiting in rest before You, listening for Your leading, embracing Your correction, and preparing my heart in trusting repentance in honor of all You have done for me. You are my Atonement -- “the Atoning Sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world” (1 John 2:2). You are “the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world” (John 1:29). So with the Fire of Your Spirit burning in my heart, let the Sound of Your Voice arise like a Trumpet in my spirit. Your sheep hear Your Voice (John 10:27). Your children are led by Your Spirit (Romans 8:14). And we find our sabbath-rest in You alone (Hebrews 4:9). Lord, let it be so in me -- this day, through these ten Days of Awe, and throughout the days You’ve set before me on my journey with You. And I look forward to the day “the last trumpet” will sound! (1 Corinthians 15:52) In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
