The Appointed Times of /
/
/YHWH (commonly pronounced as “Yahuwah/Yahuah/Yehovah/Yahuweh/Yahweh”) include Sabbath, and Seven Feasts of
, such as Pesach/Passover, the Feast of Ha Matzot/Unleavened Bread, the Feast of Bikkurim/First Fruits, the Feast of Shavuot/Pentecost/the Feast of Weeks, Yom Teruah/The Day of Trumpets, Yom Kippur/The Day of Atonement and Sukkot/the Feast of Tabernacles.
All these Qodesh/Holy Feasts are observed from sundown to sundown, for our Creator’s Day starts from evening to morning as it is written in Genesis 1. I believe that all the Feasts of are pointed to the Messiah

/
(Yahushua/Y’shua/ Yeshua/Jesus). Please check Leviticus 23:1-44 for details. The following explanations are my understandings of the Feasts of
Elohim fulfillment in Messiah
:
- Passover (Pesach)
Messiah, our Passover Lamb, the Sinless Lamb, was crucified for us, shedding his precious blood for atoning for our sins.
- The Feast of Unleavened Bread (Chag HaMatzot)
Messiah was buried on the Feast of Unleavened Bread. His sinless body did not decay. He is the unleavened bread from the shamayim/heavens, the bread of life.
- The Feast of First Fruits (Bikkurim)
Messiah was resurrected on the Feast of First Fruits. He has risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept. He is the Firstfruits of the resurrection from the dead, and ascension to the shamayim, sitting at the right hand of the Father on high.
- The Feast of Weeks (Shavuot/Pentecost) The Law of Elohim was given on that day to the people of Elohim in the Old Covenant. In the New Covenant, the Holy Spirit/Ruach ha’Qodesh first descended on men on this day as is written in the Book of Acts. The Ruach ha’Qodesh has been given as a gift for those who have repented and have been baptized. (Acts 2:38) And the Law of Elohim is written into men’s hearts and minds.
- The Feast of Trumpets (Yom Teruah) This is a day of warning, alarming the coming judgments, the Day of
and the Day of Messiah
’s return, calling for the true repentance of the people of Elohim. Messiah
had been preaching this message ever since he was walking on the earth. Nowadays, through the Holy Spirit/Ruach ha’Qodesh given to the disciples of
the Messiah, this message of repentance is still being preached.
- The Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur) This is a Day of commanded fasting, the day of the High priest making atonement for our sins. Our High Priest is Messiah
who has atoned for our sins once and for all, sitting at the right hand of Elohim. He is our High Priest Forever. We celebrate
the Messiah has atoned our sins, the sins of the world once and for all! HalleluYah!
- The Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot). This is a 7-Day Feast, which is followed by another high day – the eighth day called the Last Great Day. This Feast celebrates
Elohim’s tabernacle among men in the Old Testament era. For Messiah
’s disciples/believers/followers who have the Ruach ha’Qodesh within, we celebrate Elohim’s indwelling in us,
Messiah in us, choosing our body as His tabernacle, His Temple to dwell. This is the first fulfillment. The second fulfillment will be when
Messiah return. We will be united with Elohim and Messiah
and will be with Him forever! HalleluYah! What a blessed hope that is!
Why do I celebrate these Appointed Feasts of ?
- These are the Qodesh Feasts of
our Elohim and we are commanded to keep His Sabbath and His Feasts to remember His everlasting love to His people Israel, and His supreme power and deliverance of Israel from death and the land of bondage.
Sabbath is one of the Ten Commandments of Elohim and which is from Friday sundown to Saturday sundown. It is written in Exodus 20:8-11, Leviticus 23:3, and Hebrews 4:9-12.
In the New Testament/Covenant, there were so many writings about how disciples of Messiah observed Sabbath/Shabbat and the appointed Times of
. I realize that I need to keep Elohim’s Sabbath and the appointed times including the 7 appointed Feasts and New Moon. I also believe that all the Feasts of Elohim are all pointed to
the Messiah.
“Remember the Shabbath Day, to qadosh it. Six days you labour, and shall do all your work, but the seventh day is a Shabbath of your Elohim. You do not do any work – you, nor your son nor your daughter, or your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates. For in six days made the shamayim and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore
barak the Shabbath day and qadosh it.” (Shemoth/Exodus 20:8-11, Halleluyah Scriptures, HS)
“So there remains a Sabbath-keeping for the people of Elohim. For the one, having entered into His rest, has himself also rested from his works, as Elohim rested from His own. Let us, therefore, do our utmost to enter into that rest, lest anyone fall after the same example of disobedience.” (Hebrews 4:9-12, The Scriptures, ISR)
“And spoke to Mosheh, saying, “Speak to the children of Yisrael, and say to them, ‘The Appointed Times of
, which you are to proclaim as qodesh gatherings, My Appointed Times, are these:
‘Six days work is done, but the seventh day is a Shabbath of rest, a qodesh gathering. You do no work, it is a Shabbath to in all your dwellings. These are the Appointed Times of
, qodesh gatherings which you are to proclaim at their Appointed Times. In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, between the evenings, is the Pesah to
. And on the fifteenth day of this month is the Festival of Matstsoth to
– seven days you eat unleavened bread. On the first day you have a qodesh gathering, you do no servile work. And you shall bring an offering made by fire to
for seven days. On the seventh day is a qodesh gathering, you do no servile work.'” And
spoke to Mosheh, saying, “Speak to the children of Yisrael, and you shall say to them: ‘When you come into the land which I give you, and shall reap its harvest, then you shall bring a sheaf of the first-fruits of your harvest to the kohen. And he shall wave the sheaf before
, for your acceptance. on the morrow after the Shabbath the kohen waves it. And on that day when you wave the sheaf, you shall prepare a male lamb a year old, a perfect one, as a burnt offering to
, and its grain offering: two-tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with oil, an offering made by fire to
, a sweet fragrance, and its drink offering:one-fourth of a hin of wine. And you do not eat bread or roasted grain or fresh grain until the same day that you have brought an offering to your Elohim – a Law forever throughout your generations in all your dwellings.” (Wayyiqra/Leviticus 23:1-14, Halleluyah Scriptures, HS)
“And from the morrow after the Shabbath, from the day that you brought the sheaf of the wave offering, you shall count for yourselves: seven completed Shabbathoth. Until the morrow after the seventh Shabbath you count fifty days, then you shall bring a new grain offering to . Bring from your dwellings for a wave offering two of bread, of two-tenth parts of fine flour they are, baked with leaven, first-fruits to
. And besides the bread, you shall bring seven lambs a year old, perfect ones, and one young bull and two rams. They are a burnt offering to
, with their grain offering and their drink offerings, an offering made by fire for a sweet fragrance to
. And you shall offer one male goat as a sin offering, and two male lambs a year old, as a peace offering. And the kohen shall wave them, besides the bread of the first-fruits, as a wave offering before
, besides the two lambs. They are qodesh to
for the kohen. And on the same day you shall proclaim a qodesh gathering for yourselves, you do no servile work on it – a Law forever in all your dwellings throughout your generations. And when you reap the harvest of your land, do not completely reap the corners of your field when you reap, and do not gather any gleaning from your harvest. Leave them for the poor and for the stranger. I am
your Elohim.’” (Wayyiqra/Leviticus 23:15-22, Halleluyah Scriptures, HS)
“And spoke to Mosheh, saying, “Speak to the children of Yisrael, saying, ‘In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you have a rest, a remembrance of blowing of trumpets, a qodesh gathering. You do no servile work, and you shall bring an offering made by fire to
.’” (Wayyiqra/Leviticus 23:23-25, Halleluyah Scriptures, HS)
“And spoke to Mosheh, saying, “On the tenth day of this seventh month is Yom ha’Kippurim. It shall be a qodesh gathering for you. And you shall afflict your beings, and shall bring an offering made by fire to
. And you do no work on that same day, for it is a Yom Kippurim, to make atonement for you before
your Elohim. For any being who is not afflicted on that same day, he shall be cut off from his people. And any being who does any work on that same day, that being I shall destroy from the midst of his people. You do no work – a Law forever throughout your generations in all your dwellings. It is a Shabbath of rest to you, and you shall afflict your beings. On the ninth day of the month at evening, from evening to evening, you observe your Shabbath.” (Wayyiqra/Leviticus 23:26-32, Halleluyah Scriptures, HS)
“And spoke to Mosheh, saying, “Speak to the children of Yisrael, saying, ‘On the fifteenth day of this seventh month is the Festival of Sukkoth for seven days to
. On the first day is a qodesh gathering, you do no servile work. For seven days you bring an offering made by fire to
. On the eighth day there shall be a qodesh gathering for you, and you shall bring an offering made by fire to
. It is a closing Festival, you do no servile work.” (Wayyiqra/Leviticus 23:33-36, Halleluyah Scriptures, HS)
‘These are the Appointed Times of which you proclaim as qodesh gatherings, to bring an offering made by fire to
, a burnt offering and a grain offering, a slaughtering and drink offering, as commanded for every day – besides the Shabbathoth of
and besides your gifts, and besides all your vows, and besides all your voluntary offerings which you give to
.On the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when you gather in the fruit of the land, celebrate the Festival of
for seven days. On the first day is a rest, and on the eighth day a rest. And you shall take for yourselves on the first day the fruit of good trees, branches of palm trees, twigs of leafy trees, and willows of the stream, and shall rejoice before
your Elohim for seven days. And you shall celebrate it as a Festival to
for seven days in the year – a Law forever in your generations. Celebrate it in the seventh month. Dwell in booths for seven days; all who are native Yisraelites dwell in booths, so that your generations know that I made the children of Yisrael dwell in booths when I brought them out of the land of Mitsrayim. I am
your Elohim.'” Thus did Mosheh speak of the Appointed Times of
to the children of Yisrael.” (Wayyiqra/Leviticus 23:37-44, Halleluyah Scriptures, HS)
“And spoke to Mosheh and to Aharon in the land of Mitsrayim, saying, “This month is the beginning of months for you, it is the first month of the year for you. Speak to all the congregation of Yisrael, saying, ‘On the tenth day of this month each one of them is to take for himself a lamb, according to the house of his father, a lamb for a household. And if the household is too small for the lamb, let him and his neighbor next to his house take it according to the number of the beings, according to each man’s need you make your count for the lamb. Let the lamb be a perfect one, a year old male. Take it from the sheep or from the goats. And you shall keep it until the fourteenth day of the same month. Then all the assembly of the congregation of Yisrael shall kill it between the evenings. And they shall take some of the blood and put it on the two doorposts and on the lintel of the houses where they eat it. And they shall eat the flesh on that night, roasted in fire, with unleavened bread and with bitter herbs they shall eat it. Do not eat it raw, nor boiled at all with water, but roasted in fire—its head with its legs and its inward parts. And do not leave of it until morning, and what remains of it until morning you are to burn with fire. And this is how you eat it: your loins girded, your sandals on your feet, and your staff in your hand. And you shall eat it in haste. It is the Pesah of
. And I shall pass through the land of Mitsrayim on that night, and shall smite all the first-born in the land of Mitsrayim, both man and beast. And on all the mighty ones of Mitsrayim I shall execute judgement. I am
. And the blood shall be a sign for you on the houses where you are. And when I see the blood, I shall pass over you, and let the plague not come on you to destroy you when I strike the land of Mitsrayim. And this day shall become to you a remembrance. And you shall observe it as a Festival to
throughout your generations – observe it as a Festival, an everlasting Law. Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread. Indeed on the first day you cause leaven to cease from your houses. For whoever eats leavened bread from the first day until the seventh day, that being shall be cut off from Yisrael. And on the first day is a qodesh gathering, and on the seventh day you have a qodesh gathering. No work at all is done on them, only that which is eaten by every being, that alone is prepared by you. And you shall guard the Matstsoth, for on this same day I brought your divisions out of the land of Mitsrayim. And you shall guard this day throughout your generations, and everlasting Law. In the first, on the fourteen day of the month, in the evening, you shall eat unleavened bread until the twenty-first day of the month in the evening. For seven days no leaven is to be found in your houses, for if anyone eats whatever is leavened, that same being shall be cut off from the congregation of Yisrael, whether sojourner or native of the land. Do not eat that which is leavened – in all your dwellings you are to eat unleavened bread.’ ” (Shemoth/Exodus 12:1-20, HS)
“And spoke to Mosheh, saying, “Qadosh to Me all the firstborn, the one opening the womb among the children of Yisrael, among man and among beast, it is Mine.” And Mosheh said to the people: “Remember this day in which you went out of Mitsrayim, out of the house of slavery. For by strength of hand
brought you out of this place, whatever is leavened shall not be eaten. Today you are going out, in the month Abib. And it shall be, when
brings you into the land of the Kena’anites and the Hittites and the Amorites and the Hiwwites and the Yebusites, which He swore to your fathers to give you, a land flowing with milk and honey, that you shall keep this service in this month. Seven days you eat unleavened bread, and on the seventh day is a Festival to
. Unleavened bread is to be eaten the seven days, and whatever is leavened is not to be seen with you, and leaven is not to be seen with you within all your border. And you shall inform your son in that day, saying, ‘It is because of what
did for me when I came up from Mitsrayim.’ And it shall be as a sign to you on your hand and as a reminder between your eyes, that the Torah of
is to be in your mouth, for with a strong hand
has brought you out of Mitsrayim. And you shall guard this Law at its Appointed Time from year to year. And it shall be, when
brings you into the land of the Kena’anites, as He swore to you and your fathers, and gives it to you, that you shall pass over to
every one opening the womb, and every first-born that comes from your livestock, the males belong to
. But every firstborn of a donkey you are to ransome with a lamb. And if you do not ransom it, then you shall break its neck. And every first-born of man among your sons you are to ransom. And it shall be, when your son asks you in time to come, saying, ‘What is this?’ then you shall say to him, ‘By strength of hand
brought us out of Mitsrayim, out of the house of bondage. And it came to be, when Pharaoh was too hardened to let us go, that
killed every firstborn in the land of Mitsrayim, both the first-born of man and the first-born of the beast. Therefore I am slaughtering to
every male that opens the womb, but every first-born of my sons I ransom. And it shall be as a sign on your hand and as frontlets between your eyes, for by strength of hand
brought us out of Mitsrayim.” (Shemoth/Exodus 13:1-16, HS)
“For the Torah, having a shadow of the good matters to come, and not the image itself of the matters, was never able to make perfect those who draw near with the same slaughter offerings which they offer continually year by year. the things, can never with these same sacrifices, which they offer continually year by year, make those who approach perfect. Otherwise, would they not have ceased to be offered? Because those who served, once cleansed, would have had no more consciousness of sins. But in those offerings is a reminder of sins year by year. For it is impossible for blood of bulls and goats to take away sins. Therefore, coming into the world, He says, “Slaughtering and meal offering You did not desire, but a body You have prepared for Me. In ascending offerings and offerings for sin You did not delight. Then I said, ‘See, I come – in the roll of book it has been written concerning Me – to do Your desire, O Elohim.'” Saying above, “Slaughter and meal offering, and ascending offerings, and offerings for sin You did not desire, nor delighted in,” which are offered according to the Torah, then He said, ‘See, I come to do Your desire, O Elohim.” He takes away the first to establish the second. By that desire we have been set apart through the offering of the body of Messiah once for all. And indeed every priest stands day by day doing service, and repeatedly offering the same slaughter offerings which are never able to take away sins. But He, having offered one slaughter offering for sins for all time, sat down at the right hand of Elohim, waiting from that time onward until His enemies are made a footstool for His feet. For by one offering He has perfected for all time those who are being set apart. And the Set-apart Spirit also witnesses to us, for after having said before, “This is the covenant that I shall make with them after those days, says
, giving My laws into their hearts, and in their minds I shall write them,” and, “Their sins and their lawlessnesses I shall remember no more.” Now where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer a slaughter offering for sin. So, brothers, having boldness to enter into the Set-apart Place by the blood of
, by a new and living way which He instituted for us, through the veil, that is, His flesh, and having a High Priest over the House of Elohim, let us draw near with a true heart in completeness of belief, having our hearts sprinkled from a wicked conscience and our bodies washed with clean water. Let us hold fast the confession of our expectation without yielding, for He who promised is trustworthy.” (Hebrews/Ibrim10:1-23, The Scriptures, ISR)
“And it was not without an oath! For they indeed became kohenim without an oath, but He with an oath by Him who said to Him,” has sworn and shall not regret, ‘You are a Kohen forever according to the order of Malkitsedeq.’” (Hebrews 7:20-21. HS)
“By as much as this has become a guarantor of a better covenant. And indeed, those that became priests were many, because they were prevented by death from continuing, but He, because He remains forever, has an unchangeable priesthood. Therefore He is also able to save completely those who draw near to Elohim through Him, ever living to make intercession for them. For it was fitting that we should have such a High Priest – kind, innocent, undefiled, having been separated from sinners, and exalted above the heavens, who does not need, as those high priests, to offer up slaughter offerings day by day, first for his own sins and then for those of the people, for this He did once for all when He offered up Himself. For the Torah appoints as high priests men who have weakness, but the word of the oath which came after the Torah, appoints the Son having been perfected forever.” (Ibrim/Hebrews 7:22-28, The Scriptures, ISR)
- We are commanded to keep the commandments of Messiah
and to remember His death, burial, resurrection and ascension. Celebrating Passover, the Feast of Unleavened Bread and the First Fruits and Shavuot/Pentecost/Feast of the Weeks is celebrating the death, burial, resurrection, and ascension of
the Messiah.
Messiah was crucified on Pesah/Passover, and He was our Passover Lamb sacrificed for us for our sins. He was buried on the Feast of Matstsoth/the Unleavened Bread, and He was the Unleavened Bread, the Sinless Bread, the Bread of Life from Elohim given to us. But he rose from the dead. He was resurrected from the dead on the Feast of First Fruits, and He was the First Fruits who were first resurrected from the dead and ascended to Elohim on high. He ascended on high, sitting at the right hand of Elohim the Father. Then the Ruach Ha’Qodesh/the Holy Spirit was poured down on Shavuot/Pentecost/the Feast of weeks. The Day of Trumpets is a day of warning of the coming judgement of Elohim and the return of
Messiah. And Elohim is calling people to repent and reconcile to Him through
Messiah. These trumpet calls are still ongoing in the world today. Elohim is still calling His people through His indwelling Qodesh Spirit in us to call people to repent and get saved! When
Messiah returns, the trumpet calls will sound. The Day of Atonement is celebrating the atonement made by Messiah
who was atoning offering for all our sins and who has atoned all our sins once and for all and He is our High Priest forever and He is our King and our Savior the Savior of the world. HalleluYah! Elohim and Messiah
is indwelling us, having a tabernacle among us and our body is the temple of the Ruach ha’Qodesh/the Holy Spirit. And we will be resurrected one day when He returns! Then we will enjoy our everlasting life with Him in the Kingdom of Heaven forever and ever! HalleluYah! Praise Elohim! These feasts are memorials of Elohim and Master
‘s amazing love for all and His complete deliverance/salvation/redemption for all who believe in Him from bondage, sin, sickness and death and from the hand of the devil completely and permanently. Keeping the Feasts is celebrating His complete redemption, and His amazing sacrifice and His amazing love for all who believe in Him! (Matthew 26:19-29, Luke 22:13-20) I feel so honored and blessed to keep all these qodesh/set-apart feasts of
our Elohim! Unlimited thanksgiving and praise and worship to
the Most High, the Creator of all! HalleluYah!
“And going they found it as He had said to them, and they prepared the Pesah. And when the hour had come, He sat down, and the twelve emissaries with Him. And He said to them, “With desire I have desired to eat this Pesah with you before My suffering, for I say to you, I shall certainly not eat of it again until it is filled in the reign of Elohim.” And taking the cup, giving thanks, He said, “Take this and divide it among yourselves, for I say to you, I shall certainly not drink of the fruit of the vine until the reign of Elohim comes.” And taking the bread, giving thanks, He broke it and gave it to them, saying, “This is My body which is given for you, do this in remembrance of Me.” Likewise the cup also, after supper, saying, “This cup is the renewed covenant in My blood, which is shed for you.” (Luqas/Luke 22:13-20, The Scriptures, ISR)
“And as they were eating, took bread, and having blessed, broke and gave it to the taught ones and said, “Take, eat, this is My Body.” And taking the cup, and giving thanks, He gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you. For this is My blood, that of the renewed covenant, which is shed from many for the forgiveness of sins. But I say to you, I shall certainly not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on till that day when I drink it anew with you in the reign of My Father.” (Mattutithyahu/Matthew 26:26-29, ISR)
“And said to them, “I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall not get hungry at all, and he who believes in Me shall not get thirsty at all.” (Yohanan/John 6:35, The Scriptures, ISR)
“I am the living bread which came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread that I shall give is My flesh, which I shall give for the life of the world.” (John 6:51, New King James Version, NKJV)
“Therefore said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Adam and drink His blood, you possess no life in yourselves.” (Yohanan/John 6:53, ISR)
“Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. For My flesh is food indeed, and My blood is drink indeed. He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood abides in Me, and I in him. As the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, so he who feeds on Me shall live because of Me. This is the bread which came down out of the heaven, not as your fathers ate the manna and died. He who eats this bread shall live forever.” (Yohanan/John 6:54-58, ISR)
“For I received from the Master that which I also delivered to you: that the Master in the night in which He was delivered up took bread, and having given thanks, He broke it and said, “Take, eat; this is My body which is broken for you; do this in remembrance of Me.” In the same way also the cup, after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood. As often as you drink it, do this in remembrance of Me.” For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the death of the Master until He comes. So that whoever should eat this bread or drink this cup of the Master unworthily will be guilty of the body and blood of the Master. But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread and drink of that cup. For the one who is eating and drinking unworthily, eats and drinks judgment to himself, not discerning the body of the Master. Because of this many are weak and sick among you, and many sleep.” (1 Corinthians 11:23-30, HS)
“Knowing that you were redeemed from your futile behaviour inherited from your fathers, not with what is corruptible, silver or gold, but with the precious blood of Messiah, as of a lamb unblemished and spotless, foreknown, indeed, before the foundation of the world, but manifested in these last times for your sakes, who through Him believe in Elohim who raised Him from the dead and gave Him esteem, so that your belief and expectation are in Elohim.” (Kepha Aleph/1 Peter 1:18-21, ISR)
“Truly, He has borne our sicknesses and carried our pains. Yet we reckoned Him stricken, smitten by Elohim, and afflicted. But He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our wickedness. The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed.” (Yeshayahu/Isaiah 53:4-5, HS)
“Who Himself born our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness –by whose stripes you were healed.” (1 Peter 2:24, NKJV)
“In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace.” (Ephesians 1:7, NKJV)
“But now Messiah has been raised from the dead, and has become the first-fruits of those having fallen asleep. For since death is through a man, resurrection of the dead is also through a Man. For as all die in Adam, even so also all shall be made alive in Messiah. And each in his own order: Messiah the firstfruits, then those who are of Messiah at His coming.” (1 Corinthians 15:20-23, ISR)
“Therefore cleanse out the old leaven, so that you are a new lump, as you are unleavened. For Messiah our Pesah was slaughtered for us. So then let us celebrate the festival, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of evil and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.” (1 Corinthians 5:7-8, ISR)
- Keeping the Feasts is a way of showing my love and appreciation of Elohim and Master
for He said that we should keep His commandments if we love Him. I love Him so I love to keep His commandments and I love to keep His Feasts. I love Him because He first loved me. When I was still a sinner, Messiah
died for me and redeemed me with His precious blood so I can have everlasting life through Him. HalleluYah! I’m forever thankful for Him and His amazing love for me and the world!
“He who has My Commandments with him and keeps them, he is who loves me and he who loves me will be loved by my Father. And I will love him and reveal myself to him.” Yehuda (not Skaryota) said to him, “My Master, why is it you are about to reveal yourself to us and not the world?” Y’shua answered and said to him, “He who loves me keeps my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and we will make a dwelling with him. But he who does not love me will not keep my word and this word that you hear is not mine; rather, it is of the Father who sent me.” (Yochanan/John 14:21-24, Aramaic English New Testament, AENT)
“If you love Me, keep My commandments.” (John 14:15, NKJV)
“See, the days are coming,” declares , “When I shall make a new Covenant with the house of Yisrael and with the house of Yahudah, not like the Covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Mitsrayim, My Covenant which they broke, though I was a husband to them,” declares
. “For this is the Covenant I shall make with the house of Yisrael after those days, declares
: I shall put My Torah in their inward parts, and write it on their hearts. And I shall be their Elohim, and they shall be My people. And no longer shall they teach, each one his neighbour, and each one his brother, saying, ‘know
,’ for they shall all know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them,” declares
. ” For I shall forgive their wickedness, and remember their sin no more.Thus said
, who gives the sun for a light by day, and the laws of the moon and the stars for a light by night, who stirs up the sea, and its waves roar –
of hosts is His Name:” (Yirmeyahu/Jeremiah 31:31-35, Halleluyah Scriptures, HS)
- I believe that all the Feasts of
are pointed to the Messiah
. I feel so honored and blessed to keep these Qodesh Feasts! HalleluYah!

“And when He took the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each holding a harp, and golden bowls filled with incense, which are the prayers of the set-apart ones. And they sang a renewed song, saying: “You are worthy to take the scroll, and to open its seals, because You were slain, and have redeemed us to Elohim by Your blood out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation,and made us sovereigns and priests to our Elohim, and we shall reign upon the earth.” (Hazon/Revelation 5:8-10, The Scriptures, ISR)
“And I looked, and I heard the voice of many messengers around the throne, and the living creatures, and the elders. And the number of them was myriads of myriads, and thousands of thousands, saying with a loud voice: “Worthy is the Lamb have been slain to receive power and riches and wisdom, And strength and respect and esteem and blessing! And every creature which is in the heaven and on the earth and under the earth and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, I heard saying, “To Him sitting on the throne, and to the Lamb, be the blessing and the respect and the esteem and the might, forever and ever!” (Hazon/Revelation 5:11-13, The Scriptures, ISR)

For more information related to these appointed Feasts of Elohim, please check the following links but please know that I do not endorse everything it was said or written in any articles or any videos or websites recommended. We don’t need anyone to teach us, for Messiah is our Teacher, the Holy Spirit/Ruach ha’Qodesh is our Guide. But it is also wise to get some understanding from other brothers and sisters in Messiah, for
Messiah our Master can teach us through the Holy Spirit in them. Therefore enjoy the blessings.
