Greetings:
Well again we have a cliff-hanger. The new moon was not sighted tonight in Israel, March 7th, so by default, the 1st day of the new month will begin tomorrow night March 8th, Friday night, beginning Shabbat. That was easy!
What is difficult is that we’re in a situation here that calls for Abba’s input!
What is He saying to you? We’ve had astute Messianic barley searchers who have been in Israel for days, going to all the fields near and around Jerusalem.
Todd and Brian and team have found enough aviv barley for the wave sheaf offering at First Fruits. Because of rain, the barley is not ripening as quickly as it should. But, the requirement for the stage of the barley, aviv, two weeks before harvesting, is in abundance enough so that by the wave sheaf offering it will be ready. They have gone into detail about how the barley stage is determined this year. They are very thorough! Read their updates on abibofgod.com, click on “Aviv Reports.” Scroll down and begin reading from March 4, 5, 6, and 7 reports to get the whole picture.
Compare this with the reporting of the Gordans, and friends, who have given us a confusing and non-thorough report this year. They explain little to nothing. Yesterday, they came back with “make up your own mind,” which leaves us serious ones about correctness in a quandary as to what to do. You make your decision, but make it based on what Abba says to your spirit.
This decision must have nothing to do with overcoming problems that Christian tourists have when coming to Israel for Passover! I know, going by rabbinic dates is convenient, but it separates us from hearing from Abba. He is calling us back to the ancient paths, where the good way is, preparing us for the Kingdom. (Jeremiah 6:16)
This year, Rabbinic pre-set Purim is set for the eve of March 20th. There are seven festivals that we are required to observe (Leviticus 23). Purim and Hanukkah are not part of the seven. So, if Purim overlaps with Passover, that’s fine! We are not mandated to guard Purim, though both Purim and Hanukkah are very prophetic of the time we’re in, especially to do with the anti-messiah.
Purim covers two full days. This year by rabbinic dating, Purim begins the eve of March 20 and ends the eve of March 22nd. Going by the sighting of the new moon, or default March 8th 2019, Passover begins after sunset the eve of March 22nd, the night of the 14th day from the new moon.
Spring begins the night of the 20th. Yeah!!!
Rabbinic Passover is pre-set for April, the eve of April 19th. But, by the Word of the Living Elohim, their pre-set dates are invalid and have been for centuries, since the pre-set dates began by rabbinic decrees.
According to Rabbi Glazerson, the Bible Codes are showing that the messiah will be anointed at Purim. Have you read this article? “What Year Will Messiah Be Anointed According to Bible Codes?” by Dr. Rivkah Lambert Adler February 25, 2019 Breaking Israel News
Of course, the word “messiah” means “anointed one.” But, as we know from lots of Scripture, religious Jews in league with Rome are preparing the way for anti-messiah/antichrist, and for Jerusalem to be the headquarters of the new world order, ruled by antichrist/anti-messiah, the one who sits in the place of messiah.
I am tongue-in-cheek about the Bible Codes–they’re right some times and wrong some times. But, if a false messiah is going to be anointed, it would be at Passover. The enemy would make his move at the time of his defeat nearly 2000 years ago, to reverse his defeat and take the world over for his destruction. It would also be a time when the Eliyahu company-remnant would be set-apart. While the Jews are making merry at Purim, it would be a good time for the enemy to have a hidden ritual performed for his rise to power. He’s another Haman!
I strongly believe in 7-year cycles–they are Scriptural. The division within the cycle is up to Abba. However, this Passover marks the ½-way pivot point in this present 7-year cycle we’re in. This Passover is an all-time historic one! Others have felt it too. There is something about the timing that that marks a pivot-point, turning point, a “turning the corner” point. So the controversy over when it is, is of the enemy.
*Satan wants what he is doing hidden. What better way to hide his anointing than to be anointed at the real Passover, while almost all believers are celebrating Messiah’s victory at the wrong time!!! Think about it!
Tomorrow night, I will write about verify the new moon timing, and the barley situation. In the meantime, go to Abba about it, and see what He says. Let me know what He says to you. As of now, I will go with Todd and Brian of abibofgod.com, for I feel in my spirit that they are right. But, I am open to Abba’s opinion, which is the only rightful opinion. Seek to know the seriousness of this Passover. *Do you really think the enemy would fail to cause chaos if this was not an important time?
Shalom, shalom,
Yedidah
