"From New Moon to New Moon, and from Sabbath to Sabbath, I will draw all flesh before me," says the Lord of Hosts. Isaiah 66: 23
It is Solnal, First Day of the calender for the Year of the Dog in the Chinese horoscope. Like the ancient Hebrews, the lunar cycle is the foundation for setting dates. Those who have read the ancient books of the bible know how important the moon was in regard to their festivals and feast days. Among them, when a new moon was on the Sabbath, it was celebrated as a High Sabbath, a very special time to the Hebrews.
For those familiar with the prophecy of Isaiah spoken of in Isaiah 66, the keeping of the new moon and the Sabbath is a cycle that will never draw to a close. This scripture is focused on a time in the future, after sin has been destroyed, and all who survive their personal struggles with sin and have overcome sin through the blood of the Lamb will live on throughout eternity. YHWH will fulfill His promise of being the God to the people who love Him, who have tasted and seen that yes, the Lord of Hosts is good, indeed.
Those who hate God, who never learned to trust Him, who refused His offer to taste and see, who refused His offer of "come, let us reason together," who have ultimately turned their backs to Him and walked after false gods and selfish desires, and who put their faith in lies, deceit, and ignorance will not survive to see the renewing of all things at the end of time as we know it. On Solnal, the First Day after the flames have consumed the wicked, the righteous will walk in their ashes, and Eden will be restored.
Today, many are praying to their ancestors a blessing and an offering. This day I remember where I come from, and thank my First Father, YHWH, for all that He has done to restore me into His kingdom through Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior. I have visited the ancient palaces of kings and emporers. They are indeed beautiful, but they do not compare to the throne room where my First Father resides and rules over the universe. I have tasted. I have seen. Truly the Lord God of Hosts is worthy to be praised.
"Now the hour of His judgmend has come..." Revelation 14:7 What verdict will you render on God's behalf?
Amen.

Thank you, Lord, and thank you for this post.
Thank you for stopping by, have a good week!
do I know you?
I was nearly going to ask, 'who one earth would hate God?' but then considered if you hate God's creation, you also hate God. How sad. Yet no one is beyond redemption.
I have missed you! Ooohh. The year of the dragon in six years. We can talk about that in email. At this point, there are many, many disturbances, but they seem to be fighting each other, not us.
thanks it will be good..
oh ok. Things are going alright actually at the Dragon's Den. Tim has the shop now because Brian and Dustin quit. I'm not sure why Brian did, but Dustin's going to school now.
Well said. Happy New Year & all the best to you & yours.
