Water Your Worth

Today, I woke up with a fire of passion ignited to do this Biblical and proper for the Lord. I was able to wake earlier than my child today and sit in the beginning of the day with God on my own. I found myself after prayer going into the Word and dissecting the exact days and ways to celebrate passover and the feast of unleavened bread. “During the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month in the evening, is Adonai’s passover.” (Leviticus 23:5 (and see also Exodus 23:14-17)) This took me further into wanting to know about how the Biblical calendar operates and when to acknowledge specific times of year that God says are to be celebrated for Him.

I knew that the Biblical calendar new year started around spring but I was not aware of yet that each new month is started with the first crescent moon showing after the new moon. I now also know that the beginning of the year is with that lunar cycle in what we call March (so it started on the nineteenth this year). What hits me along with this is how every time I go deeper in/with the Word, the enemy’s lies are also revealed – he really twists everything and makes it a thing of fashion or other religions that turn against Christ with such a strong hatred that that alone should draw a red flag as to why are these supposed religions are so against those that literally are led to love their enemy. Anyways…

On top of this deeper dive, drive and longing of respectful adoration for the One; I have been reading a little book called ‘The Power of Communion’ for us as my child truly loves communion. I so appreciate the connections that were made with Melchizedek and Yeshua and why the sharing of communion is not shared (or given rather) by any other priestly duties as commanded by God. Through reading and prayer this brought me to a realization and delight that my child and I can participate, celebrate and fully recognize Christ in regular communion – this actually made my child super excited as well. There truly is no greater feeling than connecting with the One that gave His life for us to be saved from death, darkness and everlasting torment. Thank You, Jesus!

One thing I like to do in the beginning of the days or in the middle of the nights to wake up to, is to ask the Holy Spirit to direct the Word that I need to know and focus on for the day. Today, the Bible was opened up to 1 Corinthians 8:3 and it is written, “Whoever loves God is known by God.” Hallelujah! While it might seem to some that I am super involved and maybe slightly obsessed, this verse gave me the confirmation that I was known and my love is being received. And honestly, He is the only One that deserves it most and is most desired to be known by.

So, for those that would like to know: Adonai’s passover is tomorrow evening and then the feast of unleavened bread starts the day after. There are a lot of things that are intertwined with the ways of worship and ultimately it is in our dedication and living that is the greatest form of worship (as long as accepting Christ as Lord) and… there are a lot of things that are no where in the Bible and (for me) don’t make sense. The easter bunny, eggs, egg hunts and even the label of easter. Come to find out this label and even the symbols of eggs actually come from a “goddess” that pagans named to celebrate the beginning of spring. This is absolutely not in any way proper for acknowledging the resurrection of God’s Messiah and honestly pretty disrespectful. As, I have mentioned in previous posts I choose not to participate in calendar holidays, definitely don’t do santa claus and absolutely no halloween… I know that some people like to participate in some ways while giving focus to God but, for me I just feel it is playing to close to the fire and I want my son and I to both be brought in with the greatest of arms as we shift out of this world into the Kingdom.

I know this can be a lot but, here is something else that hit me and I have touched on briefly before. We are not supposed to be filled with so much knowledge and honestly, if we just dedicated more time to the Truth then there is not much room left for the other stuff to get in. Seriously! The Bible is so full of knowledge, direction, support, guidance and of course… LOVE. One thing I love about being a mom is how I get to read the Jesus Storybook with my child and how easily we can connect Christ through every story in the Bible and know God’s great, always and forever love.

I know life gets busy and full of stuff (responsible and other) but… isn’t He the reason you have life? Isn’t He worth acknowledging deeply and wanting to know more, no most?
