Marriage

The Feast No One Knows the Day or the Hour!

Tonight, thousands will gather to celebrate Yom Teruah, the Feast of Trumpets, a festival unlike any other in the Lord’s calendar. It is the only moed (appointed time) that begins on the very first day of the month, Rosh Chodesh. While most feasts start on the 15th day, when the full moon is clearly visible, Yom Teruah is uniquely tied to the sighting of the new moon, making it distinct and filled with mystery.

Final Cry of Elul — Awake, Bride of Messiah

The month of Elul has been a journey of mercy, repentance, and preparation. From the first blast of the shofar to the last fading note, every day has called us to return, to awaken, to draw near. Elul began with the whisper of covenant love: “I am my Beloved’s, and my Beloved is mine.” It reminded us of Moses ascending the mountain for forty days, of God revealing Himself not as eager to destroy, but as merciful and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in steadfast love. It pointed us to second chances, to restoration, to intimacy with the Bridegroom.

Clothed as a Bride, Standing as Watchmen!

The final consolation of Elul gives us a breathtaking picture: the Bride, radiant and ready, clothed not in her own efforts but in the garments of salvation and the robe of righteousness. This is the joy of the Bride who knows the love of her Bridegroom has covered her. She does not stand ashamed or unprepared, but adorned, beautiful, and confident in His covenant love.

Arise, Shine, for Your Light Has Come!

As Elul nears its close, the prophetic consolation swells to a crescendo. Jerusalem is no longer told merely to wait for comfort — she is commanded to arise and shine. Though thick darkness will cover the nations, the glory of the Lord will break forth on His people. The Bride is not called to shrink back, but to radiate the brilliance of her Beloved.

Don’t stop now – more truth and grace await.

Elul — The bridal summons!

If Elul begins with intimacy, it culminates in readiness. The sound of the shofar throughout this month is not just a wake-up call — it is a bridal summons. It is the voice of the Bridegroom calling His Bride to prepare for the wedding feast of the Lamb. John’s vision in Revelation declares: “Let us rejoice and exult and give Him the glory, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His Bride has made herself ready” (Revelation 19:7).

I Am My Beloved’s, and He Is Mine

The month of Elul has always carried the whisper of covenant love. Even the letters of its name, Aleph-Lamed-Vav-Lamed (אלול), form the acronym for “Ani l’dodi v’dodi li” — “I am my Beloved’s, and my Beloved is mine” (Song of Songs 6:3). At its heart, Elul is not only about repentance, but about intimacy — the Bride turning her heart back toward her Bridegroom.

The Month of Elul — A Season of Return!

This begins a very special season on God’s calendar — the month of preparation before the Fall Feasts. The month of Elul is unique: it is the 12th month on the civil calendar and the 6th month on the prophetic/biblical calendar. Each day of Elul is marked by the blowing of the shofar, a trumpet call that awakens the soul. These daily blasts prepare our hearts for Yom Teruah (the Feast of Trumpets, Rosh Hashanah) and ultimately for Yom Kippur (the Day of Atonement).
