The Resurrection: New Life, New Identity

The cross was never the end — it was the doorway to new life. When Yeshua (Jesus) rose from the grave, He didn’t rise alone. In Him, we too were raised into a new identity — no longer bound by the old nature, but alive in the power of resurrection. The same Spirit that rolled away the stone now lives in every believer who has placed their faith in Him. As Paul wrote, “Therefore we were buried with Him through baptism into death, that just as Messiah was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. For if we have been united together in the likeness of His death, certainly we also shall be in the likeness of His resurrection” (Romans 6:4-5).

The Eighth Day: The Millennial Shabbat and Eternal Rest

In the divine rhythm of creation, God’s week of work and rest was more than a record of time — it was a prophetic calendar of redemption. The apostle Peter wrote, “With the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day” (2 Peter 3:8). The early Church Fathers discerned in this pattern a mystery: the six “days” of creation represented six thousand years of human labor and struggle, to be followed by a thousand-year Sabbath — the seventh “day” of rest — the Messianic reign of Christ on earth, when righteousness and peace would fill the world. This seventh millennium, they taught, would be the great Sabbath of history — the fulfillment of the rest first sanctified in Genesis.

The Prophetic Connection: Bikkurim, Pentecost, and the Final Harvest!

When the Lord appointed His feasts in Leviticus 23, He wove together a rhythm of redemption — a divine timeline that begins with Firstfruits (Bikkurim) and blossoms into Pentecost (Shavuot). God commanded Israel to count seven full weeks from the day of the wave sheaf offering — forty-nine days — and then to celebrate the Feast of Weeks on the fiftieth day. What began as a single sheaf lifted before the Lord became a countdown to the greater harvest — a shadow of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit and the global gathering of souls that would follow.

The Appointed Day: The Feast of Bikkurim and the Promise of Resurrection!

In the divine calendar of God’s appointed times, Bikkurim (Firstfruits) holds a mystery that stretches from the fields of Israel to the empty tomb in Jerusalem. This feast was celebrated “on the day after the Sabbath” following Passover (Leviticus 23:11) — what we now see as the eighth day, the day of new creation. While the nation of Israel brought their first sheaf of barley to the priest to be lifted before the Lord, giving thanks for the beginning of the harvest, something eternal was taking place beyond the veil of time: Yeshua (Jesus) the Messiah rose from the grave.

The Divine Design — Vitamin K and the Eighth Day

To truly understand the mystery of Shemini Atzeret –the Eighth Day– we must recognize that the number eight in Scripture always points beyond time, beyond the natural, into new beginnings and eternal covenant. Our deep dive begins with one of the earliest biblical mentions of the “eighth day”: the circumcision of a newborn male. “He who is eight days old among you shall be circumcised,” the Lord commanded Abraham (Genesis 17:12; Leviticus 12:3). Why the eighth day? Why not the first, or the seventh? Because the God who designed the covenant also designed the body –and even in the physical act of circumcision, His divine wisdom is revealed.

Shemini Atzeret – The Eighth Day Stop!

This is the first of a new series that I’ve not fully planned out yet, but one that I feel compelled to spend significant time unpacking — because Shemini Atzeret is the culmination of all the Feasts of the Lord. It’s the grand finale, the moment everything has been leading to — and the irony is, most believers have never even heard of it! Yet it’s one of the most profound and prophetic days in all of Scripture.

Yom Teruah: The Coronation of the King and the Call of the Bride

Today, many in Israel mark Rosh Hashanah as the Jewish New Year, yet the deeper meaning of Yom Teruah — the Feast of Trumpets — often lies hidden beneath the surface. Sweet traditions, festive meals, and greetings of “Shanah Tovah” fill the season, but the prophetic weight of this appointed time points far beyond cultural celebration. Yom Teruah is a divine rehearsal of the day when the Lord Himself will return in glory.
