This journey through The Feasts of Israel focuses on the Feasts as practiced in the Old and New Testaments.
Psalm 34: 8 calls.
The call of the Feasts is not a call to accumulate knowledge, but to intensify relationship.
Little time with the Lord in the Word, little nourishment; much time with the Lord in the Word, much nourishment.

The meat and the milk of the Word are linked to Him who feeds, satisfies, nourishes, and delights the heart (Psalm 119: 103
Jeremiah 15: 16; 1 Peter 2: 1
Hebrews 5: 12-14).
Jesus is the Feast The Word of God is Him speaking, leading us to a personal, obedient, experiential relationship with Him day by day.

They lead ultimately to His once and for all established presence with His people in the New Earth with new heavens--all things made new (Revelation 21: 5).
In each Feast is a trail that leads to Jesus--to His Cross, to an Empty Tomb, to His ever-reigning Throne, to His Return and the fulfillment of every promise made in His Word.
He calls people to come and Worship Him with a heart feasting on Him.
The historical symbols in each Feast speak a message from His heart to every believer\'s heart.
The Feasts of Israel are actually "the Feasts of the LORD." He is the focus--Meeting with Him is the point.
