Thank you for joining me as we learn about the connection between Passover, First Fruits, Shavuot (pronounced shav-oo-oat) and Pentecost. As part of understanding and observing the festivals that God has appointed for us to observe, we count the Omer (pronounced oh-mare) today and then have our daily Bible reading session!
Here is the link for a downloadable devotional if you would like to count the Omer for yourself. It has been put out by the Messianic Jewish Congregation Shoresh David in Florida: https://www.shoreshdavid.org/download/counting-the-omer-booklet/
Today's reading covers 2 Kings Chapter 10-11 and 2 Chronicles 22:7-12. Today we have an incredible update on God returning my necklace to me! Praise God! Thank you, Lord! Baruch HaShem, Blessed be God! Today's reading will continue with Jehu carrying out God's judgment on the family of Ahab for all the murders of prophets Jezebel committed during King Ahab's reign and for the death of Naboth so that King Ahab could take his field. In our discussion for daily application we will talk about the importance of letting God be the one to carry out revenge for the things people do to us and for the hurt they cause us. We will read Romans Chapter 12:14-21, where Paul writes in verse 19: "Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leae room for God's wrath, for it is written: "It is mine to avenge; I will repay, says the LORD." Deuteronomy 32:35. Instead, Paul writes, we are to repay evil with kindness, feeding our enemy if he is hungry, giving him water if he is thirsty, and thereby heap burning coals on his head. We are encouraged not to be overcome by evil, but to overcome evil with good.
