Passover 2014

By
To celebrate the Passover meal with friends old and new is a blessing we get to enjoy each year and being able to do so here at Hebron makes it even more special.

Rich with prophetic purpose and hope, this day gives us the opportunity to reflect on the miraculous redemption that is found in Yeshua, the Messiah.  Thankfully the redemptive plan did not end with the death and resurrection of Yeshua, but we look forward to the day when He returns to Jerusalem, ushering in the reign of peace and righteousness.


Each year we gather to sit at the table with the elements of the passover meal - lamb, bitter herbs, unleavened bread and grape juice - and obediently uphold the message of torah.  This message sets us apart from the nations of the world and the traditions of men, bringing its own reward of joy and shalom.


35 of us sat down to eat the passover meal and enjoy each other's company, as well as our own Hebron raised lamb.  To be able to do so in our house makes it even that much more special.  I think we could fit in another 15 or 20 people in our living room with a bit of clever arranging.


 We read scripture, sang our praise, prayed and shared our hearts.


We are now in the week of unleavened bread and each day we are reminded to "Clean out the old leaven so that you may be a new lump, just as you are unleavened.  For Messiah, our Passover, also has been sacrificed.  Therefore let us celebrate the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth."
1 Cor 5:7-8

Where Your Treasure Is.....

By
Life has changed for our community and we are now split between two geographic locations - Salem and Mildura - with a few of us coming and going between them.   When the scripture says we are an 'unusual people', that certainly has an added layer for our community!      We are full of anticipation of what YHVH will pour out for the people of Australia, particularly the towns along the Murray River and Victoria.     But coming home to Hebron is always so good for the soul. Open skies - Open spaces   So lovely to see water in the top dam, grass emerging and  paddocks been sown for this year's hay crop.     I have been reflecting more on the truth and freedom of Yeshua's command:   Do not lay up for yourselves treasures upon earth,  where moth and rust destroy,  and where thieves break in and steal.   But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven,  where neither moth nor rust destroys,  and whe...

2025 Moedim - Appointed Times

By
Here in Australia it's spring but in the northern hemisphere the feasts at this time of year are known as the 'fall feasts' - Yom Teruah, Yom Kippur and Sukkot.   Yom Teruah Teaching It's new moon, Yom Teruah and we are anticipating Yom Kippur and the joy of Sukkot.  It's time for shouting, rejoicing, repenting and preparation - all in expectation to meet our King, our Messiah!  We put up banners, decorate our sukkah, fill the fridges and light the fires.   We will rejoice, we will enjoy each other's company but most of all, we know we will bless our Father with our obedience and He in turn will bless us. See you there!

Sukkot 2025

By
When the sun set on the 8th day of Sukkot there was much to be grateful for.  It was a week of joy and laughter, and serious reflection.  I sit here trying to put into a succinct paragraph all that transpired but suffice to say, the Creator of the heavens and the earth, our Abba, met with us, encouraged and refined us. We were joined by a brother and sister from Western Australia - family in the Messiah that we just hadn't met yet.  We look forward to meeting many more of Yeshua's community in the years to come!   We love to praise - I mean we really love to sing and shout His praises.  We do our best to do as David instructs and maybe we're not as skilful or harmonious, but we certainly are joyful!  The praise and teaching times were recorded to YouTube if you want a refresher.  Like I said, we might not be polished in sound or technique, but we are uncompromising in our devotion to Him and His Word. Sukkot Worship & Teaching    YHV...
