Pesach 2016

By


Hebron was full of life, laughter and joy when we gathered together to share in the Pesach meal together.  Falling on a Friday evening it was a busy and hectic week for everyone to be organised and come together in time but it was well worth the effort.  We were also joined by Kerry and Alan from Ballarat way, which made it even more special.





On the Monday previous we had several of our flock slaughtered by a mobile butcher in preparation for Pesach.  This was the first time we've processed the sheep this way and even though it is slightly more expensive it was worth it for humane reasons and the less running around.  It was also the first time we spit roasted a lamb and as complete novices it was a day fraught with drama keeping the beast where it should be, but at the end of the day it roasted up perfectly and in time.

 Quite a few of our group were able to stay the night so we could continue fellowship for Shabbat.  It was a perfect day of fellowship, relaxation and praising our Messiah, Yeshua.  During our time of praise the kindness and compassion of Yehovah was evidenced in Him manifesting His presence to minister to us, bringing liberty, revelation and healing.  How amazing is His mercy and love!  Lives touched; never to be the same.  Hallelu Yah, Yeshua our passover lamb lives to reign!


Some were able to stay another night so we could spend another day together to complete some necessary tasks, such as weaning off the lambs from the flock.  There's always tasks to complete and maintenance to be attended to but it's even better when you can complete these with friends.

It's weekends like this that Hebron comes into its own.  The house is full, kids are enjoying the great outdoors, dogs are having a ball (except mine who goes into OCD overdrive) and the property is slowly but steadily being developed.
One of the jobs we will need to do over the next month or so is planting out more tree seedlings.  Tree planting is one of those jobs no one jumps for joy over but the benefits are incalculable.  We're waiting for more rain so the subsoil moisture will sustain the seedlings.

All praise to Him from whom all blessings flow!

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!

Practical Deeds .... Spiritual Dividends

By
The practical outworkings of our worship and obedience may look different from one individual to another, one family to another or one fellowship to another.  Here at Hebron it's a matter of looking after the land, stock, home and infrastructure to ensure that things are ticking along as they should in a timely manner; creating a refuge and oasis, now and for the future.  This week the flock were treated to some mineral blocks, which will provide necessary salts and minerals that they need to remain in tip top shape while they're lambing in the summer months.  The smaller top dam is well and truly dry but this would be the perfect time to get the tractor in there and dig it deeper, which would also have the bonus of providing good dirt for the vegie patch.  This dam is not spring fed so having it deeper would provide more water for next summer, provided it fills during the winter months. The vegie patch, or as I prefer to call it at times, the battlefie...
