Sukkot 2024

By

The Healing to the Nations fellowship came together to celebrate Sukkot here at Hebron and what a blessed time it was.

It seems that since Sukkot life and work got crazy busy so an update on our time together slipped off the priority list.  But as I reflect back on our time together and what has transpired since then I am again encouraged.

There was a flurry of preparation in the meeting room and sukkah, and Hebron was ready for a big week of fellowship, praise and times with our King and Adonai. 

Although there was one big disappointment because I could not locate the flags that we line the driveway with.  Colourful flags will definitely make an appearance for Sukkot 2025 though.

Not everyone was able to come up at Sukkot and they were missed but there is always next year.  Father Yehovah's wisdom in establishing the annual feasts is such a powerful prophetic witness and joy for Messiah's body.

The highlight of Sukkot is always spending time under the sukkah in the morning to go through the scriptures and pray.  This year the weather was perfect so we were able to spend a lot of nights out in the sukkah as well.  

Yehovah encouraged and challenged us through the teaching, the praise music and prophetic words.  Australia's time has come.  He has heard the prayers and groans over many, many years and the river of His blessing is about to flood through the land. Hallelu Yah!

Being obedient to His Word and commandments brings joy and shalom into our lives.  Sunday worship gives way to the blessing of Shabbat, Christmas and Easter gives way to the feasts of Yehovah and traditions and doctrines give way to the truth of scripture.  Life then just makes sense.  We no longer have to wonder that there's got to be more than this.  More than just rocking up to a meeting a couple of times a week, more than a belief that when I die I go to heaven and not hell.

The whole book - from Genesis to Revelation - comes together and His plan not just for mankind, but our individual lives, becomes evident, meaningful and wonderful.  Each commandment, each instruction, each feast all are parts of the whole.  The kingdom of Yehovah come and His will being done on earth as it is in heaven.  

The body of Messiah is in desperate need of His living water to revive and restore.  There are precious loved ones in the system of Christianity who are saying "there's got to be more than this" and we know that prayer is about to be answered.  

So this small fellowship in the Adelaide Hills was greatly blessed this Sukkot and since then Yehovah has opened doors and shared a little of His intentions for our region in Australia.  May His kingdom come and His will be done in us and through us!

Joy Comes in the Morning

By
  For over a year South Australia and Victoria have been in drought.  Dams are dry, crops have failed and trees are dying.   When the community bought the property 19 years ago we invested in sinking a bore to ensure water security.  The water quality is good enough to water the stock and our gardens.  We also have large rainwater tanks which have kept water to the house.  However, if the drought had of continued we would have hooked the house up to the bore water as well.    We had stored enough hay to feed our sheep and alpacas and they were well fed.  Investment in the infrastructure has been a big expense in both finances and labour over the years, but it's in years like this that it's well worth it.  It brings so much joy to see the green grass and gardens when the paddocks are bare and dry.   Praise YHVH, the rains came last week!   We have received 40ml over the last couple of weeks and more is on the...

Pesach 2025

By
It was such a blessing for our community to come together at Hebron  for the Pesach meal and the first day of unleavened bread.   We are not a big community in the Adelaide Hills but we are testifying that  Yeshua is the Messiah and walking in His ways.  There are so many individuals or families that don't have a Messianic fellowship that they can be part of because of geographic distances - or even theological distances.  Our desire is to see Messianic fellowships form and develop in many more parts of Australia so that the sheep of His pasture are fed, nurtured and protected. The Good News of Messiah and His kingdom has been hidden and misconstrued since the early times but the Ruach is revealing truth - the truth that sets His people free.      So as we come together in obedience to observe the moed, whether it's a couple here or a big fellowship over there, we are encouraged and built up in Him as we run the race that He has set before ...

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...
