Sukkot 2025

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 

 YHVH used the time we spent together at Hebron to reinforce His message that for us, the Healing to the Nations community, this was time for us to divest ourselves of any encumbrances and distractions so that we were free to serve in His kingdom. 

Yeshua called Peter, Andrew, James and John to leave their boats and fishing business and follow Him.  For us, the call to follow Yeshua is now - not tomorrow, not next year, but now.  

We can pray "let Your kingdom come, let Your will be done", and take the first steps of obedience but the Master will lead us to total submission to His will.  Only when we are emptied can He fill us.

There is a great need for men and women who are willing to lay down their lives for the sheep - to feed, nurture and protect them.  We have been called to do just that and this calling was emphasised at Sukkot.  

I felt our Father's delight and eagerness to be with us, just as we were to be with Him.  This relationship of trust and transparency is developing and it is truly a joy.  When obedience is a joy, then a life of service is not servitude, it is working in the Father's kingdom and receiving an eternal inheritance.

Sukkot 2025 

Sukkot is a time of prophetic importance, not some meaningless tradition.  It is a divine appointment and as such YHVH has uninterrupted time to speak and for us to listen and respond.  There is no revival without repentance and there is no repentance without conviction.  Condemnation only brings shame and death, but conviction brings light and freedom.  

Sukkot 2025 was a time of revival.  Lives were changed and chains were broken.  May the rivers of revival flow from His throne across our nation!

Where Your Treasure Is.....

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...

Practical Deeds .... Spiritual Dividends

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...

Reflections

2 Samuel 7:18  Then King David went in and sat before YHVH, and he said, "Who am I, Sovereign YHVH, and what is my family, that you have brought me this far?" There are times when it's good to look back and reflect on the journey thus far.  These moments highlight the provisions of YHVH, the encouragements of community, the lessons learnt and the growth we have experienced.  Who indeed is this little community family that YHVH would consider us and provide for us this way?  As part of this reflection of our Hebron journey I thought I'd pop up some photos of the journey - I think you'll be surprised when you look back at how the property looked when we first took ownership.  Some people have come and gone, goals and projects have evolved but what remains consistent is the original purpose and vision for Hebron.   From Anunaka to Hebron.  The previous name of the property was itself a sign to us, confirming the scripture that YHWH gave...
