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 

 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!

Blessed Dry Times

By
In Australia it's summer time.  In South Australia it's particularly dry and there is a real possibility of below average rainfall for the autumn season as well.  This is not unusual for our part of the country.  It's part of the natural cycles and here at Hebron we take the necessary preparations.  The dams are drying up but we have plenty of rainwater in the tanks and a bore that draws up water from 60 metres below, so for a short dry spell we are well prepared. We have enough dry feed in the paddocks and bales of hay for the flock of sheep to get us through this dry season.  I'm actually grateful for this dry spell this month because it means that the evil caltrop has not germinated, saving me from a lot of work.  Caltrop (think the most evil version of a three-corner jack!) needs higher temperatures and good spring rains to germinate - usually in early December.  Caltrop and I will continue our battle if we get rain before the summer ends though!

Sheep of His Pasture

By
The guys have been out fixing fences so that our flock can move into the paddock.  The roos have a tendency to break fences and dig holes so it's an ongoing chore unfortunately.  Whilst it's rather nice to see them out in the paddocks, and to see when the joeys emerge from the pouch, it can be frustrating as well. Moving the flock into a different paddock is always one of my favourite things to do because you get to give them a closer check and they're always excited about going into a fresh paddock.   So late in the afternoon last Friday I thought, why not share it with you as well.  Enjoy a quick visit to Hebron and I pray that wherever you are, in whatever pasture our Father YHVH has you, that you are blessed and experiencing His overshadowing kindness.

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...
