Leviticus 23:23—24, “The LORD also said to Moses, “Speak to the Israelites and say, ‘On the first day of the seventh month you are to have a day of rest, a sacred assembly announced by trumpet blasts.” What makes this feast different is that is happens on a day when no one knew exactly what day it will be. The first day of the new month during the time of Moses needed to be verified by at least two witnesses who observed the new moon. They needed to be carefully watching the waning moon to be able to identify the first sliver of the new moon.
Lily Portion for Today: Friday January 26
Always remember as a parent, worry does not release tomorrow from its sorrow, it only robs today of its power. (Prayer: Adonai, help me as mother of this house to cope with my present sorrow to the best of my ability and to look forward to all the blessings You will share with me, amein)
Healing Power???
Reading Luke 8:46 But Jesus said, “Someone did touch Me, because I was aware that power had gone out of Me.”
And in Luke 9:1 Now Jesus called together the twelve [disciples] and gave them power and authority over all the demons and to heal diseases.
The Greek word for "power" in these verses is "dunamis". So healing someone brought on a sensation that power has moved. This might not have happened at all times as Yeshua did heal people without actually going to them, but we are never told whether He still experienced the power leaving him.
This raised a few questions:
1. Was that same power transfered with the laying on of hands by Yeshua?
2. Was it only His disciples that received the power to heal?
3. Why don't we still see that power moving today?
Grant Marshall Marshall raised a good question on his article: Struggling with the Days & Wrestling with the Torah. - https://social.ttn.place/read-blog/251
He asks: What is your purpose in observing the feast dates, the moon cycles and the sabbaths?
What are your thoughts on this?
