Psalm 17:15
“I in righteousness will behold Your face! When I awake, I will be satisfied with Your likeness.”
Selah
“On the morrow after the [weekly] Shabbat, the cohen is to wave it. On the day when you wave the omer you are to offer a male lamb without blemish, one year old, as a burnt offering to Adonai. – Yom HaBikkurim, Feast of Firstfruits. Then you are to count from the day after the [weekly] Shabbat, from the day that you brought the omer of the wave offering, seven complete Shabbatot. Until the morrow after the seventh [weekly] Shabbat you are to count fifty days, and then present a new grain offering to Adonai” (Leviticus 23:11-22).
Counting the Omer – Sefirat HaOmer
For the nation of Israel, the ‘days of the omer’ were a time of great anticipation. The barley harvest began and the wheat harvest would soon follow. They would gather, thresh, and clean grain to store for the next year. For the disciples, forty ‘days of the omer’ were spent with the risen Yeshua; the final ten they waited in Jerusalem for his promise.

Count the Omer with Psalm 119
One way to count 22 days of the omer is to read one section of Psalm 119 each day along with a complimentary verse or two from the Gospels, words spoken by Yeshua.

The Biblical Sabbath – Shabbat
When Adonai created the Sabbath, He never said, “There was evening and morning, the seventh day.” He created the Sabbath for eternal fellowship with his glorious creation. Adam and Eve, along with all of their children, were to live in the Garden forever, but sin ended the eternal day. In order for mankind to “remember” God’s promise of restoration, He commanded mankind to “remember” the Sabbath as a vision of Eternity to come.
The Miracle of Israel
There’s something about Israel that makes people uncomfortable, and it’s not what they say it is. They’ll point to politics, settlements, borders, and wars. But scratch beneath the outrage, and you’ll find something deeper. A discomfort not with what Israel does, but with what Israel is. A nation this small should not be this strong….
The Restoration of David’s Tent
The Tent of David was the place of worship for Israel and the nations from the time that David brought the Ark into the Tent until it was placed in the Temple’s Holy of Holies in the days of King Josiah. At that time, the Tent of David became ‘fallen.’ With the restoration of the…
Musaf for Shabbat
“It is our duty to praise the Master of all, and ascribe greatness to the Author of Creation, who has not made us like the nations of the lands nor placed us like the families of the earth; who has not made our portion like theirs, nor our destiny like all their multitudes. For they…
God’s Miracle for Israel
Since day one, I’ve been telling anyone who will listen that since 10/7, we’ve witnessed so many miracles, it’s hard to count.
Some of these miracles are easy to recognize, like how well the beeper operation went down or how successful we were at intercepting or detonating those hundreds of drones and ballistic missiles fired at us from Iran. Twice.
Other miracles were harder to recognize.
