The Life After The Sabbath
Thursday, August 11, 2022
In Leviticus 23:10-11, it says "When you enter the land which I am going to give to you and reap its harvest, then you shall bring in the sheaf of the first fruits of your harvest to the priest. And he shall wave the sheaf before the Lord on the morrow after the Sabbath." This was a Hebrew holy day - Yom Ha Bikoreem, the day the first fruit was lifted up from the earth and presented to God. It could only happen after the Sabbath of Passover. Messiah rose on Sunday morning, the morrow after the Sabbath; because the resurrection only comes after the Sabbath, the Seventh Day - the day the old week ends. The Resurrection is the beginning of something new and so the power of the resurrection only kicks in after the Sabbath, after the old is finished. Do you want to walk in the power of the resurrection? Then you need to have a Sabbath - to end the old life. Then you can walk in the newness of life and the power of His rising. For the Day of New Life begins "on the morrow after the Sabbath."
From Message #761 - The Sunday Morning Dawn
Put away the things of your old life so that you can be transformed into a new life He has prepared for you. Walk in His power and His victory.
Scripture: Mark 2:27-28 | Leviticus 23:10-11
