Where do you #dwell, friend? The #Bible speaks of #dwelling--in #God’s presence, in #peace, in righteousness, and ultimately with Him forever. Are you #abiding in #Christ daily? Do you #rest in His #promises? Is your heart His dwelling place? #Read this new #blogpost: The Invitation to Dwell. #DwellWithGod #AbideInChrist #Faith #GodsPresence #BibleStudy #ChristianLiving #christianmama #gloriousmotherhood #inspiremotherhood #gospelcenteredparenting #thrivemoms #blessedisshe #hisgracegirls #Gospel
“Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.” Psalm 23:6
There is an open invitation for each one of us to respond to, and that invitation is from Jesus as He calls us to "dwell."

The Bible is actually full of Jesus’ invitations to dwell with Him, in His Word, and among His people—offering peace, righteousness, and an eternal dwelling place. This invitation to "dwell" is open to all who will respond. His call is open, personal, and life-changing.

No matter where you are in your life journey, Jesus extends His hand, inviting you into something greater than this world can offer. Today, let's look at four of these personal invitations to dwell.

​The Feast of Firstfruits

4/1/2025

6 Comments

 
Jesus rose from the dead on the very day of the #FeastofFirstfruits. This #biblical feast, outlined in #Leviticus 23, was a celebration of the first #harvest--offered to #God as a sign of #gratitude. Fulfilled in #Christ:
The Bible outlines seven major feasts given to Israel by God in Leviticus 23. These feasts were more than just religious observances—they were divine appointments that pointed to God's plan of redemption. Each feast carries deep spiritual significance, with many fulfilled in Jesus Christ, while others still point toward His second coming.

The seven feasts, outlined in Leviticus 23, are divided into two seasons—Spring and Fall. The Spring feasts (1-4) were fulfilled in Jesus' first coming. They were prophetic shadows of His death, burial, resurrection, and the outpouring of the Holy Spirit.

Let's take a deep dive into the Feast of Firstfruits and see how this biblical feast points to God's redemptive plan. ​

The Feast of Unleavened Bread isn’t just an ancient tradition--it’s a powerful call to holiness! In #Leviticus 23, #God commanded #Israel to remove all leaven for 7 days, symbolizing the removal of sin. This feast finds its fulfillment in #Jesus. His sinless body was buried during the Feast of Unleavened Bread, pointing to His perfect sacrifice and our call to live set apart for Him! How does this feast challenge us today? Dive into the spiritual significance and see how it applies your life.

Israel in Genesis: The Birth of God's Covenant People

Did you know the story of #Israel starts in #Genesis? From #Abraham’s calling to #Jacob’s transformation into Israel, this #book establishes the foundation of #God’s covenant people! Discover how God’s #promises unfold from the very beginning. Learn how Abraham’s #faith can inspire your journey with God. Explore what Jacob’s wrestling with God #teaches us about perseverance in faith. See how God’s promises to Israel connect to His promises for us as @believers today. #BibleStudy #FaithJourney
I recently received the beautiful Artza Genesis subscription box, if you're not familiar with Artza you can learn more here. Honestly, I think it's the best way to personally connect with and support artisans and craftsmen in Israel.

Each Artza box has a theme—Bethlehem, Jerusalem, Galilee, Nazareth... and so on. This Genesis box made me want to take a deep dive into the book of Genesis where the story of Israel began and so we are doing that today.

The story of Israel begins long before the nation officially exists. The book of Genesis lays the groundwork for Israel’s identity, tracing its origins from God’s covenant with Abraham to the formation of the twelve tribes. Through these foundational chapters, we see God’s sovereign plan to establish a people set apart for His purposes.

7 Signs of Jesus: Miracles That Reveal His Glory
The Gospel of John is distinct in its presentation of Jesus’ miracles, highlighting seven key signs that reveal His divine authority and identity.

Each of these miracles serves as a profound statement of Jesus' power over nature, illness, and even death, emphasizing His role as the Son of God.

These signs were recorded to strengthen the faith of believers and lead others to trust in Him.
"​Now Jesus did many other signs in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book; but these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in His name." John 20:30-31
Let’s explore these seven miracles today, and how they reveal His glory to believers and unbelievers alike.
