We just celebrated Yom Teruah last night in our community.
Baruch Hashem!
During Yom Teruah or the Feast of Trumpets, shofars are being blown. This special time is often referred to as the ‘High Holy Days’. It is an opportunity for deep introspection, reflection, and an honest examination of one’s spiritual state. The blast of the shofar is to remind us that the King is coming SOON! The Day of the Lord is at hand - the Messiah is coming back and we need to make our hearts & lives ready.
From Yom Teruah (Feast of Trumpets) to Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement), these are set-apart days of reflection, repentance, and returning to Adonai with all our hearts. In Jewish tradition, they are called the Days of Awe—a time of deep reverence and soul-searching before the holiest day of the year.
For us as believers in Messiah Yeshua, these days carry even greater meaning, pointing us to His judgment, mercy, and atonement on our behalf.
If you would like daily reflections, prayers, and journal reflection for each of the Ten Days of Awe, you can download the free guide here:
