Love this Feast! The book of Esther couldn't be more compelling to witness the hidden hand of GOD over HIS..people! During the celebration of "PURIM" many believers who celebrate the biblical feast of the bible will dress up for this feast. In the book of Esther you find that Esther is so-called "Hidden" for such a time as GOD would use her to face the King and ask for favor that her JEWISH kinsmen would be saved from annihilation. However, the dressing up part looks more like halloween and some have even dressed like jezebel?? This does not give account to the beautiful meaning or Glory to God for the amazing true story of Esther. What a great loss! Our family will read the whole book of Esther and watch the franklin films video of Esther. We usually can't get enough of it till almost time for the next Feast to come in which is Passover. Y'Shua ( HIS Hebrew name) is our Passover Lamb. Since the church long divorced their Hebrew biblical roots most don't realize the "Passover Lamb" is who their Messiah is today and always. THe church has been taught pagan holidays, INSTEAD, thru the catholic church via constantine in 325. The history is there for anyone to research. The Biblical calendar that was ordained by GOD to REVEAL HIMSELF and HIS REDEMPTIVE PLAN for mankind is still HIS calendar. NOTHING has changed! HE is still the Passover lamb and should be celebrated as such yearly on that appointed time. THere is much to learn about this and the anti-semitism that stole this from the church years ago. THE early church celebrated the biblical feast as they were taught them and they threw out their pagan roots. Look at Ruth's example and what Y'shua said to the woman at the well. Y'shua told her to get off of her Pagan mountain where her people worship, that she didn't know what she was doing, but they knew what they were doing because "SALVATION" (Y'SHUA) is of the Jews. THe scriptures have all the truth and man made traditions have passed down lies! SADLY! We all became victims of satans lies when we were born into this world!
Jeremiah 16:19b the Gentiles shall come unto thee from the ends of the earth, and shall say, Surely our fathers have inherited lies, vanity, and things wherein there is no profit.The voice of the Messiah Y'shua to the gentile women at the well: John 4:22 You Samaritans (gentiles) worship what you do not know; we worship what we do know, for salvation is from the Jews.Y'shua would have to say the same thing today to the church. THe holidays that the church keep are NOT FOUND in the bible ANYWHERE! That should be reason enough to not celebrate them. BUT traditions and lack of knowledge is why GOD said HIS people perish. The Bible is there to be studied and that is what we need to do for ourselves and pray. It is a hear thing to change family traditions...I KNOW! The truth is what sets us free from the lies that our forefathers handed done. IT made me madder than mad when I found out I was a victim of these lies. I wanted to the truth and I loved being just like the early church when it was following in the exact footsteps of the Messiah. I wanted it! That is where we have to be and I pray that for all who love the Messiah of the Scriptures alone!

Love for the biblical Appointments with Men
Soon "PURIM" will arrive. The book of Esther is the most amazing account of GOD'S "HIDDEN" hand yet for those with eyes to see we can see HIM working all around. Esther's name means "Hidden" and it was GOD'S Master Plan all along for Esther's life to do this deed. To become married to a man that was greedy for a womans company. She was taken from her safe home, she had a heart after GOD and leaned on him for her being. BUT just when another death sentence was established to kill the JEWS it becomes clear why GOD had vashti in all of her pride to disobey so He could put Esther in that palace to be chosen as QUEEN to save the JEWS!!! I cannot get enough of this beautiful story of GOD'S hidden hand that is always involved in the lives of those who have given their hearts to HIM!!!
