JEWISH FEASTS

The Jewish feasts have an important role in the Old Testament as well as the New Testament. The Jewish Feasts have a natural as well as Spiritual Revelation. Bible commands us to pray for Israel and the capital of Israel Jerusalem especially. God remembers the Covenant made with Prophet Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. There is a special blessing attached to the Holy Land. God has not changed. The land of the Prophets is Blessed. Lord JESUS CHRIST The Son of the living God walked on this land of Israel, Blessed the people from there and Preached and Taught the Kingdom of God and Heaven from there. All nations have been Blessed as a result of that. Salvation, healing, deliverance, redemption, Eternity was Revealed and Manifested from Israel.
