I Am Not Enough: Encouraging Conversations for Women of Faith

Celebrating the Feasts of the Lord: Shavuot (Weeks) - Pentecost


Listen Later

In this episode, Krysta and Traci discuss what they have learned about the festival of Shavuot (Pentecost) and the connection with the giving of the Torah (God's teaching) at Mount Sinai. The sisters share some connecting scriptures and encourage listeners to read on in the chapters to discover more about the cyclical nature of the appointed season.

Key Points: - The Lord wants a personal relationship with us and for us to live in community as well. - Numbers that appear in scripture have significance and meaning. - Shavuot was appointed to occur as a holy convocation 50 days after Passover. - When reading the Word, we are reading the history of our ancestors. Scriptures Mentioned (Complete Jewish Bible version): Deuteronomy 16:10 "You are to observe the festival of Shavu'ot [weeks] for Adonai your God with a voluntary offering, which you are to give in accordance with the degree to which Adonai your God has prospered you."

Exodus 19:16 – 19 "On the morning of the third day, there was thunder, lightning and a thick cloud on the mountain. Then a shofar blast sounded so loudly that all the people in the camp trembled. Moshe brought the people out of the camp to meet God; they stood near the base of the mountain. Mount Sinai was enveloped in smoke, because Adonai descended onto it in fire — its smoke went up like the smoke from a furnace, and the whole mountain shook violently. As the sound of the shofar grew louder and louder, Moshe spoke; and God answered him with a voice."

Acts 2: 1 – "The festival of Shavu'ot arrived, and the believers all gathered together in one place. Suddenly there came a sound from the sky like the roar of a violent wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. Then they saw what looked like tongues of fire, which separated and came to rest on each one of them. They were all filled with the Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit) and began to talk in different languages, as the Spirit enabled them to speak. Now there were staying in Jerusalem religious Jews from every nation under heaven. When they heard this sound, a crowd gathered; they were confused, because each one heard the believers speaking in his own language."
