The feast of Rosh Hashana begins at Sundown today and lasts for two days. In ancient times, it was called the "Very Long Day." Many Believers look to the Fall Feasts of the Lord as both the Time of Jacob's Trouble and the Wedding Day of the Messiah, because this Feast--the Feast of Trumpets--is the Day on which the "Last Trump" will be sounded, proclaiming the long-awaited Rapture of Messiah's Bride.
at the last trump:
the shofar shall sound ...
and we shall be changed." ~ 1st Cor. 15:52
The Virtuous Woman is called to keep her oil lamp trimmed and be ready for whatever season her Heavenly Bridegroom returns. This is a figurative way of saying she should keep watch over her heart, her mind, her family and her household, so that Day does not catch her unawares. Be vigilant and contending for the truth. Trusting always in the Holy Spirit, given as our engagement ring at the betrothal of the Bridegroom when we first believed. And while the world celebrates with apples and honey and greetings of L'shanah Tovah (a sweet new year), the Virtuous Woman remembers her calling and her destiny: She is the Bride of His Desire.
Listen to her love song to her Messiah Bridegroom as she waits:
