THE MEMORIAL OF THE BLOWING OF TRUMPETS




I was talking to a neighbor about scriptures when he made a statement that “Gabriel will blow the horn when Jesus comes for us in the rapture”, I asked, “Can you read that to me?” He said it’s in Revelation somewhere and that he would find it and read it to me.

We then started talking about the Great trumpet or at least I did. I said do you know that there are seven Angels that have seven trumpets, in Revelation 8:2? He looked at me, funny, you know a puzzled look, a look that said “What are you talking about?” I said, “Well when you have time we will sit down and read the scriptures, and we will rightly divide the scriptures.
Well we have not sat down yet.

However, it got me to thinking about how many people do not know about the trumpets of God. Well, let’s go to the Holy Scriptures, and read about them. Turn to Leviticus 23:1-2, 4, we read that the Lord is telling Moses to speak to Israel concerning His (the Lord’s) Feasts. God to Leviticus 23:23-25, the Lord tells Moses to tell the children of Israel to observe the Memorial of the Blowing of Trumpets. “You shall have a Holy convocation, in the seventh month; the first day of the month.” Now this is just one of the Lord’s Sabbath Days, the one this post will be looking at. It is part of the Lord’s Plan.

Turn to Exodus 19:10-11, the Lord tells Moses to tell the people that the Lord was coming down on Mount Sinai, and the Lord came down, Exodus 19:14-19. And the trumpet sounded announcing the coming of the Lord/King.

So now we know that the trumpets announce the coming of the Lord. We will look at this further as we journey through the scriptures. Now turn to Numbers 31:1-6, we read that trumpets also are used to sound a battle. In the sixth chapter of Joshua we read that Israel is about to attack Jericho, for the Lord had given Jericho into the hands of Joshua, and that all the men of war should march around the city once a day for six days, and seven priests shall have seven trumpets and they shall march around the city for six days blowing the trumpets.
The people were commanded not to shout until the seventh day, when they would march around the city seven times and on the seventh go round the people would shout when the seven trumpets sounded and the wall fell down flat. The people went in and took the city of Jericho. Here we see seven priests given seven trumpets to sound at the fall of Jericho, which signals the beginning of the end of the Canaanite empire, Joshua 3:10.

Turn to Revelation 5:6, we read about the seven seals, which represent the beginning of the Great Tribulation. We will read more on the seven seals later, now turn to Revelation 8:1-2, and read about seven Angels being given seven Trumpets, Revelation 8:6. There was also seven Angels given seven golden vials full of the wrath of God, Revelation 15:1, 6-7. Most people do not know about the seven trumpets of the Lord, they are taught about only one trumpet, which is the seventh and last trumpet.

However there is much to happen before that trumpet is blown. They are never taught about the Angels that have the seven vials of wrath. That is why the Lord has a Sabbath called the Memorial of the Blowing of Trumpets, because this Sabbath is a part of the shadows of things to come, Colossians 2:16-17. This is what Paul was speaking of when he spoke of the Sabbath days, Trumpets that the seven Angels sound is the end of the Great Tribulation, Revelation 11:15, and man’s rule of this system of things. I could go into greater detail about the seven seals, seven trumpets, and seven golden vials of the wrath of God, but you can join us in keep this Sabbath Day on

Come join us and get a more detailed picture of the lesson of the The Memorial of the Blowing of Trumpets.


For the Lord said,I gave them My Sabbaths to be a sign between Me and them", Ezekiel 20:11-12, 20.

Can I just go on record of reading your post along with Freedom's. I rarely leave comments, because it is just hard, for some reason, for me to leave post on the spoken word. I think the reason I am leaving this post is because of all of the Hurricanes and stuff and how I have just recently been thinking about the last days and the signs to come. I don't have much, if anything to say, I just thought it was interesting that this post kind of hit home to where my mind had been headed this week.

God bless, and we know he always does.

Thank you for dropping by.

Yes the trumpets are a part of the Last Days. Yes, things are getting rough, weather, wars everywhere, earthquakes, famines, economy growing worse daily, all this is the "beginning of sorrows", Matthews 24:1-8.

People say things will get better, but really things will get much worse, because we are at an end to man running things.

P.S. We know what is going on; we have been to the back of the Book (Bible) Amos 3:6-7

6 If a trumpet is blown in a city, will not the people be afraid? If there is calamity in a city, will not the LORD have done it? 7 Surely the Lord GOD does nothing, Unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets.

OM,I would like to send you a text lesson from The Israel Of God entitled, THE LOST TRIBES OF ISRAEL. If that is alright. You may have it by now as my sister King's Kid told me that she sent it to "your twin" Bria and asked that she forward it to you. My e-mail is BroTyrone@37.com

Peace
