Today is the day of days. This is the day in which we stop to remember the ultimate and perfect sacrifice that was given for all mankind that we may finally come into full relationship with the Creator of all. He gave to us His son who revealed the path that we are to take in order to live a life that is worthy of being called into His kingdom.
On this day of days, the curtain was torn at the Holy of Holies and the Great I Am allowed all to come into His presence. No longer would the presence of God be shrouded. His spirit was now living the temple and would soon be indwelt among the many believers.
As this day was about to end, another celebration was about to commence, the Feast of the First Fruits. This feast recognized that Jehovah God asked for first portion of one’s harvest as a sacrifice and in faith, He would provide the remainder of the harvest. He asked that the best was brought to be sacrificed. Christ was perfect in all accounts and the best that could be offered. Many would argue that as the day ended, Christ was not buried but He was rather planted. Paul declared, “Christ has been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those who are asleep.” (1 Corinthians 15:20)
After this day of days, things would forever change in this world. The true revelation of Jehovah God was complete. Christ tells us, “Come and follow Me.” Are you ready to give up all this world has to offer in order to live for the King of Kings?
