Day 1 – Your divine appointment begins
Dear Friend,
They’re here! I’m talking about the
10 Days of Awe — the holiest days on God’s calendar — ushered in by the Feast of Trumpets, Rosh Hashanah. Last evening at sundown, the shofar sounds 100 blasts, declaring the start of a new year on the Hebrew calendar and marking the beginning of God’s appointed feast season of Tabernacles.
This sacred season includes:
- The Feast of Trumpets (Rosh Hashanah) and the 10 Days of Awe
- The Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur) — the holiest day of the year
- The Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot) — a celebration of God’s presence and provision
In Jewish tradition, these first 10 days of this anointed feast season are a time of repentance and turning to the Lord. But for us as believers in Jesus Christ, they hold even deeper significance. These are days to reflect, to humble ourselves, and to prepare our hearts for the
Day of Atonement — a divine appointment when God promises to draw near to His people in power.
At Calvary, the Lord Jesus fulfilled the ultimate atonement. His blood tore the veil and gave us direct access to the Father. Yet God’s Word still commands His people to observe His feast days as holy convocations.
That’s why I’m calling you to prayer and reflection during these 10 days leading into the Day of Atonement. Together, let’s believe for the release of every one of the
seven blessings promised in Joel 2: double portion, financial overflow, restoration, miracles, His presence, revelation knowledge, and deliverance.
As you seek the Lord in these 10 sacred days, prayerfully prepare your
Atonement Offering. God’s Word is clear:
“Do not appear before Me empty-handed” (Deuteronomy 16:16). This offering is more than a gift — it’s an act of obedience that aligns you with His covenant promises.
Let’s walk together through this holy season. I will be praying over you and your family daily during these Days of Awe, believing for breakthrough, restoration, and miracles in your life.
My prayer for you today:
Father, I thank You for my dear friend. Thank You that You give us an opportunity to participate in Your feasts that we might experience Your blessing. We ask today that You seal Your Word in our hearts and cause us to chase after You. Teach us to operate according to Your will and Your calendar and grow our faith in the coming days as You begin to pour out Your blessing upon us this year! In the mighty name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen!
Yours for the harvest,

Pastor Rod Parsley
