At the beginning of a new Year on the Hebrew Calendar I like to look at the new letter. Let me explain, the Hebrew Aleph Beit is Alpha Numeric that means there is a number matching each letter, so when we look at a Hebrew calendar the first day for example is the Aleph which is the first letter of the Aleph Beit
So this year the added letter is the VAV the number 6
The VAV is also the word “And” a conjunction a connector……..when looking at the Torah the VAV implies relationship between events and continuity between generations. The absence of a VAV at the beginning of a Book of Torah means a beginning of a new era
The Book of Exodus begins with a Vav as does Leviticus and Numbers
The Vav meant there is a connection to the Covenant God made with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob
The Vav meant there is a connection to what God said at creation “Let there be Light” Y-Hee-Orr God’s intention is that we be filled with the light of His wisdom and Truth
The Vav meant there was a connection of blessing for us to “Be fruitful and multiply”
The Vav is number 6 the world was created in 6 days…man was created on the 6th day this encourages us to look at where redemption for all mankind came from ….a man… Yeshua…Son of God… fully God fully man. He shed his own innocent blood on our behalf. The shape of the letter Vav looks like a nail it is speaking very loudly to us about our Jewish Messiah who was pierced for us.
So what is God telling us about this new Hebrew Year?
VAV is the symbol of Completion….Redemption and Transformation
Vav the connection between the generations the Goodness passed to our Children and Grandchildren
Vav the connection to the Covenants …… God is a Covenant God
Vav the blessing of increase…be fruitful and multiply
Vav connects past to future
Vav numerically 6…God became man…Jesus connected us in 6 ways
- Old Covenant
- New Covenant
- Heaven
- Earth
- God
- Man
This year 5776 we will see God’s Covenant people arise in unity Jew and Gentile
This year 5776 we will see the Next Generation “The Millennials” step up to take their place on the stage of history
This year 5776 we will see a Blessing of increase…Poverty gone…Lack gone…Hope renewed…Blessed beyond measure to be a Blessing
This year 5776 we will see Redemption, Transformation and Completion things that have been blocked will be free to move…things that need to be completed will be completed
Just as the world was created in 6 days…everything was there for growth and enrichment this will be a year of growth and enrichment
We Bless you and all those you love with this Goodness from Shamayim (Heaven)
God is waiting for you to step into the River of Life…
Love and Blessings
