Passover – auf Deutsch

Nissan 14th, 5786/Ostern / 20. April 2025 Aufruf an alle Eltern und Großeltern: Das Pessachfest wird im Monat Nissan oder April gefeiert. Juden erinnern sich an ihre Befreiung aus Ägypten. Immer mehr Menschen auf der ganzen Welt besinnen sich auf die Kreuzigung und Auferstehung des Messias Jeschua-Jesus. In diesem Monat erinnern sich Juden und Christen auf der ganzen Welt an unsere bescheidenen Anfänge. Hoffentlich entscheiden wir uns dafür, das zu erforschen. Unser Gott ist die höchste Autorität in dieser Welt. Je mehr wir in Seinem Reich wachsen, desto dankbarer werden wir für den Abstand zwischen uns und dem Schmutz, der Verderbtheit, der okkulten Dunkelheit und der enormen Unwissenheit, aus welcher wir gekommen sind. „Nicht ihr habt Mich erwählt, sondern Ich habe euch erwählt!“. Ja, gnädigerweise wurden wir „gefunden“ und sind hoffentlich befreit. Da ist kein Platz für den gewohnten Stolz auf Abstammung oder Position, wir kamen unfertig, schwach und bedürftig.  Die Frage: Der Pessach-Seder legt großen Wert darauf, die Befreiung aus der Sklaverei einzuüben. Am Ende dieses großen Festes werden den anwesenden Kindern vier Fragen …

Still Small Voice – Passover 2024

Shalom dear Friends: A Blessed Passover season to my readers who love this Eternal Feast. My letter is lengthy, I had no way to download the information in digital form. Maybe it is for the better, as you may want to return to this again and again. Please take your time, read a little at a time if it is too much, but it is vital! “God brought Israel out of Egypt. Israel has strength like the wild ox … He will devour his adversaries. Blessed of God is he who blesses you and  cursed of God is he who curses you.” Numbers 24:8a, 9b. Warfare: Moses initiated the first Passover. He prepared his people and they had to be obedient by faith, not fully aware of what was coming. Can you picture the fathers and sons painting the doorposts and lentils of their homes with the blood of the lamb they just sacrificed for their family? A tough scene for sure, some 4,000 years ago. It had to leave an indelible memory.  The Eternal …

Still Small Voice – Passover 5782/April 2022

Shalom Hag Samach:  This salutation is how we greet everyone in our local supermarkets, on the streets, on local trains, buses, in the markets and shops. The atmosphere is hectic but joyful. It’s the season of miracles, and anything could happen, even Elijah could turn up at our door. It’s that annual time of frantic cleaning, buying, cooking and preparing for the great ‘seder’ or Passover Feast. It begins on Friday evening, April 15th. Fifty-one years ago I gave birth to our second son James Christian in Hong Kong at this time. His was a glorious entry. I was ‘singing in the Spirit’ during and upon his arrival to the amazement of 8 doctors who came to watch. It was faith in action: no drugs, no pain and a perfect birth! Passover and Pain: Just as it was at the beginning of this holiday of deliverance; so it is today. “Why is tonight different from all other nights?” For millennia, this ancient question has been asked by the youngest child at the Passover table. “How …

Still Small Voice – April 3rd, 2022

Shalom, my dear friends: “… Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit says the LORD,”  Zechariah 4:6 “It will come about on that day that thoughts will come into your mind, and you will devise an evil plan, and you will say, I will go up against those who are at rest and peaceful, who live securely … to take a spoil … against the people who are gathered from the nations … who live at the center of the world. [Israel]”  Ezekiel 38: 10,11a, 12b. Trouble Deep Within: “Don’t go out tonight, Hezikiah.” “Strange?”, he thought, as he closed his phone. The warning came from his elder brother. It had already been a week of horror here in Israel with 5 citizens shot in cold blood and a Rabbi killed by a car-ramming. He shivered and put it out of his mind. Sometime later, his little son was fussy and fought sleep. Weary and needing a break, as his wife had cared for the little one all day, Hezikiah made a …
