Shavuot

Today Israel is celebrating Shavuot. It is both a practical and agricultural holiday celebrating the first harvest of the year and a spiritual holiday remembering the giving of the Torah (Law) on Mount Sinai. People eat sweets and dairy foods to show our thanks to God for providing of land full of milk and honey. For the body of believers in Messiah, we also celebrate the giving of the Holy Spirit. Please be praying for this special day of celebration for the Jewish body worldwide, that the revelation of the Holy Spirit will come upon them. Also we ask for your prayers for protection and safety, as always are needed during holiday seasons.
