Gen 22:2 (ESV) He said, “Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, & go to the land of Moriah, & offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you.” Gen 22:8 Abraham said, “God will provide for himself the lamb for a burnt offering, my son.” So they went both of them together. When they came to the place of which God had told him, Abraham built the altar there & laid the wood in order & bound Isaac his son & laid him on the altar, on top of the wood. Then Abraham reached out his hand & took the knife to slaughter his son. But the angel of the LORD called to him from heaven & said, “Abraham, Abraham!” & he said, “Here I am.” He said, “Do not lay your hand on the boy or do anything to him, for now I know that you fear God, seeing you have not withheld your son, your only son, from me.” & Abraham lifted up his eyes & looked, & behold, behind him was a ram, caught in a thicket by his horns. & Abraham went & took the ram & offered it up as a burnt offering instead of his son. — Feast of Trumpets Lev 23:24 Speak to the people of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you shall observe a day of solemn rest, a memorial proclaimed with blast of trumpets, a holy convocation. —Heaven & Earth meet at the blowing of the Rams Horn! It is said that the sound of the horn confuses Satan. It opened heaven for Abraham & Isaac! It is our fear of God, & our willingness not to withhold anything from Him! The more we choose Him, the more that He can intervene in this world on our behalf! It also represents Gods sacrifice of His only Son for our sins! So blow your Rams horn knowing God has provided the final Sacrifice! The price has been paid! Love Mel
