"Day of Atonement"

    "After receiving the permit for the White House Ellipse, starting on September 25th, Jason Hershey (head of David's Tent) realized that Sundown the 25th until Sundown the 26th is actually Yom Kippur – also known as the "Day of Atonement*" – on the Jewish calendar! Yom Kippur is the one day each year the High Priest would enter behind the veil into the Holy of Holies to make “atonement" or intercession on behalf of Israel. Yom Kippur is a day of fasting and humbling before the Lord. Israel would wait each year in nervous, restless expectation: "Will the High Priest come out? What will be the report? Is this year’s sacrifice atonement enough for our sins?" Praise God, we don't need to be nervous or restless anymore! We can enter a Sabbath rest! The Blood of Jesus is Atonement enough! He is our great High Priest! Not just for my sins, but for the entire assembled sins of our whole nation!

*Definition of Atonement: A payment made to satisfy the demands of justice; e.g. Jesus made atonement for our sins.

     Discovering that the first day of David's Tent DC is actually Yom Kippur stirred us to set aside that day to be different from the rest. From 7pm September 25th to 7pm September 26th, we will not have live music or any stage production at all! Instead, we are inviting you to come to a quiet tent and simply reflect, meditate and rest in the absolute truth that Jesus has paid our debt in full! If you are not in DC we invite you to join us likewise in your living room. Day one of David's Tent will be a day that we will let the Father sing His song of love over us! After all, is not our call to worship is born not out of the truth that we love, but that He loved us first? On this Day we want to encourage you to fast, to ask God to search your heart afresh and anew. Come to repent, but also to joyfully receive the great atonement of Jesus and His forgiveness – both for yourself and on behalf of America!"

    Jason Hershey announced this to us yesterday and we are so excited for what the Lord has planned! Thank you all for your support and prayers! So blessed by all of you! PLEASE if you have prayer requests, please send them to joseph@equinoxvisual.com. I want to join with you in prayer for anything that you need support in!

Love you Guys!
