Shalom Friends,
Join us as we discuss the coming lunar & solar eclipses, which begins tonight with the lunar eclipse and two weeks later with the solar eclipse on the eve of the Feast of Trumpets. We will review and discover how Yah has used these signs and signals (Gen. 1:14), or what is know as His faithful witnesses in the sky (Sun-Moon -Ps. 89), to provide us with markers on His prophetic calendar and timeline, especially with the migration or Aliyah of the Jewish people back to Israel. From 2024-2026, Yah is declaring that these eight occurrences of the solar and lunar eclipses on important dates on the biblical calendar are very important to understand, as they are warning signals of what is about to occur on the earth (Ps. 19:1). Remember, Paul warned the believers to understand the times and the seasons (1 Thess. 5), and the solar and lunar eclipses are the witnesses that set the times and the seasons (Moedim). We will also correlate three current world leaders who were born on these signs, which tells us exactly what is occurring in the Middle East on Yah's prophetic timeline with the the kingdoms in the book of Daniel. Lastly, we will speak about the UN General Assembly in New York which correlates with the timing of these warning signals in Yah's heavenly billboard.
Many Blessings,
Chadwick

We begin our year-long journey from the cross to the crown — a spiritual purification journey on God's divine appointments. I really appreciate you taking your Friday night to spend with us as we begin with the first five prerequisites of the book, laying the foundation for everything ahead. I believe it is vitally important to establish that foundation so we can all understand what it means to be set apart according to what God has ordained.
Shabbat shalom, everyone. Happy Sabbath as we have entered into the Sabbath at sundown. It is also an exciting time: in 48 hours we have the Feast of Trumpets — Rosh Hashanah, the beginning of the Civil New Year. This also marks the end of a shemitah cycle, a seven-year cycle, and we begin a new seven-year cycle. Ten days after that we have the Year of Jubilee beginning on Yom Kippur, and five days after that comes the Feast of Tabernacles — a revelatory feast of rejoicing. It is a great time to be alive. There is a great deal of transition happening, and I believe it is a critically important moment. When you look at the world alongside the Holy Bible, it becomes clear how essential it is to be set apart, to be intimate with God, and to make sure we are hearing him correctly — both in our personal lives and prophetically — as we enter into the end of the age.
This is the reason I wanted to get the book out. I apologize for releasing it the same week as the Feast of Trumpets, which leaves limited time to read the prerequisites, but do not worry — we will do videos on each chapter and it will all tie together beautifully. For those just joining us: this past Tuesday I released a book called *The Cross to the Crown: A Spiritual Purification Journey on God's Divine Appointments.* It is a year-long journey on God's calendar and his divine appointments — his feast days — journeying through the revelations found in each month: the anointing of the month, the Hebrew letters, the tribe of the month, and the constellation of the month. He wants us to participate in his new moon celebrations and more. It is a beautiful journey to take with the Lord. The book is really just a vehicle — it is about the Holy Scriptures and walking with the Lord. I have tried to put it all in one place as a kind of study guide. You can download it at faithfulperformance.com through the shop, or email me at [email protected] and I will send you the ebook.
I have been receiving many emails from people who are really tuning in to the Lord, with a great deal of prophetic confirmation about the season we are living in. It is always a good time to draw near to the Lord, but he specifically wants us to be intimate with him on the days he has ordained — ordained before the foundation of the world — for believers in Yeshua the Messiah to draw near to him, worship him, and have a relationship and friendship with him. He is also our righteous and just judge. The whole point of being set apart is that we want to be a spotless bride when he returns. When you set yourself apart, you will receive righteous, rendered verdicts in due time according to his timeline on your life. He will show you favor because you are keeping his set-apart times. He is a set-apart God with a set-apart Spirit and set-apart ways, for set-apart people — and that includes you and me.
He wants us to live in freedom and liberty. Unfortunately, so many people — believers included — are living in bondage. I was one of them, and I still have areas I want to grow in. None of us have arrived. As I discussed in the introduction to the book, it is like Jacob's Ladder: you are either ascending or descending; no one is stagnant. We want to keep ascending, keep rising toward the Lord in intimacy, drawing near to the things he loves — his Word, his commandments, his feast days, his new moons, his Sabbaths. That is where he is, and that is where we want to be. On his divine appointments, his holy days that he has ordained — not those ordained by mankind — you will receive favor, you will receive answered prayers, righteous rendered verdicts. He does not want any of us to live in captivity or bondage.
The first line of the book came to me on Pentecost — Shavuot — at around three or four in the morning when the Lord woke me. The line was simply: *freedom is never easy.* Whether you are talking about war, financial freedom, or spiritual freedom, it is never easy. Consider the Messiah's Second Coming: many believe he will simply snap his fingers and it will be done, but that is not what Scripture shows us. He is coming to war. For ten days — from the Feast of Trumpets to Yom Kippur — he will be at war, as described in Isaiah 63. It will be a bloody war. The two sickles of judgment will fall upon the Antichrist and his forces, and he will liberate the nation of Israel. Freedom is never easy, even for our Messiah who comes with a sword and with fire.
We are speaking specifically about spiritual freedom, and unfortunately many believers are living in captivity. There is no lasting deliverance method widely available, and as a result we have many believers living in chains, not receiving answers to their prayers. I personally believe it all begins with setting ourselves apart — putting the focus on God, getting on his divine appointments, his Sabbaths, his new moons, his feast days. You will receive more favor doing that than not. From there it moves into spiritual purification and cleanliness — what each of us must do individually.
This is a journey. This is not a devotional book in the casual sense. This is a purification journey, a refinement. As I said in the introduction video when we released the book, this is not going to be easy — nothing worthwhile ever is. But whatever level you are at in your walk with God, whether high, low, or somewhere in the middle, this will help you ascend on Jacob's Ladder. It will help you purify. It will help you cleanse. You will become more intimate with God, and he will show you favor. When I say it will be rough at first, I simply mean he is going to show you what you need to repent of. That is exactly why we are doing this — praying and saying, "Lord, what do I need to repent of?"
