Pinksteren / Shavuot

Celebrating God’s Holy Spirit poured out - empowering His Church.

Pentecost, Shavuot, Feast of “Weeks” Today

Shavuot (Feast of Weeks) is celebrated by Jewish people as a time of first fruits and the giving of the Torah at Mount Sinai. Fifty days after Passover, it also marks the outpouring of the Holy Spirit in Acts 2. Devout Jews from many nations were gathered in Jerusalem when the Spirit came—fulfilling Joel’s prophecy and launching the Church with power.

Believers celebrate Pentecost as a reminder of God’s faithfulness and empowerment to live boldly. In Jewish tradition, the Book of Ruth is read during Shavuot. Ruth, a Gentile, demonstrated covenant love toward Naomi and embraced the God of Israel. Her story foreshadows God’s redemptive plan that includes both Jew and Gentile in one new man (Eph. 2:15).

Gebedsfocus:

Love and Loyalty – Ruth 1:16–17: Lord, increase our love for the Jewish people. Teach us to walk in loyalty and compassion like Ruth.
Revelation of Jesus as Redeemer – Ruth 2:12: Jesus, reveal Yourself to Jewish hearts as their Kinsman Redeemer. Let Your love shine through us. Just as Joseph was revealed to his brothers as a Hebrew, their brother, may Jesus be revealed to the Jewish people as their Messiah and elder brother. Genesis 45
Presence and Revival Fire – Acts 2:3: Holy Spirit, fill and purify Your people. Set us ablaze to provoke Israel to jealousy for You, the Holy One.

SCHRIFT FOCUS

Acts 2:1–4
Joel 2:28–32
Ruth 1:16–17
Romans 11:11

Reflectie:

How can I tangibly demonstrate God’s covenantal love to the Jewish people this week?
In what ways is my life bearing witness to Yeshua, drawing both Jews and Gentiles toward His redemptive grace?
