Journey with Jesus ✨Unapologetic Disciples

“When the day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.” – Acts 2:1

The Feast of Weeks, also known as Shavuot in Hebrew and Pentecost in Greek, is one of the most powerful and prophetic festivals in the Bible. It marks a time of harvest, revelation, and Holy Spirit empowerment. As believers in Christ, this is a sacred opportunity to align with God’s appointed times and prepare our hearts for a fresh outpouring of His Spirit.

🌾 What Is the Feast of Weeks?

The Feast of Weeks was originally a harvest festival, celebrated seven weeks (or 50 days) after Passover. In Jewish tradition, it commemorates the giving of the Torah at Mount Sinai. In Christian tradition, it marks the coming of the Holy Spirit in Acts 2, when the Church was born.

This is not just a historical event—it’s a spiritual invitation. God desires to revive us, fill us afresh, and send us out in the power of His Spirit.

🔥 Why Fast Before Pentecost?

Before the Spirit was poured out, the disciples waited in the Upper Room with prayer, unity, and expectation. Today, we are called to do the same.

Fasting is a spiritual discipline that helps us:

• Quiet the noise of the world

• Renew our focus on God's voice

• Make room for fresh fire from heaven
