We recently had the chance to talk with Rabbi Jonathan Cahn about the mystery of the Shemitah and beyond — part of the interview was in the March edition of the Daystar Partner Newsletter, but you can read the rest of the story right here!

Can you tell us briefly what the Shemitah is, and why it should be important to us?

During the Shemitah, all sowing and reaping came to a standstill. It was an economic Sabbath for an entire year. The Shemitah reminded the nation that all their blessings came from God. And when Israel turned away from God, the Shemitah came back at them, not as a blessing, but as a sign of judgment. It was when the mystery of The Harbinger was being revealed. And not just on Elul 29, but on the exact Elul 29 of the Shemitah, which only comes up once in seven years. After that, I began to see that the biblical mystery was even bigger.

It has affected everything from economic and financial collapses, world wars, global cataclysms, even the rise and fall of nations. At the same time though, it is wise to be ready for any eventuality.

The most recent Shemitah took place in Did the ancient mystery again manifest? Though some focused on dates and the blood moons, believing something had to happen at a set time, many missed the gigantic picture.

The central template of the Shemitah as it appears in the book is not simply of a Wall Street day crash, but of a long-term collapse. The Shemitah of produced the worst year for the stock market in seven years, or since — the last Shemitah! It saw stock markets around the world collapse, wiping out trillions of dollars from Wall Street to Shanghai.

It caused the collapse of world trade, commodities, the oil market, global production, the retail industry, profits, earnings, revenue, etc. And the impact of the Shemitah of has continued to shake the world into It was the year that America struck down the order of God, the biblical definition of marriage.

As it now stands, we are a nation progressing to judgment. We need to pray for revival. Every seventh year was the Shemitah. But every seventh Shemitah, or 49th year, ushered in a super Shemitah we know as the Jubilee.

During the Jubilee, the Sabbath of the land, slaves were set free, and everyone who lost their land or their ancestral possession was restored. The Jubilee was the year of restoration. This mystery has marked the time parameters of some of the most important events of modern times and end-time prophecy.

It not only marked the greatest shaking in world history up to that time, the First World War, but the restoration of the land of Israel to the Jewish people. Then, it marked the Six Day War in which the Jewish people were restored to their ancient city of Jerusalem. All of these things can cut both ways.

The Shemitah was a blessing for Israel when they followed God, but a judgment when they did not. So too, the prophetic Jubilee was ultimately a blessing for the people of Israel, but a loss for the Islamic powers that held the land or that warred with Israel. Both the Shemitah and Jubilee affirm the sovereignty of God over every part of life and that He is the true source of all sustenance and blessing.

For the world, it can mean shaking. The Jubilee was, in a sense, a second Shemitah, extending its effects for another year.

On the other hand for those who are in the will of God, all of this can be a blessing — a time of freedom, release, and restoration. And part of entering your possession in God is to fight the good fight, just as did the generation of Joshua. What would you say to encourage them today? It showed them all the more that God is in charge of everything, every detail, every bank account, every hair on our head.

What kind of impact do you think that has? I remember being in an Israeli hotel room and turning on the television set and the first thing I saw was Daystar! Anytime the Gospel is proclaimed, it has great impact. How much more so for it to be proclaimed in the land of Israel from which it came? Messiah said he would only return when his people turned to him. Getting the word of Messiah to the people of Messiah is a crucial part of the Great Commission, of end-time prophecy, and of the heart of God.

How important is that? You have joined us for a Daystar Israel Tour and travel to the Holy Land often. What would you say is the spiritual climate there today? There are more Jewish believers in Israel now than at any time since the Book of Acts. Just recently a whole list of Orthodox Jewish rabbis put out a declaration saying that Christianity is of God! We must continue to pray that their eyes be opened — that Messiah would come.

What does it mean to you to see Christians standing by Israel and supporting your people during this time? It means a lot. In the name of Jesus, Jewish people were persecuted, hunted down, and even killed.

Mark this date for potential disaster

The enemy knew that when the Jewish people come to Messiah, his battle would be lost. This is the best witness there could ever be. How much more does it bless the heart of God? Click here to learn more about Jonathan Cahn and see his most recent appearances on Daystar On Demand.
