Counting the Omer to Pentecost

The Awesome Secret of

Counting the Omer to

Pentecost!



What is all this business about counting the wave sheaf offering, and counting the days to Pentecost?

Most churches are thoroughly confused on this issue, and

totally miss the point of this COMMANDMENT of God!

What is the truth? What is the hidden mystery of the omer?

What is an omer anyway, and why should we be concerned

about it? Here is vital new truth which is a KEY to spiritual

overcoming and enduring to the end!

William F. Dankenbring



One of the most potent and powerful keys to being an overcomer and enduring to the end is overlooked by the majority of Christians because of rejection of the Old Testament and rejection of the Laws of God in favor of pagan superstitions. Most churches forget that Jesus

said that man shall not live by bread alone, but by EVERY WORD that proceeds out of the



mouth of God, which is the Bible (Matt.4:4; Luke 4:4). Jesus said the scripture cannot be broken

(John 10:35). Paul said all scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable for doctrine,

instruction, reproof, correction that the man of God may become perfect thoroughly furnished

unto good works (II Timothy 3:16-17).



One of these overlooked commands of God is to count 50 days (7 complete weeks) for

yourselves, starting on the second day of Passover; the day the wave sheaf is brought to the

priest for the Omer offering on Nisan 16.

Churches are even confused over what day this count

should begin, are ignorant of its true spiritual meaning, and fail to observe it at all! You Shall COUNT . . .

God declares, You shall then COUNT seven complete weeks after the day following the

Passover holiday when you brought the Omer as a wave offering; (Lev.23:15).



According to Jewish understanding, Sefirat Ha Omer counting the Omer refers to

the forty-nine days from the second day of the Passover festival, and recounts the journey of the

Israelites from Egypt, through the desert wastes, to the revelation of God at Mount Sinai, when

the Commandments of God were set forth from heaven, and God made a Covenant with His

people Israel, and married His bride.



This step-by-step journey through the wilderness was a time of trial and testing. God

revealed to His people the Sabbath day (Exo.16), and satisfied their hunger with manna from heaven. When they complained of thirst, He caused water to spring forth. When the Amalekites

attacked, He intervened for them and helped them fight off the vicious hordes (known as the

Hyksos in Egyptian history).



Each day the Israelites are commanded to count the Omer, as they experienced their journey from captivity (Egypt) to freedom (Sinai).

Notice that there are actually TWO commands in counting the Omer! First, we are

commanded to count off the weeks, week by week. Then we are commanded to count off the

DAYS, till we come to fifty the fiftieth day being Pentecost!

Leviticus 23

The Feast of Firstfruits

9And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 10Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye be come into the land which I give unto you, and shall reap the harvest thereof, then ye shall bring a sheaf of the firstfruits of your harvest unto the priest: 11And he shall wave the sheaf before the LORD, to be accepted for you: on the morrow after the sabbath the priest shall wave it. 12And ye shall offer that day when ye wave the sheaf an he lamb without blemish of the first year for a burnt offering unto the LORD. 13And the meat offering thereof shall be two tenth deals of fine flour mingled with oil, an offering made by fire unto the LORD for a sweet savour: and the drink offering thereof shall be of wine, the fourth part of an hin. 14And ye shall eat neither bread, nor parched corn, nor green ears, until the selfsame day that ye have brought an offering unto your God: it shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
