A Closer Look at a Divine Timetable
Then the Lord came down upon Mount Sinai, on the top of the mountain. And the Lord called Moses to the top of the mountain, and Moses went up… Exodus 19:20
This incredible moment in history is marked by the most remarkable act of YHWH. For the first time in the history of man Adonai will breach the gap between heaven and earth to deliver to Moses concrete physical evidence of His existence. Prior to this most incredible event YHWH has only revealed Himself to His servants by voice (for instruction) or fire (to consume a sacrifice). Their response to His voice is the only proof of their faith. Adam, Noah, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob had no tangible evidence that could be archived and preserved for others to attest to. Keep this in mind as I deal with approaching Pentecost experience.
In my previous blogs (see Purim to Passover) I discussed how Purim represented a hidden threat against the Jews and Passover was the known threat against the firstborn in the land. At the time of these Jewish holidays we saw the somewhat innocuous viral threat (Purim), escalate to a global catastrophic nightmare (Passover). Since that time we have transitioned to the month Iyar in the Jewish calendar. In the exodus story the entire month of Iyar was spent traveling through the desert to the foot of Mt. Sinai. It was during this time that the children of Israel became thirsty and arrived at the bitter waters of Marah. This is where Moses was instructed by Adonai to cast a tree into the waters and they became sweet. Then the Lord spoke to them and told them that if they would hear His voice and follow His commands that the diseases that came upon the Egyptians would not come upon them. (Ex. 15:23-26) In verse 26 the acronym in Hebrew for the phrase “the Lord who heals you” is the IYAR. So the month of Iyar should be understood as a time of healing of every disease; natural and spiritual. For the body of Christ, this should be a season of healing and restoration, not fear and confusion. While the world is grappling over ventilators and vaccines, we must exhibit healing and wholeness in every area of our lives.
As we have closed out Iyar and have now welcomed Sivan, we move from a time of healing to blossoming as a spring flower. Sivan represents a blossoming season for the saints. This is why it was so important to be healed and made whole at this time since this crisis is more about the deconstruction of faith than the infection of a virus. The Father is positioning us to become His physical evidence in the earth so that His glory can be revealed to those who have lost faith. The timing of this could not be better for the saints than it is right now. Pentecost is not a Christian holiday for wearing white, going to church, speaking in tongues and dancing around a building. YHWH could not be that shallow!
The Feast of Weeks as it is known in the Old Testament is 50 days (Jubilee) from Passover. It is the time of Israel’s arrival at the foot of Mt. Sinai, where Moses would ascend the mountain and for the first time in human history G-d and man would breach the barrier between heaven and earth. Exodus 19:20 makes it very clear that this is a moment like none other. YHWH would for the first time take a physical object and transform it into a spiritual artifact. Moses would return to the people with physical evidence that the G-d who has only spoken in the past has now written His directives and made them known to His leader and thus His people. This is the true Pentecost.
Jesus walked the earth for 40 days after His resurrection appearing several times to His disciples and speaking with them “of things pertaining to the kingdom.” (Acts 1:3) Notice that He did not speak to them regarding the church, organized religion, or their culture. He spoke to them about the manifestation of rule and reign of G-d in the earth realm; so that when the Holy Spirit baptized them, they would know how to execute the Father’s business. In this the glory of G-d would be revealed on earth through jars of clay. This is a parallel experience of Moses at the top of Mt. Sinai.
So as we approach Pentecost (May 29, 2020) I see the several things having been fulfilled. 3 super moons since February on 3 specific Jewish holidays, the introduction of the year 6000, and a divinely imposed Jubilee. As I write this article today I tremble with awe to think of how Adonai will reveal His glory in the earth. What I am sure of is that I want to be positioned to be a participant and not a spectator when He breaches the barrier again. This has already been a year to remember for many carnal/natural reasons. It is already historic for reasons that are unprecedented. However, for the saints we look towards a more significant spiritual event to be revealed.
As Moses was commanded to consecrate the people, I write this article so that you will be distinguished among the masses. So that you will revere and respect this season as YHWH’s time. So that you will prepare to present yourself to His Majesty the King (wash your clothes – Ex. 19:10). So that you will not be ignorant of the ways of Adonai. So that you will experience the transformative power of the Holy Spirit in your life on this Pentecost. YHWH will breach the barrier just so that you will have tangible evidence that will sustain you for the rest of your life!
Shalom, NB

My GOD!
Let me be a participant and not a spectator when you breach the earth again!
Thank you, Apostle! A true revelation of what GOD is looking to do in the earth. Amen!
Awesome blog Apostle. I’m excited and look forward to being a part of what God is doing on the earth. All praises to Almighty God!
Excellent teaching.
I’m excited about what YHWH is doing in this season. It is truly a convergence of His mighty works. As we all eagerly wait in expectation of the fulfillment of the Feast of Weeks (Pentecost), let us be mindful of Christ’s words to ‘wait for the promise of the Father’ (Acts 1:4). The season of the outpouring of dunamis power is upon us!
Shalom Man of G-d
So Grateful and Thankful for the Word of G-d and the wisdom that you pour out to the people of G-d that we may grasp hold of the manifestations of what is springing forth at such a time as this.
Going from a Season of Healing and Wholeness to a Season of fulfillment. A Day of Pentecost. The experience to perceive and know the season. A season of expectation and Fulfillment, a sweet and gentle flower blossoming. 🙏💕🙏

Apostle what an awesome word. I am so excited about what is taking place and thank you for hearing from God. Finally I understand Pentecost better. I am waiting on God to shower us The body of Christ (the ones who believe) with his divine will and power through Holy Ghost wisdom, knowledge and understanding.
Thank you Apostle Nathan Byrd, sir, for your obedience in giving us these revelations from Father. At one point, G-d always felt like a YHWH Who couldn’t be touched. Who didn’t care whether or not every area of your life prospered and showed evidence of G-d’s Divine Power and Presence in your “very world of existence.” No one ever taught G-d’s covenant with man to this degree Father has divinely appointed and anointed you to speak to us. I’m now looking forward to experiencing YHWH’s Divine manifestations in every area of my life. Before, just as long as I was alive, I was alright with that. However, there was something nagging at me that there was more to experience, let alone, much more to be behold from Father in my life. I never thought that I was worthy of having anything good, so I accepting anything that I was taught as golden; nevertheless, it wasn’t golden. These Words from the LORD through you to us is causing me to see that G-d has a more intimate, close relationship with Himself He desires for me to experience in every way, every area of my life. It’s settling in my heart that POP POP longs to give me the best life with Himself than I ever imagined. Now, it’s starting to resonate in me that Father wants nothing but true success and life more abundantly in all areas of my life individually and our lives together as a one flesh family in the Kingdom. We were never called to manifest church attendance, church affiliations, or church agendas, from what I’m learning through you from Heavenly Father. We are destined by Father, at this time, to demonstrate the Glory and majesty of the KINGDOM OF OUR HEAVENLY FATHER. Thank you Apostle Byrd. My life is being transformed in ways you don’t understand right now, but Heavenly Father is doing it in me, and He’s doing it in us all. We will arise and be that generation our HEAVENLY FATHER has called us to be.
