Sabbath Year

Since last year, I have been receiving personal revelation concerning the Sabbath year mentioned in the book of Leviticus 25:1-7
" For six years you shall sow your field, and for six years you shall prune your vineyard and gather in its fruits, but in the seventh year, there shall be a Sabbath of solemn rest for the land, a Sabbath to YHWH. You shall not sow your field nor prune your vineyard. You shall not reap what grows of itself in your harvest, or gather the grapes of your undressed vine. It shall be a year of solemn rest for the land. The Sabbath of the land shall provide food for you.."

Concerning this Scripture verse, Holy Spirit began to speak to me and remind me how this is my seventh year running, in the Lord. It was for this reason that I had not had any job or ministry related opportunities come up this past year, until this point. On August 19th I shall be completing my seventh year and shall enter into my eighth year in the Lord. A year of new beginnings.
I have been enjoying this season of rest, yes a whole year! It was difficult in the beginning to be not involved in any kind of ministry or church activities. But as I realized the season that I'm in, I began to learn to rest in it.

And now, I am in a process of taking up a business/ ministry opportunity in India which starts around August 19th!  Unbelievable timing of Elohim Almighty..!!!
