🔥 Revi’i 21, 6027 AA 🔥 – Three Years Hidden, Then Poured Out

Scripture Focus: - “Three years it shall be forbidden to you; it shall not be eaten. In the fourth year all its fruit shall be holy, a praise to YHVH.” — Vayiqra (Leviticus) 19:23–24

There is a hidden law built into the very soil of Yisrael — that no tree may bear fruit for three years, and in the fourth, it is offered to YHVH in Jerusalem. Only in the fifth does the tree enter its sustainable harvest cycle.

This is not just agricultural — it is deeply spiritual.

You Are That Tree

Some of you have been “planted,” but hidden. Three years of pruning, growing, strengthening roots. No visible fruit. No outward harvest. No invitations. No recognition. Just silence and unseen growth.

Then suddenly — the fourth year comes. You are not eased into service. You are poured out. Sent to the battlefields, the frontlines. Called to burn holy fruit in sacred fire before YHVH. It's not your “ministry” yet — it’s still His offering.

Then Comes the Fifth Year…

Only after the fourth — the intense outpouring — comes the sustained calling. The fifth year. The balanced season. The appointed role. The rhythm of fruit and tithe and rest and purpose.

If you feel like you're being held back — you might still be in your Orlah years. If you're feeling spent — you may be in your holy fourth. If you're just now stepping into something lasting — you may be entering your fifth.

Call to Action:

• Don’t rush your fruit-bearing season — roots first, then fruit.
• Recognize which spiritual year you’re in — and honor its boundaries.
• When He says now, don’t hold back. You’re not being wasted — you’re being offered.
