Who fears God’s voice? Meaning of trumpets in Revelation, Torah and Prophets

3 angels with trumpets

“Everyone who is of the truth hears My voice” (John 18:38 NASB). The Day of Blowing Trumpets (Yom Teruah, aka Rosh haShanah) is an appointed time that comes every year, but it’s also a prophecy of a future appointed event. Are you ready? These 10 Days of Awe between Yom Teruah and Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement) were given to us as a reminder to prepare our hearts to welcome God’s voice and the coming of God’s Anointed, Yeshua the Messiah (Jesus the Christ), rather than run from them in fear of judgment.

When God calls you, move without hesitation

The reason for the high holy day of Yom Teruah, the Day of Blowing (Trumpets) aka Rosh HaShanah (New Year), is not as obvious as all the others. As we “look under the hood,” we find that it calls us to accept godly change without hesitation.

Song of Moses, song of the redeemed (Deuteronomy 32)

Being “Torah-observant” is not a “holier than thou” pursuit of perfection. Rather, it’s about listening to the Creator, observing where our lifestyles diverge from Heaven’s instructions and seeking return to the LORD’s ways. That restoration is possible by the perfect Atonement Offering, the Mashiakh (Christ). That’s the lesson of the Torah reading הַאֲזִינוּ Ha’azinu (“listen”) and a good preview of Yom haKippurim (Day of Atonement).

Judgment Day: Day of the LORD is a day of awakening

Yom Teruah (Day of Blowing [Trumpets]) has a number of nicknames, such as Rosh haShanah (New Year). Regardless of what you call it, Yom Teruah has a special purpose in God’s calendar. It’s a day of remembrance, a day of gathering, a day of awakening and a day of offerings. But mostly, it’s the Judgment Day. It’s a day when the wicked are judged and the righteous are vindicated by the Mashiakh (Messiah).

Apostles Paul and Yokhanan wrote a lot about this day, as did the prophets.

Yom Teruah (Feast of Trumpets) and the trumpets of Revelation

Yom Teruah (Feast of Trumpets) is not just about being raised from the dead or being changed but being with the Son of God and sharing in what the Son of God is going to do. We will be a part of it. All power and authority on the Earth will be in the Messiah’s hands, because we know what kind of person the Messiah is, because we trust Him. But as the book of Ezekiel tells us, we should always be diligent and prepared for His coming.

Hearing God’s trumpeted messages via Yom Teruah (Feast of Trumpets)

A dramatic 16:9 digital artwork in a layered paper-origami style illustrates the prophetic theme of Yom Teruah (Feast of Trumpets). The left side of the image is dark and stormy, with towering black clouds, lightning, and large crumbling stone idols breaking apart into fragments, symbolizing judgment and the fall of false worship. On the right, brilliant golden sunlight pours through a dramatic opening in the clouds, illuminating a majestic Jerusalem-like city with walls, towers, and a shining temple. An angelic figure in the upper-right corner blows a long silver trumpet toward the earth. In the foreground, crowds of paper-crafted worshippers raise their hands toward the radiant city, expressing hope, repentance, and celebration. A river winds through the landscape from the darkness into the light, visually connecting judgment with restoration. Large title text on the left reads: “Hearing God’s Trumpeted Messages via Yom Teruah (Feast of Trumpets).” The overall composition contrasts darkness and light, conveying a biblical message of tribulation, divine warning, and ultimate redemption.

The lesson of the Feast of Trumpets is a clarion call to Messiah Yeshua. We, as believers in Yeshua, are waiting to hear and respond to a certain trumpet sound, the last trumpet sound. That is what we wait for.

The Messiah says the last trumpet will be great, powerful sound. There is hope for us that we can rejoice that He is showing us and teaching us that He is the resurrection and the life. We live in the hope that He will restore Israel to her former glory and, according to the book of Acts, He will restore the Gentiles who have joined the House of Ya’akob (Jacob) too.

Studies in Prophets and Writings

This is a 50,000-foot-high view of the fall “feasts to the LORD” (Lev. 23:2) — Yom Teruah (Trumpets, aka Rosh Hashanah), Yom haKippurim (Atonement) and Sukkot (Tabernacles). We’ll look at what they are and what meanings are stacked on top of each other as memorials of the actions of the Messiah past, present and future.
