Today is Fools day, why was it named Fools day? How did it start? Is it also related to the Bible?
#2 The Jewish calendar and this one starts in April which is called the Month of Nissan of Abib ??this one starts in April coz it was in April that lsrael came out of Egypt
#3Creators’ calender that started when light appeared in Genesis 1:3
The month of Abib which is April became the first month of the Jews.
This day came ye out in the month Abib. Exodus 13:4.
Thou shalt keep the feast of unleavened bread: thou shalt eat unleavened bread seven days, as I commanded thee, in the time appointed of the month Abib; for in it thou camest out from Egypt: and none shall appear before me empty handed????
So the whole month of April according to the bible is the only month that you cant appear before God empty handed.
You can’t meet a prophet without an offering in this Month, you can’t fast without an offering, you can’t start prayer without an offering
That’s why it’s believed that when Saul went to meet Samuel it was in April that why they said we can’t go meet the Prophet without an offering it wasn’t a daily thing but an April thing because it’s a month of exodus in every area of life.
Exodus in spiritual dry seasons, prophetic blindness, prophetic deafness, Sickness, pain, broke,anti marriage and all kinds of negatives.
According to God our Month as Christians starts today, because January and February was added to the original calendar. Exodus 23:15. Deutoronomy 16:1 says Observe the month of Abib, and keep the passover unto the LORD thy God: for in the month of Abib the LORD thy God brought thee forth out of Egypt by night. It is obvious that Passover is to be observed in the first month of the year which is April and not January
Leviticus 23:5 In the fourteenth day of the first month at even is the Lord’s passover that’s why Easter is around that Time
So Jesus was crucified in April and his crucifixion brought redemption of any kind
Coz of April he gave himself as a seed of all times. That’s why they where told ? you shall kill a lamb and dont break its bones coz the lamb was Christ. And they ate it in the month of April and with bitter herbs which a typifing how Christ life was going to be bitter on the cross. So the whole month of April starting from 1st to last day carries the life of Christ.
But now understand why 1st April was called fool’s day
since we now know that in the same April April Christ was crucified…
April fool’s day in
Italy, France and Belgium is called April’s fish day and not fool’s day Since nobody was to appear before God empty handed..in this month, Jews would give money in form of coins and the coin had a sign of a fish on the other hand and a sign of Caesar’s face on the other hand.
Coin had fish and caesars on two sides
This is the same coin Jesus took and asked whose face is this and the said caesar then he said give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar…
So understand this, People would come and bless the Lord with the Coins and they would surrender them to Moses.
In order to catch a fish, you have to fool it with some bait in form of a worm and once the fish bites the bait, we say the fish has been fooled
So they would catch fish and sell it to get coins with the fish and since they couldn’t appear before God empty handed to Moses…they would take those coins money to Moses and that act they would call it April’s fool or fish Day
If fish is caught by being fooled through a bait so man also must be fooled to come to Jesus and when he comes then he sees his power but coming,you have to fool him.
That’s why the Bible says a fool said in his heart there is no God coz the devil fooled him.
To win a fool u have to be a fool enough to fool him. That’s why God is a Fool.
1 Corinthians 1:25-31 King James Version (KJV)
25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
The foolishness of God means God is a fool
1 Corinthians 1:25-31 King James Version (KJV)
25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
26 For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called:
27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;
28 And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are:
29 That no flesh should glory in his presence.
30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:
31 That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.
Vs 27 God chose because you are also a fool to confound the wise.
So fool’s day is actually our day we who are God’s fools. So man also must be fooled to come to Jesus and when he comes then he sees his power but coming,you have to fool him. Jesus when sending the 70 he said go and be wise has a serpent. In other words be cunning, Find relevant people in the city and use a bait to catch them.
That’s how April’s fools day was born
