Thanksgiving – The Wolf in Turkey’s Clothing?
1st Day, Month 9, 1st
sun-day November 23rd, 2025
Greetings in the name of Father Yahuah and His Son Yahusha Ha’Mashiach! I hope this quick post finds you in the grace and peace of Father Yahuah!
We have rolled past the celebrations of death and days of the dead into another season, often called the “holiday season.” It is a time when many people get geared up to celebrate Thanksgiving, Kwanza, Christmas and New Years. We will cover each of these very briefly to just show the outer layers of the true meanings of the holidays. If this is your first season that you are not celebrating, there are plenty of resources on youtube and other platforms that will show you in depth the satanic and evil ruachoth that are truly behind these days and the celebrations/rituals that go along with them. If you need help finding them, drop a line in the comments section or send me an email.
When I first came into the truth of the pagan holidays that our society celebrates, I still celebrated thanksgiving because I thought that surely Father Yahuah doesn’t mind us taking a day to offer thanksgiving to Him for the innumerable blessings He bestows upon us. Right? Well after a couple of years of thinking that it was okay to celebrate, Yahuah kept bringing me back to the following scriptures:
Vayiqra (Leviticus) 18:2-5 – “Speak unto the children of Yashar’el, and say unto them, I am Yahuah Elohaykem. After the doings of the land of Mitsrayim, wherein ye dwelt, shall ye not do: and after the doings of the land of Canaan, whither I bring You, shall ye not do: neither shall ye walk in their ordinances. Ye shall do My judgments, and keep Mine ordinances, to walk therein: I am Yahuah Elohaykem. Ye shall therefore keep My statutes, and My judgments: which if a man do, he shall live in them: I am Yahuah.”
Mattithyahu (Matthew) 15:3 – “But He answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of Elohiym by your tradition?”
**Throughout the scriptures, the children of Yashar’el followed after the practices of the heathen nations they were in, or practicing what Yahuah had delivered them out of bondage from.
So for the first couple of years, I celebrated thanksgiving but then Yahuah asked me why would I celebrate a day that did not specifically give thanks to Him nor was it commanded by Him to be celebrated? I had no answer for these questions and I knew then that I could no longer celebrate this day of giving thanks because I couldn’t tell who or what the people that originally celebrated it.
Once I accepted these facts and I knew in my heart that it wasn’t a Feast Day of Yahuah, then Yahuah revealed to me that this was originally a harvest festival that has been celebrated for millennia and that it was to thank various deities for the success of that year’s harvest and to gain favor for the next year’s growing season. A simple google search of holidays similar to thanksgiving around the world will show this.
With that being said, I tried to show this to various “truth” groups I have fellowshipped with and they wouldn’t hear it and kept celebrating. One leader even told me that he and his family celebrated it because there is archaeological evidence that the Native Americans may have celebrated it before the Europeans arrived because they were of the lost tribes of Yashar’el and it was to celebrate Sukkoth. I told him that I still couldn’t celebrate it because Father Yahuah had told me not to. I didn’t let him know that I am a member of a State recognized tribe and that I still wouldn’t celebrate it even if that was true.
Funny thing is, when you may have a little doubt caused by unintended or intended misdirection, Father Yahuah will clear away that doubt and confusion if you seek diligently for His Truth. That’s when I came across the fact that sealed the deal forever on the turkey day, the proof that the lost tribes, and probably Native Americans being included, did celebrate an abominable feast that was supposed to replace Sukkoth when the kingdom was split, after king Shalomah’s whoring after other elohiym, under the first king of the house Yashar’el, Yarov’am:
1st Melekiym (Kings) 12:27-28 – “And he made an house of high places, and made priests of the lowest of the people, which were not of the sons of Leviy. And Yarov’am ordained a feast in the eighth month, on the fifteenth day of the month, like unto the feast that is in Yahudah, and he offered upon the altar. So did he in Beth’el, sacrificing unto the calves that he had made: and he placed in Beth’el the priests of the high places which he had made. So he offered upon the altar which he had made in Beth’el the fifteenth day of the eighth month, even in the month which he had devised of his own heart; and ordained a feast unto the children of Yashar’el: and he offered upon the altar, and burnt incense.”
** The king ordained a counterfeit feast to keep the people from going to Yerushalayim and worshipping Yahuah during His Feast of Aciyf (harvest) also know as Sukkoth.
Do not let any ruler or teacher of the world nor any ruler or teacher of the scriptures tell you that it is okay to celebrate any of these holidays, no matter how appealing they sound or how close to something of Elohiym’s they appear to be. Unless you can find it in Torah, specifically Vayiqra 23, do not celebrate them. There is one exception to this and we’ll cover it soon.
Mattithyahu (Matthew) 7:15-16 – “Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?”
As the world gets geared up for this “magical holiday season“, take great honour in the fact that Father Yahuah has set you apart from this world simply by the fact that you are here reading this. I pray that you choose to walk in His set-apart way and that Yahuah gives you peace and strength to continue in the set-apart way during this time when everyone else is partying and celebrating the feast of this world which will soon be no more.
Yahusha (Joshua) 1:9 – “Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for Yahuah Elohayka is with thee whithersoever thou goest.”
May Father Yahuah continue to bless you in your walk with Him and His Son Yahusha Ha’Mashiach in the straight and narrow way that leads to eternal life!
Shalom,
