  1. Blow the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in My holy mountain!  Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble;  (Jer. 4:5)  for the day of the Lord is coming, for it is at hand:  (Obadiah 15)
  2. "Now, therefore," says the Lord, "Turn to Me with all your heart, with fasting, with weeping, and with mourning."  (Jer. 4:1)
  3. So rend your heart, and not your garments; return to the Lord your God,  (Gen. 37:34;   Ps. 34:18;   Ps. 51:17)  for He is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness; and He relents from doing harm.  (Ex. 34:6;   Hos. 14:1)
  4. Who knows if He will turn and relent, and leave a blessing behind Him  (Jer. 26:3;   Hag. 2:19)  -  a grain offering and a drink offering  (Is. 65:8;   Joel 1:9;   Joel 1:13)  for the Lord you God?
  5. Blow the trumpet in Zion, consecrate a fast,  (Num. 10:3)  call a sacred assembly;

  7. Let the priests, who minister to the Lord, weep between the porch and the altar;  (Matt. 23:35) let them say, "Spare Your people, O Lord, and do not give Your heritage to reproach, that the nations should rule over them.  (Ex. 32:11-12)  why should they say among the peoples, 'Where is their God?'"  (Ps. 42:8)
  8. "And it shall come to pass afterward (Ezek. 39:29), that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh (Zech. 12:10); your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions;  (Prov. 1:23;   Is. 54:13;   Acts 21:9)
  9. And also on My menservants and on My maidservants I will pour out My Spirit in those days.  (Gal. 3:28)
