The Chanukah miracle of light revealed God afresh as the One who provides for His people. He is the supreme gift giver.
Time and again, He shows that nothing is impossible for Him, and He cares for us. Through the miraculous birth of Yeshua, God came to dwell on earth among men. Through the divine act of the His death on the tree, Yeshua set us free. By the miracle of the Holy Spirit imparted to all who believe, God is with us always, and we know His law in our hearts.
On this second night of Chanukah, we rejoice over our God of Wonders, who works miracles in our lives and gives us the gifts of new life, His Spirit within us and the promise of eternity with Him.
Messianic Jewish Chanukah Blessings
Place two candles in the chanukiah tonight, setting them in the holders from right to left. As you light the Servant Candle (Shamash), recite the Chanukah blessings:
Blessed are You, LORD, our God, King of the universe, who has sanctified us with Your commandments and has given us Yeshua the Messiah, the light of the world.
Blessed are You, LORD, our God, King of the universe, who has performed miracles for our ancestors in those days at this time.
Candle Lighting
Using the Servant Candle, light the Chanukah candles in the opposite direction from which you placed them in the holders. Light them from left to right. Return the Shamash to its place. Let the candles go out on their own, and they should burn for a least half an hour.
