Seichel or Emunah? שיכל ואמונה
The time of Redemption is always at hand. We are expected to believe by the biding of G-d that Mashiach is on the way. And although humanly we can always specualte that the time is right, we can never foretell Mashiach’s coming to any date, for as the redemption of Mitzrayim took 430 years, the final plagues took but a few months (see Shemot 12:41) so Mashiach’s coming will be, quick, מָרַן אֲתָא! Emunah in Mashiach’s coming provokes us to tell others concerning the Good News of Yeshua Melech HaMashiach, His death and resurrection. Seichel (gut feeling) on the other hand has to do with “street wise,” going by what we see, and not by Emunah (Faith). Emunah provokes us to learn directly from the holy Hebrew Scriptures about Mashiach is, and believe in His holy work (see Yeshayahu 52:7-53:12). Seichel on the other hand is based not on the spiritual level where here Mashiach is determined by what we wish Mashiach to be (although it will not agree with the Hebrew Scriptures most of the times).
If you really want Mashiach to be revealed soon, study your Hebrew Scriptures concerning our Blessed Hope. We should not be afraid to learn concerning. Mashiach the Hope of Israel, not the Fear of Israel, Fear not! We want Mashiach Now!
משיח, משיח, משיח עכשיו
Mashiach, Mashiach, Mashiach Now!
