Leviticus 23:33-44  And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,  (34)  Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, The fifteenth day of this seventh month shall be the feast of tabernacles for seven days unto the LORD.  (35)  On the first day shall be an holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work therein.  (36)  Seven days ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD: on the eighth day shall be an holy convocation unto you; and ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD: it is a solemn assembly; and ye shall do no servile work therein.  (37)  These are the feasts of the LORD, which ye shall proclaim to be holy convocations, to offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD, a burnt offering, and a meat offering, a sacrifice, and drink offerings, every thing upon his day:  (38)  Beside the sabbaths of the LORD, and beside your gifts, and beside all your vows, and beside all your freewill offerings, which ye give unto the LORD.  (39)  Also in the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when ye have gathered in the fruit of the land, ye shall keep a feast unto the LORD seven days: on the first day shall be a sabbath, and on the eighth day shall be a sabbath.  (40)  And ye shall take you on the first day the boughs of goodly trees, branches of palm trees, and the boughs of thick trees, and willows of the brook; and ye shall rejoice before the LORD your God seven days.  (41)  And ye shall keep it a feast unto the LORD seven days in the year. It shall be a statute for ever in your generations: ye shall celebrate it in the seventh month.  (42)  Ye shall dwell in booths seven days; all that are Israelites born shall dwell in booths:  (43)  That your generations may know that I made the children of Israel to dwell in booths, when I brought them out of the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God.  (44)  And Moses declared unto the children of Israel the feasts of the LORD.

It’s a new day and I’m thankful to be alive to live in times such as these. You may wonder how I can be thankful for the chaos and hatred we are experiencing. I am thankful because we are part of the best generation and time in which to be alive! At this point in time, the Church who is alive at the time Israel became a nation (1948), will not experience death but will be Raptured when Christ comes in the clouds to get His Bride! That’s enough to make you shout, “Glory”!!

Today is our last Feast, the Feast of Booths or Tabernacles; in Hebrew it is called “Sukkot.” Its actual definition is a temporary dwelling or hut. This is a Festival where the Jews remember the 40 years their ancestors dwelled in the desert. The Lord God protected and provided for Israel during their journey in the desert. Remembering all that God had done for them is the focal point. These temporary huts are taken down at the end of the Feast and rebuilt the next year; in memory of Israel moving the tabernacle from place to place in the desert. This tabernacle was with them throughout their entire journey and God was with them that whole time.

Israel’s “temporary dwelling” is still true today. Once they enter into the Millennium, their Messiah will no longer be dwelling temporarily with them but for all eternity! Prophetically, we read in Micah 4:1-7 that Messiah will dwell among His people once again after the Second Coming. All remaining believing Jews will see their Feast of Booths come to a reality when they enter the Millennium Kingdom and their Messiah, Jesus Christ, will be among them! Hallelujah! Jesus will once again “tabernacle” with them! Praise the Lord! Can you imagine living during the Millennium and living like we were in the Garden of Eden? The thought of this brings joy to my heart! 😀

This is the end of our series and I hope you have enjoyed it! Don’t these symbolic points of these Feasts excite your spirit? Do you know the Lord Jesus Christ, personally or do you only know of Him? He is the true sinless Lamb of God! I want to be sure that anyone who reads the posts on this blog can know beyond a shadow of a doubt that they are going to Heaven. Have you received Christ as your Saviour? If no, your sins are not covered by His sacrificial offering of Himself. You have not been redeemed by His blood. It is no coincidence that God has placed you here for such a time as this so that you may be saved if you are not already.
