Beloved, have you heard? The Feast of Tabernacles is tomorrow!
The Feast of Tabernacles was the most joyous of all the feasts. It took place in the seventh month, five days after the Day of Atonement when the sins of the nation of Israel were purged and their communion with God re-established. God told Moses:
Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, The fifteenth day of his seventh month shall be the feast of tabernacles for seven days unto the Lord. On the first day shall be an holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work therein. 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 service work therein.
Leviticus 23:34-36
This feast was celebrated every year when all their crops had been harvested and their storehouses were filled to overflowing with the abundance God had blessed them with: corn, wheat, oil and wine.
In the sixth year, God poured upon them such a blessing that their storehouses were filled with enough for them to live off of for three years. As they entered the seventh year … the year of the Lord’s release … they celebrated the Feast of Tabernacles with joy, and rejoiced before God in thankfulness to Him for His great blessings upon them.
The people were instructed to REJOICE before the Lord along with their family, all their servants, and all those within their household because of the abundance God poured out upon them.
Moses said:
Thou shalt observe the feast of tabernacles seven days, after that thou hast gathered in thy corn and thy wine: And thou shalt rejoice in thy feast, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy manservant, and thy maidservant, and the Levite, the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, that are within thy gates.
Seven days shalt thou keep a solemn feast unto the LORD thy God in the place which the LORD shall choose: because the LORD thy God shall bless thee in all thine increase, and in all the works of thine hands, therefore thou shalt surely rejoice.
Deuteronomy 16:13-15
In His covenant with Israel, God had promised to command His blessings to come upon them. It was His will to prosper and bless them with the abundance of the land. His purpose in establishing the Feast of Tabernacles was so that His people would acknowledge Him as their Source of supernatural provision, and come before Him with rejoicing and thanksgiving.
Throughout the generations, He wanted the children of Israel to remember how He had provided for them in the wilderness when He released them out of Egyptian captivity and they dwelled in tents.
Now that you have read more about this joyous occasion, will you be excited to celebrate it, as well, tomorrow?
