FEAST OF TABERNACLES 2014

INTERPRETING AND DISCERNING THE TIMES

TIME: Wednesday Evening, October 8th - Thursday, October 16th

PLACE: NORTHWEST ARKANSAS

You shall hold a festival for the LORD your God seven days, in the place that the LORD will choose; for the LORD your God will bless all your crops and all your undertakings, and you shall have nothing but joy.   Deuteronomy 16:15 TNK

The Feast of Tabernacles is one of the "pilgrimage" festivals listed in Leviticus 23 in the Judeo - Christian Bible.  Besides 'Feast of Tabernacles', the festival goes by a number of other names: Feast of Booths, Sukkot (Hebrew for 'booths'), Feast of the Nations, and of course The Season of Our Joy! 

This festival looks back at the forty year period of time when the Israelites lived in the wilderness of Sinai.  During that time the Hebrew people were isolated from the rest of the world in an almost "millennial" setting.  They could see the Presence of God dwelling in their midst. He covered them daily with His cloud, and at night He warmed them with His fiery presence.  During their 40 year "wilderness experience" their needs were taken care of, neither their shoes nor their clothes wore out, and they were judged righteously in accordance to God's Torah by Moses and the judges.

The Feast of Tabernacles also looks forward to the 1000 year Messianic Kingdom when JESUS (Yeshua) will be dwelling in, and ruling from Jerusalem.  It will be a time when all the nations learn of the great things that happen when people follow the ways of the God of Israel.  As a consequence, shalom (peace) will spread out from the Great City and will eventually encompass the whole world.

A Wilderness Experience:  God's people are called to observe all of His festivals - Passover, Pentecost, and of course - the Feast of Tabernacles; but during the fall festival of Sukkot, we are also instructed to dwell in "booths".  Dwelling in booths - little huts that are nothing more than temporary shelters - reminds us that like Abraham, we are "sojourners" in this world; and so for this 8 day period we are to separate ourselves from the world.  The Feast of Tabernacles is to be our yearly "wilderness experience" where we can commune with God and each other in as much of a "millennial" setting as possible.  In a sense, it's our opportunity to "go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob . . ." so that He can "teach us His ways" whereby we can better ". . . walk in his paths".  (Isaiah 2:3)

SPIRITUAL MEANING: The spiritual significance and value of the Feast of Tabernacles cannot be measured by mere outward ceremonialism; it must be understood within the context of a spiritual feast designed to increase our spiritual walk and growth in the knowledge of Yahweh, God.

When we gather together in honor of the King, our Messiah Jesus, we will be increased in spirit, soul and body. As we honor Him we will experience His blessing upon our lives that will equip us for the journey ahead and our daily provision.

The blessing of our Father is found in the Cluster. As we gather together we become that cluster and the insights, revelations and epiphanies are imparted for the increase of each member in the body.

Friends, it is time for New Wine! As we gather together as a cluster unto the Lord, we will be crushed and transformed from being a simple cluster of grapes into New Wine, which will be poured out to the nations!
