We  were  told  that  the  Lord  is  set  to  give  people  feasting  experiences irrespective  of  the  prevalent  conditions.  And  that  He  is  set  to  follow  3 modes exemplified by 3 feasts He instituted namely: Passover, PentecostandTabernacles. On that first day, we considered the message freedom from the Passover where we x-rayed the events of the Passoveratthelandof servitudewhichtypified the True Passover at Calvary. These brought freedom to the affected parties/needy persons. On the second day, our message titled Fruitfulness from the Pentecost revealed the divine plan to make people prosper (fruitful)throughtheestablishmentofthefeast,whichwas a typeoftheadventoftheHolySpirit. He came to give power to multiply (Jn.15:16; Acts 1:8). Today, we shall be looking at FavourfromtheTabernacles/Booths. Topic: FAVOUR FROM THE TABERNACLES Subtext: Zech.14:16-19 The feast of tabernacles or booths is the 3^rd of these annual feasts instituted by the Lord (Exo.23:16) which holds during the fall (September to mid-October).  It is a 7 day festival that  celebrates the autumn harvest (in gathering of the fruits of the land), and commemorates God’s protection and provision during the 40 year wilderness wandering when they lived in temporary shelters (booths). So booths  were  built  as  a reminder  of  the temporary  dwelling  places, divine protection and provisionofmanna, water,guidance:firebynight, cloud by day, shade for the noon-day sun; when the Lord showed Himself as Jehovah Jireh (Gen.22:14). The Jews celebrated this feast of joy in Jerusalem with great rejoicing as     the fruits are gathered from the 15^th day of the 7^th month (Num.29:12). People of other nations were invited to the temple in Jerusalem to worship the God of Israel (2Chro.6:32-33; Isa.56:7; Matt.21:13). The feast is also prophetic, serving as a harbinger of the millennial reign when there will be the joyous last days ingathering of the nations (Zech.14:16). The Lord Jesus celebrated the feast of tabernacles during which He made the famous declaration on receiving the Holy Spirit (Jn.7:2,37-38). He teaches that we are to rejoice in the abiding presence of the Holy Ghost in our earthen vessels, as it gives a fore taste of the joy of the age to come (Isa.9:6,7; 11:1-9; 65:18-25; Matt.19:28-30). It was this kind of atmosphere that was manifested at the mount of transfiguration  that  made  the  apostles to  apply  for  immediate  retention of  the  venue  as  a new  residence,  not  minding  their  family  attachments (Lk.9:25-36; cp. Matt.8:14-15). It must be remembered that the manifestation of the glory is to a people that are obedient or faithful, while retribution follows the rebellious or stubborn (Zech.14:16-19). As such times, wild, and dangerous  creatures  are  tamed  or  benign;  longevity  is  enjoyed,  divine knowledge is escalated and Holiness unto the Lord is the watchword and song (Zech.14:21). Today, though the world is embroiled in socio-economic chaos, the watchman must stand out as an oasis, weathering every storm and coming out as a sign (Isa.8:12-18). The bushmayburnbutthebushwillnotbeconsumed(Exo.3:2), furnacesmaybeheatedtothefullestcapacitybuttheviolence ofthefireshallbequenchedsothatnosinglehairofthebody issinged(Dan.3:25-27).  At  such  times,  roots  grow  out  of  dry  ground, and deserts are converted to fruitful fields (Isa.32:15; 53:2); Divine favour  permeates  the  lives  of  the  faithful  which  makes  life  to  be  like  a dream (Ps.126:1-3). Let people align with the Lord and taste of the glory amidst the grueling situations that have perfused the world. The Lord is calling all to a season of feasts, and the only qualification is faithfulness in relationship with Him.
