THE FEAST OF TABERNACLES IS UPON US ....

SUKKOT! - Hebrew for the Tabernacles. Sundown, October 15, 2016 - Historically, it was a time of remembrance for the children of Israel to commemorate the 40 years of wandering in the wilderness, living in flimsy tent-like dwellings.  So, what does this have to do with New Covenant Believers in 2016?  Sukkot is the rehearsal for the Bridal Wedding Reception at the end of the age and an appointed season for spreading the Good News!

The Feast of Tabernacles has many symbols and moving parts.  There are eight days to this Feast, and one of the most prophetic and timely facets to this event is the "Water Pouring Ceremony," which occurs on the 8th day, the final day of the Festival.  

In the Gospel of John 7:37-39, our Messiah Yeshua fulfills the prophecy of the Water Pouring Ceremony at the Feast of Sukkot (Tabernacles) and at the very moment the high priest was conducting the actual event.  Yeshua is our High Priest and the only One who could fulfill the prophecy:

"On the last and greatest day of the Feast, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, 'Let anyone who thirsts come to Me and drink.  Whoever believes in Me, as the Torah has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them.'  By this He meant that the Spirit, whom those who believed in Him were later to receive.  Up to that time, the Spirit had not been given, since Yeshua Jesus had not yet been glorified."
