YESHUA OUR SUKKAH

“In that day I will raise up Tabernacle of David that is fallen and close up its breaches, and I will raise up its ruins and I will build it as in the days of old” (Amos 9:11 _{Lamsa’s Aramaic}).

The Hebrew word for “tabernacle” in Amos 9:11 is sukkah. In this Kingdom Day, God Himself is raising up the Sukkah Tabernacle of David.

When Moses brought God’s people out of Egypt, they appeared to be vulnerable and weak in the natural, like the frail appearance of a sukkah (booth, tent). However, their secret (hidden weapon) was that they enjoyed the safety and security of the Holy One of Israel. God Himself was their refuge.

God included this reminder in a couple of His Biblical Feast – notably, the Feast of Tabernacles (Booths), which is also called Sukkot (plural form of sukkah).  Not only is the Feast of Tabernacles a rehearsal for the Messiah’s Second Coming, but the booths that He asks His people to dwell in for seven days are a tangible picture of freedom from bondage as well as true impenetrable security in God.

Sukkah means “to cover,” as in protection. Our security, our protection, our sufficiency, our shelter, our refuge is found in the One who “in the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God… And the Word was made flesh and dwelt [tabernacled] among us” (John 1:1,14). Yeshua is our sukkah. In Him alone we are safe and secure.

In this Kingdom Day, “the Branch of the Lord” who is Messiah Yeshua (Jesus Christ) will protect His people and reign from Mount Zion: “In that day shall the glory and honor of the LORD shine forth … And the LORD will create upon every dwelling place of Mount Zion, round about, a cloud by day, and the smoke and shining of a flaming fire by night; for the glory of the LORD shall be a shelter over all. And there shall be a shelter for a shade in the day time from the heat, and for a place of refuge, and for a shelter from the storm and from the rain” (Isaiah 4:2-6 _{Lamsa’s Aramaic} ).

TABERNACLES – TIME BEYOND TIME

Sometimes you will hear that the Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot) is an eight day feast. Technically, the last day of Sukkot is Hosanna Rabbah, which is the seventh day of the Feast of Tabernacles. Please refer to https://sapphirethroneministries.wordpress.com/2017/10/09/tabernacles-the-great-salvation/. However, there is an eighth day of assembly called Shemini Atzeret.

“On the eighth day you shall hold a solemn gathering (atzeret); you shall not work at your occupation” (Numbers 29:35). The rabbis interpret this verse to mean that God asks all who make a pilgrimage for the Feast of Tabernacles (go up to Jerusalem either physically or spiritually) to tarry (atzeret) with Him one additional day. That’s how much the Lord our God loves to spend time with His people.

Therefore, Shemini Atzeret is the day after seven or the eighth day. Seven measures a complete unit of time; thus, the eighth day is the day after time. It represents both the promise of redemption and the actual moment of it.

Can you hear Him? Is He telling us: Come away My Beloved. Remain with Me (atzeret) an extra day – a time beyond time.

TABERNACLES – THE GREAT SALVATION

The Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot) completes the sacred festivals of the seventh Biblical month. As mentioned earlier, Sukkot is called the “Season of Our Joy” after a season of repentance (teshuvah) and redemption (Yom Kippur). The joy of Sukkot was so great that it became known simply as “The Feast.”

If you want to wish someone a Happy Sukkot in Hebrew, simply say “Chag Sameach!” (Happy Holiday). The Hebrew word “chag” comes from the Hebrew root “chagag,” which means to move in a circle, to march in a sacred procession, to celebrate, or to dance. Earlier we spoke of the water pouring ceremony, and the priests circling God’s Altar in a procession singing Psalm 118:25 for six consecutive days. Please refer to https://sapphirethroneministries.wordpress.com/2017/10/06/celebration-of-water-pouring-feast-of-tabernacles/ for more information.

On the seventh day of Sukkot, instead of the priests circling God’s Altar, the people circled the Altar seven times. As all of God’s people circled the Altar, they cried out: “Save now!” seven times. This is why the seventh day of the Feast of Tabernacles is called Hoshanah Rabbah – The Great Salvation or The Great Hosanna.

When Yeshua (Jesus) was on earth, the water drawing/pouring ceremony experienced a quantum leap. The name Jesus went by, as He walked the earth, was the Aramaic name “Yeshua.” Yeshua in Hebrew means salvation. So when Isaiah 12:3 was quoted: “As it is written, ‘Therefore with joy shall you draw water out of the wells of salvation,” its literal fulfillment stood before Is-real’s eyes. Then Yeshua spoke John 7:37-38 on Hoshana Rabbah – “If any man thirst, let him come unto Me, and drink. He that believes on Me, as the Scriptures has said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.”

In this Kingdom Day, the Great Hosanna is taking another quantum leap. Not only is the Head of the Body of Christ pouring out the jewels of the rivers of living waters, so is Christ’s Mature Body. It’s time for the springs of the great deep to burst forth, and the floodgates of the heavens be opened.

Chag Sameach!

ALL WHO ARE THIRSTY COME! Hoshanah Rabbah (The Great Salvation)

The seventh day of Sukkot (i.e. The Feast of Tabernacles) is called “Hoshana Rabbah” in Hebrew, which literally means the great hosanna or great salvation or numerous praise.

During the Feast of Tabernacles, Isaiah 12:3 was often quoted, as it is written, “Therefore with joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation.” Sukkot is known for being “the season of our joy.”I’d like to first point out that Jesus had an Aramaic name when He literally walked the earth. This Aramaic name was Yeshua. In Hebrew, Yeshua means “salvation.” Second, I’d like us to examine the water pouring ceremony related to this festival. Even though the water pouring ceremony is not in the Torah (first five books of the Bible that Yeshua says if we believe in Moses and what he wrote about the Messiah, then we would believe in Salvation (Yeshua) – John 5:46-47), I bring it up because Yeshua stood on the day of Hoshana Rabbah during Sukkot and said, “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to Me and drink. He who believes in Me, as the Scripture said, ‘From his innermost being [heart] will flow rivers of living water.’ ” (John 7:37-38 NAS).When Yeshua proclaimed, “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to Me and drink,” the water pouring ceremony was different than the previous six days. The previous six days the priests circled God’s Altar in a procession singing Psalm 118:25 “Save now, I pray, O Lord; O Lord, I pray, send now prosperity.” But on the seventh day of the Feast of Tabernacles, it was the people, not the priests, which circled the Altar seven times, as they cried, “Save now!” seven times. This is why the day is called Hoshanah Rabbah – the Great Salvation. Spiritually speaking, there’s a link between water and the pouring out of His Holy Spirit. Remember when Yeshua told the woman at the well to drink of living water (John 4:7-14)? When Is-real circles His Altar today, we return to the ancient place of Isaiah 44:1-3: “Yet hear now, O Jacob My servant, And Israel whom I have chosen. Thus says the Lord who made you And formed you from the womb, who will help you: ‘Fear not, O Jacob My servant; And you, Jeshurun, whom I have chosen. For I will pour water on him who is thirsty, And floods on the dry ground; I will pour My Spirit on your descendants, And My blessing on your offspring.”So… literally on this day God’s people circled His Altar and cried out “Save now! Send prosperity now!” seven times. Therefore, rise up today and cry out for your spiritual breakthrough! Rise up Spirit of the Living God! Be poured out beyond measure! Rise up His people turn your hearts fully to HIM! And receive His goodness flowing…

TABERNACLES – HAPPINESS OF THE HOUSE OF THE WATER-DRAWING

In our previous article, we journeyed to the place of the daily water-drawing ceremony that used to take place in Jerusalem when the Temple existed. Please refer to => https://sapphirethroneministries.wordpress.com/2017/10/06/celebration-of-water-pouring-feast-of-tabernacles/ 

Water is a major theme for the Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot), and so is light. In fact, people who celebrate Sukkot experience a glorious convergence of these two elements during this Feast of our Joy.

After the daily water-drawing ceremony, there was an incredibly special evening ceremony called the “Happiness of the House of the Water-Drawing” (Simchat Bet Ha’Shoevah). The priests of the Lord put on a Light Show by literally dancing, like David danced, among four towering menorahs. Simchat Bet Ha’Shoevah As the Levites sang and played music, these priests got lost in their euphoric Torch Dances. This wild worshiping went on every evening during Sukkot. It was so spectacular that the Hebrew Sages proclaim: “He who has not seen the rejoicing at the Simchat Ben Ha’Shoevah, has never seen rejoicing in his life” (Sukkah 5:1).

These Torch Dances literally lead us to the next Biblical Feast – The Feast of Lights Hanukkah – during which time Yeshua (Jesus) proclaimed: “I am the Light of the World” (John 8:12). Also during Hanukkah, Yeshua used the water from the Pool of Siloam to heal a man born blind (John 9). In this Kingdom Day, Yeshua will once again heal a man – One New Man of Jew and Gentile in the Messiah – that have been born blind, so “the work of God should be manifest in Him” (John 9:3). If you are interested in knowing more about the Biblical Feast of Hanukkah and how it’s about the Church becoming the Bride of Christ. I wrote about it extensively here => https://www.amazon.com/Blazing-Wine-Hanukkah-Bridal-Restoration/dp/1634430026.  It’s available for free on Kindle.

Blessings! Let there be light!!! And may the happiness of the House of the Water- Drawing be yours!!!

ART: Menorah by Carmen Cohen

CELEBRATION OF WATER POURING – FEAST OF TABERNACLES

The Hebrews have been told: “He who has not seen the rejoicing at the place of the water-drawing has never seen rejoicing in his life.”

Did you know that Yeshua (Jesus) declared John 7:37-38 on the seventh day of the Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot) during the water pouring ceremony? “In the last day of the, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto Me, and drink. He that believes on Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water” (John 7:37-38).

The water pouring became a focus of the joy that the Torah commands for Sukkot. On no other festival were the people literally commanded to be joyful, and as a result Sukkot became known as “the season of our joy,” just as Passover is “the season of our freedom.

The water pouring ceremony at the Feast of Tabernacles was the only water poured out onto God’s altar. This water was literally called “Yeshua” – the waters of salvation. Jesus proclaimed “If anyone drinks of Me” in God’s Temple, which demonstrated that He was (and still is) these waters of salvation. When Yeshua did this, He literally spoke the greatest teaching of Moses. To get to heaven, you must go through these waters to get there. This was the very place where Peter preached on the day of Pentecost (Acts 2). It was also the place where the Rabbis used to teach of the coming Messiah.

When the Temple of God stood in Jerusalem, the water pouring ceremony was performed every day of the Feast of Tabernacles. The priests of the Most High God were divided into three divisions during this daily special ceremony for Sukkot. One division for the Altar, one for the willows, and one for the waters.

The first division was the priests on duty for that festival. They would slay the sacrifices found in Numbers 29. Prior to the first group’s ascension of the Altar, a second group of priests went out the Eastern Gate of the Temple and went to the Motzah Valley (where the ashes of the red heifer were dumped at the beginning of the Sabbath). There they would cut willows. The willows had to be 25 feet in length. After this, they would form a line with all the priests holding a willow. About 25 or 30 feet behind this row of priests, allowing room for the willows, would be another row of priests with willows. So, there would be row after row of the willows.

The whole road back to the temple … was lined with pilgrims as they went to Jerusalem to celebrate the festival as they were commanded by God to do. Sukkot (Tabernacles), along with Shavuot (Pentecost) and Pesach (Passover), were known as the pilgrimage festivals (Deuteronomy 16:16).

There would be a signal and the priests would step out with their left foot, and then step to the right [cadence], swinging the willows back and forth. Meanwhile a third group of priests, headed by the High Priest, went out the gate known as the Water Gate. They had gone to the pool known as “Siloam” (John 9:7, 11), which means “gently flowing waters.” There the High Priest had a golden vase and drew the water known as the living water and held it in the vase. His assistant held a silver vase containing wine. Just as the priests in the valley of Motzah began to march toward Jerusalem, the willows made a swishing sound in the wind as they approached the city. The word wind and spirit in Hebrew are both Ruach. Therefore, this ceremony was symbolic or representative of the Holy Spirit of God coming upon the city of Jerusalem.

As each of the party reached their respective gates, a trumpet (shofar) was blown. Then one man would stand up and play the flute. The flute represents the Messiah. The flute player is called “the pierced one.” The flute is pierced, and Yeshua was pierced during the crucifixion.

The flute player led the procession. The pierced one blows the call for the wind and the water to enter the temple. The priests from Motzah walked in a cadence swishing the willows in order to come into the temple. This group then circled the altar seven times. The priests that were slaying the sacrifices are now ascending the altar, and they begin to lay the sacrifices on the fires. The High Priest and his assistant ascend the altar and all the people of Israel are gathered into the courts around there. The people start singing, “With joy we will draw water out of the well of salvation” (Isaiah 12:3). The High Priest takes his golden vase and pours it contents on one of the corners of the altar where the horns are. There are two bowls built into the altar. Each bowl has a hole in it. The water and the wine are poured out over the altar, as the priests who had the willow start laying the willows against the altar, making a sukkah. They set the willows upright on the side of the altar, forming a wedding canopy or chupah, which is a picture of the Mature Body of Christ coming together who are made up of organic matter. These individuals lay down their lives as living sacrifices of fire to form one body – the dwelling place of God. The ceremony of the water drawing points to that day when, according to the prophet Joel, God will pour out His Spirit upon all flesh (Joel 2:28-29).

As mentioned earlier, the water drawing ceremony took on a new dimension of meaning when Yeshua attended the Feast of Sukkot (Tabernacles). On the seventh day of the feast – Hoshana Rabbah, which literally means, “the great hosanna, the great salvation” – the festival activities were different from those of each of the six previous days when the priests circled the altar in a procession, singing Psalm 118:25. On the seventh day of the feast, the people circled the altar seven times. That is why the day is called Hoshana Rabbah, as all the people cried, “Save now!” seven times.

This is when the man who was sent – Yeshua – stood up “and cried out, saying, “If anyone is thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. He who believes in Me, as the Scriptures has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water”(John 7:37-38 NKJV) on Hoshana Rabbah.

May the rivers of living water flow uninhibited in and through you!!!

TABERNACLES – THE FEAST OF INGATHERING

The Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot) marks the final ingathering of all produce for the year before winter sets in. That’s why Sukkot can also be called Hag HaAsif – The Feast of Ingathering. “And the Festival of Harvest of the first fruits of your labor that you sow in the field; and the Festival of the Ingathering at the close of the year, when you gather in your work from the field” (Exodus 23:16 TJB, English Tanach).

It’s tremendously significant that the Feast of Ingathering is the final harvest of a year (i.e., an extended period of time). The final harvest is intimately connected to the Feast of Tabernacles also being known as the Season of Rejoicing. We are literally in that season right now: “When Hashem (God) will return the captivity of Zion, as we will be like dreamers. Then our mouth will be filled with laughter and our tongue with glad song. Then they will declare among the nations, ‘Hashem had done greatly with these.’ Hashem has done greatly with us, we are gladdened. O Hashem, return our captivity like springs in the desert. Those who sow will reap in glad song. He who bears the measure of seeds walks along weeping, but will return in exultation, a bearer of His sheaves” (Psalms 126:1-6 TJB).

Not only is it time for the greatest harvest ever seen by mankind, but it’s time for the manifestation or harvest of His sweetest fruit of all — the Bride of Christ. “And HE said, ‘The Kingdom of God is as if a man should scatter seed on the ground, and should sleep by night and rise by day, and the seed should sprout and grow, he himself does not know how. For the earth yields crops by itself: first the blade, then the head, after that the full grain in the head. But when the grain ripens, immediately he puts in the sickle, because the harvest has come” (Mark 4:26-29 NKJV).

Behold, the season of the harvest of the One New Man in Christ (its fullness – Metatron) and the Bride of Christ. Come forth laborers in His fields! His fields – the nations – are white and ripe! The Spirit and the Bride say: “Come!”

TABERNACLES – HARVEST OF WINE & OIL

There are three great harvest feasts in the Bible. The Feast of Tabernacles – Sukkot – is the third, final and biggest harvest season of Israel’s agricultural year.

During the annual harvest cycle, Is-real experiences a picture of the Lord as the God of increase. In the spring of the year at Passover, which is the first feast of the first month, an offering of first fruits of barley is waved before the Lord as a prophetic declaration that God will provide for the coming year. The First Fruits Offering was accompanied with a burnt offering of one male lamb (Leviticus 23:12). Significantly, the Feast of First Fruits (Bikkurim) is the literal day that Yeshua (Jesus) rose from the dead as the “firstborn among many brethren” (Romans 8:29).

The second harvest feast in a Biblical Year is the wheat harvest of Pentecost fifty days later during the third month. Two loaves of bread are waved before the Lord accompanied with a sacrifice of seven lambs (Leviticus 23:17-18). Pentecost is the literal day when the Torah (first five books of the Bible) and the Holy Spirit in the upper room was given. This portrays where true worshippers worship the Father in spirit and in truth (John 4:23-24).

The third harvest ripens around the Feast of Tabernacles. This vital harvest in God’s Land produces the oil and wine. “Fullness” is connected to this harvest of grain, wine and oil as well as the heave offering – terumah (Numbers 18:27). Yeshua is our heave offering – a wholehearted contribution. The Body of Christ will follow the Head in all ways including the terumah. Our Beloved Messiah taught that the terumah offering that Moses gave in Numbers 18:25-31 was essentially a willing heart. Therefore, the congregation of the Living God is formed by having a willing heart or being wholehearted in having a heart to do the perfect will of the Father.

TABERNACLES – HIS DWELLING PLACE

The temporary dwelling places (sukkot) built during the Feast of Tabernacles remind God’s people of the clouds of glory that surrounded Is-real during their wanderings through the desert on their way to the Promised Land: “And the Lord was going before them in a pillar of cloud by day to lead them on the way, and in a pillar of fire by night to give them light, that they might travel by day and by night” (Exodus 13:21 NAS). 

It was a miraculous life. As His people journeyed through the wilderness, their clothes never ever wore out. Image that for a moment. Forty years of walking in a hot and dry land, and your shoes look and feel perfect. It sounds like a heavenly foreshadow of “who is this that comes up from the wilderness, leaning on her Beloved?” (SS 8:5).

Everyone who desires to be part of His Pure and Spotless Bride has wilderness experiences. Everyone. Notice how there is a fairly quick transition from the High Holy Days – Days of Awe – with their somber mood of repentance and judgment to one of rejoicing and celebration. Tabernacles with its command to build a sukkah (plural sukkot) and make it their home is not called “The Season of Our Joy” for nothing. Rejoicing and joy is intimately connected to the Bride of Christ: “I will greatly rejoice in the LORD, My soul shall be joyful in my God; For He has clothed me with the garments of salvation, He has covered me with the robe of righteousness, As a bridegroom decks himself with ornaments, And as a bride adorns herself with her jewels” (Isaiah 61:10 NKJV).

It is not a coincidence that the period between the Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur) and the Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot) is the same period that marks the beginning of the construction of God’s Tabernacle – the Mishkan – sanctuary in the desert (Exodus 25:8-9). According to Hebraic Tradition, Moses ascended Mount Sinai the second time for 40 days and nights to receive the second set of tablets. He carried them down the mountain as a sign of God’s forgiveness for the sin of the Golden Calf on Yom Kippur. These Ten Commandments were in actuality a marriage contract with Is-real. The following day Moses told the people about God’s instructions for building a Dwelling Place (Exodus 35-36:1-7).

Therefore, the various iterations of God’s Dwelling Place are connected to His marriage contract. What was promised at Sinai is being realized in our day. In this Kingdom Day, we as His Living Stones, are being built into the greatest Dwelling Place of all – the New Jerusalem where: “Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people, and God Himself shall be their God… Come here, I will show you the Bride, the Lamb’s wife” (Revelation 21:3,9b).

WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY OPENS FOR THE FEAST OF TABERNACLES

Did you know that there is a divine right alignment when we give according to our Heavenly Father’s heart during the three major Biblical Feasts: Pesach (Passover), Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement) and Sukkot (Feast of Tabernacles)?

According to some Hebrew sources, on Sukkot if you give a freewill offering according to the leading of the Lord, it is counted for one year and a reflection of what our Father pours on you based on this offering. Think of it like a window opens over your life from Heaven.

Personally, it causes me to reflect about what truly counts in life.

With each Biblical Feast, a new portal (or heavenly window) opens that enables a greater ease than “normal” to enter and inherit His Kingdom in a greater measure here on earth, as in heaven. These are special grace(s) related to the themes/ principles of each feast.

Yeshua (i.e. Jesus) has not done away with Biblical Feasts, He fulfilled them (and is still fulfilling them through His Body until His second coming and beyond) – See Matthew 5:17. Any feast that is articulated in Scripture is a Biblical Feast. The Feasts of the Lord are the seven listed in Leviticus 23. Our Beloved told me last year: “Just as the Spirit of the Living God has seven flows that manifests in nine fruits and gifts, so do the Feasts of the Lord.” (Please refer to https://sapphirethroneministries.wordpress.com/2017/03/09/feast-of-esther-is-a-bridal-feast/) I could speak about this subject forever, and I’ve written about it extensively after studying it full-time for over 15-20 years. Here’s a short post that explains more: https://sapphirethroneministries.wordpress.com/2017/10/04/back-to-the-future-basics-yeshuas-biblical-feasts/

Probably most significance to this particular post is:

[1] The Feast of Tabernacles (i.e., Sukkot) is a Feast Forever. God’s people will celebrate this one and at least two others eternally (See Leviticus 23:41).

[2] The primitive root for His Feasts in 2 Chronicles 8:13 is the Hebrew word ya-ad. Significantly, this is the term used for Adam knowing Eve intimately. Ya-ad has a most profound message in regard to the Lord’s Biblical Feasts. It implies that yood-hey-shin-vav-hey is summoning His people to meet Him at His stated time, so He can direct us into a certain position to engage us for marriage (i.e., to be betrothed). HIS FEASTS ARE ALL ABOUT US BEING/BECOMING HIS PURE AND SPOTLESS BRIDE.

[3] In regard to a freewill offering to honor Him during one of His Feasts. Deuteronomy 6:5 tells us: “You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.” Series of three in Scripture show people how to mature into the image of Christ (I like to say “move unto perfection”). They are listed from easiest to hardest. The hardest way to love Y-H-Shin-V-H is with all your strength. It’s the Bridal form of loving God. If you break “strength” down, it basically means loving God with all your resources. Here’s an article about it => http://wp.me/p158HG-sS.

Biblical Feasts are something that the enemy has stolen from most Christians, and we must seize the day and take it back for Bridal hearts everywhere!
