The Feast of Tabernacles

Well I purposely did not write on the Day of Atonement because the LORD did not give me anything to write. There seemed to be a lot to process during that Day and the days surrounding it which gave me much to think about but hard to put into words.

One thing that is very clear and apparent is the fact that it is a day of heaviness if one is truly afflicting their souls. But is that through fasting from food?

It appears as though physical fasting can play a role in afflicting one's soul, since it definately afflicts the flesh! But there is much more to it than that.

I would suggest reading not only Leviticus 23, but Isaiah 58 as well.

But here we are already half way into the Feast of Tabernacles. The last great feast of God's year and a perfect picture of spending eternity with HIM! The command to rejoice before Him for seven days has become evident this year. Will we choose to let the enemy rob us of that joy or will we choose to rejoice in YHWH!

Bless the LORD, oh my soul!
