Feast of Tabernacles.jpg

"Come before Me at MY appointed times and seasons at the place I shall choose. (Deut 16:16) and I will appear unto you. I want to abide in you and make my glory known unto you; your praise makes a place for Me.”

In the winter of 2004, the Lord appeared to me in a vision. He began to pour into my spirit and said write it down. Habakkuk 2:2-3

"Write the vision and make it plain on tablets. That he may run who reads it, for the vision is yet for an appointed time: but at the end it will speak, and it will not lie, though it tarries, wait for it: because it will surely come, it will not tarry."

 The following words came forth and I wrote as I was inspired by the Holy Spirit. It came in the form of a mandate; not just to me, but for Ohio and the nation.

 

As He spoke to me about the Tent of David and the 24/7 assignment to worship, I soon could see that this place was the heart of the Vision.  

 The Lord began to pour into my spirit His thoughts concerning these sacrifices of praise that He had commanded in the following words: 

 "I have not been glorified in your public streets, your highways, and byways as the other Gods.

Worship ME!"

 Glorify ME!  I AM HOLY!   I AM the King of Glory!

Am I not the ONE who made you after MY image?

 Am I not the ONE who holds back the ocean and tells it how far it can come to the shore?

 Am I not the ONE who ordered the heavens?

Praise ME!  Make a joyful noise unto Me!

 Make a sacrifice of thanksgiving unto ME!Make a place of Habitation for MY Presence!

 You are My Sanctuary!

Praise ME in the Dance

 Let everything that hath breath, Praise ME!"I long to abide IN you, IN your Temples, IN your cities, IN your fields, and outside the walls of your manmade sanctuaries!

 Give Me the calves of your lips; give Me your bodies as a living sacrifices of praise, that I might still your enemies, and set your captives free.

Come before Me at MY appointed times and seasons at the place I shall choose.  (Deut 16:16) and I will appear unto you.  I want to abide in you and make my glory known unto you; your praise makes a place for Me."

 Set a single eye upon ME during your 24/7 days of praise and let not one moment fall to the ground, for your relentless praise will pierce the darkness and My glory will fall.  An open heaven will appear before you and an entrance will be made through praise. You will be able to enter into the 'Open Gate' into the heavenlies.


I was given the next phase in details as I saw it.

We were to erect a replica of the 'Tabernacle of Moses' like the one in the wilderness.  We were to build all the furnishings and put them inside to show and tell the people so that they might have understanding.  We were to place outside fencing all around these articles or furnishings and the tent just like it was when Moses set it up. It was to be done according to the same pattern that was given on the mount.   We were to build the tent or covering for the Most Holy Place and in it, put the Ark of the Covenant.  These of course are not the real items, but a type of them to show the New Testament saints.
He showed me the Most Holy Place and the veil that separated it from the Holy Place or Inner Court.  There were 3 articles of furniture in the Holy Place, the Lampstand or Candlestick, the Table of Shewbread and Golden Altar of Incense. The Outer Court was where the Brazen Altar of Sacrifice and the Brazen Laver  were to be placed, it was also called the congregation of the saints.

 In 2007, the first of this type of celebration, we were to show the people the pattern and as the Lord chooses, we were to teach on each article and give the spiritual meaning for each, these articles are called types and shadows which point to the true. 

What we were to do next?

At the beginning of each new day, which was the evening, we were to sound the shofars and call them together from all over the 74-acre park for the evening processional. We were to gather at the opening of the Tabernacle of Moses each evening as the new day began.

 While shofars blasted continually and as the people would gather in, a prophetic enactment would begin to take place.  King David would appear with his 4 priests, with dancing and shouting and rejoicing they came into the Tabernacle in our sight and entered into the Most Holy Place. The four priests that David brought with him picked up the Ark of the Covenant put it upon their shoulders and began to carry it out of the Tabernacle of Moses; the processional had begun!

I heard music and dancing and shouting coming out of the saints as they processed with King David and the Ark to the TENT of DAVID where the 24/7 worshipers have been offering up spiritual sacrifices.  These saints who offer these spiritual sacrifices daily, interchange positions every 2 to 4 hours and do it seamlessly.   All forms of pageantry, such as banners, and flags were to be brought out to glorify God. This is what God showed me and this prophetic act tells the story of the transition from Old Covenant to New Covenant.   It shows us that it is first the natural and then the spiritual…from law to grace.

His orders for this celebration were to begin on the first day of the Feast of Tabernacles and not stop even for one moment until the 8th day; which is the Water Libation Ceremony.  The Water Libation is a ceremony that the priest of Israel made unto the Lord annually at this same time, to offer up celebration, thanksgiving and praise for the former and the later rain for the wonderful harvest. The week will come to conclusion after this has all taken place.  The Lord has, and always will be, pleased at the observance of His Feast of Tabernacles.

 

So to bring understanding of all that would happen on the grounds that week, we offered teachings throughout the daily workshops and preaching of the word through various forms of the worshipping arts during the entire week. We fellowshipped with our families and walked in love and unity with each other, laying aside our religious differences.


The ‘why’ of this vision

We are commanded in Deut. 16:16 and many other passages, to separate for one week a year and celebrate Him in this greatest of all feast.  The Lord has commanded it and He will not repent!  The children of Israel would come out away from their homes for 7 days and build themselves sukkots or small coverings and live in them as obedience unto the Lord, this would continue year after year.  The Lord commanded it so and now He is demanding it of His 'Spiritual Israel' spoken of in Galatians 3, who walk by faith and have received the promises through faith and as the seeds of Abraham. Why would the Lord want this?’, you may ask.  Come out and hear the teachings and get understanding of why the Lord has chosen The Feast of Tabernacles to raise up the Tabernacle of David.

 This call, this Vision is to be sent out to ALL worshipers; to ALL believers.
