Dear Friend,
Please accept this email as my personal invitation for you to step into the Presence of Jehovah with me during the coming Feast of Tabernacles.
There are moments in life when the burden seems too heavy, the trial too painful, and the need too great. Perhaps you have walked through one of those seasons. A loved one may be facing a crisis. You may be carrying a financial burden that seems impossible to overcome. You may need healing in your body, peace in your heart, wisdom for a difficult decision, or simply the strength to take another step.
But then, in one glorious moment, you enter into the presence of Jehovah. And everything changes.
The sorrow that seemed overwhelming is replaced by His comfort. The fear that gripped your heart melts in His love. The burden becomes lighter. Faith rises. Hope returns. Strength is renewed. There is something about being in the presence of the Lord that nothing else in this world can provide. That is why I cherish the worship song we sing in our partner conferences here at the Legacy Center:
In the presence of Jehovah … God Almighty, Prince of Peace… Troubles vanish; hearts are mended … in the presence of the King.
The Feast of Tabernacles is a timeless invitation to remember that God desires to dwell with His people. This year, the Feast of Tabernacles begins at sunset September 25, and continues through nightfall on October 2.
During this sacred season, I am inviting you to join me, along with partners from around the world, for a special online worship experience:
IN THE PRESENCE OF JEHOVAH
I am preparing a special 30-minute worship service from our ministry conferences and celebrations of God’s Feasts. Starting at 7:00 PM (ET) on September 25, I would love for you to join us online at mcwe.com/tabernacles for a time set apart simply to worship, seek the Lord and experience His presence. I pray that it will become a sacred moment for you and your family. Because in His presence, everything changes.
When circumstances have stolen your joy, His presence restores…
➢ Peace… When anxiety has filled your thoughts, His presence reminds you that you are not facing tomorrow alone.
➢ Hope… When discouragement has taken root, His presence reminds you that your story isn’t finished.
➢ Provision… When your barrel is empty, He fills with a continual supply.
➢ Healing for wounded hearts… There is comfort for those who grieve.
Friend, join me as we come together before the Lord with thanksgiving … to worship Him for His faithfulness … and to step into the very presence of Jehovah.
DON’T APPEAR BEFORE ME EMPTY HANDED!
There is a remarkable instruction concerning the appointed feasts in Deuteronomy 16:16–17. God instructed His people not to appear before Him empty-handed. Instead, each person was to bring an offering according to the blessing the Lord had given them.
God wasn’t asking His people to give because He was lacking anything. God doesn’t need our money. Everything already belongs to Him. Our offerings are acts of worship. When we give, we are saying: “Lord, everything I have comes from You.”
I trust You … I honor You … I am grateful for Your goodness … And I believe You will continue to provide for me.
That is why I am asking you to prayerfully consider presenting a special Feast of Tabernacles Offering as we celebrate the very presence of God. Let your offering become a tangible expression of thanksgiving for God’s presence and faithfulness in your life. And let it become a seed for the joy of God’s presence and a demonstration of your faith in His provision for every need you are facing.
Would you consider giving £50, £75, £100 … or whatever amount the Lord places upon your heart? Please don’t give simply because I have suggested an amount. Ask the Lord. Ask Him what your Feast Offering should be. Then give it joyfully, knowing that your gift is an act of worship.
And because I want you to go deeper into the significance of this special feast, I would like to send you The Mystery of the Tabernacle by Rabbi Kirt Schneider as my special thank-you gift when you respond with a generous Feast of Tabernacles Offering of £25 or more.
This inspiring book can help you discover God’s blueprint for intimacy with His people. It explores the prophetic meaning of the Tabernacle and its individual elements, shows how Jesus fulfills the symbols and patterns found within it, and points you toward a deeper understanding of God’s desire to dwell with you.
I believe it will enrich your celebration of Tabernacles and encourage you to pursue a lifelong journey into the fullness of the joy found in God’s presence.
Friend, this Feast of Tabernacles season is your season to step into the very presence of Jehovah. Open your heart in worship. Thank Him for His provision, healing comfort and strength. And prayerfully place your Feast of Tabernacles Offering before Him.
For when we come into His presence, we discover… He is Jehovah, Provider, Healer, Comforter, Strength … and He is still the Prince of Peace.
May this Feast of Tabernacles be your experience into the very presence of God. During this holy season, may you find the joy and the pleasures of His abundant life and the most meaningful celebration of God’s presence you have ever experienced.
Your partner and friend,
