"Sukkot was given to Israel. So why would Gentile believers observe it? That question deserves an honest answer. Torah gives Yehovah’s appointed times to Israel. But Scripture does not teach that Gentiles who come to Israel’s Messiah form a separate people with a separate faith. Paul tells Gentile believers to remember what they once were: excluded from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers to the covenants of promise. Through Yeshua’s blood, they have been brought near. They are now “fellow citizens with God’s people and members of God’s household” (Eph 2:11–19). Romans 11 gives another picture. Gentile believers are branches grafted into Israel’s olive tree. We do not replace the natural branches, and Yehovah does not uproot Israel to plant a Gentile tree. We are grafted in and begin sharing in the nourishing root. That belonging has a shape. We have not been brought near merely to admire Israel’s Scriptures and appointed times from a distance. Sukkot itself includes the outsider in its rejoicing. Deut 16:13–15 names the foreigner alongside the household, the Levite, the orphan and the widow. The wider Torah establishes one standard for the native-born and the outsider dwelling among Israel (Num 15:15–16). Lev 23:42 specifically tells native-born Israelites to dwell in sukkot. We should acknowledge that no verse says, word for word, “Every Gentile believer today must build a sukkah.” But that verse should not be separated from the rest of Scripture. Zech 14:16–19 even looks ahead to people from the nations going up to worship the King and celebrate Sukkot. Taken together, we believe Gentile believers who have been grafted into Israel should observe Sukkot, including dwelling in a temporary shelter as circumstances allow. The sukkah is not just decoration. It is the act Yehovah gave to preserve the memory of Israel’s wilderness journey and His care for them. We do not build one to become Jewish, replace Israel or earn salvation. We build because Yeshua has brought us near. We now share in Israel’s Messiah, promises and hope. And when Friday sunset comes, we will step into that temporary shelter and remember. Addendum: By “Gentile believers,” I mean people from the nations who believe in Yeshua the Messiah. Scripture itself speaks of “Gentiles who have believed” (Acts 21:25). The phrase describes their background, not their standing as outsiders. Through Messiah, they are grafted in and are fellow citizens with God’s people (Romans 11:17; Ephesians 2:19). I use this familiar term because many Christians reading this are only beginning to learn about their connection to Israel. I want them to know this post is speaking to them." - Humble Disciple “Don’t let foreigners who commit themselves to the Lord say, ‘The Lord will never let me be part of his people...“I will also bless the foreigners who commit themselves to the Lord, who serve him and love his name, who worship him and do not desecrate the Sabbath day of rest, and who hold fast to my covenant. 7 I will bring them to my holy mountain of Jerusalem and will fill them with joy in my house of prayer. I will accept their burnt offerings and sacrifices because my Temple will be called a house of prayer for all nations. 8 For the Sovereign Lord, who brings back the outcasts of Israel, says: I will bring others, too, besides my people Israel.” (Isaiah 56:3,6-8) "On that day his feet will stand on the Mount of Olives...In the end, the enemies of Jerusalem who survive the plague will go up to Jerusalem each year to worship the King, the Lord of Heaven’s Armies, and to celebrate the Festival of Shelters. 17 Any nation in the world that refuses to come to Jerusalem to worship the King, the Lord of Heaven’s Armies, will have no rain."

Be Sober and Watchful: Don’t Let Anything Capture Your Heart Before the Day of the Lord Pastor David Wilkerson urges all people to heed Paul’s warning to be sober, discreet, and vigilant, refusing to become intoxicated by distractions such as romance, work, career, family, or even ministry, because the devil seeks to devour, and anything that grips the heart can destroy the soul. While stressing the responsibility to provide for one’s household and do all things diligently, he emphasizes that believers must remain watchful as the day of the Lord approaches, when the heavens and earth will be burned and dissolved. Citing 2 Peter, he says Christians are commanded to yearn for this day because it brings the promised new heavens and new earth where righteousness dwells, and they must be found in peace, without spot and blameless. He warns from Zephaniah against being “settled on their lees” in comfortable, unstirred religion and calls for hearts stirred by strong preaching and aflame for Jesus, since everything earthly will burn. 00:00 Wake Up and Listen 00:51 Sober and Watchful 01:47 Distraction and Busyness 03:35 Yearn for the Day 05:02 New Heavens Promise 05:30 Not Settling Down 06:07 Settled on Lees 06:43 Stirred by Strong Preaching 08:18 Everything Will Burn

A Season of Rehearsal: Understanding the Fall Appointed Times Join Bible study facilitator, Krista Smith, with Reverend Bernie Dorsey, Pastor Sylvia Laughlin, and others on this episode that frames the fall feasts as God’s appointed times (moedim)—holy convocations and rehearsals of His past, present, and future acts—and calls believers grafted into the commonwealth of Israel to align with His calendar. The group discusses Elul as a month of preparation marked by reflection, repentance, Psalm 27, and the daily shofar blast as the voice of God awakening the soul. The teaching centers on Yom Teruah (Feast of Trumpets), a day of rest, shofar sounding, and “remembering,” exploring what Scripture calls God’s people to remember: His covenant, commandments, character, and the call to repent and obey. The conversation connects Trumpets to the Ten Days of Awe, Yom Kippur as a picture of atonement and coming judgment, and Sukkot as future joy and tabernacling with God, even into the millennial kingdom.

From Carnality to Commitment: Leonard Ravenhill on Spiritual Maturity, the Cross, and Christ Living in Us Leonard Ravenhill preaches from 1 Corinthians 3 and Galatians, warning that envy, strife, and division reveal spiritual infancy and carnality, and contrasting “milk” Christianity with the mature life of the cross. He challenges the popular claim that the world has yet to see what God can do through one fully committed man, pointing to the Apostle Paul as the pattern of total surrender: “Christ liveth in me,” glorying only in the cross, and bearing the “marks” of Jesus as a bondservant. Ravenhill describes the offensiveness of the cross, critiques professionalized and commercialized ministry, and laments modern spiritual weakness, citing a poll that 95% of professing Christians call themselves carnal or babes. He urges believers to stop managing sin, take it to the cross for execution, seek cleansing and indwelling, embrace sacrifice over success, and come to the altar to die to self and live in Spirit-filled power. 00:00 The Cost Of Discipleship by Leonard Ravenhill 02:42 Paul's Damascus Road conversion 27:32 Christianity born in a hostile world 01:10:14 Praying for the church's faith

Worship in Israel, Then War: A Spirit-Led Journey and Escape From Tel Aviv on Oct. 7 The script recounts Krista and Pastor Sylvia’s September 2023 Israel trip with ministry partners, undertaken without a set agenda to follow the Holy Spirit in prayer and spontaneous worship across sites, including Jerusalem, Galilee, Nazareth, Bet She’an, the Mount of Olives, Caesarea, and Gilgal. Krista describes finding a rolled-up scripture on her clothes—“Hear, O Israel…Love the Lord your God”—which they declared throughout the land. They share encounters at houses of prayer, fellowship between Arab and Jewish believers, teachings on humility, repentance, and guarding against “another gospel,” and reflections on the fall feasts, especially Sukkot/Tabernacles as a prophetic “rehearsal.” Leaving on October 7, they were briefly sheltered at Tel Aviv airport amid alarms and later learned rockets and war had begun; they believe God protected and led them to pray in places later attacked, urging viewers to pray for Israel and read Psalm 91 over the nation. 00:00 War Breaks Out 01:18 Trip Prep and Calling 01:51 Mysterious Scripture Sign 06:50 Spontaneous Worship Journey 11:25 Prayer Houses and Humility 12:58 Unity in Christ 15:11 Bet Shean Bible History 16:52 God Orchestrated Encounters 22:34 Mount of Olives Prophecy 26:13 Jerusalem Roads to Prayer 29:19 Caesarea and True Gospel 33:55 Bold Faith Charge 34:10 Fall Feasts Overview 35:09 Tabernacles Wedding Rehearsal 36:08 Sukkot Origins and Command 38:24 Prophecies of All Nations 40:38 Jesus Birth on Sukkot 41:56 Jerusalem Nations Parade 42:39 Gilgal Caves Adventure 53:29 Airport Missile and War 54:48 Pray and Stand With Israel 59:02 Homecoming and Shabbat Song

Leonard Ravenhill laments snobbishness in Christianity and criticizes colleges and seminaries for producing academically qualified preachers who know the Word but not the God of the Word. He contrasts early apostolic power and Pentecost conversions with modern ineffectiveness, calling today’s church a “cruise ship” focused on amusement, fashion, and routine rather than holiness, brokenness, and prayer. Citing examples from Wales, the Salvation Army, the Hebrides Revival, and figures like George Jeffreys and A.W. Tozer, he argues revival cannot be organized or advertised and is always “bedded” in intercession, unction, and Spirit-given authority. He warns of escalating national moral decay and insists God’s chief issue is His church, urging ministers to give themselves to prayer and the Word, rediscover God’s majesty and the sinfulness of sin, and seek divine intervention. 00:00 Degrees vs Devotion 01:37 Cruise Ship Church 02:09 A Culture in Crisis 03:08 Prophets Not Puppets 04:10 What Revival Really Is 07:11 Prayer and National Awakening 07:56 Music Crowds vs Prayer Power 10:34 Unction Over Education 12:52 Prosperity and Prayerlessness 15:33 Majesty of God Restored 16:54 Hebrides Story Breakthrough 20:05 Preacher Two Priorities 23:51 Known in Hell 26:23 Holiness Not Hype 29:42 Sleeping Giant Church 36:07 Absolute or Obsolete Word 39:28 America Broken Need Intervention 42:04 Call to Prayer and Brokenness 43:39 Electrifying Church Prayer 44:01 Closing Prayer

Leonard Ravenhill warns that the world and areas of the church are filled with lying spirits and false doctrine, urging believers to reckon themselves dead to sin and alive to God because Christ lives in them. Drawing from Paul’s writings, he contrasts serving God with serving self and describes Paul’s commitment to glory only in the cross, being crucified to the world and bearing the marks of a bondslave of Jesus Christ. Ravenhill vividly recounts Roman crucifixion to show what it means to lose rights and die to the world’s corruption, insisting preaching is passion, not profession. He highlights Paul’s fearless, Spirit-filled life, the church’s need for spiritual armor and prayerful engagement against powers of darkness, and concludes that Christianity’s cardinal ethic is sacrifice, not success, calling for obedience, deeper prayer, and greater surrender. 00:00 Warnings of Deception 00:21 Dead to Sin in Christ 01:10 Christ Lives in Me 01:54 Glory Only in the Cross 02:16 The Horror of Crucifixion 04:02 Crucified to the World 04:25 No Rights Bondslave 04:49 Passion Not Profession 05:08 Paul’s Fearless Endurance 06:24 Thin Theology Fat Preachers 06:51 Armor of God Warfare 07:25 Filled With the Spirit 07:51 Dead in Sin or Dead to Sin 08:13 Obedience Over More Light 08:31 Sacrifice in Eternity’s Light

Pastor Paris Reidhead's most popular sermon from Judges 17, using Micah’s private shrine and the hired Levite who served for “ten shekels and a shirt” to expose a utilitarian, pragmatic religion that treats God as a means to personal gain. He contrasts this with true Christianity, arguing that the ruling philosophy of pragmatism and the spread of humanism have reshaped both liberalism and fundamentalism into man-centered faith aimed at happiness now or later, rather than God’s glory. Reidhead critiques measuring success by results, citing Noah, Jeremiah, and even Christ by worldly standards, and insists the issue is whether God is an end or a means. Drawing from his own Africa experience and revival history, he calls for Holy Spirit conviction, repentance based on God’s holiness, and surrender for Christ’s glory, closing with the Moravian cry, “May the Lamb that was slain receive the reward of his sufferings." 00:00 Ten Shekels Theme 01:05 Micah’s Idols 02:14 Hiring the Levite 03:15 Danite Raid 05:37 Mixed Religion Exposed 10:06 Pragmatism and Success 15:11 Humanism Invades Church 26:28 Schweitzer and Consistency 30:10 Africa Awakening 35:20 Repentance and Holiness 41:42 Cross and Fullness 48:53 Moravian Mission Cry
