In his sermon on the Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot), Pastor Mel teaches that this joyful seven-day biblical festival, celebrated each fall after the harvest, was designed by God to remind Israel of His faithful provision during the wilderness years when they lived in temporary shelters, while also pointing forward to greater spiritual realities fulfilled in Christ. Drawing from Leviticus 23, he highlights the command to dwell in booths, rejoice with branches, and rest on the first and eighth days, noting how Jesus Himself attended this feast and, on its climactic last day, stood in the Temple and cried out, “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to Me and drink,” promising rivers of living water—the Holy Spirit—who would later be poured out at Pentecost and, as Joel prophesied and Peter confirmed, continues to be poured out upon all flesh in the last days. Mel connects the temporary tents of Sukkot to Paul’s imagery of our earthly bodies as tents awaiting an eternal house from God, encouraging the congregation to live in joyful expectation of the ultimate ingathering when Christ returns and we tabernacle forever with Him.
