The Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot) is one of the important feasts in the Bible. It is a time for the people of God to gather together to remember God's deliverance and provision in the desert in the past. Yet there is hope that is we are to look ahead to that promised Messianic age when all nations will come to Jerusalem to worship the LORD.
I am wondering how the Israelites were feeling when they were about to exit Egypt. Did they reminisce about their lives in Egypt for the past decades, not to mention four centuries had passed? How much longsufferings and lamentations they must have cried to their God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob when they were made slaves?
As we celebrate Jesus Christ's Resurrection, it is God’s way of authenticating who the Lord Jesus is. He is the One who makes sense of our lives and gives meaning to life itself.
The journey with Christ towards Resurrection Sunday has begun yesterday, Ash Wednesday. Take these 40 days (excluding the weekends) of Lent to reflect, repent, and renew in the promises of Christ, our Saviour and Redeemer.
Today the world celebrates Valentine’s Day with love in mind and the Christians too will begin to remember the greatest love of all – their Saviour’s sacrificial love for mankind by dying on the Cross.
The ICF Pastor and Leaders wishing all a Happy Lunar New Year (Tet) and may the Lord grant you His grace and favour this new year.
