A Prophet Comes to the Feast of Tabernacles

סוכות ‎ or סֻכּוֹת

Jerusalem --

The Feast of Tabernacles -- 5772

Although surrounded by the hatred of its enemies,

the tiny nation of Israel has celebrated its High Holy Days

for the year, 5772.

The final event was the Feast of Tabernacles, when the manifest

Presence of God with His Covenant believers, was celebrated.

This year a prophet was invited to the party.

From California, Kim Clement and his team flew into Israel to pray,

to proclaim the Word of the Living God, to encourage the leaders

and people of Israel, and to celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles.

Hundreds of thousands of prayer-warriors from around the world,

were also in attendance through Kim Clement's web-based television ministry.

Orphanages supported by the ministry were visited.

The feeding program (in association with Rabbi Eckstein's

International Fellowship of Christians and Jews) was visited as well.

Team member Hannah, mother of Emma,

took her daughter to the Wailing Wall,

sole remains of the ancient Temple.

There she prayed for the world's special-needs children.

Accompanied by his Israeli host, Kim Clement walked to the Wall.

He held up his mantle and touched it to the Wall, representing

the prayer petitions sent by his ministry partners.

At the Feast of Tabernacles celebration, the prophet led the people

as they praised and worshiped God.

Then the Spirit of God spoke through His servant.

The miracle of God's intervention during the reign of

King Jehoshaphat was retold. (2 Chronicles 20)

Then in the midst of the assembly the Spirit of the Lord came upon Jahaziel the son of Zechariah, the son of Benaiah, the son of Jeiel, the son of Mattaniah, the Levite of the sons of Asaph;

and he said, "Listen, all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem and King Jehoshaphat: thus says the Lord to you, 'Do not fear or be dismayed because of this great multitude, for the battle is not yours but God's.

Tomorrow go down against them. Behold, they will come up by the ascent of Ziz, and you will find them at the end of the valley in front of the wilderness of Jeruel.

You need not fight in this battle; station yourselves, stand and see the salvation of the Lord on your behalf, O Judah and Jerusalem.' Do not fear or be dismayed; tomorrow go out to face them, for the Lord is with you."

Jehoshaphat bowed his head with his face to the ground, and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell down before the Lord, worshiping the Lord.

The Levites, from the sons of the Kohathites and of the sons of the Korahites, stood up to praise the Lord God of Israel, with a very loud voice.

Enemies Destroy Themselves

They rose early in the morning and went out to the wilderness of Tekoa; and when they went out, Jehoshaphat stood and said,

"Listen to me, O Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem, put your trust in the Lord your God and you will be established. Put your trust in His prophets and succeed."

When he had consulted with the people, he appointed those who sang to the Lord and those who praised Him in holy attire, as they went out before the army and said, "Give thanks to the Lord, for His lovingkindness is everlasting."

When they began singing and praising, the Lord set ambushes against the sons of Ammon, Moab and Mount Seir, who had come against Judah; so they were routed.

For the sons of Ammon and Moab rose up against the inhabitants of Mount Seir destroying them completely; and when they had finished with the inhabitants of Seir, they helped to destroy one another.

The following was prophecied:

Netanyahu was chosen. . .

As he remains in trusting obedience,

God will show HIS magnificence,

and He will judge Israel's enemies. . .

Israel was given her land, and the city of Jerusalem,

for all eternity. . .

Therefore, do not be afraid!
