Greetings to each one of you!
Recently I have been spending some time with the Lord thinking about our Jewish heritage. In many ways it feels like we have moved far from the family that birthed us. When you think of all that God sowed into the Jewish people and His purposes for them as a people, you think of the fact that we, as Christians – as Gentiles, have been grafted in to this root that sustains and supports us. What an awesome thought!
I was also reading in scripture in Isaiah 55. In that portion of scripture it says, “Seek the Lord while He may be found. Call upon Him while He is near.” You think about the fact that God is present 24/7. He is always here. He is always with us.
I recently heard a message in relation to this very scripture. The speaker was talking about the fact that the sun, in August, at least in the Western Hemisphere, is warmer than the sun in January because it is closer to us. You think about the times and seasons and cycles that God, Himself, has put in place.
I believe that God has sown a fabulous seed in Aglow. You know, a farmer knows when to sow a seed for the harvest – for the breakthrough harvest – for the greater harvest that he needs to receive. And God knew when to sow a seed in the earth called Aglow. I believe the timing was perfect and I believe He purposed for a breakthrough harvest through Aglow. I believe it is a seed that is going to feed thousands of souls – millions of souls in the earth because of what He has sown into Aglow and what He wants to sow through Aglow.
In thinking of that and in thinking of our Jewish heritage, I’ve recently been thinking about the Feast of Tabernacles – in fact, the three major Feasts that are spoken of in Leviticus. When God called a Feast or a Holy Convocation, He would urge them to come into His Presence – especially the men - they would come to Jerusalem.
God said, “When you come, bring an offering.” This was a time God set aside for them to draw near to Him, and, obviously, He was near as well.
In thinking about the Feast of Tabernacles, in thinking about bringing an offering, in thinking about our fabulous heritage in the Jewish people and in what God has sown into us through His Chosen People, I felt I wanted to give you an opportunity at this time as the Feast of Tabernacles is upon us the first part of October, I wanted to give you an opportunity to sow into the breakthrough harvest that I believe that God purposed through Aglow. A harvest of souls that are going to be brought into the Kingdom for such a time as this.
This is a storehouse. This Headquarters Office is not just an administrative center. It really is a visionary center for the worldwide ministry of Aglow. Vision comes from here. Helps come from here. Materials come from here. This is a place God has called a storehouse, a headquarters for this fabulous ministry.
I am asking you today, friend of Aglow, to please send an offering and sow into the breakthrough harvest that God is about to bring forth in the earth through Aglow International.
Thank you so much for listening. God bless you.
The Feast of Tabernacles is a time to draw near to God. When you do, bring your offering. Sow it into the breakthrough harvest that God purposed through Aglow. A harvest of souls to be brought into the Kingdom!
