Remember and Celebrate: Feast of Harvest

Celebrating God as Provider

God provides all our needs.  God blesses the Israelites abundantly.  The Israelites were commanded to celebrate the Feast of Harvest, which is also called Pentecost.     Pente, in Greek, means 50.  Pentecost lasted for 50 days after Passover.  The first Pentecost after Jesus raised to heaven, there was a great harvest of 3,000 souls by the coming of the promised Holy Spirit.  God continues to bless His people with abundance, provides all that we need today and commands us to participate in the harvest of winning souls for Christ.
