What do you do after you have been anointed for a purpose or task? What do you do once you realized the calling that has been placed on your life? That is what we will learn from David’s life in this episode of “A King in the Making”. 

David is one of the most iconic figures in all of scripture.  A young shepherd who becomes the greatest king Israel would ever know. A man of confidence…in himself yes…but even more in the God in whom he placed his trust. David exudes confidence because he knows God is with him. He is not seeking glory or fame…he does not desire to be king…yet it finds him nonetheless. What is it about this man that God would choose Him to be king, and despite his many mistakes, God refers to him as a man after God’s own heart. Let’s jump in and look at some lessons from a king in the making.

I love Sukkot because it speaks of hope, and celebrates a time we should all look forward to. A time of peace and joy as Jesus dwells among His people once more and rules over all the earth in person. What a great day that will be. In fact, in ancient Israel, Sukkot was such a joyful feast that everyone looked forward to…so they simply referred to it as “The Feast”.  It symbolized a renewed relationship with God…that the sins of the people were atoned for and their relationship was renewed with their Creator. Sukkot reminds us of the importance of just being in God’s presence and rejoicing over who He is and what He has done and will do for you!

The 6th feast or festival of the Lord is known as Yom Kippur. Yom Kippur means Day of Atonement, and among the Jewish people, it is the holiest day of the year. Everything leads up to this moment. This is the big day when they make atonement for their sins according to the Law of God as written in the Old Testament. Pre-Christ, this was how God instructed them to make atonement for their sins as a nation/ people. Let's dig in and take a look at how Jesus fulfilled the sacrificial system requirements and became the ultimate atonement for our sins!

Leviticus 23:23-25…The Lord said to Moses, “Say to the Israelites: ‘On the first day of the seventh month you are to have a day of sabbath rest, a sacred assembly commemorated with trumpet blasts. Do no regular work, but present a food offering to the Lord.’” The book of numbers and Nehemiah refer to it in a similar way. They are told to celebrate this sabbath day with the sounding of the trumpets…but it is a day of rest in which they are to do no regular work and present a food offering to the Lord.

The 4th feast is called Shavu’ot or festival of weeks (7 weeks to be exact). Christians have come to know it as Pentecost. The day the Holy Spirit was poured out on the believers. The day the Church was born essentially. But its origins, biblically speaking, go back to the Exodus, and more specifically the time when the Torah was given on Mount Sinai following the Exodus. Shavu’ot is directly linked to Passover and the Feast of First Fruits.  In the same way, Jesus' death and resurrection is directly connected to Pentecost and the outpouring of the Holy Spirit.

 The Lord said to Moses, “Speak to the Israelites and say to them: ‘When you enter the land I am going to give you and you reap its harvest, bring to the priest a sheaf of the first grain you harvest.  He is to wave the sheaf before the Lord so it will be accepted on your behalf; the priest is to wave it on the day after the Sabbath.  On the day you wave the sheaf, you must sacrifice as a burnt offering to the Lord a lamb a year old without defect.  -Leviticus 23:9-12

But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the firstfruitsof those who have fallen asleep. For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead comes also through a man. For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive. But each in turn: Christ, the firstfruits; then, when he comes, those who belong to him.  -1 Corinthians 15:20-23

For seven days no yeast is to be found in your houses. And anyone, whether foreigner or native-born, who eats anything with yeast in it must be cut off from the community of Israel. Eat nothing made with yeast. Wherever you live, you must eat unleavened bread.”  -Exodus 12:19-20

Do not eat it with bread made with yeast, but for seven days eat unleavened bread, the bread of affliction, because you left Egypt in haste—so that all the days of your life you may remember the time of your departure from Egypt. Let no yeast be found in your possession in all your land for seven days.  -Deuteronomy 16:3-4
