7 Days of Sukkot: Joyfully Remembering All God Has Done

DAY 3 OF 7

Remembering God’s Provision

God instructs us at Sukkot to remember that He made the Israelites live in tents in the wilderness in a barren desert with no food or water. They could not have survived it without God’s supernatural provision.

He supplied food out of nowhere with a fresh crop of manna each morning, giving the Children of Israel one day’s nourishment at a time. He provided water from dry rocks to quench their thirst and sustain their lives. He even prevented their clothing and shoes from wearing out despite decades of use. God met their essential needs for 40 years. In remembering this during Sukkot, we celebrate God’s provision for the Israelites of ancient days as well as the ways He takes care of us today.

Many graces of provision go nearly unnoticed in our lives because they are so consistently delivered. We consider many guaranteed givens – food, water and clothing among them. The temporary structures of Sukkot remind us what a gift these are. To stop and number the blessings of God’s provision beyond these quickly becomes a list so long we can’t keep track.

As you enjoy this Feast of Sukkot, take time to sit quietly before the Lord. Recount some of the essential gifts He has provided for you. Then, ponder other blessings from His hand. And give Him your thanks.

About this Plan

7 Days of Sukkot: Joyfully Remembering All God Has Done

Rabbis teach that, at Sukkot, we recount four things: that God is a God of remembrance, deliverance, holiness and provision. There are three more that, as Messianic Jewish Believers, we find appropriate to celebrate during the Feast of Sukkot: God’s protection, His presence, and our relationship with Him. Join us each day of Sukkot for another devotion focusing on one of these remembrances.
