16 In Your name they rejoice all the day, and in Your righteousness they are exalted.
17 For You are the glory of their strength [their proud adornment], and by Your favor our horn is exalted and we walk with uplifted faces!
18 For our shield belongs to the Lord, and our king to the Holy One of Israel.
- Psalm 89 AMP
The ways of GOD are many and some are complicated especially when we consider the feasts ordained by GOD from the time of Moses. But GOD will bless those who understand and appreciate the spiritual blessings of the feasts. Those who follow the ways of GOD and celebrate the feasts regardless of their identity Jews or Gentile, are blessed by GOD. Not not only do they have financial and spiritual blessing but their blessings overflow within their souls, they are happy. They are favored and even envied wherever they may go.
Even when preparations of the feast may stress out many people preparing them, they rejoice during the day because GOD causes His righteousness to exalt them for honoring Him. There are people who do not enjoy preparing for big celebrations, there are wedding planners who like these grandious preparations and make a career out of them. But to those that prepare for the feasts of GOD because of their love for the LORD are favored by GOD, exalted by HIM, and strengthened by His glory which will be an adornment on them more than precious stones and jewels. Others do not know of the feast but who experience it will be curious of it's deeper meanings causing them to draw near to the GOD who commanded them resulting in people getting to know the true GOD of Israel is the Only GOD of the Universe who created the whole earth and all things have come from HIM. The feasts of GOD are for others to know that HE is real and active and that HE wants us to celebrate Life.
