On the 7th of October, we were prompted by the Holy Spirit to do the prophetic act of Water Libation, which is part of the celebration of Sukkot.
In John 7:37-39, "on the last day, that great day of the feast", when Jesus declared "If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. He who believes in Me, as the Scripture (Isaiah 12:3, 43:20, 44:3, 55:1) has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water. But this He spoke concerning the Spirit, whom those believing in Him would receive; for the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified." (emphasis added)
To our understanding, Jesus had declared this during the Water Libation Act performed by the priests in the Temple. Although the order of this act is not recorded in the Torah, this was performed as
- a thanksgiving for the latter rain (Joel 2:23) and
- as a prophetic picture of the Outpouring of the Holy Spirit (Joel 2:28-29).
Pour out Your Spirit, O Lord and fulfill Your will on earth as it is in Heaven!
Let Your Latter Rain fall that the Latter Day Harvest may spring forth!
