Exodus 34:22-24

Here God gives a promise of protection of the land while the nation travelled to appear before Him. Now, this does not mean that there will never be trials involving one’s property while one is keeping the Feast. If our spiritual walls are down, things may happen.

God does not suspend all laws and consequences. But He does give a general promise of protection while we appear before Him. We don’t have to be concerned that everything will disappear while we are away.

The present Feast is called “the Feast of Ingathering” in these instructions as well. There is a definite harvest theme in this observance. Going back to our present-spiritual view, the fruit and the labor that God is most interested in is the fruit of our lives. He evaluates our spiritual labors on behalf of Him and His people.

Exodus 34:22-24

This passage is part of the covenant renewal that took place after the Golden Calf incident, and Moses went back up the mountain to receive two more tablets of stone after breaking the first ones. God then made a series of promises, and He also reiterated some of the things He required, including keeping the three festival seasons. Notice that God gives a promise of protection of the land while the whole nation traveled to appear before Him. Now, this does not mean that there will never be trials involving one’s property while one is away. God does not suspend all laws and consequences. If our spiritual walls are down, things may happen. But God does give a general promise of protection while we appear before Him. We do not have to be concerned that everything will disappear.
