Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater, FL (1888PressRelease)
March 14, 2009 - New insight into the spiritual significance of the ancient Hebrew wedding ceremony will be explained in a Marriage Supper on March 21st at 7:00 PM, located at the St. Petersburg Dream Center, 4359 35th Street North, St. Petersburg. This event is based on Rebecca Park Totilo’s book, His Majesty Requests: An Invitation to the Royal Wedding of the Lamb. This award-winning author prophetically teaches, while beautifully illuminating how Yeshua the Messiah fulfilled each custom. Guests will feel as if they are attending an actual wedding, with lively Israeli music and dance with a reception to follow, where light hors d’oeuvres will be served.
Actual footage from several Jewish weddings will be used to paint a vivid portrait of who the Messiah’s beloved bride is based on Scriptures. In it, the mystery of God’s love for Jews and Gentiles throughout the ages is revealed, capturing those intimate moments true believers will experience as they prepare for marriage to the Lamb of God.
“Many of these treasured moments may be recognizable, while others will flash insight into the teachings and ways of a Jewish Savior,” says Totilo, a Messianic believer. “For example, most Christians who partake in Holy Communion don’t realize each time they drink from the shared cup of wine they are acting out part of the betrothal ceremony. In ancient times, an Israeli bridegroom offered a cup of wine as a proposal to the girl he wished to marry. Our Savior, Yeshua fulfilled this custom with his disciples and many others in taking a bride for himself.”
Treating the subject like an heirloom to the Family of God’s heritage, each segment of her presentation will offer an explanation of the custom or tradition of the marriage covenant with biblical relevance. The restoration and brilliance Rebecca Park Totilo brings to these lost snapshots are sure to fill the believer’s heart with a renewed love for their Heavenly Bridegroom. Mrs. Totilo’s understanding of Scriptures from a Hebraic perspective, richly woven through the tapestry of her writing will make this event truly memorable.
As a prolific writer of both inspirational and instructional books, Mrs. Totilo is the author of several titles, including Through the Night With God, The Christian Kids Gardening Guide, The Official Christian Babysitting Guide, and Loving Others Do-Votionals. In addition, she has contributed to numerous books including Quiet Moments with God Devotional, and Stories for The Teen’s Heart 2, both series selling over one-million copies each.
