Elul, 6th month of the Hebrew Calendar

August 31 – September 28, 2011 (29 days)

The “WHY” and “HOW” of celebrating each Hebrew Month:

¥       This is one of the primary ways God has for us to grow.

¥       God’s  redemptive  plan  is  written  in  the  heavens  (Psalm  19,  Psalm  8:1-3)  and the heavens declare it. It’s like His word is in a circuit (Psalm 19:6).

¥       We need to know and believe the blessings of each month.

¥       As we declare them, they begin to manifest in our lives.

¥       Agree and declare the blessings that He has for us: this is one way that we are

to be co-laborers with Christ (2 Corinthians 6:1).

 

1.     The month of the tribe of Gad. When Gad was being born, Leah said, “A troop comes,” (Genesis 30:11) which indicates increase. Another reference is Genesis

49:19,  which  has  the  blessing  that  Jacob  spoke  over  him:  “a  troop  shall  tramp upon him, but he shall triumph at last,” which indicates that this is also a month of triumph and victory. There was a pressing and testing the past two months. Now we are coming into a time of increase. Declare increase over your life.

2.     The month to camp or find your place in the order of camps or company of the Lord.  This  is  often  the  head  of  the  year  (the  beginning  of  Hebrew  year  often occurs during this month). Many people miss their “window of opportunity” to find their  place.  Therefore,  they  wander  around.  Some  kind  of  mistrust  came  in, preventing them from connecting. If you don’t deal with mistrust correctly, when the  new  window  of  opportunity  opens,  you  will not  connect,  and  eventually  can end  up  completely  alone.  We  need  other  people.  This  is  how  we  were  made. Mistrust of others is a sign of a root of rejection. It will prevent you from coming into the fullness and strength that you can get from others. Thus, you can be in your  wilderness  by  yourself.  There  will  always  be  wildernesses  to  go  through periodically. (Jesus demonstrated the wilderness principle–a place of testing that produces testimony and brings confrontation with the enemy.) However, this is a warning to be properly connected. If you are isolated, you will get picked off by the enemy.

If you go through tragedy, this will be a year of grief. Process it using the victory blessings of each month. Sometimes we must go through the wilderness, but you can still receive the blessings of each month.

Pray,  “Lord,  do  not  let  me  miss  opportunities  because  of  inbuilt  mistrust.  Deal with rejection in me. You want me to be abundantly connected and not isolated and alone.”

3.     The  month  of  good  fortune.  Rewards  begin  to  manifest  over  what  you  have

done–think “reward.” You will reap what you have sown. If you constantly labor and  never  see  the  reward,  you’ll  get  burned  out.  You  need  to  know  how  to abound.  (In  Philippians  4:12,  Paul  said  that  he  knew  how  to  abound.)  Begin  to think  “abounding”  and  “abundance.”  Start  thanking  God  for  his  abundance  and looking for more of it.

4.     The   month   that   “the   King   is   in   the   field.”   Approach   Him   and   allow   His countenance to shine upon you. You need to learn how to approach Him. There

is an awe of God that we come into so He can pour his presence upon us. Know that  the  Lord  has  come  to  look  at  your  field,  and  at  your  own  boundaries.  He wants to bless all you are doing.

5.     The month of the Hebrew letter “YOD,” which means “appointed mercy from the hand of God.”

6.     Month  of  the  maiden.  “I  am  my  beloved’s,  and  my  beloved  is  mine”  (Song  of

Solomon 6:3).

7.     Month  to  run  into  the  tower  of  might–a  strength  greater  than  yours  that  can encompass you. You don’t have to be strong all the time (see Proverbs 18:10), but you can enter into His strength.

8.     Month  for  inner  knowledge  of  peace  to  be  activated.  Always  find  time  to

“regroup” in order be whole.

9.     The  “point  month.”  The  understanding  of  the  beginning  so  you  can  begin  to reach your end.

10.   The month to fix what has been broken. (If He doesn’t tell you it is fixable, let it disintegrate and die.)

11.   The month of complex systems beginning to be managed.

12.   The “mother month.” The month of nurturing. This month is “apostolic,” just like

Av. Who are you watching after? Who is watching after you?

13.   The  month  where  Rebecca  gave  birth  to  Jacob  and  Esau.  Do  you  “birth” blessing, or something that God is going to hate later on. Who is contending for you?

14.   The month of the left hand, which controls the sense of action, and good or bad emotions. You need to be sure your emotions are in good order. In other words,

let your actions come out of good emotions.
