PRAYING THROUGH THE MONTH OF SEPTEMBER 2014
The month of September is a crucial and significant month for various reasons, for many people in many cultures. The word “September” is derived from the Latin word ‘Septem’ meaning seven (7). However this year 5774 being a leap year i.e. 385 days which commenced on September 5th 2013 to September 24th 2014 with an intercalary month of Adar II included, 26th August ushered in the sixth (6th) month of Elul making most of September the 6th rather than 7th month following the Biblical sacred calendar. According to the Biblical civil calendar, It occurs as the thirteenth (13th) and final month of the leap year. However it remains the ninth (9th) month of the Gregorian calendar.
The first (1st) month of the Biblical civil calendar year 5775 called Tishri (Ethanim) will commence on 25th September 2014. This year is special because it is the Shemitah (Sabbatical) Year which runs from Rosh Ha-Shanah 25th September, 2014 until 13th September 2015… that means the following year, that is September 2015 – 2016 is the Biblical Jubilee Year for the Jewish nation – Israel!
Awesome events are already beginning to take shape with prophetic implications that we just cannot ignore. After the first blood moon that occurred on 15th April 2014 much has already taken place in Israel with the current ongoing war in Gaza
This month commences the beginning of the Fall Feasts of the LORD. The Feast of Trumpets/Jewish New Year (called Rosh Ha’Shana in Hebrew) falls on the new moon of 1-2 Tishri on 25th -26th September 2014
During this month there are a number of other events that take place; The autumnal equinox will occur on 23 September 2014 at 02.29UTC when the sun will be directly over the equator crossing southward and creating the phenomena of “equal nights”. It also marks an exit from the summer season and entry into the gate of a new season– the fall/autumn in the northern hemisphere and the entry from winter to spring in the southern hemisphere.
PRAYING THRU THE MONTH
- We are celebrating an ending and a new beginning all in one month. This is the end of the leap year 5774. Praise the LORD that He has faithfully guided you throughout the past civil year and will usher you into the new year. Deut 33.14-19, 27; Psa 71:3, Psa 90.1
- Close the gates of 5774 and open the new gates of 5775 with a proclamation of Psa 65 and Psa 91
- This new gate is an open door of opportunity to all who will take it. This is a new season. Thank the LORD that He is the One who Opens doors that no man can shut Rev 3.8,
- Read Matthew 16:13-19; Peter got a divine revelation of the LORD; and a key of dominion and authority was released to him. When you get a divine revelation of the LORD’s prophetic word; from scripture, prayer, from listening, from other literature, what He reveals constitutes a key in your hand. When you have found it, you will get its reward and your expectation will not be cut off. Revelation is the key to access the new doors of opportunity in this season. Ask the LORD to give you a fresh revelation which will become a key to unlock your dominion in the areas of your interest; whether it is divine health, divine wealth, wisdom, divine ideas etc. Isa 22.22; Prov 23.18, 24.14.
- Read Matt 16:21-23, 1 Cor 16.9; At every new door of opportunity there are wicked enemies that will resist your entrance. They may attempt to wrestle the keys of access from you. Not long after he received revelation and release into authority, Peter was used by the enemy to try and stop the LORD’s fulfillment of the very destiny that would establish the Ecclesia. The enemy does not use someone or an outside occurrence to wrestle your entry into a new season; he will use you first to stop your own entry by either missing the door or losing the revelatory keys of access. Pray that neither you nor any other person or demon shall hinder your entrance into the new season and new gates.
- Pray that the LORD will send His angel to guard your mouth so you will not speak your way out of your blessed season Psa 141.3
- Pray for all your input gates; you will not watch or listen to what will close your doors or lose your key of access; that you will guard your heart in this season from woundedness and reactions to what will constitute to a loss of the keys or closure of the doors you are to enter into. Pray that you will keep your feet from going to connect with persons or be involved in what will close your doors, and your hands from reaching to partake of anything that will cause a closure or loss of opportunity to enter into the season. Prov 4.20-27
- The times and seasons belong to the LORD just like every other thing and its is His good pleasure to bring you through this new door. Pray that every enemy of progress that is from outside of yourself; militating against the entrance into this new season, new year and closure of the past season is henceforth rebuked and bound and cast out of the way as you usher the King of Glory and all His hosts into the new season ahead Psa 24.
It is by a prophetic arm that the LORD ushers people out of an old season into a new one. Melkizedek ushered Abram from the old season into a new season of everlasting covenant with the LORD Gen 14:18-20-15. It was Moses who ushered the band of Hebrew slaves out of Egyptian bondage into national independence. It was Jesus who ushered the whole world out of bondage from sin into eternal life. You are the priest and prophet at the threshold of a new season and this new open door. Speak into the days ahead and prophesy for yourself,Ecclesia:
- Spiritual growth in areas where you have been immature, Isa 61:3
- Fanning to flame deeper love for the LORD and all of His creation especially the brethren 1 Cor 13
- Fanning to flame the Holy Spirit inspired gifts, Isa 11:2, 1 Cor 12
- Divine health, financial stability, contentment 3 John 2
- Divine specificity for which area of the Great Commission to fulfill in this season
- Divine marriage and family life that will be a model for your society
- Divine ideas, productivity and creativity in the work of your hands Prov 31:13-27
- The fulfillment of redemptive purpose for every divinely connected relationship you are to make in this coming season
- Divine destiny helpers in every area of interest to you.
- Seeing eyes, comprehending mind, obeying heart for every GOD-given project and assignment
Prophesy into every one of the 8 gates of society in your nation what kingdom patterns you desire to see in this coming season
- Biblical and moral constitutional definition and values for Families, Psa 127, 128
- Restoration of the proper GODly patterns for family and marriage and for the Holy Spirit to reveal the futility of any other pattern that was not originally set out by the LORD
- A return to the foundational Belief system that declares that Jehovah The LORD of heaven and earth is the LORD; and biblical patterns for patterning the nation with its principles at constitutional levels. Psa 33.12, 144:15, Prov 14:34
- Government, governance and political practices which will boost the development of the nation and raise the moral and living standards of the people Prov 28:2-4
- Leaders in government who will fulfill the LORD’s agenda in the territory and for Africa, that we would have leaders who will turn the face of the continent to a shine.
- Wise defense and security leaders who will work strategies that bring peace and are for the entire territory; they do not just favor few portions of it Eccl 9:14-18
- Presidents whose presidency will bring restoration, repentance, rejoicing, returning to inheritance, rebuilding of old waste and broken places and people groups, restitution of that which has been stolen, realignment to destiny and purpose, reaffirmation that the LORD alone is GOD over the nation and they are merely stewards. Eccl 10:16-17
- A redefinition of the foundation of thrones in each area of leadership and in the three arms of government – judiciary, legislature and executive to reflect righteousness, justice and equity. Isaiah 33:22, Psa 89:14
- Economic apostles who will steer the nation into its GOD-given direction, lay foundations for and develop socio economic policies which will last for generations Gen 41:33-43
- Kingdom Economic and business apostles with divinely inspired ideas for economic success; for harnessing the human and physical resource potentials in every territory in your nation.
- Educational apostles and prophets who will prepare curricula that will stir up the redemptive gifts of the people in their various groupings and raise effective leaders in every sector of society.
- Gifted people for science and technology who will bring development in key areas like health, construction, infrastructure development, communication, new GODly ideas in food production etc. Exod 31:1-11,
- Responsible media that will cover the nation and act as a tool to shape a moral society, dissemination of information that builds up and encourages unity in diversity, that monitors and informs the public with balanced and well researched news, that disregards the sensationalism that is rampant in today’s reporting, and does not become a catalyst for violence, sectarian division and tribal/racial/religious hatred. Psalm 45:1, 68:11
- Fanning to flame various arts and sports which are unique to the territory, even traditional games which are entertaining, educational, uniting, and which celebrate unity in diversity of the territory.
- One of the past prophecies stated that the LORD will revive some of the local arts and sports to become international sports. This will create jobs for talented people in those games, who hitherto, had played them as hobbies or even ignored them for more popular activities like football, athletics, painting, sculpture etc. Pray that this will occur in your territory in this new season.
- Prophesy that there shall be a sanitizing of cultural practices which will reflect and enhance a GODly belief system and a break-down of unhelpful, divisive and unGODly cultural practices in every tribe, tongue, race and religion in the territory
The number 13 is a number that normally speaks of rebellion and apostasy; about fallen man resisting the authorities of The LORD and spiraling down to moral and physical death; it also speaks of anger; and sinful things on the one hand, but we will look at the positive aspects of the same number 13; it is a number of promise.
Between the time Abraham received the promise of a son (Gen 16:15-17) to the time of Isaac’s birth (Gen 17) was 13 years. A time between promise given and promise manifested. It involves man and the LORD. The promise is always initiated by the LORD and destined to change your world forever. It has an underlying knowledge that it is something impossible to man except he is totally dependent on the LORD.
- Are there things you know the LORD has promised you that have not borne fruit? Do they seem impossible? In this 13th month; pray that you will experience a beginning of fulfillment of those promises. Such a month does not occur again for another couple of years so lay hold of the significance of this season and press into it;
- It is a season to bring out all those past prophetic words that have been released over your life, your territory, ministry etc., and remind the LORD in this season of promise; for it is appropriate to remind Him of His promises in such a kairos season.
- The Scriptures are filled with promises for all who will access them. In this season, read the scriptures and bring out all the promises for divine release of health, wealth, peace, marital and ministerial success, business and relational success, long life, favor etc., for His promises never fail 2 Pet 1:3-5, Josh 21.45, Psa 119.140, 145.13, 2 Cor 1.20, Gal 3.16
- The number 1 denotes supremacy, the beginning – pray that in this season of beginnings; you will put the LORD first in every aspect of your life and ministry.
- The number 6 is the number for man and conscience. The LORD created man on the sixth day – the LORD’s last working day, so man started life on the Sabbath day of rest. This has to do with trusting the LORD. In this season ask the LORD to reveal to you areas where you have operated by trusting the arm of flesh and repent of those areas where you have been limited by your income or lack thereof, your medical insurance or lack thereof, your occupation, your intellect and education, your connections etc
- Choose to trust in the LORD in this season. Ask the Spirit of The LORD to show you and kingdom citizens everywhere how to be totally dependent on the LORD. Ask the LORD how He would have you operate in TRUST of Him in every aspect of your life. (Joh 14:26, Gen 2:1-3, Heb 3:7-4:6, 10)
- The number 9 denotes judgement and birthing. Pray that in this season there shall be a judgement on everything that resists the purposes of the LORD at the doors of this new season at every one of the 8 gates of society.
- It is another level of a new season when birthing happens. In this season pray that every GOD-ordained purpose in and through your life will come to a place of safe birthing. Luke 1:35
- Pray for a brooding of the Holy Spirit over every GOD ordained purpose that must be brought forth in this new season in your life, family, ministry and the Ecclesia until it comes to fruition.
- Read Revelations 22;2 and pray that the fruit of the tree of life for the 1st, 6th, 9th and 13th months will be made available to you, and to the Ecclesia in this season.
- Also declare that the leaves for healing of nations will be released to your life and territory. You will enjoy divine health in your life, family, finances, the work of your hands, relationships, in your animals, vegetation, in the nation at large.
Is it the month of your birth?
- Proclaim Psalm 139, Jeremiah 1:5-10 and Jeremiah 29:11 over your life.
- Thank the LORD that He knew you, had a plan for you and crafted you perfectly.
- Thank the LORD that you were always a champion from the day you were conceived when the seed that made you outran the billions of others to connect with the egg in your mother’s womb.
- Praise the LORD that no matter what the enemy may have tried to bring your way, you will fulfill the LORD’s destiny from this day of your birth.
- The day of your birth will be numbered among the days that are blessed and it shall not be found by those who curse days or prognosticate the heavens to fight against you.
- The sun shall not smite you by day nor the moon by night on the day of your birth; but the heavens shall release their best for you. Psa 121:5-6, Hos 2:19-23.
Rosh Hashanah /Feast of Trumpets
This feast is suggestive of a futuristic event; the second coming of the Messiah.
- Happy new civil year. Pray that you and kingdom citizens at large will experience the fresh outpouring of the Holy Spirit in your life to make you relevant in every area. Just like the day of Pentecost, ask the LORD to give you more relevant language to your environment so you can shape it with His purposes. (Ps 45:1, Is 51:16)
- This is a time of rejoicing. Pray that The LORD will fill you with His joy. The LORD will clothe you with garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness. (Is 61:3, Neh 8:10)
- Count your blessing and begin to thank The LORD for all His mighty work in your life, His preservation in the past season.
- This is a time to reflect on the return of the LORD for His bride the Ecclesia which includes the gentiles and the Jews who have accepted the LORD and His atoning sacrifice on Calvary. Are there members of your family, community, who do not know the LORD? In this season, take time to ask the Holy Spirit to guide you to speak to them about the saving grace of the LORD. Pray that there shall be an active move for evangelism and the Great Commission through the Ecclesia . Matt 28:18-20, Joh 3.16-17.
- Pray for an active desire to keep away from iniquity and seek to be holy in the Ecclesia . Pray that the LORD will preserve your soul so that when the Rapture occurs; you will be a part of those who will be caught up with the LORD, whether you are dead or alive. Pray this for kingdom citizens everywhere (Jud 1:24; 1 Thess 4:16-17)
In addition, on the New Year’s Day, the people rejoice for the LORD’s blessing throughout the year just ended, and asked for His blessing in the New Year. In Israel, the fall is the time for ploughing and sowing.
- There are areas of your life which you may have ploughed and not planted anything. They have been lying fallow. They have potential for fruitfulness. These are things which the LORD spoke into your life, potential areas which could otherwise have been fruitful but have been left dormant by reason of neglect, being distracted, timing etc. Pray that every area of your life including talents, giftings, abilities, relationships that have been lying fallow, idle or dormant which need to be activated in this season, will receive the rain of righteousness from the LORD for optimum fruitfulness (Hos 10:12 )
SHEMITAH/SABBATICAL YEAR OBSERVANCE
This year Israel and Jewish people will enter a sabbatical year when they will give the land rest from farming. As soon as the Jews settled in the Holy Land, they began to count and observe seven-year cycles. Every cycle would culminate in a Sabbatical year, known as “Shemitah,” literally: to release. The year following the destruction of the second Holy Temple was the first year of the seven-year Sabbatical cycle. In the Jewish calendar, counting from Creation, this was year 3829, 68-69 CE in the secular calendar. By counting sevens from then, we see that the next shemitah year will be the year 5775 after Creation, which runs from Sept. 25, 2014 through Sept. 13, 2015 The Shemitah year waives all outstanding debts between Jewish debtors and creditors.Nowadays, a halachic mechanism called pruzbul circumvents this loan amnesty. This aspect of Shemitah observance is known as shmitat kesafim, “release of money [debts].” Deut 15.1-2
During the Shemitah year, the residents of the Land of Israel must completely desist from cultivating their fields. They also relinquish personal ownership of their fields; whatever produce grows on its own is considered communal property, free for anyone to take.
The state of Israel has increasingly and in many ways been returning to the observances from the Torah. In modern day state of Israel, Israeli government action to set aside $29 million funding to enable farmers to observe the rest from farming, is headed by Israel’s Religious Affairs Ministry, which will spend the money encouraging and enabling Jewish farmers who wish to follow the command.
It will be used to support farmers who will suffer loss of income, but who nevertheless, choose to keep the Shemitah, allowing their fields to lie fallow in obedience to the LORD’s law. Though farming regulations may seem insignificant to those in urban areas, it was in part Israel’s original failure to observe the resting years that resulted in the 70-year exile (2 Chronicles 36:20-23)—a seven-decade “Sabbath rest” for the land. This aspect of the Shemitah year is known as shmitat karka, “release of the land.” Lev 25.3-6,
In the ancient Israeli agrarian-based culture, the Shemitah year proved to be a difficult challenge for the people’s collective trust in the Creator, the One who bequeathed them the Land of Milk and Honey. Lev 25:20-22 As well as giving the people an opportunity to put their faith and trust in the LORD and see it fulfilled, the yearlong abstention from farming also allowed them to collectively take a breather and focus on higher, more spiritual pursuits — as the people packed the synagogues and study halls. Even today, when the vast majority of Jews are not involved in the farming industry, the lessons of Shemitah are very apt. During this holy year they are expected to concentrate more on the spiritual mission in life, and a little less on material pursuits. More on why we are needed, less on what we need. More on faith in the LORD, less on faith in our own talents and wiles.
Many non-Jews first learned about the significance of the Shemitah year while reading the best-selling Christian book of recent years, “The Harbinger,” by Rabbi Jonathan Cahn, or by watching the documentary version of the messianic rabbi’s teaching, “The Isaiah 9:10 Judgment,” the best-selling Christian movie of 2012 and 2013.
Cahn explained that while the Shemitah was designed by The LORD to be a blessing to the people, when it was not observed, and when the people walked away from the LORD, it became a curse.
In his book and movie works, Cahn, reveals that the two greatest financial calamities in American history occurred on successive Shemitah years following the 9/11 Islamist terror attacks on the U.S. September 17, 2001, six days after the 9/11 attacks, the stock market re-opened and suffered the greatest point loss in its history, to that date. The market dropped 700 points, or 7 percent in one day. In response, the Federal Reserve slashed the nation’s interest rates, ushering in a period of economic devastation for the U.S. Sept. 17, 2001, was the end of the Shemitah year – Elul 29.
Seven years later, September 29, 2008, would prove to be even worse. The days leading up to that date saw the government bailout of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, the two largest mortgage companies in the U.S., in a bid to prevent the collapse of the two. Shortly thereafter, Lehmann Brothers once considered the pinnacle of financial firms, reported losses of 45 percent and filed bankruptcy rather than accept a government bailout. The stock market dropped 777.7 points or 7 percent, wiping out all gains of the past seven years. Thus making it the largest ever one-day drop in the U.S. stock market history. Sept. 29, 2008, fell on Elul 20, marking the end of the Shemitah year in Israel. What followed was an implosion of the U.S. and world economies.
There is indeed need for, not only the Jews to observe the importance of this sabbatical year, but for kingdom citizens everywhere to acknowledge the seasons of the LORD as pointed out in scripture, and fulfilled in Jesus.
The end of the Shemitah year in 2015 will be celebrated Sept. 28 at the Western Wall in Jerusalem. On the same evening, the fourth and final blood moon will occur. This makes the entire season of year 5775 a very prophetic odyssey for both kingdom citizens, and the nation of Israel.
- Now you have knowledge – Ask the LORD that in the face of the realities of failure that attend those who will not observe or acknowledge a sabbatical year how will He have you and kingdom citizens at large to walk and operate in this coming year so that you enjoy all the benefits of the season and avert disaster by ignorance as recorded above? Acts 17.30
- Pray for the government of Israel that the LORD will release the necessary wisdom required to ensure that the nation observes this season; not just religiously, but there shall be a revelational release of wisdom as they walk in this season.
- In this sabbatical year, as Israel opens the doors for the Ecclesia at large to walk into the realities of the Feasts by their acknowledging of the significance of the Sabbatical year, at national level, pray that the rest of the Ecclesia will go back to this foundational truths and there shall be a breaking of the dependence on the arm of flesh; a destruction of the counterfeit gospel of prosperity that has weakened the Ecclesia spiritually and made it a carnal entity dependent on human tactics to produce wealth, miracles, signs wonders etc.
- Pray that in this season of observance and the ushering in of the fall feasts, as various orthodox observers seek for the first coming of the Messiah, there shall be a revealing of the LORD Himself to those who seek Him but are covered by the veil of blindness to His LORDship as Messiah who already came and is to come again.
- It is a season for kingdom citizens who are not necessarily farmers to also reflect more on the aspects of Sabbath rest- the principle of trusting in the LORD, depending on Him for every provision and seeking Him more. Pray for yourself and kingdom citizens at large that there will be revelation on the principles that will strengthen your trust in the LORD.
- Pray that in this coming season, you will spend more time communing with the LORD in various ways to fan to flame all aspects of our relationship with Him.
PRAYING FOR NATIONS
Israel & Middle East
- The fighting between Israel and Gaza continues unabated. Pray that in this sabbatical year, as the government of Israel endeavors to help the people walk through the season, and even reduce on war action, the LORD will arise as Jehovah Nissi, the Banner over the nation and their Shield of Protection.
- The season of the bloodmoons on feast days portends difficult situations which begin just before the bloodmoons and then an abating of the disaster, and a supernatural solution to every crisis. This is the season for divine intervention into the Gaza and Hamas challenge faced by Israel. It is the season for divine intervention into the rise of the ISIS in the Middle East against all non-moslems. No man has a solution for these challenges. Pray that Jehovah Sabaoth will arise with all of the Hosts of heaven and earth to contend with these twin crisis matters so that the land can rest all around and many can also fear the GOD of Israel
ISIS Crisis
- Even as you pray concerning the challenge of ISIS in the Middle East, recognize that the acronym is one of the names for the Queen of Heaven. In ancient Egyptian mythology the goddess Isis, a moon goddess, gave birth to Horus, the god of the sun. Together, Isis and Horus created and sustained all life and were the saviors of their people. They call her the all-goddess and she became the most powerful of all the gods and goddesses of the ancient world. From Egypt to Greece, Rome to Southern Africa, South America and Asia, all across the world she is worshipped under various names including Rain-queen, Ntu, Ashtoreth, Diana Allah etc
- As a moon-goddess, this is the deity behind the idolatrous worship of Allah. With the prophetic reality that Islam is a dying religion, the demonic realm under this deity requires a level of blood of the saints to strengthen and fortify their stance. Bring a lamentation on behalf of the Ecclesia in the Middle East where the violence and bloodshed is taking place. The same violence is also taking place through terrorism by Boko Haram in Nigeria and terrorist violence in other nations including Syria, Kenya, Uganda, Israel, America, Pakistan, India etc Lam 5.
- Bloodshed always brings a curse on the land; bring repentance for the bloodshed that continues in these regions by reason of the sacrifices to Isis the demon-deity behind Islam
- Declare that the blood of Jesus has already paid the price for bloodshed, for every single soul and all other bloodshed and sacrifices are rendered null and voided by reason of His sacrifice on the greatest altar ever raised – Calvary.
- Declare the LORD’s judgment over those who bow to the queen of heaven and make these sacrifices to her – that He will watch over them for harm and not for good Jer 44.25-27
- Pray that the LORD will raise a supernatural solution through kingdom citizens in government, in NGO’s working in these trouble spots, on averting the death as we pray for divine ideas, and bind the principality under the Queen of heaven over these regions invaded by terrorism.
- On a regular basis, proclaim Isaiah 40-49 to contend with every deity that endeavors to raise themselves above the knowledge of the LORD – those gods are not GOD and they will utterly fail in every generation,
West African EBOLA Crisis
The Ebola Virus crisis which began in Guinea and spread through Liberia, Sierra Leone and now in Nigeria continues to plague the people. It is the most severe outbreak of Ebola in terms of the number of human cases and deaths since the discovery of the virus in 1976, with the number of cases from the current outbreak now outnumbering the combined cases from all known previous outbreaks.
As of 20 August 2014, the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) reported a total of 2,615 suspected cases and 1,427 deaths (1,528 cases and 844 deaths being laboratory confirmed). The Ebola virus crisis comes at a time when there are many other challenges which have been blamed squarely on the governments of these nations including unrest, joblessness, insecurity, corruption etc.
Could it be that now there is a crisis which cannot be directly blamed on the government the Ecclesia can turn beyond blame and focus on GODly solutions? How ought we to pray now that we cannot quite pray in or pray out some government leaders to solve the challenge? Could it be that the continent of Africa is being redirected to a pattern of prayer which will not focus on emerging challenges but should focus on destiny and redemptive purpose for our territories?
- When we focus on praying for the LORD to push our territories into their redemptive destiny, then all other challenges that hinder us entering in will begin to find effective solutions. Make this your prayer for yourself, your community and the territory at large.
- Pray that the LORD’s redemptive purpose for these nations which are affected by the virus will begin to come to fruition; as this happens, pray that divine ideas for containing the epidemic, and divine healing solutions will be derived promptly as we align to the purposes of the LORD in various areas of our experience as nations.
- Pray for the Ecclesia that as we begin to pray aright, solutions will emerge not only for the Ebola virus, but for the Boko Haram challenge, and other challenges that have been so difficult to handle; and that kingdom citizens will be in charge of any sector developed to manage the challenges.
- Read Psa 107.20; 1 Pet 2.24, Pray for release of the grace for divine healing of the LORD from the Ecclesia in this season as kingdom citizens become bold and go to pray for those who are ailing. Pray that the testimonies that will come out of what the enemy has endeavored for evil, will turn many to the LORD Jesus as their Savior.
The United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) 2014
The 69th session of the UNGA will hold from 16 September 2014 to 1 October 2014 in New York City USA. This will usher in the 10th Sabbatical year of the UNGA as it enters its 70th year of operation. The number 70 denotes perfection of spiritual order, eldership; rulers of the earth; total victory; elders worship, believers delivered and wars cease. The UN will be tabling the crisis in the Middle East as one of the major topics of discussion – with the ISIS crisis and the war between Israel and Gaza taking center stage.
- Declare that the virtues of the number 70 will be reflected in this particular session of the UN general Assembly. There will be a new level of sobriety, maturity and infusion of wisdom of the LORD in the meetings held.
- Proclaim Psa 117, Psa 148 over the 69th Session of the UNGA.
- Declare that in this sabbatical season of so many significant spiritual events, the simplicity of the wisdom of the LORD will pervade the elders of the nations i.e., dignitaries from nearly 200 nations including heads of state and their delegations, monarchs, diplomats and professionals converge at this single venue in New York UN Headquarter for the duration of the assembly for various discussions.
- Declare that the outcomes of all discussions in this particular assembly will bring forth a deliverance of the believers especially in terrorism hit areas by ISIS, Boko Haram, Al Shabab and other terrorist cells.
- Declare that there shall be a supernatural visitation of the LORD to various leaders who attend the conference in this particular year as it enters its 70th cycle- and there shall be a new worshipping of the LORD by elders of the nations.
- Declare wisdom on the matter of the state of Palestine and Israel proclaiming Psa 48 and Psalm 49 concerning the purpose for the UN, the division of Israel and their release from legal captives.
This year an African will be president of the 69th assembly. Sam Kutesa president elect at the UNGA is minister of foreign affairs for Uganda. He takes the baton from the former UNGA President of African extraction John Ashe of Antigua and Barbuda in this significant season when the UN enters its 70th session.
- Pray for the President-elect of the UN general assembly, that he would be confirmed unanimously and will exercise uncommon governance authority, grace and wisdom that is from the LORD to run the meetings in a way that would glorify the LORD and His purposes in the nations.
- This is a season when Uganda has been under fire for rejecting homosexuality and abortion. Pray that these matters will be navigated with wisdom as nations gather; and the precedent that Uganda began will flow throughout the continent to resist this abominable stances from the western world and aid agencies.
The Spiritual advisory body of the UN is the World Goodwill which runs its spiritual agenda under the Cycle of Conferences; World Goodwill is a section of Lucis Trust (Lucifer’s Trust). They run an anti-GOD agenda and have a clear understanding of the spiritual nature of all the conferences run by the United Nations. This is what they have to say concerning the conferences in this year:
“Today, in the planning now going forward in connection with the various international conferences and councils…the spiritual effort (for the first time in human history) is to bring all of them, as functioning groups, under the direct impact of the energy which motivates and actuates that place where the Will of God is known and the purposes of divinity are defined and projected. This means that each of the coming world conferences (and there will necessarily be many) will have a greater and far more extensive effect than would otherwise be the case.”
World Goodwill’s Cycle of Conferences project is a worldwide meditation group that joins together in a visualisation to help spiritually enlighten the atmosphere on which world conferences vital to humanity’s spiritual progress depend.
In this season more than ever our leaders who go into the conferences without much spiritual cover, and at most with a lot of occult practices, find that they are cast under a spell of wickedness so that they become dull and cannot formulate any policies that are helpful to humanity. Many unGODly policies are fomented because the conferences are covered spiritually by the above body.
- Earnestly pray for the leadership of the nation as they attend these meetings so that they will be alert, there shall be angelic covering to ensure they contribute meaningfully toward the development of the nations and resist unGODly policies that derail the nations from pursuing the purposes of the LORD.
- Declare Isa 44:24-25 and Jer 10.1-16 over the World Goodwill and other spiritual bodies that guide the UN activities from a spiritual level. The LORD alone is Governor over the nations as they attend the conferences Psa 22.28.
Nations of the 10/40 Window
During this season we continue to pray for over 100 cities of the 10/40 window. The LORD’s strategy is to stretch the Rod (Word) of the LORD over the territory. It means we make Scriptural proclamations to contend with chants and proclamations going out from that region to the various demon deities worshipped in the 10/40 window territories.
- Pray for Jesus’s visitation to individuals and people groups in the following cities using the proclamations in the updated publication “Praying Thru the 10/40 Window” which was sent to you in the previous guides or make an email request.
- While focus is on the 10/40 window territories, include your own territory and other trouble spots and all lawlessness as you proclaim the Word of the LORD as law over every gate of society on a regular basis:
- Bamako meaning “crocodile pool” capital of Mali belief Islam/animism
- Ougagadougou meaning “place of the Oauga people”; capital of Burkina Faso belief Animism/Islam
- Algiers meaning “the islands” capital of Algeria belief Islam
- Kuwait city meaning “small fort” capital of Kuwait belief Islam
- Beirut meaning “wells, springs” city in Lebanon belief Islam
- Pune meaning “city of merit” city in Maharashtra province india belief Hinduism
- Hyderbad meaning “lion town”. City in Andhra Pradesh province India belief Hinduism
- Jakarta meaning “place of victory” city in Indonesia belief Islam
- Dhaka meaning “after Durga wife of Shiva” city in Bangladesh belief Hindu/Islam
- Phnom Penh meaning “hill of a woman named Penh” capital of Cambodia (Kampuchea) belief Buddhism/Atheism

PRAYING THROUGH THE HEAVENS
Lunar Events
Not many people have heard about the Bible story in the stars. This is definitely NOT astrology. Astrology can’t even put three signs together to make a story, whereas, the 48 constellations that make up the true Zodiac all go together to tell the story of Jesus, the Redeemer. The story includes His birth and life prophesy (the first four major Signs; 16 constellations), His dealings with His elect people (the second four major Signs), and His coming in triumph over Satan( the last four major Signs).
The heavens on a daily basis declare the glory of the LORD seen in the face of Jesus. These declarations ought to be understood and appropriated by kingdom citizens; not only in times of major heavenly activities e.g. the eclipses and other alignments of the heavenly bodies, but on a daily basis.
- Thank the LORD that the heavens on a daily basis declare His glory and each day has a speech that is released over creation
- Pray that you will be among those who can answer in the affirmative the question posed in Job 38.33 – that you will know the ordinances of the heavens and set their dominion on the earth
- Pray that in this season of high spiritual activity when the heavens are declaring seasons of triumph of good over evil; of liberty and new beginnings you will not miss it.
Crescents and Quarter Moons
The First quarter moon will occur on 2nd September 2014 @23.11UTC, and the last quarter moon will occur on 16 September 2014 @14.05UTC
- Command the quarter moons to praise the LORD in their season.
- They use the D shaped quarter moon or it’s mirror image as a bow to shoot arrows at the ignorant. Pray that the LORD will be your shield and great Reward; pray this for all kingdom citizens everywhere Psa 91:5-6, Deut 49:23
- Pray that in the season of the quarter moons, your bow will be made strong by YHVH. You will be an arrow in His hand. He will shoot you forth and you shall land on target, deep in the heart of the enemies of His purposes in every area of expression. Pray this for the Body of Christ (Deut 49:24, Psa 127:4-5.)
- As often as possible in this month, prophesy Psalm 91 over your life, family and the Body of Christ in the territory
The Full moon will occur on 9th September 2014 @13.38UTC
- Pray that the moon, the faithful witness in the sky (Ps 89:37) should mark a season of unprecedented levels of glorifying the LORD Psa 104:19, Psa 89:37
- Command the moon to reject every kind of worship, sacrifices, incantations, projections and prognostications made to it, and rather be a faithful witness to the season of the LORD’s glory, power, presence and goodness to His people. Ps 89:37; Prov 14:5
- Pray that the LORD will release those who are struck by the moon in this season esp. people who tend to have any issues with mental health or stability. Some people get temporary memory loss during this season of full moon. Some students forget during exams. Psa 121:6
- Pray that at the full moon there shall be a coming to fullness of the prophetic word of the LORD for you in this new month, and from thence as it wanes the prophetic releases will begin to come to fruition in every area of your existence.
New moon will occur on 24 September 2014 @18.14UTC will open the new year and the festival of Rosh Hashanah/Feast of Trumpets
- Command the gates of the New Year to be lifted up unto the LORD, and command the new moon to welcome the LORD into the gates of this new season. (Ps 24:7-10)
- The LORD gave Israel a command “Blow the trumpet in the new moon, in the time appointed, on our solemn feast day”. Pray for the members of the Ecclesia globally to gather solemnly in season of heightened intercession for our territories wherever we live Psalm 81:3
- A C shaped moon or its mirror image is a crescent;. The occult use the crescent moon as sickles (e.g. Hecate’s sickle), for harvesting the gains of the ignorant. Pray that the Crescent and quarter moons will do only YHVH’s bidding i.e. to praise Him and give Him pleasure as they display His glory on earth Col 1:15-20, Rev 4:11
- Declare that ever demonic harvester, every thief of kingdom citizen’s harvest will be cast out and blown away by the east wind of the LORD; and we shall partake of every harvest that we are entitled to. Psa 126:5-6
Solar Events
The autumnal equinox will occur on 23rd September 2014 @ 02.29UTC
- This day when the sun crosses the equator brings the phenomenon of equal nights; with 12 hours of daylight and 1 hours of darkness along the equator. Command the sun to praise the LORD to praise the LORD and respond only to His bidding and do their role of legislating the times and seasons Psa 104.19-20, 148:1-6
- Many occultists will converge at the equator locations to carry out enchantments, and speak into the laylines to carry out their bidding across the earth. Command the laylines of the earth including the equator, the prime meridian, the international date line, the tropics of cancer and Capricorn to do only the bidding of the LORD and reject every other voice. The earth is the LORD’s and must respond only to His commands Isaiah 38.8
- There is a worldwide variety of fall equinox celebrations, which demonstrates the diversity of religious beliefs including remembering the dead from this season. There are those merchants of the earth that are hunting for souls all over the world to harvest into the kingdom of darkness (Rev 18.13). Pray that the LORD will be the Deliverer of such souls from the hands of the soul hunters and the fowler. He will send his angels who are hunters and fishers to address all these appropriately. Psa 91, Prov 6:5, Jer 16:16
From 10th August to the first half of this month on 16th September 2014 the sun will still be in its sojourn through a cluster of 95 stars in the constellation called Leo symbolized by the Lion and represents YESHUA AS THE LION OF THE TRIBE OF JUDAH. That is the 12th gate through which the sun passes every yearly cycle. Its lodging in the cluster of Leo brings the story of Jesus in the heavens to full circle – completion. Refer to August 2014 Prayer guide for further prayer for this part of the month
One more decans of the star cluster Leo is Draco which has to do with this 13th month of the leap year 5774. Draco influences all twelve constellation groups through his subtlety. Notably his tail lies in the last constellation Leo, between Ursa Major and Minor, signifying that his power over the seed of Abraham will come to an end when the Lion of Judah returns to the earth and imprisons him.
Draco’s testimony is that because man’s troubles begin and end with him, yet he is the 13th discreet constellation, hidden for all time among the 12. It is fitting to label him the 13th for this is the number of apostasy. He rebelled against the LORD and His Word. He is determined to challenge the rule of YHWH. He has his own religion which is built on the precepts of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil and which is in opposition to the precepts of the LORD found in Scripture. (Isa 14:13-15)
He is described in the stars as ‘subtle’ because his ways often seem to be aligned with Scripture. The prudent, discerning person will see through him but the hasty, worldly person will be drawn onto a path of ultimate destruction. Satan has been given 6000 years (6 being the number of man) to reveal the true hearts of men by appealing to their inner lawlessness. No person will be able to stand on the day of judgment and claim that Satan did anything more than appeal to the inner cravings of their heart. Each person is responsible for his own destiny.
The stars and Scripture both declare that Satan will be brought down and punished. He will be imprisoned for the Millennial Reign of Jesus and then he will be destroyed in the lake of fire. (Revelation 20:10)
- In this 13th and 6th month consecutively, command the star cluster Draco to declare the glory of the LORD
- This hidden constellation reveals the subtlety and wily nature of the enemy. We are in a season when so much wickedness is veiled in layers of what seems good and holy and done in the name of the LORD. Many people who minister seek powers from the kingdom of darkness and are deceiving thousands across the world. Pray that as the heavens declare, there shall be a revealing of these counterfeit ones so that people will not be led into the destruction.
- In this season, pray for the gift of discernment to be fanned to flame in your life; because so many are undiscerning of the wickedness that operates around us in our offices, homes, communities and even in the Ecclesia . Ask the Holy Spirit to show you how you will grow this area of your life and what ought you to do in order to become more discerning.
From 16th September 2014 to 30th October 30th 2014, as the sun makes one of its longest circuits through the heavens, it passes through a group of 110 stars in the constellation called Virgo. Virgo marks the sun’s first entrance into a constellation in its 13 month circuit through the heavens.
Virgo reveals the particulars of the Abrahamic Covenant – its guarantor the LORD, its legal executors Abraham and Sarah, and its first beneficiary Isaac. Its fulfillment in Jesus. It is a legal contract, written in the heavens, so that all creation can see and know that the Creator of the heavens and the earth is in a legally binding contractual relationship with a particular people who descend from the loins of Abraham and Sarah and the other nations were grafted in through Jesus.
Virgo is symbolized by a virgin who lay across the ecliptic bearing a branch in her right hand and a sheaf of wheat in her left hand. Her head is positioned very close to the tail of Leo. She stands upon the sign of Libra.
The wheat sheaf is a fertility symbol; the branch refers to the Messiah. (Isaiah 11:1). Here begins the tale of the Jesus’s life as foretold by the heavens. It starts with a two-fold testimony of the Coming One. Stars: The branch; the gloriously beautiful; who shall come down; who shall have dominion; the son; who carries; a spike of corn; the seed.
- Command the constellation Virgo to praise the LORD as it dominates the skies in the coming season.
- Thank the LORD for Jesus who humbled Himself and became just like vulnerable baby, allowed himself to be raised by a regular poor couple, grew into a man and made choices that enabled Him to BECOME the Savior. He allowed Himself to come through the channel of fallen man in order to redeem us (Phil 2:5-11, Joh 3:16, Rom 5:6-8)
- Pray that during this season many in unreached places will receive a heavenly revelation of the redemptive role of Jesus who was born to save mankind from eternal destruction 1 Joh 3.8
- Isaiah prophesied about Yes the Branch that would spring forth from Jesse. Jesus proceeded to display the 7 spirits of YHVH. Pray that during this season, as many as are willing in theEcclesia , will begin to manifest in greater measure, each of the 7 Spirits of YHVH in this new season Isa 11:1-2.
Four other smaller groups of stars called decans that form part of the constellation called Virgo give further details of who the “Branch” is.
COMA Above the ecliptic an enthroned young woman holds her infant son. Named: The desired or longed for.
- It represents “The Desired” which portrays the coming “Branch” to be a child who will be the “Desire of all nations” referring to Jesus. Thank YHVH that Jesus fulfilled that which the heavens declare. Hag 2.7
- During this season of the Feast of Trumpets many orthodox Jews look forward to the first coming of the Messiah. Pray that the LORD will appear to many as the Messiah who already came more than 2000 years ago to redeem all creation and set off these last days.
CENTAURUS represents “the centaur” a being having two natures A man with the body of a charging horse (centaur) lies below the ecliptic. He holds a shield and spear and is piercing a victim. Between his hind legs is the ancient sign of the Hebrew letter Tav. Named: The despised; sin offering; the pierced or who pierces. Stars: Heretofore and hereafter.
- Meditate on Isaiah 53 during this season
- These stars depict Jesus in His two-fold natures, Son of GOD and Son of Man, the Lion and the Lamb, the root and offspring of David, the peasant Shepherd and royal King. Praise the LORD that the heavens declare this truth.
- Pray that kingdom citizens will during this season gain a better understanding of the two-fold nature of Jesus and how it manifests in their lives as He dwells in us.
CRUX – THE COVENANT: Rather than a cross this constellation is the ancient version of the last letter of the Hebrew alphabet, the Tav. This sign is positioned directly between the centaur’s legs. Named: Cutting off; boundary; mark; finish.
- Pray that as the heavens declare, you will during this season go back to the message of the cross and ask the Holy Spirit to give you a revelation on this greatest altar that was ever raised.
- Pray that you will revisit the importance of “carrying your cross” daily as commanded by Jesus
- The Cross was the scene of the new covenant that was cut between the LORD and man restoring us back into fellowship with Him and therefore back into our redemptive purpose as mankind to rule and reign with Him forever. Read and meditate on Gen 1:26-28, Rev 22:4-5 and ask the Holy Spirit to bring you to a new and greater revelation of the significance of the Cross and the covenant we have through it.
BOOTES represents the “Coming One”, referring to Jesus the coming Messiah and Judge of the earth.
- Is it not amazing that the heavens declare this reality in line with the Fall Feast of Trumpets? Praise the LORD that His promise to return for His bride remains true even as the heavens so declare.
- As the heavens are declaring His soon return, ponder on this question, are you ready?

PROCLAIM OVER THE EARTH
“IN THAT DAY I WILL RESTORE DAVID’S FALLEN SHELTER— I WILL REPAIR ITS BROKEN WALLS AND RESTORE ITS RUINS— AND WILL REBUILD IT AS IT USED TO BE, SO THAT THEY MAY POSSESS THE REMNANT OF EDOM AND ALL THE NATIONS THAT BEAR MY NAME,” DECLARES THE LORD, WHO WILL DO THESE THINGS. “THE DAYS ARE COMING,” DECLARES THE LORD, “WHEN THE REAPER WILL BE OVERTAKEN BY THE PLOWMAN AND THE PLANTER BY THE ONE TREADING GRAPES.
