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
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:
Prophesy into every one of the 8 gates of society in your nation what kingdom patterns you desire to see in this coming season
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.
Is it the month of your birth?
Rosh Hashanah /Feast of Trumpets
This feast is suggestive of a futuristic event; the second coming of the Messiah.
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.
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.
PRAYING FOR NATIONS
Israel & Middle East
ISIS Crisis
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?
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.
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.
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.
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.

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.

New moon will occur on 24 September 2014 @18.14UTC will open the new year and the festival of Rosh Hashanah/Feast of Trumpets

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)
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.
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.
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.
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.
BOOTES represents the “Coming One”, referring to Jesus the coming Messiah and Judge of the earth.
