kislev, 9th month of the hebrew calendar
November 18 - December 17, 2009
Most of the content is derived from teachings I heard from Chuck Pierce and Robert Heidler (Glory of Zion) a few years ago. Praying and declaring these blessings over myself, family and ministry the past 4 years has brought incredible blessing. – Be blessed! Ron Sawka
- Month of Benjamin. Benjamin was the only child born in the land of Israel, so watch Israel. Things will happen that change its course.
- A month to develop your warfare strategies; a month to have prophetic revelation for war. You can get prophetic revelation for strategies. Benjamin was the most gifted with the bow (which can represent prophetic strategy). See also Genesis 49:27 “ Benjamin is a ravenous wolf; in the morning he devours the prey, in the evening he divides the plunder.” Declare that for yourself this month.
- A month to enter into new levels of trust and rest. (We need to believe if we tap into a lifestyle of thanksgiving we can overcome many obstacles in our lives.) For example, if you are feeling financial pressure, make a point not to worry, but instead deliberately choose to be thankful. Be sure to be thankful for all the difficult situations you find yourself in. See 1 Thes. 5:18 “In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.” See also Col. 3:17.
- The month of Hebrew letter, SAMEKH. This means trust, confidence, support, coming full circle. This is a month for developing trust and confidence. If you do not develop in these areas, then you will find yourself going around the same circle again and again., and won’t break into the new. See lives of Jacob, Joseph. Things came full circle for Jacob when he returned to Canaan after 20 years serving Laban. Joseph was reconnected with his family.
- Month to review your support system. Whom do you support? Who supports you? Who are your friends?
- The month of the rainbow. You have to war to have peace. This Biblical concept is very important to recognize. Peace will not just happen, we have to choose to stand in faith, joy, and thanksgiving.
- Month of a sense of tranquility and peace. You have come through a flood; God doesn’t want you to have go through it again. Warfare is not just chaos around us, we are also on the offensive. Seeing the conflict, we can have peace in the midst of it.
- Month of dreams and night visions. The Lord has been piling up revelations through the year, and now all of a sudden He releases them.
- You should watch your sleeping patterns. You may have to let God heal you of trauma, so that you can sleep better in the future. (Some dreams are just God replaying a memory of something. If you feel this pertains to you, ask the Lord to heal you of whatever trauma He’s showing you and He will.) See Psalm 127:2 - The Lord grants sleep to those He loves.
- Month of the belly/womb/abdomen/river of God. There is a relationship between tranquility and fullness, and the ability to understand your next measure. The latter rain starts in September (feast of Tabernacles), so by now should be a running river. Understand the relationship between tranquility and fullness. Think about the river of God in Ezekiel 47. The process of revelation is as follows: ankle-deep, knee-deep, waist-deep, and then “swimmably-deep.” God wants to carry us in the river so we don’t just have to walk.
- Month to shoot straight and to move quickly. Don’t ramble around. Cut your losses and move on.
- Month of Sagittarius (the archer). A time to to fight against empires and cultures. Watch Israel, America, and any covenant nation. Watch China. Watch nations that rise against covenant nations.
- Usually the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah is in this month (Hanukkah lasts 8 days) and finishes during the next month.
