For the past year in the various nations I go to, I have been teaching about the particular blessings God wants to bring to us that month. Everywhere I do this, whether it is Japan, or Korea, or Russia, there is overwhelming positive response. Thus, I decided to start posting it on our website. Much of the material initially comes from teachings I have heard from Chuck Pierce's Issachar School. Personally I see these three positive things:

• Knowing how God wants to work in our lives and bless us during that month causes faith to arise very naturally.
• Understanding that each month is a new cycle keeps helps us to be expectant.
• We see that life is not a long, long straight line (time wise), but has cycles (days, weeks, months) keeps us focused and enables us better to “redeem the time” (Eph 5:17).

1. The Issachar Month –1 Chron. 12:32. The anointing of Issachar, “who understood the times and knew what Israel should do….” Compare this with Eph 5:15-17, which enjoins us to understand our times. This enables us to keep moving ahead instead of just passing time. God wants us to see each day, each week, and each month as a new cycle of new things He wants to bring into our lives and bless us with. Ask God to help you understand what He wants to do in your life, and determine to accept it.
2. The month of radiance, where light increases (It’s Spring, and the days are getting longer). Just as natural light increases, see that God wants to give you more and more revelation about you and your circumstances. If darkness tries to overtake you this month, say no to it. Declare an increase in revelation. Is. 60:1 says the glory of the Lord will radiate off of us. We need to “radiate” this month.
3. Iyar is a month linked with natural healing – God will just heal certain things naturally. Make a list of things you need to see healed, and expect them to be healed.
4. A month where “I am God your healer (Jehovah Rapha (Ex 15:26))”. You will see your snares. The main snare is murmuring and complaining. The Healer was manifested to help. When we murmur and complain, we open self up for sickness and it is like it becomes scheduled on our calendar. Work hard on not murmuring. It is a poison and brings spiritual death. See Numbers 21:4-9.
5. The “Vav” month – a month that links the Month of Redemption and the Month of Giving. (If you move right in this month, the rest of the year connects properly). Your prosperity is linked with this month. Vav is “the tent peg.” We can bring heaven to earth. Jael drove peg into Sisera’s head (Judges 4:21) God’s judgment was executed thru her.
6. Month of Taurus the Bull – looking and observing introspectively to find a place of improvement so strength manifests. Keep moving, like a bull. Rely on the Lord and keep moving. (Yes, this is one of the signs of the Zodiac. We have to remember the occult can only mimic or try to copy the real. “The heavens declare the glory of God (Ps. 19:1).”
7. A month to deal with your soul (mind, will, and emotions). Make sure these are aligned with God. Don’t let negative emotions remain.
8. A month to understand secrets (Issachar). Thank God that He will show you how to do new things this year.
9. The month of thought. God permeates the mind (The thinking process of heart). If our emotions are messed up, we will not be able to think clearly. God will send healings to impregnate your thought processes.
10. A month of spiritual advice (one needs to be prophetic during this time). If we don’t exercise our gifts, somebody else will. Prophesy regularly this month!
11. A month of the right kidney and conscience (will and thought). Kidneys are linked with emotions, thought processes, and adrenaline flow. Fear affects kidneys. The conscience is a window between spirit and soul. A clean conscience helps us with revelation. God wants to be sure the windows of heaven and the windows of spirit/soul are aligned. He wants to blow down into you. If your conscience is not pure, you will miss some things.
