1 Republic for the united States of America Scriptures for the Biblical Month of Sivan Biblical Months fall under the Law Form of YHWH (Yahweh), Father-Son-Holy Spirit, through the revelation of His Word. The Amplified, King James, New American Standard and Passion versions of the WORD of GOD were used in this study. Additionally quotes are taken from A Time To Advance by Chuck Pierce with Robert and Linda Heidler. It s been one year since we started publishing the Republic Prayer Calendar based on the Hebrew Lunar Cycle so for anyone joining us for the first time I want to give some background. In Genisus1:1 the very first words GOD speaks is In the beginning and according to Rabbinical teaching, the very first commandment given to the children of Israel while in Egypt was to sanctify the New Moon. From that point on the nation of GOD was to look at the Moon for the setting of their days and evenings and as a means to reconcile the times and seasons. The Biblical day begins at sundown, and ends at sundown the following day. At sundown, it is known as the dawning of a new day. Genesis 1:5, And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. Even history is set into motion as God said that the world may be understood as seven 1,000 days with the last 7 th, 1,000 year of days would be the time being the Millennial Reign of Christ. The Lunar cycle has only 29.5 days or 354 days per year whereas the solar cycle has 365 days per year. An additional month is added every 3 rd year to coordinate with the solar calendar for agricultural seasons. The reason the numerical date may not look like the previous years is because of this shift. The Month begins with the rising of the New Moon. The Hebrew year begins in spring every year in the Month of Nissan when Passover occurs. Every month is related to a specific tribe, feast and season. We are beginning the month of Sivan so keep in mind that man changed the calendar, GOD didn t. The church today misses a very important part of their history and understanding. There was never really a new church started. They worshipped and practiced Hebrew. The difference was Christ completed the requirements of the Law and made us New Men in Him. If you think about it we are literally Hebrew as we were adopted or grafted in to the Kingdom. With that in mind we will not miss out on what God is doing by honoring the feast or HIS Calendar. At the same time we will honor our Lord Jesus the Christ and we may learn something. The Biblical Month of Sivan*, begins this year at sundown on May 15 th to sundown June 12 th. *Sivan means in Hebrew Their Covering Month of Sivan (May/June)/Linked with the Tribe of Zebulun which means habitation. This was the month of giving of the Torah (the Laws of life) and giving back to GOD through our sacrifices and offerings. It is the businessman s month, and the month of alignment with the Holy Spirit, it

2 is a time to set our boundaries and align with our walk for the future, Exodus and Acts 2. Therefor we get, The Covering of Their Habitation. We are praying for our nation and the LAND as you pray each day. Please consider including these scriptures in those prayers and make request out of each. Example: Father, You have said that that you desire not the offerings of grain and lambs, but the sacrifice of obedience through Your Word. We offer up Your Word as we pray for our nation, our leadership and our people. Sivan 1 (May 15**) Offer a daily sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving. Numbers 28:24, After this manner ye shall offer daily, throughout the seven days, the meat of the sacrifice made by fire, of the sweet savors unto the Lord: it shall be offered beside the continual burnt offering, and his drink offering. Let s take a look at the significance of today and what has just happened. A Trumpet has been raised up by the Lord. "Trump Fulfills a 'Biblical Prophecy' - by Moving US Embassy to Jerusalem" [CBN News] Fox News Host Judge Jeanine Pirro says Monday's opening of the new US Embassy in Jerusalem is tinged with Biblical significance. "Donald Trump recognized history that he, like King Cyrus before him, fulfilled the Biblical prophecy of the God worshipped by Jews, Christians and, yes, Muslims, that Jerusalem is the eternal capital of the Jewish state and that the Jewish people finally deserve a righteous, free and sovereign Israel," Pirro, who has her own show on the news network, wrote in an opinion piece for the website over the weekend. Calling it a "truly historic moment in Israel's history," Pirro said Trump's decision to move the facility from Tel Aviv to the Biblical Jewish city was "cause for great celebration" and sends a clear message to Israel and rest of the world that America stands with the Jewish nation. The comparison to Trump as King Cyrus was also on the mind of Israel's prime minister during his visit to the White House in early March. Jewish tradition believes God used the pagan King Cyrus to help Jews return to the Land of Israel from their exile in Babylon and rebuild the Second Temple. 2 Chronicles 36:23 describes his role: "This is what Cyrus king of Persia says: The Lord, the God of Heaven, has given me all the kingdoms of the earth and he has appointed me to build a temple for Him at Jerusalem in Judah. Any of His people among you may go up, and may the Lord their God be with them." During his visit to the White House, which came shortly after president Trump announced his intention to move the embassy, Mr. Netanyahu compared the president to Harry Truman, Lord Balfour and King Cyrus. "I want to tell you that the Jewish people have a long memory, so we remember the proclamation of the great king, Cyrus the Great, the Persian king, 2,500 years ago," Benjamin Netanyahu said in prepared remarks. "He proclaimed that the Jewish exiles in Babylon could come back and rebuild our

3 Temple in Jerusalem. We remember a hundred years ago, Lord Balfour, who issued the Balfour Proclamation that recognized the rights of the Jewish people in our ancestral homeland. We remember 70 years ago, President Harry S. Truman was the first leader to recognize the Jewish state. And we remember how a few weeks ago, President Donald J. Trump recognized Jerusalem as Israel's capital. Mr. President, this will be remembered by our people through the ages." A sentiment also echoed by former Israeli Ambassador to the United Nations Dore Gold who told CBN News' Chris Mitchell that Jerusalem has been the capital of the Jewish people for 3,000 years. "This is the theme that's in our spiritual DNA and therefore when the president of the United States moves the US Embassy to Jerusalem and recognizes Jerusalem as Israel's capital, he is addressing something at the core of Jewish identity," Gold told CBN News. Gold further told Mitchell that Trump's embassy move can be compared to that of the Biblical king. "That was a huge charitable act on his part, which is in our historical memory and the fact that now President Trump [has moved] the US Embassy to Jerusalem, puts him in a special category and perhaps even the category with the ancient King Cyrus of Persia," Gold added. It sets the stage for the end times, so pray for Israel and America!!!!!!!!!!! Sivan 2 (May 16) Except HIS love. Isaiah 44:22 I have blotted out, as a thick cloud, thy transgressions, and, as a cloud, thy sins: return unto me; for I have redeemed thee. Ephesians 5:2 And walk in love as Christ also has loved us, and has given Himself for us an offering and sacrifice to GOD for a sweet-smelling savor. Hebrews 10:8b,10 You have neither desired, nor have You taken delight in sacrifices and offerings and whole burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin (which are offered according to the Law) 10 And in accordance with this will [of God] we [who believe in the message of salvation] have been sanctified [that is, set apart as holy for God and His purposes] through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed) once for all. Sivan 3 (May 17) Call upon HIM daily. John 14:10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works. Psalms 89:1-2 I will sing of the goodness and lovingkindness of the Lord forever; With my mouth I will make known Your faithfulness from generation to generation. For I have said, Goodness and lovingkindness will be built up forever; In the heavens [unchangeable and majestic] You will establish Your faithfulness.

4 Sivan 4 (May 18) Submit yourself to authority Hebrews 10:30-31 For we know him that hath said, Vengeance belongeth unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people. It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. Luke 7:8-10 For I also am a man subject to authority, with soldiers under me; and I say to this one, Go, and he goes, and to another, Come, and he comes, and to my slave, Do this, and he does it. Now when Jesus heard this, He was amazed at him, and turned and said to the crowd that was following Him, I say to you, not even in Israel have I found such great faith [as this man s]. 1 When the messengers who had been sent returned to the house, they found the slave in good health. Sivan 5 (May 19) Praise the LORD for that which HE has done Acts 2:46-47 Day after day they met in the temple [area] continuing with one mind, and breaking bread in various private homes. They were eating their meals together with joy and generous hearts, praising God continually, and having favor with all the people. And the Lord kept adding to their number daily those who were being saved. Psalm 150 [Full Chapter] Praise the Lord! Praise God in His sanctuary; Praise Him in His mighty heavens. Praise Him for His mighty acts; Praise Him according to [the abundance of] His greatness. Praise Him with trumpet sound; Praise Him with harp and lyre.... Jeremiah 33:9 Jerusalem will be to Me a name of joy, praise and glory before all the nations of the earth which will hear of all the good that I do for it, and they shall fear and tremble because of all the good and all the peace (prosperity, security, stability) that I provide for it. Sivan 6 (May 20) "Passover into Pentecost: We Are Living in Historical Times!" Angela Greenig, Auburn, WA Restoring Israel We know that Adam was the first man, and once sin entered the garden, it brought separation between God and man, breaking the covenant between them. God desired restoration of His relationship with man and put a redemption plan into action,

5 beginning with Abraham. The Lord promised that through Abraham, the blessings of the Father would be restored. From the time of Adam to Abraham, there were 1,948 years. In the year of 1948, Israel became accepted and recognized by the world as its own state. As we celebrate the 70th year of independence for Israel as a state, we are really celebrating the birth date of a great nation. This end-time reformation and revival fire harvest will bring the greatest outpouring that we have ever seen yet. I didn't understand it fully until I started to receive some of this revelation about the timelines and the significance between Adam and Abraham, as well as Israel and America I believe there is a divine timeline unfolding in this season that connects both Israel's independence and Donald Trump's Presidency. I believe that President Trump is called to be a mouthpiece of the Lord a trumpet/shofar that blows and prepares the way. Right now there is a time of preparation occurring, and the revival outpouring that is coming has to do with Pentecost. From Passover 2018 to Pentecost 2018, I heard the Father saying, "You'd better get ready to expect an explosion of My Holy Spirit that will radically shift nations into their position and bring restoration to families." The 180 Degree Turnaround I feel strongly that there is a pivotal 180 degree turnaround coming in these next few weeks. The Lord has His hand on Israel, on America, and on every nation. God is calling and bringing forth a reformation that will release a revolution, and you are going to see the greatest outpouring of miracles, signs and wonders. This invasion of holiness and the Holy Spirit is leading the way, and nothing is impossible to those who pray and believe. The Father says that, "You will receive what you've been tarrying and crying out for because this mission IS possible." These next few years are going to bring forth the greatest revival the world has seen; so great that we can't begin to describe the fullness of it, because I believe God's people have never encountered any revival like it ever before. I believe that we're stepping into a time and place that is going to be so amazing, and it's going to fling open every door that's been shut. I personally know this is happening, because it's happening in my own life as well, and I've been waiting for such a time as this for the building of the Kingdom. As you think about Pentecost this year, I hope it draws you to meditate on the outpouring God has specifically for your life. He has extravagant plans for each of our lives, and it's time that we step in and take ownership of our destiny and hear the mandate God is speaking to each one of us. We each have our part to play: every person, every ethnicity, every creed, and every nation are vital to fulfill the prophecy of Christ. Sivan 7 (May 21) Acts 2:1-4Amplified Bible (AMP) When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place, and suddenly a sound came from heaven like a rushing violent wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. 3 There appeared to them tongues resembling fire, which were being distributed [among them], and they rested on each one of them [as each person received the Holy Spirit].

6 And they were all filled [that is, diffused throughout their being] with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues (different languages), as the Spirit was giving them the ability to speak out [clearly and appropriately]. Acts 1:8 But you will receive power and ability when the Holy Spirit comes upon you; and you will be MY witnesses [to tell people about Me] both in Jerusalem and in all Judea, and Samaria, and even to the ends of the earth. Sivan 8 (May 22) Deuteronomy 14:2 For thou art an holy people unto the LORD thy God, and the LORD hath chosen thee to be a peculiar people unto himself, above all the nations that are upon the earth. Matthew 6:33 But first and most importantly seek (aim at, strive after) His kingdom and His righteousness [His way of doing and being right the attitude and character of God], and all these things will be given to you also. 1 John 2:3 And this is how we know [daily, by experience] that we have come to know Him [to understand Him and be more deeply acquainted with Him]: if we habitually keep [focused on His precepts and obey] His commandments (teachings). Holy Spirit is our teacher. Sivan 9 (May 23) Be careful what you speak Matthew 12:32 Whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit [by attributing the miracles done by Me to Satan] will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come. Mark 3:29 but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit and His power [by attributing the miracles done by Me to Satan] never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an everlasting sin [a sin which is unforgivable in this present age as well as in the age to come] Mark 13:11 When they take you and turn you over [to the court], do not worry beforehand about what to say, but say whatever is given to you [by God] in that hour; for it is not you who speak, but it is the Holy Spirit [who will speak through you]. Mark 13:13 You will be hated by everyone because of [your association with] My name,

7 but the one who [patiently perseveres empowered by the Holy Spirit and] endures to the end, he will be saved. Sivan 10 (May 24) Proverbs 18:20-21 A man's belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled. Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof. Galatians 5:22-23 [Full Chapter] But the fruit of the Spirit [the result of His presence within us] is love [unselfish concern for others], joy, [inner] peace, patience [not the ability to wait, but how we act while waiting], kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such things there is no law. Sivan 11 (May 25) Revelation 3:5- all of chapter He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels. John 14:23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. Sivan 12 (May 26) Romans 8:10 And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. Romans 8:35-39 (AMP) Who shall ever separate us from the love of Christ? Will tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? Just as it is written and forever remains written, For Your sake we are put to death all day long; We are regarded as sheep for the slaughter. Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors and gain an overwhelming victory through Him who loved us [so much that He died for us]. For I am convinced [and continue to be convinced beyond any doubt] that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present and threatening, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor

8 any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the [unlimited] love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Sivan 13 (May 27) 1John 3:23-4:3 AMP This is His commandment, that we believe [with personal faith and confident trust] in the name of His Son Jesus Christ, and [that we unselfishly] love and seek the best for one another, just as He commanded us. The one who habitually keeps His commandments [obeying His word and following His precepts, abides and] remains in Him, and He in him. By this we know and have the proof that He [really] abides in us, by the Spirit whom He has given us [as a gift]. Testing the Spirits Beloved, do not believe every spirit [speaking through a self-proclaimed prophet]; instead test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets and teachers have gone out into the world. By this you know and recognize the Spirit of God: every spirit that acknowledges and confesses [the fact] that Jesus Christ has [actually] come in the flesh [as a man] is from God [God is its source]; and every spirit that does not confess Jesus [acknowledging that He has come in the flesh, but would deny any of the Son s true nature] is not of God; this is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming, and is now already in the world. Sivan 14 (May 28) 2 Corinthians 9:8 And God is able to make all grace [every favor and earthly blessing] come in abundance to you, so that you may always [under all circumstances, regardless of the need] have complete sufficiency in everything [being completely self-sufficient in Him], and have an abundance for every good work and act of charity. Revelation 12:11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death. Sivan 15 (May 29) 1 John 5:14-15 This is the [remarkable degree of] confidence which we [as believers are entitled to] have before Him: that if we ask anything according to His will, [that is, consistent with His plan and purpose] He hears us. And if we know [for a fact, as indeed we do] that He hears and listens to us in whatever we ask, we [also] know [with settled and absolute knowledge] that we have [granted to us] the requests which we have asked from Him. Confident, abiding faith combined with God s power can produce amazing

9 results, if the request is in harmony with God s will. God is fully capable of doing that which man regards as impossible. Sivan 16 (May 30) This is a season of joy, power and revelation!! Isaiah 9:2-3 The people who walk in [spiritual] darkness Will see a great Light; Those who live in the dark land, The Light will shine on them. You [O God] will increase the nation, You will multiply their joy; They will rejoice before You Like the joy and jubilation of the harvest, As men rejoice when they divide the spoil [of victory]. Sivan 17 (May31) Proverbs 9:10-11 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding. For by me thy days shall be multiplied, and the years of thy life shall be increased. 2 Chronicles 1:11-12 God replied to Solomon, Because this was in your heart and you did not ask for riches, possessions or honor and personal glory, or the life of those who hate you, nor have you even asked for long life, but you have asked for wisdom and knowledge for yourself so that you may rule and administer justice to My people over whom I have made you king, wisdom and knowledge have been granted you. I will also give you riches, possessions, and honor, such as none of the kings who were before you has possessed nor will those who will come after you. Psalm 111:10 The [reverent] fear of the Lord is the beginning (the prerequisite, the absolute essential, the alphabet) of wisdom; A good understanding and a teachable heart are possessed by all those who do the will of the Lord; His praise endures forever. Sivan 18 (June 1) Hebrews 10:35-39 (AMP) Do not give up on the Holy Spirit Do not, therefore, fling away your [fearless] confidence, for it has a glorious and great reward. For you have need of patient endurance [to bear up under difficult circumstances without compromising], so that when you have carried out the will of God, you may receive and enjoy to the full what is promised. For yet in a very little while, He who is coming will come, and will not delay.

10 But My righteous one [the one justified by faith] shall live by faith [respecting man s relationship to God and trusting Him]; And if he draws back [shrinking in fear], My soul has no delight in him. But our way is not that of those who shrink back to destruction, but [we are] of those who believe [relying on God through faith in Jesus Christ, the Messiah] and by this confident faith preserve the soul. Sivan 19 (June 2) Romans 8:11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. Revelation 22:18-19 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book. Sivan 20 (June 3) Ephesians 5:14 For this reason He says, Awake, sleeper, And arise from the dead, And Christ will shine [as dawn] upon you and give you light. The light is creating a sound. It is a sound of awakening and revival, reviving those who have fallen asleep and those who are lost, and its ringing out Liberty to the captives while unveiling truth and justice to the land. Listen for the sound of GOD, the sound of shofars often herald the coming of a great event, angels and the WORD of GOD breaking forth! Be still and hear the breath of GOD! Sivan 21 (June 4) Psalm 23: 6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever. This is the season to be confident in God's daily supply of goodness. Goodness is God's blessings and favor that comes to you just because you are His. What you expect, you will receive so expect His goodness to follow you, provide for you, protect you, and promote you. Live by faith in the goodness of God and each day, be expectant, excited, and grateful as you see the evidence of God's goodness in your life. Sivan 22 (June 5) Joshua 1:8

11 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success. Proverbs 1:7 The [reverent] fear of the Lord [that is, worshiping Him and regarding Him as truly awesome] is the beginning and the preeminent part of knowledge [its starting point and its essence]; But arrogant fools despise [skillful and godly] wisdom and instruction and self-discipline. Proverbs 4:5 Get [skillful and godly] wisdom! Acquire understanding [actively seek spiritual discernment, mature comprehension, and logical interpretation]! Do not forget nor turn away from the words of my mouth Proverbs 8:35 For whoever finds me (Wisdom) finds life And obtains favor and grace from the Lord. Proverbs 9:10 The [reverent] fear of the Lord [that is, worshiping Him and regarding Him as truly awesome] is the beginning and the preeminent part of wisdom [its starting point and its essence], And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding and spiritual insight. Sivan 23 (June 6) 1 John 2:12-14 I am writing to you, little children (believers, dear ones), because your sins have been forgiven for His name s sake [you have been pardoned and released from spiritual debt through His name because you have confessed His name, believing in Him as Savior]. I am writing to you, fathers [those believers who are spiritually mature], because you know Him who has existed from the beginning. I am writing to you, young men [those believers who are growing in spiritual maturity], because you have been victorious and have overcome the evil one. I have written to you, children [those who are new believers, those spiritually immature], because you have come to know the Father. I have written to you, fathers, because you know Him who has existed from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong and vigorous, and the word of God remains [always] in you, and you have been victorious over the evil one [by accepting Jesus as Savior]. Sivan 24 (June 7) Hebrews 2:14-18 (AMP) Therefore, since [these His] children share in flesh and blood [the physical nature of mankind], He Himself in a similar manner also shared in the same [physical nature, but without sin], so that through [experiencing] death He

12 might make powerless (ineffective, impotent) him who had the power of death that is, the devil and [that He] might free all those who through [the haunting] fear of death were held in slavery throughout their lives. For, as we all know, He (Christ) does not take hold of [the fallen] angels [to give them a helping hand], but He does take hold of [the fallen] descendants of Abraham [extending to them His hand of deliverance]. Therefore, it was essential that He had to be made like His brothers (mankind) in every respect, so that He might [by experience] become a merciful and faithful High Priest in things related to God, to make atonement (propitiation) for the people s sins [thereby wiping away the sin, satisfying divine justice, and providing a way of reconciliation between God and mankind]. Because He Himself [in His humanity] has suffered in being tempted, He is able to help and provide immediate assistance to those who are being tempted and exposed to suffering. Hebrews 3:1-6 (AMP) Jesus Our High Priest Therefore, holy brothers and sisters, who share in the heavenly calling, [thoughtfully and attentively] consider the Apostle and High Priest whom we confessed [as ours when we accepted Him as Savior], namely, Jesus; He was faithful to Him who appointed Him [Apostle and High Priest], as Moses also was faithful in all God s house. Yet Jesus has been considered worthy of much greater glory and honor than Moses, just as the builder of a house has more honor than the house. For every house is built by someone, but the builder of all things is God. Now Moses was faithful in [the administration of] all God s house, [but only] as a ministering servant, [his ministry serving] as a testimony of the things which were to be spoken afterward [the revelation to come in Christ]; but Christ is faithful as a Son over His [Father s] house. And we are His house if we hold fast our confidence and sense of triumph in our hope [in Christ]. Sivan 25 (June 8) Romans 12:1-2 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. 1 Corinthians 10:16 Is the cup of blessing which we bless [at the Lord s Supper] not a sharing in the blood of Christ? [Indeed it is.] Is the bread which we break not a sharing in the body of Christ? [Indeed it is.] 1 Corinthians 10:17 Since there is one bread, we [believers] who are many are [united into] one body; for we all partake of the one bread [which represents the body of

13 Christ]. 1 Corinthians 11:29 For anyone who eats and drinks [without solemn reverence and heartfelt gratitude for the sacrifice of Christ], eats and drinks a judgment on himself if he does not recognize the body [of Christ] Sivan 26 (June 9) Romans 8:1-24 (AMP) Escape from Bondage Therefore there is now no condemnation [no guilty verdict, no punishment] for those who are in Christ Jesus [who believe in Him as personal Lord and Savior]. For the law of the Spirit of life [which is] in Christ Jesus [the law of our new being] has set you free from the law of sin and of death. For what the Law could not do [that is, overcome sin and remove its penalty, its power] being weakened by the flesh [man s nature without the Holy Spirit], God did: He sent His own Son in the likeness of sinful man as an offering for sin. And He condemned sin in the flesh [subdued it and overcame it in the person of His own Son], so that the [righteous and just] requirement of the Law might be fulfilled in us who do not live our lives in the ways of the flesh [guided by worldliness and our sinful nature], but [live our lives] in the ways of the Spirit [guided by His power]. For those who are living according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh [which gratify the body], but those who are living according to the Spirit, [set their minds on] the things of the Spirit [His will and purpose]. Now the mind of the flesh is death [both now and forever because it pursues sin]; but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace [the spiritual wellbeing that comes from walking with God both now and forever]; the mind of the flesh [with its sinful pursuits] is actively hostile to God. It does not submit itself to God s law, since it cannot, and those who are in the flesh [living a life that caters to sinful appetites and impulses] cannot please God. However, you are not [living] in the flesh [controlled by the sinful nature] but in the Spirit, if in fact the Spirit of God lives in you [directing and guiding you]. But if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Him [and is not a child of God]. If Christ lives in you, though your [natural] body is dead because of sin, your spirit is alive because of righteousness [which He provides]. 1 And if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead lives in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit, who lives in you. Sivan 27 (June 10) Romans 8:28-31 (AMP) And we know [with great confidence] that God [who is deeply concerned about us] causes all things to work together [as a plan] for good for those

14 who love God, to those who are called according to His plan and purpose. For those whom He foreknew [and loved and chose beforehand], He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son [and ultimately share in His complete sanctification], so that He would be the firstborn [the most beloved and honored] among many believers. And those whom He predestined, He also called; and those whom He called, He also justified [declared free of the guilt of sin]; and those whom He justified, He also glorified [raising them to a heavenly dignity]. What then shall we say to all these things? If God is for us, who can be [successful] against us? Sivan 28 (June 11) "Prepare Your Heart to Hear the Roar of God's Thunders Across the Earth!" by Bobby Conner, Bullard, TX In a recent prophetic encounter, I was before the Lord in an "attitude of gratitude" for all that He has done. I was thanking Him for the many uncountable examples and displays of His mighty power that we have been privileged to behold when He totally stunned me with this statement: "YOU AIN'T SEEN NOTHING YET!" Then He directed me to look into this passage in the book of Job. "Yet these are but [a small part of His doings] the outskirts of His ways or the mere fringes of His force, the faintest whisper of His voice! Who dares contemplate or who can understand the thunders of His full, magnificent power?" (Job 26:14, AMPC) It is awe-inspiring and breathtaking to understand that we have only seen the mere fringes of His force. We have only heard the faintest whisper of His voice. Even in the endless eternities of Heaven we will never come to the end of the fullness and of understanding of all God is. Wow! All that has been revealed, all that mankind has seen of God, is only the mere fringes of His force! All that we have heard is but the faintest whisper of His voice! These are parts of His ways but very small parcels even of those of His works which are visible to us. No matter how elegant one's speech nor profound their words, it would be a vain and fruitless attempt to undertake and to speak of all the wonders of Almighty God! We stand only at the outskirts of the mere fringes of His power and deeds. God's wonderful works are so countless, so great, and so far surpassing our narrow conceptions, that we can't arrive at a perfect knowledge of them But as Paul declared, "I push and press forward that I might know HIM" (see Phil. 3:13). This passage revealing the mere fringes of God's mighty force has stirred within me a fresh new fire to get to know HIM more (see Job 22:21). We must never be content to stand, as it were, at a distance with profound reverence, and take a short imperfect view of a few mere sketches of the effects of His wonder-working power.

15 Deep within our soul, a greater hunger is rising to know HIM more! This powerful transformation from sideline to frontline is fast coming upon us. Just as Ruth was brought from the corner of the field to the center of the field to a place of fruitfulness, so will the Church be brought to the forefront during these days (see Ruth 2:16). But how little a portion is heard of Him of His wisdom, power and providence. If His external and visible works be so stupendous, how glorious then must be His invisible and more internal perfections and operations! Remember "eye has not seen nor ear heard"' it is only by revelatory reception we receive more understanding of God's mighty works. Pray the plea of Psalm 90:16-17: "Oh Lord let YOUR works be seen!" For what we see or know of Him is nothing in comparison of what we do not know and of what is in Him, or is done by Him. But the thunder of His power, who can understand? Of His mighty and terrible thunder, which is often mentioned as an eminent work of God. Prepare your heart to hear the roar of God's thunders across the entire earth! Sivan 29 (June 11) Revelation 21:4-7 and He will wipe away every tear from their eyes; and there will no longer be death; there will no longer be sorrow and anguish, or crying, or pain; for the former order of things has passed away. And He who sits on the throne said, Behold, I am making all things new. Also He said, Write, for these words are faithful and true [they are accurate, incorruptible, and trustworthy]. 6 And He said to me, It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To the one who thirsts I will give [water] from the fountain of the water of life without cost. He who overcomes [the world by adhering faithfully to Christ Jesus as Lord and Savior] will inherit these things, and I will be his God and he will be My son. Sivan 30 (June 12) Revelation 21: 9-14 The New Jerusalem Then one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls filled with the seven final plagues came and spoke with me, saying, Come here, I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb. And he carried me away in the Spirit to a vast and lofty mountain, and showed me the holy (sanctified) city of Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God, having God s glory [filled

16 with His radiant light]. The brilliance of it resembled a rare and very precious jewel, like jasper, shining and clear as crystal. It had a massive and high wall, with twelve [large] gates, and at the gates [were stationed] twelve angels; and on the gates the names of the twelve tribes of the sons of Israel were written. On the east side [there were] three gates, on the north three gates, on the south three gates, and on the west three gates. And the wall of the city had twelve foundation stones, and on them the twelve names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb (Christ). I once again want to give thanks to Roger Waters for his effort in helping present this calendar, and to Chuck Pierce, Robert and Linda Heidler from their book A Time to Advance.. plus, "Passover into Pentecost: We Are Living in Historical Times!"
