John 4:23 “But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.”

DAILY READING Galatians 2; Jeremiah 48; Psalm 143

The month of August was named after the first Roman Emperor, Augustus.

Emperor Augustus led Rome’s transformation from a republic to a great empire. During his 40-years reign, Augustus nearly doubled the size of the empire, adding territories in Europe and Asia Minor and securing alliances that gave him effective rule from Britain to India. He spent much of his time in consolidating power in the provinces and instituting systems that helped expand Rome.
When Augustus Caesar died in A.D. 14, his reported last words to his subjects were, “I found Rome of clay; I leave it to you of marble.”
He was applauded and celebrated by the people of Rome and his name was enshrined in the 8th month of August because several of his major victories were recorded in this 8th month of the year.

Apart from being associated with the Roman emperor, the word “August” also has meaning and usage in the English language. The word ‘August’ is used to refer to someone having great importance and of the highest social class, marked by majestic dignity or grandeur.
It also means “consecrated” or “venerable’.

From all these we can see that August is a unique month, loaded with so much possibilities and promises.
Indeed the month of August is already foreordained as special, highly esteemed and glorious.
It is a month that will confer majestic dignity on us, as we deliberately tap into the grace embedded in this 8th month.

Spiritually the number 8 represents a new beginning. In the Bible, male children were to be circumcised on the 8th day, marking a new beginning in their lives. The number 8 therefore symbolizes circumcision of the heart through Christ and the receiving of the Holy Spirit.

This month therefore will open us up to new dimensions in our relationship with God.
It is certainly, our season of deeper intimacy with the Spirit. And as we begin to seek and worship God in Spirit and in truth, He will begin to do a new thing in our lives.

In this 8th month God will lift us up to new heights as we coperate with His Word and His Spirit.
It is certainly our season of exploits where the power in the Blood of Jesus will address every redundancy in our businesses, finances, career, health, family and relationships.
It is indeed our time to experience divine speed and acceleration..

Therefore on this first day of August, let us tap into the abundant grace available in this unique month.
It is certainly our new day and era to experience our own manifestaion of the prophecy of wonders for this year.
It is surely our gateway month to sudden miracles.
And through the Blood of Jesus we shall not miss the portion that God has ordained for us in this special month.

PRAYER: Lord, Please grant me the grace to press in to all You have ordained for me in this unique new month. Indeed as I push in the place of prayer, I know I have the victory by the Blood in Jesus Name.
