Exhortation
Glory to God Almighty for His abiding presence with us and the victory over every challenge all the way. The Power of Resurrection is forever alive and will continue to answer for us in every dimensions of our lives in Jesus' Name (Amen). Thanks be unto God for all He has been doing since the beginning of this year. Our testimonies know no bounds; they are unlimited because the LORD's mercy endures forever. No doubt, we shall witness even more of His goodness this month.
"Except the LORD builds the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain" -Psalms 127:1.
This month, the LORD has given us the theme "Dew of Heaven". The Dew of Heaven has a deep spiritual meaning and it symbolizes certain mysteries in God's own definition. The "Dew of Heaven" symbolizes all-season and all-round blessings. Dews are not as much as the rain by volume, but they are far more powerful. They can not be restricted to any time or season of the year, unlike the rain. No force of nature can stop them. This is the spiritual implication of the "Dew of Heaven". We shall examine more of these below, in the light of the scriptures.
WHAT IS THE DEW OF HEAVEN?
1) The Dew of Heaven is the supernatural grace (of God) upon our efforts (our work, our pursuits, our intentions and all we lay our hands upon to do - Psalm 127:1, Proverbs 10:22, 1Corinth 15:10.
2) The Dew of Heaven symbolizes the anointing or supernatural force of the Holy Spirit that takes us far beyond our human strength. That is, the Dew helps us to achieve feats that are beyond mere human capacity. Zech.4:6-9. Psalm 23:5-6 says, "...Thou Anointest My Head With Oil; my cup runneth over". Note that the statement "MY CUP RUNNETH OVER". means "beyond my personal strength or ability or expectation..."
3) The Dew of Heaven symbolizes supernatural force or anointing from God, for success, healing, deliverance, breakthrough, etc. The Scripture says: "For the seed shall be prosperous; the vine shall give her fruit, and the ground shall give her increase, and the heavens shall give their dew; and I WILL CAUSE the remnant of this people to possess all these things" -Zechariah 8:12 [I WILL CAUSE means "I will enable"]. This is why Paul says in Philippians 4:13, "I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me". In Romans 8:26, he says, "Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities..." Isaiah 40:29-31 also says "He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength...But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint".
4) It Is The Symbol Of All-round And All Seasons Fruitfulness Upon God's Children. This is because even though the dew may be small in volume compared to the rain, it is more powerful than rain. The rain is only permitted to come down during rainy season but the dew comes upon the earth all seasons - rainy season, dry season, harmattan, etc. This is the supremacy of the dew over the rain. Little wonder, Isaac blessed Jacob with the dew by saying, "Therefore God give thee of t 11he dew of heaven, and THE FATNESS OF THE EARTH, and PLENTY OF CORN AND WINE" -Genesis 27:28 [Fruitfulness Emphasized here].
God wants to release His dew (His unction) upon all our efforts and bless all that concern us. He has opened the door of breakthrough and testimonies by the release of supernatural dew and the unction for all-round fruitfulness. Nothing can stop it, except careless and faithless attitudes to this sure prophecy. This is what God has prepared for His children this month, and shall be our lot throughout this year, in Jesus' Name.
The "Dew of Heaven" was the dew released upon Jacob to give him "the fatness of the field" (Genesis 27:28-29). It was the dew that rained "manna" for the Israelites (Exodus 16:14-31). It was the dew that brought all-round prosperity upon God's people (the Israelites) as prophesied through Zechariah (Zechariah 8:12). This "Dew of Heaven" is evergreen. It is God's reward for those that diligently seek Him in faith (Hebrews 11:6).
Because of the release of the "Dew of Heaven", no forces can limit our breakthrough and no demonic power shall be able to attack our blessings (Proverbs 10:22). However, for us to be rightly positioned for the "Dew of Heaven" and key into it, we have a part to play. This includes:
(i) Walk with God in faith and agreement, believing that what He has said, He will also do (Hebrews 11:1-2, 6, Numbers 23:19-20, Exodus 16:23-30, 2Corinthians 1:20).
(ii) Obedience to God (Isaiah 1:19, Deuteronomy 28:13).
(iii) Pay your tithes; do not rob God (Malachi 3:8-12)
(iv) Seek & Serve God diligently (Hebrews 11:6, Deuteronomy 28:1, Joshua 22:5, 2Peter 1:5, Romans 12:8).
(v) Do your work/business diligently (Proverbs 4:23, Proverbs 10:4, 12:24, 13:4, 21:5).
(vi) Seek divine wisdom (Exodus 31:1-6, 35:26-35, Proverbs 3:13, 19, 4:7).
(vii) Avoid dubious attitudes and dealings; take on the righteousness of God in all you do (Proverbs 14:34, Psalm 89:16).
(viii) Engage jealously and tenaciously in God's kingdom projects (Proverbs 11:24-28, Haggai 1:1-11).
Paying attention to all the above helps us to key into this Prophetic Declaration. As we connect in prayer with the throne of grace this month, there shall be a supernatural release of the "Dew of Heaven" upon us and all that pertain to us, in Jesus' Name (Amen).
Remember, with Jesus Christ, Victory is Sure!
Shalom!
