A MONTH OF LIGHT AND WARMTH
5/06/24 A MONTH OF LIGHT AND WARMTH
The Lord has been emphasizing both light and warmth this month. It is a nice change from a difficult winter.
My light is within you. How to shine. You must open up. It’s My Spirit within you.
Matthew 5:16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.
CONFIRMATION THE HEBREW MONTH IYAR – RADIANCE AND LIGHT
I have come to accept and realize that often the Lord gives me Words that connect with the meaning of the Hebrew months. It is exciting to notice these connections!
ROBERT HIEDLER: Yar is the second of the twelve months of the Jewish calendar. In the Bible, the month of Iyar is often called the month of Ziv, meaning “radiance.” This month is commonly referred to as the month of (natural) healing. Its name is an acronym for “I AM God your Healer.”
(Exodus 15:26)Iyar is associated with the tribe of Issachar, which is known for it’s anointing to understand the times and to understand secrets.
FROM THE WWW
In the prophets, Iyar is called “the Month of Radiance” (Chodesh Ziv),4 because it is when the trees are bright with blossoms. Iyar Also Means LightI Yar is related to the Hebrew word for light, “ohr.” Midrash8 explains that it was named for the manna which began to fall during Iyar,9 a month after the Jews left Egypt. The manna was given with divine radiance. The Akkadian equivalent of Iyar, Ayyāru, means flower.
HOPE FOR WARMER WEATHER
I saw something come from the ceiling and circled Weds on the calendar of this week.
5/09/24 UPDATE: Weds turned out to be the end of the consistent rain. We had 17 days of rain in April and rain for 8 straight days in May. The forecast was for warm/hot weather after that. This was an answer to prayer because I needed to have broader window for daily walking, needed to finish planting garden, and needed warmer weather, period! It was just one very long winter this year.
3/07/24: April showers bring May flowers.
5/09/23: PRAYER – WARM MY SOUL TODAY
This morning I was thinking that there is something very beautiful about the sun light on the trees in our bay window. It is such a pleasant change after so many grey days in winter and spring. The sun really draws my heart and yearnings to be outside. To be closer and soak it in. Dear Jesus I seek You, Your warmth and ask that we connect and that You will warm my heart and soul today.
HEARD: Changing weather pattern.
A WARM WELCOME
When I was looking at the watercolor painting I did yesterday, I heard A warm welcome. The painting is called A Desired Habitation. The painting went through a lot as I spilled an entire glass of water on it!
Psalm 107:6-9 Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, and he delivered them out of their distresses. 7 And he led them forth by the right way, that they might go to a city of habitation. 8 Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men! 9 For he satisfies the longing soul, and fills the hungry soul with goodness.
