The fourth month is the 4-week season following the third month. In the Gregorian calendar, this is the 30-day month of April. In the Hebrew calendar, the fourth month is the 29-day month of Tammuz. Nations, states, organizations, families, and individuals are also to count their fourth months from the day of their birth. All fourth months have common characteristics. Biblical patterns for understanding the fourth month are the fourth day of creation narrative, the fourth book and chapters of the Bible, and Bible passages mentioning the fourth month.
The Fourth Month is a fourth day of creation month. On the fourth day of creation, God made the sun, moon, and stars to rule, divide, and give light. He also designed and intended the luminaries to be for signs and for seasons. The fourth season is a fight-back season for the kingdom of datkness. It is a season you must aided by light from the Word of God (the Sun), the Spirit of God (the Moon), and wise counsellors (the stars). Darkness seeks to overtake people in fourth seasons but God has given you light for the season.
The fourth month is a Book of Numbers month. Going through the fourth month of the year is like journeying through the fourth book of the Bible. The book of Numbers is the fourth book of the Bible and is applicable to the fourth month of the year. In the fourth book of the Bible, Israel went through tests and trials. Many leaders and men of war failed and fell in this book (including Aaron and Miriam). Israel fought major wilderness-battles in this book also won a number victories. This is a season to follow God closely and not give in to your lower emotions or appetites. Israel suffered greatly in the book of Numbers because of failing to believe and obey God. The fourth chapters of the Bible also indicate fourth month is a month of intense spiritual warfare. Boko Haram terrorists abducted 276 schools from Chibok (in North-east Nigeria) in the fourth of the year. Abraham Lincoln was assassinated in the fourth month of 1865. Benito Mussolini and Adolf Hitler died in the fourth month of 1945. The month of April is the month of Passover in most years. Make this fourth month a month of deep spiritual engagements. Up your spiritual sensitivity, and be led by God’s Word and Spirit. Do not be led by your senses, emotion, and appetites.
The fourth month is a Second Chronicles – Job 12 season. Going through the fourth month of a leap year is like journeying from the first chapter of Second Chronicles to the 12th chapter of Job. The following 28 days (14th week, 15th week, 16th week, and 17th week) express the the 14th -17th books of the Bible (Second Chronicles, Ezra, Nehemiah and Esther). The last 2 days of the fourth month expresses the first 12 chapters of the book of Job. So, the fourth month of the year is a season of pressures, breakthroughs, intense spiritual resistance, and divine favor flowing from high places of power and authority. The fourth month is a month of spiritual warfare. It is a time to engage all spiritual forces available to you. Pray and fast in this month. Jehoshaphat fasted in the 14th book of the Bible. Ezra fasted in the 15th book of the Bible. Nehemiah fasted in the 16th book of the Bible. Esther, Mordecai, and the Jews fasted in the 17th book of the Bible. This month, the Lord will grant you victories as you engage the forces of heaven to go with you through the month.
The fourth month of the year is a fourth-seven-books-of-the-Bible month. Going through the fourth month is also like going through the fourth seven books of the Bible (Song of Solomon, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Lamentations, Ezekiel, Daniel, and Hosea). The fourth seven books of the Bible cover a season of darkness for the Jews. They were threatened by Assyrians and Babylonians because of spiritual declension. Isaiah and Jeremiah prophesied before the captivity. Ezekiel and Daniel experienced the captivity. The fourth seven books of the Bible are full of revelation-encounters. The fourth month is a month of spiritual encounters. It is a season to see, hear, and declare. This is the season of people who are spiritually sensitive. Position yourself to hear, see, obey, and declare.
BIBLE PASSAGES THAT MENTION THE FOURTH MONTH
The Bible reveals the following three things about the fourth month:
1. It is a season of hunger and scarcity
l. It is a season of open heavens for visions
3. It is a season of fasting
1. THE FOURTH MONTH IS THE MONTH OF SCARCITY AND HUNGER AND HARDSHIP
2 Kings 25:1-4: Now it came to pass in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, on the tenth day of the month, that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and all his army came against Jerusalem and encamped against it; and they built a siege wall against it all around. [2] So the city was besieged until the eleventh year of King Zedekiah. [3] By the ninth day of the fourth month the famine had become so severe in the city that there was no food for the people of the land. [4] Then the city wall was broken through, and all the men of war fled at night by way of the gate between two walls, which was by the king’s garden, even though the Chaldeans were still encamped all around against the city. And the king went by way of the plain.
2. THE FOURTH MONTH IS WHEN THE HEAVENS OPEN FOR VISIONS
Ezekiel 1:1: Now it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, on the fifth day of the month, as I was among the captives by the River Chebar, that the heavens were opened and I saw visions of God.
3. THE FOURTH MONTH IS A SEASON OF FASTING
Zechariah 8:19: “Thus says the LORD of hosts: ‘The fast of the fourth month, The fast of the fifth, The fast of the seventh, And the fast of the tenth, Shall be joy and gladness and cheerful feasts For the house of Judah. Therefore love truth and peace.’
PRAYERS FOR THE FOURTH MONTH
1. O Lord, strengthen me to engage spiritual forces for the battles of this fourth month. Strengthen me to pray and fast as Moses fasted in the fourth book of the Bible; as Esther, Mordecai and the Jews fasted in the fourth chapter of Esther; and as Jesus fasted in the 4th chapters of Matthew and Luke.
2. O Lord, open doors for me and grant me favors from high places as it happened to the Jews in the 15th book of the Bible, to Nehemiah in the 26th book of the Bible, and to Esther in the 17th book of the Bible.
3. O Lord deliver me from the plots, envy, efforts, and attacks of evil men. Expose and judge the wickedness of the wicked in this month. Rise and fight for me against the spirits of Sanballat, Tobiah, and Haman.
4. O Lord, keep me from falling into foolishness and error in this season. Help me to be alert and sensitive and discerning. Deliver me from temptations of the evil one.
5. O Lord, make some powerful seats and positions vacant in this month for your people. Let trouble makers go down in this month.
