During our recent Saturday night gathering at Launch Houston, Marcy Leute delivered a profound message about the significance of the month of Sivan in God's calendar. Her reflections provided a fresh perspective on aligning our lives with God's timing. The Journey from Deliverance to Covenant Marcy contextualized the month of Sivan within Israel's journey. The first month, Nissan, symbolizes deliverance from Egypt. The second month, Iyar, represents transformation and preparation. This journey culminates in Sivan when the Torah is given at Mount Sinai, highlighting a spiritual journey from deliverance to covenant. Significance of Sivan and Pentecost Marcy drew parallels between Mount Sinai and Pentecost. At Sinai, God gave the Torah to Moses, establishing His covenant with Israel. On Pentecost, the Holy Spirit descended upon the disciples, marking the birth of the Church. These events remind us of God's desire to dwell among His people and empower them for His purposes. Covenant and Power Marcy emphasized the importance of understanding and living in the covenant God has established with us. She highlighted God's promise in Deuteronomy 5 and Exodus 19 to make Israel His treasured possession if they keep His covenant. This covenant signifies a direct relationship with God, bringing a fresh outpouring of the Holy Spirit during Pentecost. First Fruits and Waiting on the Lord Marcy encouraged us to bring our first fruits to God as a regular practice, symbolizing our trust in His provision and commitment to His timing. Waiting on the Lord positions us to receive His power and revelation, leading to unexpected blessings and deeper insights into God's character. Unity and Community Marcy concluded by emphasizing unity and community. Just as the Israelites waited together at Mount Sinai, we must support one another as we seek to align with God's calendar. Each person has a unique role and contribution, and valuing each member fosters a strong, unified community. A Call to Action As we move into Sivan, Marcy's message calls us to: Reflect on Our Covenant: Remember and honor God's covenant with us. Offer Our First Fruits: Regularly bring first fruits to God. Wait on the Lord: Cultivate patience and readiness for His power. Foster Unity: Support and value each member of our community. Marcy's insights remind us that aligning with God's calendar is about entering a deeper relationship with Him and experiencing His promises. As we embrace Sivan, let's open our hearts to the new revelations and blessings God has in store.
