  2. THE MONTH: SHEVAT The Hebrew meaning of Shevat is rod or staff. A staff can be used as a symbol of power, or as a cane to lean on.

  4. Ps 92:12-15 The righteous will flourish like a palm tree, they will grow like a cedar of Lebanon; 13 planted in the house of the Lord, they will flourish in the courts of our God. 14 They will still bear fruit in old age, they will stay fresh and green, 15 proclaiming, "The Lord is upright; he is my Rock, and there is no wickedness in him." NIV

  5. THE TRIBE: ASHER • Gen 30:12-13 And Leah's maid Zilpah bore Jacob a second son. 13 Then Leah said, "I am happy, for the daughters will call me blessed." So she called his name Asher.

  9. Star Cluster: AquariusTHE WATERBEARER Eighty-One Stars make up this constellation and they confirm the sureness of Yeshua’s great end time harvest of His Body. Aquarius is represented by the water bucket or pail. The water bucket is an object that serves someone – It is used to draw water and also is symbolizes the carrier.

  10. WHO IS BRINGING YOU WATER? The symbolism of the water bucket is very important. A bucket has but one function, design, and purpose: to draw and carry water. That is, to be a vessel of transmission. Its whole essence is one of serving. It is not an end unto itself. It is meant to be a vehicle for something else.

  11. BUILDING BLOCKS • Isaiah 12:2-6Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. The Lord, the Lord, is my strength and my song; He has become my salvation." 3 With joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation. 4 In that day you will say: "Give thanks to the Lord, call on his name; make known among the nations what he has done, and proclaim that his name is exalted. 5 Sing to the Lord, for he has done glorious things; let this be known to all the world. 6 Shout aloud and sing for joy, people of Zion, for great is the Holy One of Israel among you." NIV

  12. Titus 3:4-7 4 But when the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared, 5 he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit, 6 whom he poured out on us generously through Jesus Christ our Savior, 7 so that, having been justified by his grace, we might become heirs having the hope of eternal life. NIV • Ephesians 5:25-28 25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her 26 to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, 27 and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. NIV

  13. Hebraic Alphabet: Tzadik צ • Hebraic Alphabet Letter: Tzadik צ – your righteousness becomes your foundation. Symbolic of harvest! • This letter means righteous, just, righteous one. The root means to be or make right KJV - cleanse, clearself, (be, do) just (-ice, -ify, -ifyself), (be turn to) righteous (-ness). • The letter tzadik (צ) symbolizes the true tzadik (“righteous one”)which is our foundation – the foundation of the world. The Righteous One is the Lord Jesus Christ. • JEHOVAH-TZIDKENU

  14. BUILDING BLOCKS • Ps 22:30-31A seed shall serve him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation.31 They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done this. KJV • Ps 22:31-32 31(30) A descendant will serve him; the next generation will be told of Adonai. 32(31) They will come and proclaim his righteousness to a people yet unborn, that he is the one who did it.CJB • Ps 89:14 Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne; love and faithfulness go before you. NIV

  15. Proverbs 10:25 As the whirlwind passeth, so is the wicked no more: but the righteous is an everlasting foundation. KJV • Hab 2:4 Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith. KJV • Isaiah 1:26 I will restore your judges as at the first, And your counselors as at the beginning. Afterward you shall be called the city of righteousness, the faithful city." NKJV

  16. Romans 3:21-26 But now a righteousness from God, apart from law, has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. 22 This righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference, 23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. 25 God presented him as a sacrifice of atonement, through faith in his blood. He did this to demonstrate his justice, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished— 26 he did it to demonstrate his justice at the present time, so as to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus.

  17. Rom 5:17-19 For if, by the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive God's abundant provision of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ. 18 Consequently, just as the result of one trespass was condemnation for all men, so also the result of one act of righteousness was justification that brings life for all men. 19 For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous. NIV

  18. The fruit of the Righteous is the tree of life…

  19. Isaiah 54:14-15;17 In righteousness you will be established: Tyranny will be far from you; you will have nothing to fear. Terror will be far removed; it will not come near you. 15 If anyone does attack you, it will not be my doing; whoever attacks you will surrender to you. no weapon forged against you will prevail, and you will refute every tongue that accuses you. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and this is their vindication from me," declares the Lord. NIV

  20. Organ: Esophagus & Stomach – reprogram the way you eat! You’re tasting is producing the life of nourishment for your future. We want to be sure we are eating the word. He wants our stomach and esophagus healed whereas January and February we are able to digest whatever He gives us. • Sense: Taste, be eating right spiritually. The rectified sense of eating is the special sense of the righteous.

  21. THERE IS A CURE to spiritual stagnancy and complacency. There is a secret to renewal and rebirth, and that is the Torah itself. For another theme runs parallel to Shevat's theme of rebirth, connected to the spiritual root of this time of year: It was on the first day of this Hebrew month of Shevat, that Moses began to recite the book of Deuteronomy to the people of Israel – "on the other side of the Jordan, in the land of Moab, Moses began to explain this Torah... "(Deut. 1:5) THIS PROCESS continued for 37 days, until his death on the seventh day of the month of Adar.

  22. BUILDING BLOCKS • Ps 34:8 Taste and see that the Lord is good; NIV • Matt 4:4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. KJV • Proverbs 13:25 The righteous eats to the satisfying of his soul, But the stomach of the wicked shall be in want. NKJV • Ps 119:103 How sweet are your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth! NIV

  23. Psalm 103:1-6Bless the Lord, O my soul; And all that is within me, bless His holy name! 2 Bless the Lord, O my soul, And forget not all His benefits: 3 Who forgives all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases, 4 Who redeems your life from destruction, Who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies, 5 Who satisfies your mouth with good things, So that your youth is renewed like the eagle's. 6 The Lord executes righteousness And justice for all who are oppressed. NKJV • Psalm 17:15And I — in righteousness I will see your face; when I awake, I will be satisfied with seeing your likeness. NIV

  24. INSTRUCTION FOR CONSTRUCTION • A month to read the book of Daniel; and you may want to do a Daniel fast. • It’s a month to develop a plan to sustain the generations. Time to regroup over your children/disciples, those you are mentoring, those who are working with you, and the younger generation that you may be mentoring. • It’s a month to shout ‘my blessings are on the way.’ That’s the Key about this month; there’s a shout within you that says - the wagons are coming, the water pots are coming, and my thirst will be quenched. • The natural element is associated with Shevat is wind. Out of the four elements (wind, earth, water, and fire), wind is the least tangible. It often acts as a conduit for other things. It transports moisture, and brings seedlings and other particles of nature from one location to another. Earth, fire and water are more important for what they are, than for what they do
