The children of Israel experienced a new dawn when they left Egypt in circumstances that only God could have made possible. If the Lord could give a new dawn to a nation of slaves, I know that you will also experience a new dawn this season in Canada, Mexico and South America in Jesus’ Name.
The Lord told Moses and Aaron that the month of their exodus from Egypt would be the beginning of months to them. In other words, it would become the first month of a new year to them. To someone attending this RCCG ACT Convention, regardless of the fact that we are in June, this shall be the beginning of months to you because you are entering into your new year this month. You cannot afford to wait till the last day of this year to receive that miracle you desire so much, because the Lord is able and willing to do it now. He has done it before and He will still do it again.
We experienced this dimension of the Lord’s move in Nigeria a couple of years ago. The country was severely under the siege of a totalitarian ruler, and the children of God were seriously praying for the country’s deliverance. During one of our monthly Holy Ghost Service meetings, the Lord suddenly spoke to me that I should instruct the congregation to greet each other “Happy New Year”! Amazingly, this was the middle of the year. As usual, I obeyed my Commander-in-Chief; the brethren greeted each other “Happy New Year”, and we closed the meeting. Barely 48 hours afterwards, the siege over the nation was lifted. We announce to Canada, Mexico and South America that it is a new dawn, and so shall it be in Jesus’ Name.
After declaring a new dawn for the Israelites, God dealt with the enemies that held them bound, so much so that their king called for Moses and Aaron in the middle of the night, begging them to lead the Israelites out of the land. These were the same people he had held in captivity for years (Exodus 12:31-33). Beloved, Psalm 126:1 says:
“When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream.”
When the Lord brings you to a new dawn, even your neighbours may not easily recognise you, because your level would have changed drastically. Can you believe that Pharaoh even asked Moses to pray for him! I decree into your life this day, by the time the Lord accomplishes what He intends to do for you, your enemies will come begging for intercessory prayers in Jesus’ Name.
A new dawn is also a fresh opportunity to get things right. I challenge you to spend time reflecting on how far you have come and see if you are really where God expects you to be at this time. If you are lagging behind, then you must take advantage of this new dawn to put everything in its proper place so you can fulfil God’s expectations for your life.
Determine that you will spend and be spent for God. Make a commitment to God that in this new season you will please Him by preaching the gospel to every sinner you come across. Promise God that you will fast and won’t let your flesh control you. Determine to keep to the precepts of God’s word, and don’t ever let it cross your mind to go back to the Egypt of sin again.
I have good news for Canada, Mexico and South America: it is a new dawn!
