Amen.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008080;\">Let me just refresh your mind in knowing\u00a0something&#8217;s\u00a0about Month OCTOBER; month October, is the TENTH month of the year in the Julian and Gregorian calendars &#8211; and\u00a0it&#8217;s\u00a0the sixth of seven months to have a length of 31 days. In the northern hemisphere October is usually considered the second month of AUTUMN and is commonly associated with the season of SPRING in parts of the Southern Hemisphere, and AUTUMN in parts of the Northern Hemisphere, where it is the seasonal equivalent to April in the Southern Hemisphere and vice versa.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008080;\">The Month October was originally the eighth month of the Roman calendar. And the name October, comes from the Latin word &#8220;OCTO&#8221; meaning eight. Later, it became the 10th month when January and February were added to the Calendar. And spiritually, the number \u201ceight\u201d is said to be a symbol of NEW BEGINNING signifying BLESSEDNESS which encompasses &#8211; WEALTH, PROSPERITY,\u00a0PEACE\u00a0and FERTILITY and more of such like. And month October is normally the time of the year when farmers harvest their crops &#8211;\u00a0indicating\u00a0productivity and abundance. That to me\u00a0it&#8217;s\u00a0important, such that, as we are &#8220;BEING TRANSFORMED [TRANSFIGURED] BY THE RENEWING OF YOUR MIND&#8221;, we can then ensure the assured BLESSEDNESS of God in Christ Jesus stead in our redemption.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008080;\">Therefore, as we take on a daily step of Faith through this month in an onward and upward trajectory, I want you to know that as you are &#8220;BEING TRANSFORMED [TRANSFIGURED] BY THE RENEWING OF YOUR MIND&#8221; in the grace, in Christ Jesus stead,\u00a0you will see yourself\u00a0thrive,\u00a0not\u00a0just\u00a0survive,\u00a0in\u00a0His\u00a0grace.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008080;\">And through the Month, as you follow along the teaching to explore on the theme by God&#8217;s enabling grace, you will come to know what and why the theme is so relevant for you in the now and all about God&#8217;s FULNESS in the theme; and in the cause of the expository teaching and preaching on the theme as entitled &#8211; &#8220;BEING TRANSFORMED [TRANSFIGURED] BY THE RENEWING OF YOUR MIND&#8221; &#8211; may you find the enabling of God&#8217;s grace in our redemption, in Christ Jesus stead.
