While many have heard of the month of Tammuz before as a time of mourning when the temple was destroyed and the Jews were banished from the land, it is also a time for us today to draw insight for what God may be preparing us for the days ahead.
In a service honoring the month of Tammuz, prophetic voice Chuck Pierce gave a warning specifically over what to expect this month and a few months beyond.
“This month, there will be a war over the desire of your heart,” Pierce says. “Therefore, we have to understand that if we focus on our harvest ahead and see the path through that harvest field, we will be able to experience the desires of our heart.”
“The next three months will be our most difficult to maneuver,” he continues. “If you remain in Him and the peace of God around you, you’ll be able to make it into a greater harvest than you’ve ever known.”

Pierce explains that Tammuz is the name of a Babylonian god. However, Tammuz represents something much bigger and more biblical than what we’ve thought. Pierce believes that this month in particular will be a dichotomy to either take you down a path of idolatry or bring restoration and redemption.
“You can repent. You can change your mind, recover and keep moving,” Pierce says.
Pierce reminds listeners that what repentance truly is, is the changing of your mind. Repentance goes much further than just expressing that you are sorry for doing something. Repentance, then, cannot be exchanged for remorse.
“It’s a gift,” Pierce explains. “It’s a gift from God, and once you embrace the gift, you start thinking differently. And once you activate repentance, it takes an action of faith so that you shift into your path.”
“It has a totally rewiring of your thought processes. And why we have to talk about repentance is nothing we should ever shy away from because it’s a gift. But it requires the whole person to press in to the One who made them and the only One that can really change them,” Pierce continues.
During this time of testing of the heart and mind, let us draw closer to Christ and seek His face. If repentance is needed, let us not fear of repenting to know God more and go deeper with Him.
