I don't understand the madness about today being the eight day of the eight month of the year 2008. What is the significance of the date and why are churches scrambling here and there to hold programmes today?

Someone should please help me out.

8 signify a new beginning; 05/08/08 signify a new beginning in your life that is why churches and the believers are taking this day serious.

2008 is a year with prophetic significance. In the Scriptures, the number ‘8' is a highly prophetic and historic number.

· It is a number of new beginnings.

· It is the number that connects the end of an old phase with the inception of a new one.

· It is a number associated with change, new trends and innovations.

· It is a number associated with circumcision and new covenant realities.

· It is associated with rainbow - Noah, wife, Shem, Ham, Japheth and their wives - eight people started the world again after the flood (Genesis 8:cool.

· 2008 is also a leap year.
- A year for personal and national circumcision
- A year of new beginnings, new trends in transformation
- A year of raising new altars and entering into new covenants
- A year for rapid and radical change in the church
- A year for the development of prophetic stones to throw at Goliath
- A year when new things as outlined in the Scriptures will manifest

This is what your pastor told you right?

Unfortunately sometimes our pastors talk from their heads and not their hearts; their spirits.

o boy where did you get all these from? in that case maybe you will tell me what 07-07-07 meant, where in the bible is it written that 08-08-08 is a date of new beginning?everyday is a new beginning with God, 08-08-08 is a normal date and like any other date, Redeem have their annual convention which holds annually at this time of the year, MFM have their special programmes too,maybe you can support your claim biblically and not link Noah's ark and the new world with number *8*
