The land currently known as the Sultanate of Oman has had several names over the centuries, many of which are still in common use around us. Let's explore these names and their spiritual significance.

Mazun/Mazoon. The Sassanid (neo-Persian) empire ruled over much of the Middle East and Asia from approximately 200 AD until the Islamic conquest around 650 AD. They called this province 'Mazun' which means a land of abundant water.  The Arabic word connotes clouds, rainfall, and flowing water, and refers to the greater water resources that existed in past centuries, and subsequent agriculture and greenery.

The early church diocese in Sohar was known as Bet Mazunaye, reflecting the name of the region in the 3rd-5th centuries.

As the 11th-century Omani historian Al 'Awtabi described it: "Mazun, oh friends, is a beautiful country, a country rich in fields and palm trees, of pastures and inexhaustible sources."

Declaration for Mazun:
“Rain down, O heavens, from above, Let the clouds pour down righteousness [all the blessings of God]; Let the earth open up, let salvation bear fruit, And righteousness spring up with it; I, the Lord, have created it."  Isaiah 45:8 (AMP)

• We bless this land once known as Mazun to receive the rain of God's blessings--in both natural and supernatural realms. 
• We bless this land to bear the fruit of salvation, and reap the abundant harvest!
