Day 248 is the third day of the 36th week; the third day of the first week in the sixth 49 days; the third day in the sixth 49 days. It is a third-season day. It is September 5 in a clear year and September 4 in a leap year. The basic Bible patterns for understanding Day 248 are
The narrative of the third day of creation.
The third section of the 36th book of the Bible.
The third 10 books of the Bible.
Day 248 is a third day of creation day. On the third day of creation, God began to redeem the earth from the dominion of the waters. He first gave command to the waters under the heaven to be gathered together in one place. This makes the third day a season for the overthrow of burdens and weights. It is a season to overthrow, from above, oppressive powers dominating the earth. After that, He commanded the dry ground to appear. This makes the third day the season for the manifestation of hidden realities, people, platforms, and purposes. This is the season when ‘hidden’ men receive calls from heaven to come on the scene. The third season is a season of revelations. On the third day of creation, also, God commanded the dry ground to bring forth vegetation. This means the third is for generating life and sustenance. The third season is when demand is placed on men to get down to work. Dry ground appeared and began its work on the third day. Work begins on the third day! The work of the sixth 49 days of the year begins today – whether it is the overthrow and displacement of the wicked, the possessing of your inheritance, or the generation of life and sustenance. Work starts today! This is a day of connecting heaven and earth by removing the waters separating them.
Day 248 is a book of Leviticus day in the sixth 49 days of the year. The book of Leviticus is about connecting heaven and earth through sacrifices and offering and a holy and consecrated priestly ministry. It is about offering acceptable worship to God. Day 248 is a day of priestly intercession. It is a day of lifting and moving heavy weights off people’s lives through intercession. It is a day to stand in the gap for people’s lives and concerns. God calls men to stand in the gap in third seasons. Why? Death and destruction visit in the third season (Genesis 3; Exodus 3; First Samuel 3; Second Samuel 3; Second Kings 3; Esther 3; John 3). So, the priestly ministry is an anti-death ministry. Without intercession in a third season day, it can be disastrous. Could that be the reason the third book of the Bible is about intervention and prevention of divine judgment or wrath?
Day 248 is a Zephaniah 1: 14-18 day. In this section, the prophet introduced the day of the Lord and says it is near. Zephaniah 1:14-18 says, “The great day of the LORD is near; It is near and hastens quickly. The noise of the day of the LORD is bitter; There the mighty men shall cry out. That day is a day of wrath, A day of trouble and distress, A day of devastation and desolation, A day of darkness and gloominess, A day of clouds and thick darkness, A day of trumpet and alarm Against the fortified cities And against the high towers. “I will bring distress upon men, And they shall walk like blind men, Because they have sinned against the LORD; Their blood shall be poured out like dust, And their flesh like refuse.” Neither their silver nor their gold Shall be able to deliver them In the day of the LORD’s wrath; But the whole land shall be devoured By the fire of His jealousy, For He will make speedy riddance Of all those who dwell in the land”.
On this day in 2018, a 6-6 magnitude earthquake (with a depth of 35km struck Eastern Iburi, near Hokkaido, Japan; leaving 41 people dead, 691 people injured, and 5.3 million residents without electricity. On this day in 2020, another earthquake (5.3 magnitude and 10km depth) occurred near Fukul, Japan. Today, hear the voice of God calling you to get down to work and stand in the gap for the lives of men. Say, “Here I am” and move on from there.
Day 248 is Ecclesiastes – Amos Day in the 36th week. Going through any week is like taking a journey through the Bible. Every week has an Old Testament side and a New Testament side. The first four days of the week belong to the Old Testament side and express the 39 books of the Old Testament. The remaining three days of the week constitute the New Testament side and express the 27 books of the New Testament. The third day of the week is the third day in the Old Testament side of the week; and expresses the third 10 books of the Old Testament and the Bible. In the third 10 books of the Bible, God sent His prophets to speak to the people. They confronted the people, warned them against judgment, comforted the faithful, and brought judgment on the arrogant. The third day is for the overthrow of the rebellious and establishment of the humble and just. How you fare in this season depends on your attitude and response to the word of God. This is a day of prophetic confrontation and judgment.
DECREE AND DECLARE: God made us in His image and likeness to rule, have dominion, and impose His will on seasons; as He did with the seven days of creation. He decreed what He wanted for each day. We are to decree what is revealed concerning each day. This is a day of manifestation. Do not be afraid to take a stand for the Lord. It is a season to come out of hiding and obscurity. It is a day to overthrow oppression and the oppressor. It is a day to establish the humble. Today, decree the downfall of the wicked and the lifting and establishment of the just. Today, prophesy an end to something in your life, family, business, community, and nation. Today, be ready to hear His voice and respond by faith. Expect breakthrough. Be willing to sacrifice. Walk by faith! This is a day of breakthrough and pushing through barriers in the 36th week. This is a day of unveiling. It is a day of answers to prayers. Today, pray for the overthrow of dysfunctional systems in the nations and in the church. Pray that God will make a way for the manifestation of hidden platforms and producers. Pray also that the forgotten functional people and things be remembered, recognized, and restored. Today, remember that when God delivers and manifests, it is for service and production. Do not consume His mercy on your lust. On this third day of the 36th week of vengeance and mercy, the oppressor will go down and the humble shall be delivered. Happy 248th day!
