Welcome to Day 84! The 84th day is the seventh and last day of the 12th week of the year. It is the 35th day in the second 49 days. It is the seventh day of the fifth week in the second 49 days (second 7 weeks). The 84th day of the year is a seventh season day. It is March 25 in a clear year; and March 24 in a leap year. The Bible keys for understanding and interpreting Day 84 are the seventh day of creation narrative, Psalm 84, the seventh three chapters of Second Kings and remainder of the book.
Day 84 is a seventh day of creation day in the 12th week. God ended His work on the seventh day and rested. The seventh is the end for God. It is the end of work, toil, struggles, trouble, and pain. Day 84 is a day of rest. It is a day to enjoy the fruit of the finished work of the week. It is a season of salvation from unrest leading to rest. It is a Sabbath season. It is a season set apart for God and His pleasure. The pursuit God’s pleasure in the seventh season frees men from pressures in the season.
Day 84 is a Second Kings 23-25 day in the 12th week. The seventh section of the twelfth book of the Bible is applicable to the seventh day of the twelfth week. The 23rd chapter is about Josiah’s reforms touching the House of God and the city of God, his death, and the beginning of the fall of Judah. The 24th and 25th chapters are about Judah’s troubles with Nebuchadnezzar and Babylon; leading to the fall of Judah and Jerusalem.
Day 84 is a Book of Habakkuk day in the second 49 days. It is also a 35th chapters of the Bible day. The 84th (35th) is the season of the House of God, the Strength of God, and of the Person and Presence of God. God told Jacob to go to Bethel in Genesis 35.
Day 84 is a Psalm 84 day in the year! The 84th day is for appearing in the house of God. It is a day to focus attention on God and His house. Psalm 84 is like a cry to God for the loss of Jerusalem and the House of God. The psalmist is hungry for the House of God.
Psalm 84:1-4, 10 says, “How lovely is Your tabernacle, O LORD of hosts! [2] My soul longs, yes, even faints For the courts of the LORD; My heart and my flesh cry out for the living God. [3] Even the sparrow has found a home, And the swallow a nest for herself, Where she may lay her young- Even Your altars, O LORD of hosts, My King and my God. [4] Blessed are those who dwell in Your house; They will still be praising You. Selah. [10] For a day in Your courts is better than a thousand. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God Than dwell in the tents of wickedness.”
Since, we are now the house of God in Christ Jesus, the 84th day is for celebrating our habitation in God and His habitation in us through Jesus Christ. It is for enjoying the presence of God in us as we are also in Him.
The 84th season is for reliance on the Strength of God.
Psalm 84:5-9,11-12 says, “Blessed is the man whose strength is in You, Whose heart is set on pilgrimage. [6] As they pass through the Valley of Baca, They make it a spring; The rain also covers it with pools. [7] They go from strength to strength; Each one appears before God in Zion. [8] O LORD God of hosts, hear my prayer; Give ear, O God of Jacob! Selah [9] O God, behold our shield, And look upon the face of Your anointed. [11] For the LORD God is a sun and shield; The LORD will give grace and glory; No good thing will He withhold From those who walk uprightly. [12] O LORD of hosts, Blessed is the man who trusts in You!”
Having the Lord as my strength, and trusting Him, gives me rest. It saves me from getting tired, weary, and from breaking down. I do not have to use my own strength. The 84th season is for trusting in God and leaning on Him as my Everlasting Strength.
The 84th season is a blessed season of rest. Three times the 84th psalm says ‘blessed’. Psalm 84:4-5,12 says, “BLESSED are those who dwell in Your house; They will still be praising You. Selah. BLESSED is the man whose strength is in You, Whose heart is set on pilgrimage”. “O LORD of hosts, BLESSED is the man who trusts in You!”
Day 84 is Hebrews to Revelation day in the 12th week. This is a day of the recovery of the House of God. Every week is like a journey through the Bible. Every week also 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 seventh day of the week is the third and last day in the New Testament side of the week; and expresses the third nine books of the New Testament. Today is a day of the last battle and ultimate triumph in the week. The third 9 books of the N.T are books of correction, recovery, and restoration.
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. Today, decree the downfall of the wicked and the lifting and establishment of the just. Today, prophesy and declare war against the enemies of God. Today, raise a cry against wickedness; trust in the Lord, hope in Him, and take refuge in His grace and mercy. Today, prophesy restoration and blessing on God’s people because of the finished work; and prophesy against ungodliness. This is a day of “IT IS DONE”. Today, you will have pleasure by seeking the pleasure of God. Today, make it priority to honor God. Obey Him. If you missed it anywhere, repent and return to God. This is a day to go back to Bethel Today, focus attention on the Habitation and presence of God among His people. Happy 84th day!
