Welcome to the 276th day of the year. Day 276 is the third day of the 40th week; the third day of the fifth week in the sixth 49 days; and the 31st day in the sixth 49 days. The third day is the turning point in the week. Day 276 is October 3 in a clear year and October 2 in a leap year.
The Bible patterns for understanding the 276th day are
The third day of creation narrative
The third book and chapters of the Bible
The 31st book and chapters of the Bible
The third four chapters of the 40th book of the Bible.
Day 276 is a third day of creation day. On the third day of creation, God completed the battle against the waters; contained the waters under heaven; and made dry ground appear and bring forth vegetation. The third day is for the completion of the battle against the waters (oppression). God began the battle against water on the second day. Day 3 is the day of the last battle. The third day is when hidden things are revealed. It is a season of revelations. It is the season for the recruitment of sustaining platforms. Both the earth and vegetation are sustainers. The third book of the Bible, Leviticus, is about the spiritual sustainers of Old Israel. The book is about the Priesthood, the Tabernacle, the Offerings, and Festivals. Those were the four pillars of Israel’s faith. Day 276 is the game-changing day in the 40th week. The third chapters of the Bible show that narratives change course in the third season. The course of events change in the third point. The story of man and the earth changed in Genesis 3. What you do today will determine how the week will go or end.
Day 276 is a Matthew 9-12 day in the 40th week. The third four chapters of the 40th book of the Bible is applicable to the third day of the 40th week of the year. Three major things happened in the third four chapters. Firstly, Jesus continued the miracles of physical restoration that began in the second four chapters; and even took it to another level. He raised the dead in Matthew 9. The third day is an anti-death season. Secondly, He called Matthew the tax collector – who was deemed unworthy – to be His disciple; and also introduced His 12 disciples in this section. He sent them to go and preach and perform miracles. Thirdly, He continued the equipping and preparation of His disciples that began in Matthew 5.
The book of Matthew (the 40th by placement) is a great illustration of a sustaining platform in the 40th week. Jesus is the Sustainer in the Book. He is like both the ground and the vegetation that God created on the third day. The earth-ground gives a place to stand on. He calls people to come to Him as in Matthew 11:28ff. The earth is like the promises of the word of God that uphold us. God’s promises give us hope. Jesus calls men to build their lives on His Word. The vegetation is like the divine principles, instructions, and wisdom, from God’s word that nourishes our lives, when we eat them. Jesus gave healing and deliverance to many in the book of Matthew. He nourished men from the teachings He gave them. “Man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God”. Herbs are for food and medicine. The earth-ground is God’s word that shows us how much He loves us. We cannot run away from God or His love. The vegetation is God’s word that we must choose to live by. Whereas the earth-ground is there for you wherever you go, you have to choose to go to the vegetation before you can be helped by it.
In the Gospel according to Matthew, Jesus preached, taught, and healed. Many were drawn to trust Him. God makes way for sustainers in the third season. God reveals, raises, and recruits servant-leaders in the third season. Pray, today, for all misplaced persons to come into their places of purpose and destiny. In Genesis 40, the potential in Joseph began to manifest. The third day is for the manifestation of hidden power and potential.
Day 276 is a book-of-Obadiah day in the sixth 49 days. Obadaiah is the 31st book of the Bible and is applicable to the 31st day in the sixth 49 days of the year. A book-of-Obadiah-day is a day to possess your possessions. It is a day to take your place. The word ‘possess’ or ‘possessions’ is used seven times in this 21-verse book. Day 276 is a day of deliverances and a day of possessing possessions.
Day 276 is Ecclesiastes – Amos Day in the 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 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 week, the oppressor will go down and the humble shall be delivered. Happy 276th day of the year!
