Welcome to the 282nd day of the year! Day 282 is the second day of the 41st week; the second day of the sixth week in the sixth 49 days; the 37th day in the sixth 49 days.
This is a second season day. It is October 9 in a clear year and October 8 in a leap year.
The Bible patterns for understanding the 282nd day are
The second day of creation narrative
The second book and chapters of the Bible
The 37th book and chapters of the Bible
The second 2 chapters of the 41st book of the Bible.
Day 282 is a second day of creation day in the 41st week. God destroyed the monopoly of the waters on the second day of creation by creating the firmament for space. God gives help in second seasons to battle and thwart oppressive monopolies. The second book and chapters of the Bible bear witness that God sends help, saves lives, delivers from oppression. and makes a way where there is none, in second seasons. Prayers, prophetic decrees, human connections are God’s tools for charting ways in the second season. Day 282 is a day to receive help and make a way where there is no way.
Day 282 is a Mark 4-6 day in the 41st week. The second 3 chapters of the 41st book is applicable to the second day of the 41st week. In Mark 4, Jesus told the parable of the sower. He also told other seed-parables to show the mystery of the growth of the kingdom. While at sea going to the country of the Gadarenes, Jesus and His team encountered a life-threatening storm. Jesus rebuked the storm and the sea became calm. His disciples were amazed. In Mark 5, Jesus delivered a man from demon-possession; healed a woman suffering from hemorrhage, and raised a little girl from death. He made a way where there was none. In Mark 6, Jesus was despised in Nazareth because of His background; but He still performed miracles. He fed 5000 people with very little provisions, He walked on the sea; and many people were healed by just touching Him. When Herod heard of Jesus and the mighty works He did, he concluded that John the Baptist had risen from he dead. The story of the gruesome murder of John is recorded here. In this chapter also Jesus sent His disciples, two by two, to go and preach the gospel. Day 283 is a day of great miraculous interventions; and a day to defy and break controlling powers.
Day 282 is a Book of Haggai day in the sixth 49 days of the year. The 37th book of the Bible is applicable to the 37th day in the sixth 49 days. In the book of Haggai, God’s suffered because they abandoned the rebuilding of the House of God – the House of Prayer from where mountains are moved. They abandoned the building because of a prohibiting royal decree. It seemed they could not do anything because of the king’s decree; until God began to speak to them through Haggai the prophet. The prophet called them back to work. The people returned to the work, prospered and never stopped until the house was completed. The ministries of Haggai and Zechariah became the monopoly-breaker that thwarted the king’s decree to make way for the temple to be completed. The prophetic word is a monopoly-breaker. Prayer is not to be neglected in a 37th season like Day 282. Prayer changed things for king Hezekiah in Isaiah 37. In Isaiah 37, Sennacherib rose against Hezekiah and Judah. The king cried to God and Isaiah assured him by the word of the Lord that Sennacherib would not prosper with his plans.
In a 37th season like Day 282, God thwarts the plans of the wicked to help those who trust in Him. In Genesis 37, Joseph’s brothers conspired against him; to terminate his journey to destiny. God intervened and change their plans. They sold him into slavery instead. This is a day to call upon the one who makes a way where there is no way. This is a day to seek God’s help and prophetic intervention. The enemy seeks to slay the godly in this season but with intervention,he will not succeed.
Day 282 is a First Kings – to – Proverbs Day in the 41st 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 second day of the week is the second day in the Old Testament side of the week; and expresses the second 10 books of the Old Testament and the Bible. In the second 10 books of the Bible, God wanted the kings of Israel to trust Him and lead the nation in the same direction. Beginning with Solomon, the kings of Israel began to patronize Idols. Idol worship became official in the northern kingdom following the split. Judah followed. Prophets rose in this season to call the nation back to God. Eventually, the two kingdoms went into captivity – the north fell to Assyria; and the south to the Babylonians. The Jews did return from captivity after 70 years. The last two books in this section of the Bible (Psalms and Proverbs) show that God is the Way-Maker; and that loss of faith in God is prelude to the loss of all things in the second season; but faith in God is the secret of power and strength. The faithful will triumph in the second season by the power and wisdom of God no matter what happens.
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, declare that your faith will not fail; and that the faithful will triumph. Decree the downfall of those who disregard God and trust in themselves or idols, Today, prophesy against evil controlling powers and overthrow them by the word of the Lord. Mercy makes a way where there is no way. Today is a day of divine intervention and mercy. Today, release the word of the Lord against oppressive mountains in your life and in your world. Raise a cry to God against the proud and wicked in the land. Today, trust God to make a way where there is no way. Proclaim His word, Pray to Him. Praise Him! Today, lift your voice against conspiracies and oppressive monopolies. Lift your voice against forces that have risen to stop you. Happy 282nd day!
BORN ON THIS DAY? You were born on this day for a good reason. It’s about who you are and the work you came to do on earth. Ecclesiastes 3 reveals there is a time to be born. Whatever the circumstances of birth may be, people are born in their time. You couldn’t have come into the world on a better day. This is your day! Light was born to overthrow darkness. You were born on this day to tackle problems associated with this day. This is a day of finding a way where there’s no way. This is a day of war against monopolies and space-blockers. You were born for that battle. You were born for intervention to make a way where there is none. How you do this work depends on your occupation or preoccupation. The kingdom of darkness will labour to move you out of your ordination by making you a victim or agent of oppression. The key to your success or victory is to align with God, who is the Saviour-General and Way- maker. You must learn to help others by leaning on the power and wisdom of God. Otherwise, you will just be another struggler. Today give thanks to God for your life and pray for grace to help and deliver people from the power of evil monopolies. Happy birthday!
