Welcome to the 283rd day of the year! Day 283 is the third day of the 41st week; the third day of the sixth week in the sixth 49 days; the 38th day in the sixth 49 days. It is October 10 in a clear year and October 9 in a leap year. Day 283 is the game-changing day in the 41st week.
The Bible patterns for understanding the 283rd day are
The third day of creation narrative
The third book and chapters of the Bible
The 38th book and chapters of the Bible
The third 2 chapters (5-6) of the 41st book of the Bible.
Day 283 is a third day of creation day in the 41st week. On the third day of creation, God overthrew the waters and gave platform to the dry ground. The dry ground became platform for vegetation. The third day is for warring against overshadowing hindrances. It is also for manifesting what is hidden; and for creating supportive and sustaining platforms. Day 283 is a day of revealing hidden people and things. It is for removing the horizontal barriers sitting over the lives of people. Bible narratives mentioning third day or third year, and especially narratives in the third chapters, reveal that the course of things changes in the third season. It is a season of raising new platforms. Day 283 is a season of deliverance and breakthrough. It is an anti-death day. It is a ay of bouncing back from hopelessness. Today, thank God for a change of narrative in the week.
Day 283 is a Mark 7-8 day in the 41st week. The third division chapters of the 41st book of the Bible is applicable to the third day of the 41st week of the year. Mark chapter 7 opened with the Pharisees disputing about Jesus’ disciples eating bread without the ceremonial washing of hands. Jesus defended His disciples and threw light into the situation – that nothing that enters a man’s mouth can defile him. He said defilement comes from the heart rather than from things that pass through the mouth to the stomach. Jesus was very mobile in this section of the 41st book. After defending His disciples, and enlightening His audience about defilement, He passed to the region of Tyre and Sidon for a retreat. He did not want to be seen but he could not hide from the people desperate for solutions. There He delivered the daughter of a Syro-Phoenician woman from demonic oppression. From there, He returned to Galilee and healed a deaf-mute. In the 8th chapter, He fed over 4000 people with few loaves and fish. He received the Great Confession and also predicted His death and resurrection. The fourth 2 chapters of the 41st book reveal that Day 284 can be distressful. Just think of the disciples eating with ‘defiled hands’, the Syro-Phoenician woman needing intervention, and the over 4000 hungry people with Jesus in the wilderness. Day 284 is the wilderness of the 41st week. Today, do not shut your bowels of compassion from the needy.
Day 283 is a book of Zechariah day in the sixth 49 days of the year. Zechariah is the 38th book of the Bible; and is applicable to the 38th day in the sixth 49 days of the year. The book of Zechariah is about the restoration of Judah. At the beginning of the book, God gave the prophet a vision of Craftsmen He had raised against the horns that scattered Judah. In the last chapter, the Lord vowed to fight those who had fought Jerusalem, to make Jerusalem the headquarters of the world. Zechariah 14:16-21 says, “And it shall come to pass that everyone who is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the Feast of Tabernacles. [17] And it shall be that whichever of the families of the earth do not come up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, on them there will be no rain. [18] If the family of Egypt will not come up and enter in, they shall have no rain; they shall receive the plague with which the LORD strikes the nations who do not come up to keep the Feast of Tabernacles. [19] This shall be the punishment of Egypt and the punishment of all the nations that do not come up to keep the Feast of Tabernacles. [20] In that day “HOLINESS TO THE LORD” shall be engraved on the bells of the horses. The pots in the LORD’s house shall be like the bowls before the altar. [21] Yes, every pot in Jerusalem and Judah shall be holiness to the LORD of hosts. Everyone who sacrifices shall come and take them and cook in them. In that day there shall no longer be a Canaanite in the house of the LORD of hosts”.
Day 283 is the day of the Lord’s Last Battle against the ‘oppressive waters’ in the 41st week.
Today 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. Today, look up! Deliverance is coming. Happy 283rd day! Happy third day of the week!
