Welcome to the 311th day of the year! Day 311 is the third day of the of the 45th week; the third day of the third week in the seventh 49 days of the year; the 17th day in the seventh seven weeks of the year. This is a core third-season day – third day in the third week. It is a breakthrough-day. It is November 7 in a clear year and November 6 in a leap year. This is the game-changing day in the week.
The Bible patterns for understanding the 311th day are
The third day of creation narrative
The third book and chapters of the Bible
The third 2 chapters of the 45th book of the Bible
The 17th book and chapters of the Bible.
Day 311 is a third day of creation day in the 45th week. The key to understanding the third day or third season is the act of God on the third day of creation. On the third day of creation, God liberated the dry ground and the seeds in it from the dominion of the waters. God gives breakthrough to the downtrodden in the third season. He gives honor to the least expected in the third season. He overthrows oppressors in the third season. The third season is when hidden people and things are revealed and manifested. Day 311 is breakthrough and victory day for things buried under the waters. It is a day of triumph for ‘the dead, the dry, and the destitute’.
Day 311 is a third-book-and-third-chapters-of-the-Bible day in the 45th week. The third book and third chapters of the Bible reveal that the spirit of death goes to work in the third season; but that is also when God acts against (or defies) death and dryness. The third book of the Bible, Leviticus, is about the sacrifices, the tabernacle, and the priesthood, designed to minister life and keep death away. Adam and Eve yielded to death in Genesis 3. Moses was called to deliver the downtrodden in Exodus 3. Haman manifested in Esther 3 and vowed to annihilate the Jews. In John 3, Jesus is God’s offering for everlasting life. Jesus Christ is God’s antidote for death.
Romans 3 is the third chapter of the 45th book of the Bible; as Day 311 is the third day of the 45th week. Romans 3 is a revelation of the cure for death. Sin is the cause of death; but righteousness is the cure for death. Justification is acquittal from the prison cell of death. From the 20th verse of Romans 3, Paul throws the bomb – that is really where the justification-by-faith message of the book began:
Romans 3:20-30 says, “Therefore by the deeds of the law no flesh will be justified in His sight, for by the law is the knowledge of sin. [21] But now the righteousness of God apart from the law is revealed, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets, [22] even the righteousness of God, through faith in Jesus Christ, to all and on all who believe. For there is no difference; [23] for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, [24] being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, [25] whom God set forth as a propitiation by His blood, through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance God had passed over the sins that were previously committed, [26] to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus. [27] Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? Of works? No, but by the law of faith. [28] Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith apart from the deeds of the law. [29] Or is He the God of the Jews only? Is He not also the God of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also, [30] since there is one God who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through faith”.

Day 311 is a Roman’s 7-8 day in the 45th week. Romans 7 is a cry for deliverance “from this body of death”. It states the law of liberation from the yoke of marriage to sin and death. The eighth chapter of Romans declares the Believer’s freedom from the law of sin and death through the law of the Spirit of life. Day 311 is a day of enforcing freedom from sin and death.
Day 311 is a book of Esther day in the seventh 49 days of the year. Esther is the seventeenth book of the Bible; and Day 311 is the seventeenth day in the seventh seven weeks of the year. The book of Esther is about overthrows and replacements. Vashti was removed and Esther took her place. Haman was killed by hanging and Mordecai took his place. The third season is for the promotion of underlays. It is when the status quo is challenged and, often, displaced. In this season, old ways and thoughts are replaced with new ones.
The book of Esther is about triumph over death and killers. In the second chapter of the book, Esther was orphaned by the death of her parents. Mordecai raised her up till she became queen of Persia. What the evil one wanted to accomplish through the death of her parents failed. Before the end of that chapter, two men plotted to assassinate the king – Esther’s husband. The secret leaked. They were arrested and executed. Esther triumphed again. In Esther 3, Haman, angered by Mordecai, plotted to destroy all Jews in the name of the king. In Esther 5, the queen escaped being killed for going to see the king without being invited. Favor saved her. In Esther. In the 7th chapter of the book, Haman was hanged, on the order of the king, on the gallows he prepared for Mordecai. In Esther 9, the Jews had permission to kill those who wanted to kill them. Day 311 is an anti-death day; but of course, the evil one will want to see innocent people killed on this day.
Day 311 is Ecclesiastes – Amos Day in the 45th 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. It is a day to overturn negative circumstances. 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! God will get into the matter-of-the-week with you. Decree deliverance for the oppressed. Decree the overthrow of destroyers. Decree that destructive secrets be exposed. Happy 311th day!
BORN ON THIS DAY? You were born on this day for a reason. You were born on this day to counter problems associated with this day. Every day has its troubles but God also gives trouble shooters to each day per the need. The spirit of death and dryness seeks to hijack this day. So, you are part of the Creator’s solution to the kind of problems that manifest on this day. You were born on this day to counter the spirit of dryness and death. You were born on this day to inject life into dry and dying places. That was the kind of intervention that made the dry ground bring forth vegetation on the third day of creation. You are like Esther or Mordecai in the 17th book of the Bible. The spirit of dryness and death will want to make you a victim of death and dryness. If you are not sensitive, the evil one will also want to make you an agent of death and dryness – as Haman got the king of Persia to take sides with death. You must not allow perversion of your ordination. Today, give thanks to God for your life and pray to stand strong in your ordination. Happy birthday!
