Welcome to the 363rd day of the year! Day 363 is the sixth day of the 52nd week; and the 20th day in the last 22/23 days of the year. Day 363 is a sixth day season. The main Bible pattern for understanding Day 363 is the sixth day of creation narrative. The sixth book and sixth chapters of the Bible are also patterns for understanding Day 363.
Day 363 is a sixth day of creation day. On the sixth day of creation, God made man and land animals; and gave the earth to man whom He made in His image and likeness. He also stated man’s purpose to subdue, rule, and have dominion. In the sixth season, God gives power to the things that bear His semblance to subdue the forces that do not bear His semblance. The sixth season is when God expects full alignment of earth with Heaven. Matthew 6 calls us to pray that God’s will be done on earth as it is in heaven. In the sixth season, man should bear semblance with God; and the earth with heaven. This happens through following God’s word. Consequently, if the earth is out of alignment with heaven in the sixth season, heaven reacts to establish it rule over the earth. This is the story of the sixth chapter of Genesis and of the sixth book of the Bible. The sixth season is a season of battle of ascendancy between godliness and ungodliness. The sixth season is both a season of judgment and a season of grace.
363 is a book of Joshua day in the 52nd week. Joshua is the sixth book of the Bible and reveals three things about the sixth season: 1. God gives inheritance in the sixth season; and calls men to fight to possess their inheritance in the season. 2. God judges rebellion in the sixth season and gives grace to the humble. 3. The key to success in the sixth season is receiving and following divine commands and instructions. The sixth season is a season to comply fully with God’s word without turning to the right or to the left. Joshua 1:7-8 says, “Only be strong and very courageous, that you may observe to do according to all the law which Moses My servant commanded you; do not turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may prosper wherever you go. [8] This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success”.
363 is a book of Proverbs day in the last 22/23 days of the year. The book of Proverbs is a book of instructions and guidelines for every day living. The book shows that success comes from following the way of God’s wisdom; and that the opposite, foolishness, hurts and leads to failure. Proverbs 1:22-33 says, “How long, you simple ones, will you love simplicity? For scorners delight in their scorning, And fools hate knowledge. [23] Turn at my rebuke; Surely I will pour out my spirit on you; I will make my words known to you. [24] Because I have called and you refused, I have stretched out my hand and no one regarded, [25] Because you disdained all my counsel, And would have none of my rebuke, [26] I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your terror comes, [27] When your terror comes like a storm, And your destruction comes like a whirlwind, When distress and anguish come upon you. [28] “Then they will call on me, but I will not answer; They will seek me diligently, but they will not find me. [29] Because they hated knowledge And did not choose the fear of the LORD, [30] They would have none of my counsel And despised my every rebuke. [31] Therefore they shall eat the fruit of their own way, And be filled to the full with their own fancies. [32] For the turning away of the simple will slay them, And the complacency of fools will destroy them; [33] But whoever listens to me will dwell safely, And will be secure, without fear of evil.”
Day 363 is Ephesians – Philemon day in the 52nd week. Every week is like 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 sixth day of the week is the second day in the New Testament side of the week; and expresses the second nine books of the New Testament. Today is a day to triumph in warfare through instructions. The second 9 books of the N.T are mentoring books. The pastoral epistles of Paul are in this section. This section of the Bible is for “the preparation of the man of God”.
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, prophesy restoration and blessing on God’s people because of the finished work; and prophesy against ungodliness. Today, show that your primary allegiance is to the God of Israel. You are made in the image and likeness of God. This is a day to commemorate and relive the creation of man in the image and likeness of God. Today, make your way back to the Lord. Even if you are not a backslider, you can still get closer to the goal of expressing the Lord – as His image and likeness. Today, stand out for God as His representative and look into your life, and look around, for things and areas that need to be conformed to God’s standards. Today, pray that the kingdom comes, by the word of God, to establish God’s will in your life, family, church, community, nation; and in the nations of the world. Have a happy and tremendously fruitful day!
