Day 309: The Mystery of November 5

Welcome to the 309th day of the year! Day 309 is the first day of the 45th week – the week of grace and revelations; the first day of the third week in the seventh seven weeks of the year.  The fifteenth day in the seventh 49 days of the year. It is November 5 in a clear year and November 4 in a leap year.

The Bible patterns for understanding the 309th day are 

The first day of creation narrative

The first book and chapters of the Bible

The first 2 chapters of the 45th book of the Bible

The 15th book and chapters of the Bible.

Day 309 is a first day of creation day in the 45th week. It is a “let there be light” day in the week. This is a day of light shining against darkness. It is a day of judgment against darkness. Light takes over today. It is a day of reactions against things that are out of alignment. It is a day of repair and restoration. As God initiated creation or recreation on the first day of creation, Day 309 is a day of new beginnings. 

Day 309 is a book of Ezra day in the seventh 49 days of the year. In the book of Ezra, King Cyrus received a command from God to rebuild the temple at Jerusalem. He made a proclamation accordingly and released Jews to go and undertake the work. Ezra was a teacher of the Law and accompanied the returnees to teach them the Law of God. The 15th book of the Bible is about a new beginning for the Jews. It’s about light coming to those sitting in darkness. Day 309 is for the breaking of light. It is a day of good news.

Day 309 is a book of Genesis day in the 45th week of the year. In the book of Genesis, God created, organized, furnished, and began to populate the earth. He also overthrew darkness with people and things that are in alignment with darkness. In that book, He raised Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. God revealed Himself as the Creator of all things. In a week of grace and revelations, this is a day of the revelation of God’s nature, God’s heart, and God’s word. The book of Genesis is a book of beginnings. Day 309 is a day of beginnings.

Day 309 is a Romans 1-3 day in the 45th week. The first 3 chapters of the 45th book of the Bible is a good illustration of the mind of God concerning the first day of the 45th week. This is a day of light and revelations. The first three chapters reveal the perfect righteousness and justice of God, the utter sinfulness and depravity of man, the total weakness and futility of seeking justification through human effort. Romans 3:20-26 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”.

Today, open your heart to people and truth God would be bringing your way – whether by word or actions. 

CONDITION FOR REVELATION 

Get alone with God. Joseph did not permit anyone to be around when he revealed himself to his brothers. This is a week of deep revelations and it is not to be done in public. The Revealer wants to be alone with you before the unveiling can be done.

Genesis 45:1 says, “Then Joseph could not restrain himself before all those who stood by him, and he cried out, “Make everyone go out from me!” So no one stood with him while Joseph made himself known to his brothers”.

Genesis 45:4 says, “And Joseph said to his brothers, “Please come near to me.” So they came near. Then he said: “I am Joseph your brother, whom you sold into Egypt”. 

In the 45th book of the Bible, Paul wanted to visit the Romans but was hindered. The hindrance from traveling was to give room to download deep things from from God into his spirit. Revelation restrains movements.

Romans 1:13 says, “Now I do not want you to be unaware, brethren, that I often planned to come to you (but was hindered until now), that I might have some fruit among you also, just as among the other Gentiles”.

Romans 15:22 says, “For this reason I also have been much hindered from coming to you”.

God wants to meet with you in private.

There are four revelations in the first 2 chapters of the 45th book of the Bible:

Firstly, Paul unveils Himself and his commitment to preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ. Romans is the beginning of Paul’s epistles. It was not the first to be written but it is the first to be presented. It is book #45 because of its content and message. New things and people are revealed in the 45th season. 

Secondly, Paul writes about the revelation of the righteousness of God which comes through faith. Romans 1:16-17 says, “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek. [17] For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “The just shall live by faith.” 

Thirdly, Paul speaks of the revelation of the wrath of God against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of man. Romans 1:18-32 says, “For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, [19] because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. [20] For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, [21] because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. [22] Professing to be wise, they became fools, [23] and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man-and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things. [24] Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, [25] who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. [26] For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. [27] Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due. [28] And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; [29] being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers, [30] backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, [31] undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful; [32] who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them”.

Fourthly, the second chapter reveals that there is no partiality with God (verse 11). Light is impartial. God does not look at the things men focus on when He judges. He is not influenced by the words of men or their appearances. Romans 2:25-29 says, “For circumcision is indeed profitable if you keep the law; but if you are a breaker of the law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision. [26] Therefore, if an uncircumcised man keeps the righteous requirements of the law, will not his uncircumcision be counted as circumcision? [27] And will not the physically uncircumcised, if he fulfills the law, judge you who, even with your written code and circumcision, are a transgressor of the law? [28] For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, nor is circumcision that which is outward in the flesh; [29] but he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the Spirit, not in the letter; whose praise is not from men but from God”. Paul said those who have knowledge should be examples. No one has any excuse before God. He condemns those who know the truth but live in error. This is a day of the revelation of the righteousness and justice of God against ungodliness. It is only mercy that exempts from judgment on Day 309. 

309 is a Genesis – Second Samuel 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 first day of the week is the beginning of the Old Testament side of the week; and expresses the first 10 books of the Old Testament and the Bible. In the first 10 books of the Bible, God revealed Himself as Creator and Caretaker. He chose those who aligned with His purpose for blessings; and reserved judgment for those who disregard Him. The first 10 books began with the creation and fall of the man in the image and likeness of God; and ended with the emergence of the man after God’s heart sitting on the throne of God’s choice nation. David was absolutely loyal to God. He gave himself for whatever God wanted. This is a day of aligning with God and becoming a man (woman) after His heart.

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 collapse and end of expressions and manifestations of darkness in your life and world. Decree that expressions of light will triumph in this first day of the week. God is first and the first belongs to Him. This is the Lord’s Day! It is the first day of the week. Today, make a quality decision to receive the word of the Lord and act on it without fear or doubts. Make a quality decision to walk in unconditional love. This is a day of sacrificial (tough) love. Today, take time to hear from God. Do not act without His direction. Follow what He says or shows. Today, seek the Lord against disasters in the week as you come into alignment. Call upon Him for mercy.

Today, speak LIGHT over dark areas and situations. Prophesy a new beginning over your life an in your nation. Happy Day 309!

BORN ON THIS DAY? You were born on this first day of the 45th week for a reason. It is because the Creator matched your potential to the problems associated with this day. The of birth speaks volumes about a person’s spiritual identity and purpose. Everyday has its problems and answers. You were born on this day because you were wired for the issues of this day. This is a day when evil and darkness seek to dominate men and draw them to destruction. This day needs people who bear the light of godliness to counter the darkness of evil. That is the reason you were born on this day. You were born to be light in a world where darkness and evil are prevalent. You were born to resist or counter evil and darkness. The kingdom knows you are an enemy and will seek to make you a victim or an agent. That is the nature of the battles you will face The evil one will attack you with his evil arrows. If that doesn’t work, the evil one will endeavour to deceive you to come over to the side of evil. You must win these battles. Alignment will protect you from attacks of the evil one. Sensitivity and discernment will deliver you from the satanic deception. Today, give thanks to God for your life and determine to press into your ordination and purpose. Happy birthday!

Day 308: The Mystery of November 4

By

Day 308 is the seventh day of the 44th week; the seventh day of the second week in the seventh 49 days; the fourteenth day in the seventh seven weeks of the year. It is November 4 in a clear year and November 3 in a leap year.

The Bible patterns for understanding the 308th day are 

The 7th day of creation narrative

The seventh book and chapters of the Bible

The seventh 4 chapters of the 44th book of the Bible

The 14th book and chapters of the Bible.

Day 308 is a seventh day of creation day. On the seventh day of creation, God rested. He did not create any thing. He focused on the day itself. He blessed the seventh day and made it a holy and distinct day. 

The rest of God is not just about having nothing to do but about subduing all enemies and dealing with anything that causes unrest. There can be no rest when a reason for unrest still remains. It is religion that makes the seventh day a season of ‘doing nothing’. Jesus made the seventh day a season of removing and dismantling things that bring or cause unrest in people’s lives. It is dealing with unrest that bringing. The reason God rested on the seventh day is because the enemy wants to keep men in unrest in the seventh season. So, God wants the seventh season to be a time of salvation and deliverance from unrest. He wants it to be a season giving rest to people in unrest and distress. 

Day 308 is also a fourteenth season day. It is a book of Second Chronicles day in the seventh 7 weeks of the year. The book of Second Chronicles ended with the captivity and restoration of Judah. The fourteenth is a season deliverance from death and destruction. It is a time to destroy the destroyer – if God is involved. The Passover happened on the fourteenth day of the first month. Hezekiah’s life was extended by fifteen years in the fourteenth year of his reign. 

Day 308 is an Acts 7 day. The seventh chapter of Acts is about Stephen’s defense and death. He was stoned to death in this chapter. Why did Stephen die in the seventh chapter of Acts? They stoned him to bury the truth they did not want to hear. There was no deliverer. There was no intercessor. Death comes in the seventh season; but where there is intervention, death can have no effect. There was no savior for rebellious humanity in Genesis 7. God raised judges in the seventh book of the Bible to deliver Israel from her enemies. Jesus reversed the death of a young man in Luke 7. The other reason death happens in the seventh season is divine judgment. 

Day 308 is also Acts 25-28 day. The seventh 4 chapters of the 44th book of the Bible is applicable to the seventh and last day of the 44th week. The seventh 4 chapters of Acts reveal that Day 308 is a day to appeal to the Highest Authority in Heaven as Paul appealed to Caesar before Festus in Acts 25; that Day 308 is the day of final argument as Paul defended himself for the last time before Agrippa in Acts 26. It is the day of the last battle between good and evil; that Day 308 is when the table is overturned against the proud as it happened in Acts 27. The captain of the ship learnt a bitter lesson by ignoring Paul and refusing his counsel; that Day 308 is a day of surprises and vindication as God vindicated Paul in Acts 28.

Day 308 is a Hebrews – Revelation day in the week. Every week is like a journey through the Bible. Every week also 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 seventh day of the week is the third and last day in the New Testament side of the week; and expresses the third nine books of the New Testament. Today is a day of the last battle and ultimate triumph in the week. The third 9 books of the N.T are books of correction, recovery, and restoration. 

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, raise a cry against wickedness; trust in the Lord, hope in Him, and take refuge in His grace and mercy. Today, prophesy restoration and blessing on God’s people because of the finished work; and prophesy against ungodliness. This is a day of “IT IS DONE”. Today, you will have pleasure by seeking the pleasure of God. Today, make it priority to honor God. Obey Him. If you missed it anywhere, repent and return to God. This is a day to go back to Bethel. Today, stand your ground for what is right and refuse to be pushed around. Cry out to God and look up to Him for vindication. He will not grant the expectations of the ungodly in your life. Happy Day 308!

BORN ON THIS DAY? You were born on this day for a reason. The seventh day of the 44th week was your day to be born. You were designed to be a match for the day. The day a person is born reveals the person’s spiritual identity and purpose. You were born on this day because you are part of the Creator’s solution to problems associated with this day. This seventh day of the week is a day of rest from distress. You were born to bring people into rest. You were born to be a saviour like the judges who fought for Israel in the seventh book of the Bible. Since you were born to save people from distress, the evil one will fight to paralyze you with distress so that you will not be able to help anyone. Secondly, the enemy will want to turn you into an agent of distress. Call upon God for any distress in your life and refuse temptation to be a channel of misery in any life. Today, give thanks to God for your life and believe God to take your stand as a warrior for rest. Happy birthday!

Day 307: The Mystery of November 3

Welcome to the 307th day of the year! Day 307 is the sixth day of the 44th week; the sixth day of the second week in the seventh seven weeks of the year; the 13th day in the seventh 49 days of the year.  It is November 3 in a clear year and November 2 in a leap year.

The Bible patterns for understanding the 307th day are 

The 6th day of creation narrative

The sixth book and chapters of the Bible

The sixth 4 chapters of the 44th book of the Bible

The 13th book and chapters of the Bible.

Day 307 is a sixth day of creation day. God completed and perfected the creation of flesh and blood on the sixth day. He made man in His image, gave him the dominion mandate – to rule and dominate all other flesh and blood creatures, and communicated with Him concerning Divine provisions for man and animals. In God’s plan, the sixth day (season), is the last day (season) of work in every seven days (or seasons). That is when whatever needs to be must be done. It is also the season to dispense inheritance and portions. God gives possessions and provisions in the sixth season. God also seeks representation to maintain order in the sixth season. Flesh reaches climax in the sixth season – leading to evil and wickedness; so, God seeks representation in the sixth season. This is a day of tasks, of dominion, of provisions, and of divine representation. Day 307 is the day before the day of rest in the week. You cannot rest from your work until you have reproduced yourself. God could not rest until He had created man and delegated responsibility to him. Today is for doing something that would relieve you and give you rest. It is a day of major work. What is the major work you must do today to crown the week.

The sixth chapter of the 44th book of the Bible is a good illustration of what needs to happen on the sixth day of the 44th week. The sixth chapter opens with contention concerning the distribution of food to widows. One section of the church complained that their widows were being neglected in the daily distribution. Organization and leadership are very necessary in the sixth season to avoid confusion. Jesus organized the crowd He fed in John 6. The good thing here is that they had food to distribute in the sixth season. The Apostles, seeking to avoid distraction, led the disciples to appoint seven honest men to administer the distribution. This way, the apostles could concentrate on prayer and the ministry of the word. Stephen was one of the men appointed to serve tables. His real apostolic calling, which had not been noticed, began to manifest – through wisdom, utterance, and miraculous signs and wonders. He was the ‘Apostle Stephen’ the church never had. He was a Paul in Stephen’s body. He ran into conflict with Jewish conservatives and fundamentalists. They could not resist or withstand his wisdom. They accused him of contradicting Moses, stirred up trouble against him, and brought him before the Council.

Day 307 is a book-of-First-Chronicles day in the seventh 49 days of the year. The book of First Chronicles is the 13th book of the Bible. The book opened with Adam (the first human representative of God on earth) and closed with David – the man after God’s heart. His battle exploits to subdue the nations and establish God’s kingdom in Israel are recorded in this book.This is a day of battles to possess your possessions. It is a day of contentions for the inheritance and provisions. This book dedicates 19 chapters (11-29) to David but gave ten chapters for . The message of the book is that, in David, God made a masterpiece to give Him rest concerning Israel and become the foundation for the future. Day 307 is a day to lay foundation for the future.

Day 307 is Acts 21-24 day. The sixth 4 chapters of the 44th book of the Bible is applicable to the sixth day of the 44th week. The trials and defenses of Paul are recorded in this section of the book. The Jews would have killed him here but God preserved him and set him apart as a major tool for His work in the church and in the nations. He contributed about half of the New Testament books. The future will be determined today. Day 307 is a day of critical work. It is a day of contention for the future.

Day 307 is Ephesians – Philemon day in the 44th 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. 

Today, watch out against fleshly contentions. Watch in prayer against satanic attacks on the truth. Watch out against distractions. Make time for people and their needs but never neglect communion with God – through prayer and the Word. Be ready to answer the call to service. Organize yourself today and create your masterpiece for the week. Have a happy and tremendously fruitful Day 307!

BORN ON THIS DAY? You were born on this day for a reason. It is about who you are and what you represent. The day you were born says a lot about who you are and why you exist. People are born to solve problems associated with the day they are born. Light shines in darknesd. This is a day of intense conflict between good and evil, righteousness and wickedness, justice and injustice. You were born on this day to fight for righteousness and justice. You were born to fight for what is good. That explains the nature of the battles you will face. The evil one will fight to make you a permanent victim of wickedness or an agent of wickedness. The evil one will want to weaken you with what you came to fight. That way, you will just focus on yourself and never think of fighting for anyone. As long as you are vigorously pursuing alignment with God, the evil can never defeat you. You were born to express God but the kingdom of darkness will want you to become an expression of the evil one. You must resist the temptation. Keep your eyes on being the blessing you were made to be. Michael Dukakis (former Governor of Massachusetts, Democrat’s Presidential nominee) and Larry Holmes American World Heavyweight boxing champion) were born on this day. Today, give thanks to God for your life and pray to stand strong in your ordination. Happy birthday!

Day 306: The Mystery of November 1

By

2

Welcome to the 306th day of the year! Day 306 is the fifth day of the 44th week; the fifth day of the second week in the seventh seven weeks of the year; the 12th day in the seventh 49 days.  It is November 2 in a clear year and November 1 in a leap year.

The Bible patterns for understanding the 306th day are 

The fifth day of creation narrative

The fifth book and chapters of the Bible

The fifth 4 chapters of the 44th book of the Bible

The 12th book and chapters of the Bible.

Day 306 is a fifth day of creation day in the 44th week. On the fifth day of creation, God began to make flesh and blood creatures. On that day, He also began to bless His creation. He also made two kinds of creatures – one to swim and the other to fly. Flying in the air and swimming in deep waters are wonders of creation. The fifth day of creation was a day of departure from stillness and silence to voice sounds; from stagnancy to movement; from abandonment to blessings.

Day 306 is a book-of-Second Kings day in the seventh seven weeks. It is a day of miraculous prophetic interventions. In the book of Second Kings, Elisha was God’s agent intervening in the lives of men to save life, make provisions, heal the sick, recover lost property, reverse natural disaster, and so on. The 12th book of the Bible is full of miracles and signs and wonders. Day 306 is a day of miraculous interventions.

Day 306 is a book-of- Deuteronomy-and-Acts-5 day in the 44th week.The book of Deuteronomy is a call to obey God and serve Him – in response to His blessings. The book speaks about the blessings that would accompany Israel’s obedience to God and the curses that would follow disobedience and rebellion.

The fifth chapter of Acts is filled with wonders. The chapter opens with Ananias and and his wife Sapphira lying about their offering. They died for it. To be carnally minded in the fifth season is death. God gives material blessing in the fifth season but it must be handled with deep spirituality. Remember that in the fifth chapter of the 12th book of the Bible, Second Kings, Gehazi, the servant of Elisha became leprous for pursuing material things and lying to Elisha about it. Both in Second Kings 5 and in Acts 5, the secrets were revealed. There is no hiding place in the fifth season – if you are dealing with very spiritual people. Both fishes and birds have great vision. Matthew 5:16 tells us that a city set on a hill cannot be hidden. You must resist the temptation to walk in the flesh in the fifth season. Galatians 5:16-23 tells us that the fifth season is a time to walk in the spirit and not in the flesh. It is a season to see material things and walk away from them; as Peter did in Luke 5 after a great catch of fish. 

The other things that happened in this chapter relates to multitudes being drawn to the truth and receiving healing as Peter’s shadow healed the sick. The fifth season is a season of Multitudes and miraculous healings. God made abundance of living creatures on the fifth day of creations. The apostles were also mysteriously delivered from prison and sent back to go and continue preaching in the temple. An Angel got them out of prison but the prison doors remained locked with security guards alert and standing in their positions. The fifth season is a season of freedom of movement. God did not put the birds in cages or the fish in artificial ponds when He made them on the fifth day of creation. In the fifth season, God delivers those who are bound by circumstances. God also used Gamaliel’s speech to deliver the apostles from the anger of the Jewish rulers.

Day 306 is Acts 17-20 day! The fifth 4 chapters of the 44th book of the Bible is applicable to the fifth day of the 44th week. The fifth 4 chapters shows Paul reaching out to the middle and upper class societies. In Chapter 17, Paul was at Thessalonica, Berea, and Athens. In the 18th chapter, he was at Corinth – where He met Aquila and Priscilla, and Apollos. In the 19th chapter, Paul was at Ephesus where he confronted spiritual beasts and saw God perform unusual miracle through his hands. 

Day 306 is a Matthew – Galatians day in the 44th week. It is a day of the compassionate intervention of God. Every week is like a journey through the Bible having an Old Testament side and a New Testament side. The first four days of the week belong to the Old Testament side and expresses 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 fifth day of the week is the beginning of the New Testament side of the week; and expresses the first nine books of the New Testament. The first 9 books of the NT are about Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, and the Church. The books are about the love and grace of God granting salvation and justification to humanity by faith. This is a day to enter experientially into the New Testament side of the week. It is a day of answers to prayers, fulfillment of prophecies, and delivery of promises. The New Testament side is the spiritual and deeper side. The New Testament side is the side of manifestation. The old has passed away; and the new has begun. Dreams for the week are expected to come to pass and promises should be fulfilled. Expect deliverance and divine intervention.

DECREE AND DECLARE: At creation, God spoke His will into each day. He made us in His image and likeness; and expects us to release His will into each day.  Decree this day that the flesh will not overtake the spirit in your life, family,, organization, and nation. Decree a change in the week and declare that today is the beginning of the New Testament side of the 33rd week. As a Book-of-Matthew day, decree that Emmanuel (God is with us) takes over. As a New Testament type day, decree that the love of God will overtake human error and failure. Today, submit to the spirit against the flesh. Walk in the spirit and make no room for the flesh. The fifth season is a season of giving spiritual interpretations to earthly manifestations. Today, make it your watchword to walk in the spirit and obey God’s Word. Walking in the spirit is the key to gaining all. Birds (representing the spirit) fly above and eat from the land, the sea, and the air. Today, cry out to God against oppression and for the pains in your life. Speak out also. Trust Him to intervene in your affairs and in the affairs of people around you. Determine to make a next-level move. It’s time to shift base in the spirit! Today, put yourself on the side of blessing by choosing obedience instead of curses by choosing disobedience. Have happy day!

Today, expect miracles to happen for you and through your hands.

BORN ON THIS DAY? You were born on this day for a reason. It didn’t just happen. You were born on this day because of your spiritual identity and purpose. You were born on this day because you are part of the Creator’s solution to problems associated with this day. What problems are associated with this day? This is a to expressing life to the full. God made free-moving creatures of enjoyment on the fifth day of creation. You were born on this day to deal with forces that hinder full expression of life. Such forces include disease, death, poverty, curses, oppression, disasters and rebellion against God. You were born to free men from afflictions and limitations. You were born to help people live and enjoy their lives. How you fulfill this mandate depends on your passion and occupation – policy maker, entertainer, health worker, social worker, religious worker, and so on. This also reveals the kind of battles you will face in life. The evil one will want to make you a victim and keep you from enjoying your own life. That way, you will not be able to help others. The evil one will also work hard to deceive you into becoming an agent of suffering in life. The kingdom of darkness will want to use you to destroy people you were born to save or help. If you pursue alignment with God, you will win those two battles. King Edward V who was deposed and killed by his successor, Richard III, was born on this day. Two former Presidents of the United States, James Knox Polk (the 11th) and Warren G. Harding (the 29th), who died in office, were born on this day. Today, give thanks to God for your life and pray and determine to be in alignment with your Creator and ordination. Happy birthday!

The 30th Anniversary/Birthday & the Mystery of the 31st Year

Happy 30th anniversary/birthday and welcome to the 31st year!

DEFINITION & DESCRIPTION

The 31st year is the 12-month season following the 30th anniversary or birthday. Year 31 is the third year in the fifth seven years of life. The Bible patterns for understanding the 31st year are 1) the third day of creation narrative; 2) the 31st book of the Bible; 3) the 31st chapters of the Bible; 4) the 3rd five chapters of Deuteronomy, the fifth book of the Bible. 

BIBLICAL PATTERNS FOR THE SEASON

1. Year 31 is a third day of creation season.  On the third day of creation, God moved the waters under the firmament and gathered it together in one place, caused the dry ground to appear, and commanded it to bring forth vegetation. On the third day of creation, God fought the last battle against the waters. As it were, He judged the waters under heaven and rescued the earth and its fullness, on the third day. The 31st year is a year of breakthroughs.

2. Year 31 is like a book of Leviticus year in a seven year season expressing the book of Deuteronomy. Leviticus is the third book of the Bible and is guiding light for the third year. Deuteronomy is the fifth book of the Bible and is guiding light for the seven year season (years 29-35) that expresses the fifth book of the Bible. The ‘third point’ is when real action begins. The book of Leviticus is about rules for approaching God. The book of Leviticus reveals the conditions for peace with God. The 31st year is a year devoted service to God.

3. Year 31 is a Deuteronomy 11-15 year; because it is the third year of the fifth seven years; and chapters 11-15 are the third five chapters of the fifth book. In these chapters, God releases His demands from Israel. Fulfilling the demands would bring blessings; but disregarding the demands would bring curses. Chapter 11 is a call to observe God’s commandments with love because of His acts and promises of favor and because of the consequences of disobedience. The twelfth chapter is a call to appoint a place for offerings and sacrifices; and shun idolatry and the idolatrous practices of their neighbors. They are not to eat blood with the meat. The thirteenth chapter is a call to beware of false prophets and fake guides; and to deal ruthlessly with them. The fourteenth chapter is a call to not mourn their dead the way their neighbors do; to eat only clean animals and avoid the unclean animals. In this chapter, they are also given tithing principles. The fifteenth chapter is about generosity – releasing debtors and bondservants at the end of every seven years – the seventh year of release. It also addresses the consecration of ‘the first’ to the Lord. Going through Year 31 is like going through Deuteronomy 11-15. It is a year of special devotion to God.

The fifth seven years is about the justice of God in blessing or cursing. The third year in that seven year season is the time to get serious with the demands and goal of the season. The 31st season is a season of judgment. This is ‘when the cyclone makes a landfall’. Those who have understanding and are humble will seek mercy in this season. The proud would just move on and be destroyed. 

4. Year 31 is a book of Obadiah year. Obadiah is the 31st book of the Bible. In this book, Edom is cursed  and judged because of his attitude to Israel in the day of Israel’s troubles. In this book, God proposes to cut off “everyone from the mountains of Esau”. In this book also, He promised there would be deliverance of Mount Zion; and that the House of Jacob shall possess her possessions.

5. Year 31 is a 31st-chapters-of-the-Bible year. The 31st chapters of the Bible reveal that the 31st is an ‘end season’ and a new beginning. In Genesis 31, Jacob departed Laban’s house with his wives and children. In Numbers 31, God commanded Moses to fight against the Midianites and overthrow them. They also killed Balaam there. In Deuteronomy 31, Joshua became the new leader of Israel. Moses gave his farewell speech to Israel here. In First Samuel 31, Saul and his three sons died in battle. That was the end of the reign of King Saul. In Second Chronicles 31, Hezekiah carried out sweeping religious reforms and overthrew idol worship in Judah. Job ended his speeches in the 31st chapter of the book. The book of Proverbs (the storage of divine wisdom) ends at the 31st chapter; and the 31st chapter ends at the 31st verse. That book of wisdom reveals that ‘the 31st’ is ‘the end’. The 31st chapter is also the beginning of the voice of a woman in the book of Proverbs. In Psalms 31, the psalmist prays for deliverance and against coming to an end. He also prays for the end of the wicked. Isaiah 31 is a pronouncement of judgment upon those who rebel against God – to bring them to an end. Jeremiah 31 is the New Covenant chapter. It is in this chapter that God spoke of ending the Old Covenant and introducing the New Covenant. Read Jeremiah 31:31-34. In Ezekiel 31, the prophet spoke of the overthrow and humiliation of Egypt. The 31st year is when the old narrative ends and the begins.

The longest months in the year have 31 days. After the 31st day, a new month begins. No month has 32 days! This year, decree and expect an end to certain things that should not continue in your life, family, work, nation, and world. Decree that the good will continue. In 1991, Nigeria’s 31st year, the nation moved her capital from Lagos to Abuja’s The 31st year is a year to move on; but without ‘the old’. It’s a new season! This 31st year, per the power working in you, decide what must stop and what must start.

Happy 31st year!!! Congratulations on your 30th anniversary or birthday.

The Mystery of the 51st Birthday or Anniversary

Congratulations you are 51 and stepping in the 52nd year. It is important to understand the season of your next 12 months.

Year 52 is the third year of the eighth 7 years of life. It also the third year in the second 49 years of life. Year 52 begins after the 51st Anniversary or birthday. Year 52 is a third season year. Each year consists of 52 weeks. So, the 52nd year is actually the 52nd 52 weeks of life. The number 52 represents a full cycle. Nehemiah built the walls of Jerusalem in 52 days and book of Jeremiah ends at the 52nd chapter.

The Bible patterns for understanding the 52nd year are 1) the third day of creation narrative; 2) the 52nd book of the Bible; 3) the 52nd chapters of the Bible; 4) the third of the seven sections of Ruth (Ruth 2:1-10), the 8th book of the Bible.

Year 52 is a third day of creation year in the 8th seven years of life (50-56). God moved the waters that was over the earth and set boundaries around it. God commanded the dry ground to show up; and subsequently, bring forth seed-yielding grasses and fruit-yielding trees. On the third day, God overthrew the waters, established the dry ground as solid platform, and released the life-sustaining vegetation. Year 52, therefore, is a year of overthrows in which dysfunctional people, systems, and structures are laid aside; it is a year of establishing new platforms of good; and a year of bringing forth new life. The third day is a game-changing day.

Year 52 is a book of First Thessalonians year. The book of First Thessalonians is the 52nd book of the Bible; and is applicable to the 52nd year. The 52nd book of the Bible was Paul’s first letter to the Thessalonians; was addressed to a church that had the least chance of survival. Persecution drove Paul and his team out of Thessalonica before they could do substantial work there; yet the church survived – amid great affliction. Even the Bereans were more noble than the Thessalonians (Acts 17:11) yet the Thessalonian church came up stronger than the Berean church. The purpose of this epistle was to encourage the young church and establish her in the truth. A third season like the 52nd year is for the emergence of things and people that have the slimmest chance. The Thessalonian church became a platform for spreading the gospel to other regions. Like the vegetation of the third day, she bore fruit and yielded seed. Of this church, Paul wrote in 1 Thessalonians 1:8: “For from you the word of the Lord has sounded forth, not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place. Your faith toward God has gone out, so that we do not need to say anything” Year 52 is for the emergence of people and things that have the slimmest chance.

Year 52 is a Ruth 2:1-10 year in the 8th seven years. This third section of eighth book of the Bible is applicable to the third year in the eighth seven years. This is the passage where Ruth met Boaz. She came into the field of Boaz as ‘a beggar’ seeking permission to pick up what the reapers had left behind. On that day, the owner of the farm entered the farm and saw Ruth. Boaz had no idea that Ruth was the woman that would bring him into the line and genealogy of the Messiah. The 52nd year is a year of breakthrough. It is for the emergence, or manifestation, of new vessels and their game-changing stories. Year 52 is a turning-point year.

The 52nd season is the doom’s season for the proud. It is a season of breakthrough for the Word and all who lean on it. This may involve the uprooting of the wicked. As the Lord moved the waters out of the way on the third day of creation, so, he uproots the wicked in the 52nd season. Psalm 52 bears witness to this. Psalm 52:1-7 says, “Why do you boast in evil, O mighty man? The goodness of God endures continually. [2] Your tongue devises destruction, Like a sharp razor, working deceitfully. [3] You love evil more than good, Lying rather than speaking righteousness. Selah [4] You love all devouring words, You deceitful tongue. [5] God shall likewise destroy you forever; He shall take you away, and pluck you out of your dwelling place, And uproot you from the land of the living. Selah [6] The righteous also shall see and fear, And shall laugh at him, saying, [7] “Here is the man who did not make God his strength, But trusted in the abundance of his riches, And strengthened himself in his wickedness.” The Psalmist also spoke of being like the green olive tree in the house of God forever and ever. This Psalm is about overthrow and establishment. The 52nd book of the Bible, First Thessalonians, says it is a righteous thing for God to recompense evil to those who persecute you. In Jeremiah 52, the word of the Lord concerning king Zedekiah, which came through Jeremiah, is fulfilled. Jeremiah 52 is about the disaster and misfortune that befell Jerusalem and King Zedekiah. The word of the Lord, and those who stand on it, are vindicated in the 52nd season. May disasters and misfortunes of the 52nd year be far from you. God reigns in the 52nd season. In this season, He fights for His own against those who oppress them. Isaiah 52 confirms this. Isaiah 52:1-6 says, “Awake, awake! Put on your strength, O Zion; Put on your beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city! For the uncircumcised and the unclean Shall no longer come to you. [2] Shake yourself from the dust, arise; Sit down, O Jerusalem! Loose yourself from the bonds of your neck, O captive daughter of Zion! [3] For thus says the LORD: “You have sold yourselves for nothing, And you shall be redeemed without money.” [4] For thus says the Lord GOD: “My people went down at first Into Egypt to dwell there; Then the Assyrian oppressed them without cause. [5] Now therefore, what have I here,” says the LORD, “That My people are taken away for nothing? Those who rule over them Make them wail,” says the LORD, “And My name is blasphemed continually every day. [6] Therefore My people shall know My name; Therefore they shall know in that day That I am He who speaks: ‘Behold, it is I.’”

The year 1952 was a turning point year in the 20th century. Dwight Eisenhower was elected 34th President of the United States. Republicans regained control of White House and both houses of Congress after 20 years of being the minority and opposition. The same year, Princess Elizabeth ascended the British throne and was coronated Queen Elizabeth II upon the death of her father, King George VI. She rose up because her father went down. This is the third day of the week. God is unveiling the hidden and obscure. He is restoring the displaced; and delivering the oppressed. God is compassionate and merciful. He does not disregard the lowly and humble. This year, cry out to God; and hope for ‘a positive twist in the story’.

Happy 52nd year! Receive your breakthrough and enjoy it!

The Mystery of the 68th Year

Welcome to the 68th year! This is the 12-month season following the 67th anniversary or birthday. The 68th year is the fifth year in the 10th seven years of life; and the 19th year in the second 49 years of life. It is a fifth season year. The Bible-keys for understanding and interpreting the 68th year or season are the fifth day of creation narrative, the 19th book of the Bible, the 68th chapter of Psalm, and the three chapters in the fifth division of Second Samuel (16-18).

Year 68 is a fifth-day-of-creation year in the tenth seven years. On the fifth day of creation, God made the sea creatures and the birds of the air. He filled the waters with abundance of life-expressing creatures. The creatures of the fifth day could move (fly or swim), perceive reality by their senses, make sounds, and reproduce their kind. He blessed them with fruitfulness and multiplication to keep the curses of barrenness and decimation away. Although God intended the fifth day or season to be a time of expressing life to the full, the evil one wants to limit the expression of life in the season through oppression, destructions, disease, destitution, demonic depression, and death. The fifth day of creation was the beginning of predator-prey issues. It is a season of either soaring high in the spirit or swimming in the depths of fleshly living. It is a season to take a stand with God for life and blessings.

2. Year 68 is a Second Samuel 16-18 year in the tenth 7 years (64-70). The fifth three chapters of the tenth book of the Bible (Second Samuel 16-18) are applicable to the fifth day of the tenth week. In the 16th chapter, David’s troubles reached peak-point and began to end. In the 17th chapter, Absalom’s revolution began to lose fire. Hushai, David’s companion infiltrated Absalom’s camp and defeated the wicked counsel of Ahitophel. The wicked counselor committed suicide here and came to an end. David’s friend became Absalom’s chief counselor. In the 18th chapter, Absalom died in battle. May the Lord help you and preserve you from forces and troubles that may rise against you this year. May the Lord help you to work in the spirit and triumph over your enemies. This year, the Lord will overthrow your enemies.

3. Year 68 is a book-of-Psalm year in the second 49 years (50-98); because it is the nineteenth year in the second 49 years; and Psalms is the 19th book of the Bible. The book of Psalms is a book of battles, prayers, triumphs, testimonies, and praises. It is full of cries for mercy, intervention, vindication, deliverance, and preservation. It is also full of declarations of faith in God. The psalmist found sufficiency in God; and was fully dependent on Him. This is a year to live out or express the book of Psalms. Pray like the psalmist. Declare the word like the psalmist. Give thanks and praise God like the psalmist. Year 68 is a year to trust completely and confidently in God amid pressures and conflicts.

4. Year 68 is a Psalm 68 year. Psalm 68 reveals that the 68th season is a season of war. It is a season to call the Lord to battle against our foes and enemies – forces that rise to hinder the full expression of life. Psalm 68 reveals God as the Lord of battles. This fifth season psalm reveals that God does battle by His presence in the 68th season!In this psalm of 35 (7×5) verses, reference is made to God about 81 (9×9 or 3x3x3x3) times. ’81’ is the number of divine fullness on earth (3x3x3x3). This is a psalm of the fullness of the presence of God on earth.‘God’ is used 32 times in this chapter. It is used in capital letters in verse 20. “…At the presence of God” is used thrice (verses 2 and 8).The 68th psalm leaves no room to Man except for crying out to God, singing to Him, praising Him, extolling Him, and being glad and rejoicing in His presence. In the 68th season, He is the Sole-Performer. We are only dependents and beneficiaries of His goodness. Without God, the strongest of men is powerless in the 68th season.

21 NAMES AND ATTRIBUTES OF GOD IN PSALM 68

1. Him who rides on the clouds

2. YAH

3. A father of the fatherless,

4. A defender of widows,

5. God who sets the solitary in families;

Year 68 is the beginning of the New Testament side of the tenth seven years (64-70). Every seven-year season has an Old Testament side and a New Testament side. The Old Testament side is the first four years of the season. The New Testament side is the last three years of the prophetic week. The fifth year in the seven years is the beginning of the New Testament side of the season; and has its guiding light in the first nine books of the New Testament. Year 68 is the day of the Healer, Deliverer, Redeemer, and Savor! Get ready to experience the New Testament in the 10th week. This 68th year, you will experience EMMANUEL – God with us; the Word that became flesh and dwelt among us.In the 68th season, the enemy rises against life, freedom, and resources. Only by the strength of the Almighty can he be subdued. He has failed in your life! May the Lord God go to war for you this year.

Happy 68th year!

Day 305: The Mystery of November 1

By

Day 305 is the fourth day of the 44th week, the fourth day of the second week in the seventh 49 days; the eleventh day in the seventh seven weeks of the year. It is November 1 in a clear year and October 31 in a leap year.

The Bible patterns for understanding the 305th day are 

The 4th day of creation narrative

The fourth book and chapters of the Bible

The fourth 4 chapters of the 44th book of the Bible

The 11th book and chapters of the Bible.

Day 305 is the FIRST DAY OF THE ELEVENTH MONTH: This is a day to listen to, and receive, what the Lord has to say. Deuteronomy 1:3 says, “Now it came to pass in the fortieth year, in the eleventh month, on the first day of the month, that Moses spoke to the children of Israel according to all that the LORD had given him as commandments to them”,

Day 305 is a fourth day of creation day in the 44th week of the year. The act of God on the fourth day of creation is the key to understanding a fourth season. God created the luminaries on the fourth day. He made them to be for light, to be for seasons, to divide the night from the day, to rule over the day and night,  God made luminaries on the fourth day of creation to show us that the fourth season is when darkness seeks to overtake people – through deception, intimidation, and attacks. With lights of the fourth season (the Word, the Spirit, and Wise Counsel), they would be guided through the season. 

Day 305 is a book of Numbers day in the 44th week. Israel faced several discouraging moments in the fourth book of the Bible. Those were all attempts of the kingdom of darkness to overthrow their faith and frustrate God’s plan for their lives. All they needed was to trust God and stand on His Word. Unfortunately, only very few did. 

Day 305 is a book of First Kings day in the seventh seven weeks of the year. The eleventh book of the Bible opened with Solomon as king. He built the temple and had fantastic administration. In the days of Solomon, Israel did well economically and became a tourist attraction in their world. Israel reached the peak and also began to decline in this book. In the eleventh book of the Bible, the nation split into two parts; idolatrous kings arose with very strong alliances to blackout the worship of the True God in Israel. Priests and prophets were silenced. The prophets rose to confront and overthrow the ungodly kings and their idols. Many prophets and priests were cowed and reduced to beggars with the exception of a few. The likes of Elijah and Micaiah could not be bought. Unprecedented things happened in this book. Elijah seized rain for 42 months, raised a dead child back to life, and prayed down fire from heaven. He gave the prophetic word that brought down the house of Ahab. Day 305 is a time to show that God is sovereign and supreme.

Day 305 is Acts 4 day in the 44th week. Since the 44th week is a Book of Acts of the Apostles week, the fourth chapter of the 44th book of the Bible could be a good illustrative pattern for understanding the nature of the fourth day of the 44th week. In Acts 4, the authorities, angered by their preaching, which followed the healing of the lame man, arrested the apostles and put them in custody till the following day. Many believed the gospel and were added to the church. The following day, they sat and questioned them about the power or name behind the healing of the lame man. That gave them more opportunity to preach Jesus. Unable to punish them for the good work they did on a lame man, they warned and threatened them to stop preaching Jesus and His resurrection. The apostles told the council, clearly, that they cannot stop speaking about what they had seen and heard. They did not bow to that intimidation. Remember that the 44th week is for clash of powers. The Superior Power cannot bow to the lesser power.

When they were released, they returned and reported to their own company. They cried out to God against the threats of the authorities and for boldness to preach the gospel; with confirming signs and wonders. The building where they gathered to pray shook and they were filled with the Holy Spirit and preached the word of God with boldness. The believers also walked sacrificial love.

Day 305 is Acts13-16 day. The fourth 4 chapters of the 44th book of the Bible are applicable to the fourth day of the 44th week of the year. As the fourth day is the middle of the week, these fourth 4 chapters are at the center of the book. They are also the turning point section laying the foundation for the remainder of the book. Paul and Barnabas began their first missionary journeys to gentile lands at this point. They faced troubles and persecutions and also experienced the miracle-working power of God. Saul of Tarsus became Paul in this section. The question of admitting gentiles into the church was also resolved here. The second missionary journey began here also. Mark, Timothy, and Titus came in here. Paul’s first experience of imprisonment and miraculous deliverance is recorded in the 16th chapter. Day 305 is a turning point in the 44th week. This is a day to triumph over deception and subtle powers of darkness.

Day 305 is Obadiah – Malachi day in the 44th 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 fourth day of the week is the day closing the Old Testament side of the week; and expresses the last nine books of the Old Testament. Today is the bridge-day leading to the New Testament side of the week. The books of ‘the minor prophets’ are part of the last 9 books of the O.T. They are about judgment and promises of restoration. Today is a day of the dominion of the Voice of God in the nations. Let His Voice dominate in your life.

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 an end to something in your life, family, business, community, and nation. Today, raise your voice against wickedness and oppression wherever it is found. Prophesy! Prophesy!! Prophesy!!! Today, also pray to be more sensitive in the spirit; to pick up necessary signals that would help you triumph over the enemy and keep darkness away. Today, pray to be delivered from falling into temptation. Pray to be preoccupied with the person of God; and to be focused on His mandate and His revealed purpose for your life. Be careful to weigh every decision in light of God’s purpose for your life; and God’s purpose for the time. Today, proclaim an end to woes and declare the dawn of a new day. Today, do not allow did tractions to sway you; and do not bow to intimidation. Stand by your just convictions and pray to God. Power belongs to Him. Let no circumstance intimidate or discourage you. Happy 305th day!

BORN ON THIS DAY? You were born this day for a reason. It is because of who you are and what you came to do on earth. The day you were born speaks volumes about your spiritual identity and purpose. People are born into each day because of the problems associated with the day and the answers they carry. Light was born because of darkness. You were born to be a guiding light for people seeking direction. The fourth day of the week is the day of luminaries. You were to help the confused by guiding them out of mental darkness. You were born to create order where there is disorganization and disorder. You were born to empower your world with light – wisdom, knowledge and understanding. This also reveals the kind of battles you will fight in life. Since you were born to and answer, the evil one will want to turn your life into a problem. The evil one will want you to live in confusion and be a victim of what you came to fight. To escape that, you must live by light from the word of God. If the kingdom succeeds in confusing your life, the next thing will be to make you an agent of darkness. The evil one will want to use you to confuse and deceive others. Don’t allow that to happen. That is perversion of your ordination. You were born to be a blessing. Today, give thanks to God for your life and pray that you will be the guiding light you were born to be. Happy birthday!

Day 304: The Mystery of October 31

Welcome to the 304th day of the year! Day 304 is the third day of the forty-fourth week; the third day of the second week in the seventh 49 days; the 10th day in the seventh seven weeks of the year. It is October 31 in a clear year and October 30 in a leap year. This is a game-changing day.

The Bible patterns for understanding the 304th day are 

The third day of creation narrative

The third book and chapters of the Bible

The third 4 chapters of the 44th book of the Bible

The 10th book and chapters of the Bible.

Day 304 is third day of creation day in the 44th week of the year. It is a third-season day. It is a day to rise from the dust. It is for the manifestation of the hidden and lowly. It is the season of those who are laid down. It is the season of the downtrodden. God caused the dry ground to appear on the third day of creation; and also to bring forth vegetation. Nothing is more downtrodden than the earth – dry ground. The third book of the Bible is Leviticus. It is about people and things that laid down their lives as sacrifices before the Lord and for humanity. 

The third chapter of the 44th book of the Bible is a great illustration of the nature of the third day of the 44th week of the year. In this chapter, God magnified the name of Jesus, through the mouth of His apostles, in bringing healing and wholeness to a man that was born lame. This happened at the gate called ‘Beautiful’ as Peter and John went to the temple to pray. They met the lame man that was laid daily at that gate. He desired to get money from them but they had none to give him. Instead of money, they gave him a whole body. They commanded him to rise up and walk in the name of Jesus Christ. He obeyed their command and was made well right away. He was leaping and walking and praising God. People gathered in wonder and amazement. 

Peter took advantage of the opportunity to tell the crowd that what they saw was the work of Jesus Christ who was crucified but rose again from the dead. He preached Jesus to them. The Jesus of Nazareth that was humiliated on the cross was glorified that day – in the healing of the lame man and by the preaching of Peter. The despised Galilean disciples were also magnified on that day. This work was done through their hands without the physical presence of Jesus Christ. It was their time to shake Jerusalem (of all places) and be noticed. It was also the day of the 40 year old man who was born lame. He had been at the gate of the temple begging. That day was the end of begging in his life. It was a new beginning for Him. 

How did this happen? Peter obeyed the voice of the Spirit to command the man to walk. I believe that was not the first day they saw him at that gate. That day, the Holy Spirit gave instruction and they obeyed. The lame man also obeyed the command of Peter- strange as it was to him. The third season is for ‘doing as He commands’. God calls men to His will in the third season as the third book and chapters of the Bible reveal. In the third book of the Bible, the priests and Levites had to follow detailed instructions concerning purity, sacrifices, offerings, and festivals. Adam and Eve failed in the third chapter of Genesis because they did not do as they were commanded. On the third day of creation, dry ground did as God commanded. The dry ground appeared and brought forth vegetation as the Lord had spoken. The wedding that took place at Cana of Galilee, in John 2, happened ‘on the third day’. On that day, Mary said to the servants, “Whatever He tells you to do, do it”. This is a day to act on the Word. He gives the Word, we do the word to see the work. 

Day 304 is Acts 9-12 day. The third 4 chapters of the 44th book of the Bible are applicable to the third day of the 44th week of the year. This section of the book opened and closed with overthrow of killers and oppressors. In this section, also, God manifested, exalted and established the downtrodden and despisef. In chapter 9, Jesus arrested Saul of Tarsus and made the persecutor His follower. ‘Unknown’ Ananias was God’s instrument for getting Saul of Tarsus started. Through the ministry of Peter, bedridden Aeneas was healed; and compassionate Dorcas was raised from the dead. In chapter 10, Gentile Cornelius and his household, received the gospel, were filled with the Holy Spirit and baptized with water. In the 11th chapter, the Jewish believers criticized Peter for having fellowship with gentiles. He successfully defended his actions .In this chapter, attention is drawn to the church at Antioch, the prophetic ministry of Agabus, and how they gathered relief for believers in Jerusalem in preparation for famine. In chapter 12, Herod imprisoned Peter after beheading James. The church prayed earnestly for Peter. An angel released him effortlessly from prison. Herod died in this chapter. Day 304 is for overthrowing death and murderers. It is for exalting the lowly and raising new sustaining platforms. Saul of Tarsus, the ‘next generation’ leader emerged in this section of the 44th book of the Bible. This is a day of change – a day to overthrow the dysfunctional and establish the purposeful.

Day 304 is a book-of-Second-Samuel day in the seventh seven weeks of the year. Second Samuel is the tenth book of the Bible; and is applicable to the 10th day in the seventh 49 days of the year. David became king of all Israel in this book. As far as Saul was concerned, David was a man “appointed to die’. He had no rest in the ninth book of the Bible; but in the tenth book of the Bible, God gave him rest and established him. This day is for the exaltation of the humble and lowly. The book Second Samuel opened with David’s lamentation for Saul and Jonathan. It opened with deaths – of Saul, Jonathan, Asahel, Abner, and Ishbosheth; and mentions many others. The 10th book of the Bible is a book of overthrows and manifestations. May this 304th day of the year not be a day of deaths and lamentations. It should be a day of resurrection and escape from death. It is a season of overthrowing death and agents of death. It is a season of answers to prayers. The dicey thing about seasons, and why we need to watch over gates of time, is that the enemy would want to kill in a season when God wants to save lives. There is a season for every purpose under heaven; we only want things to happen at the right time. We don’t want a time of births to become a time of deaths; or for a time of laughter to become a time of weeping.

Day 304 is Ecclesiastes – Amos Day in the 44th 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, the Lord will turn the table around for you. Happy 304th day! 

BORN ON THIS DAY? You were born on this day for a reason. That reason is about your identity and purpose. You were born on this day because of who you are and because of the work you were wired to do. As light was born to keep darkness away, you were born to solve problems associated with this day. You are part of the Creator’s Solution Team released on this day. This a day of war against death and dryness. Sustainers and preservers of life are needed on this day. That is the reason God commanded the dry ground to bring forth vegetation on the third day. Plants are pro-life. That is where food and medicines come from. You were born on this day because you were designed to fight for life – physical or spiritual. How you do it depends on your passion and vocation or training. Some are doing this from the medical field. Some are farmers, food distributors and retailers, some are religious leaders. Some are teachers. Some are philanthropists, and so on. They are all in the business of saving lives. Since that is your calling, the enemies of life will fight you. The evil one will do everything to frustrate you and make you a victim and keep you busy with trying to save your own life. Another thing the evil one will seek to do is to pervert your mind and ordination by luring or deceiving you to become and agent of death. This may not involve killing people directly. If you are not pushing for wholesome living in the things you do, you would be aiding death. Stay in alignment with the Creator. Today, give thanks to God for your life and pray to stand strong in your ordination. Happy birthday!

Day 303: The Mystery of October 30

By

Welcome to the 303rd day of the year! Day 303 is the second day of the 44th week; the second day of the second week in the seventh seven weeks of the year; the ninth day in the seventh 49 days of the year. It is October 30 in a clear year and October 29 in a leap year. Day 303 is a core second season day.

The Bible patterns for understanding the 303rd day are 

The second day of creation narrative

The second book and chapters of the Bible

The second 4 chapters of the 44th book of the Bible

The 9th book and chapters of the Bible.

Day 303 is a second day of creation day in the 44th week. On the second day of creation, God made the firmament to divide the bloc of waters that covered everywhere and made space impossible. In second seasons, God releases help to thwart the monopoly of problems. Day 303 is a second season day; and is for making way where there is no way. The second chapters of the Bible bear witness to this. 

The second chapter of the 44th book of the Bible is a about making way where there is no way. That was when the Helper (the Holy Spirit came to empower the Church and make way for her to become a dynamic force in Jerusalem. In obedience to the Lord Jesus Christ, the believers were all together in one place. “And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. [3] Then there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and one sat upon each of them. [4] And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance” (Acts 2:2-4).

What happened on that day at the Upper Room, drew the attention of many people who came from different nations to celebrate the feast of Pentecost at Jerusalem. A crowd gathered, and their amazements, doubts, and misconceived opinion, gave Peter an opportunity to speak up in defense of the phenomenon. His words pierced the hearts of the listeners like arrows. At the end of his speech, three thousand people believed, were baptized, and added to the church. No human operation can beat that. They were not ‘prepared’ for what happened that day; but no preparation could have given them a better result. 

Day 303 is a book of Exodus day in the 44th week. and a book-of-First-Samuel day in the seventh 49 days of the year. Which ever way it goes, Day 303 is a day to break or thwart monopolies. In the book of Exodus, God broke the strength of Pharaoh and released Israel from bondage. In the ninth book of the Bible, Hannah prevailed over barrenness through prayers. She received what was thought impossible for her to receive. Both in the book of Exodus and in the book of First Samuel, prayer played a significant role in breaking the barriers to desires.

Day 303 is Acts 5-8 day. The second 4 chapters of the 44th book of the Bible are applicable to the second day of the 44th week of the year. In the fifth chapter, Ananias and Sapphira could not escape with their falsehood. The Holy Spirit led Peter to break into their well-kept secret. The Holy Spirit helped Peter to find a way where there is no way. They died instantly for lying to the Holy Spirit. In the same chapter, Peter was imprisoned for preaching the gospel but an angel of God released him from the prison and told him to go to the temple and preach the words of life. Peter’s shadow healed the sick in this chapter. In the sixth chapter, the seven deacons were appointed to help with daily distribution so the apostles can focus on prayer and the ministry of the word. Stephen stood out among the seven. He was falsely accused of blasphemy. He was stoned to death in the seventh chapter. In the 8th chapter, believers scattered from Jerusalem because of persecution. They took the gospel with them. Philip reached out to Samaria; and eventually to the Ethiopian Eunuch. God took advantage of the persecution of believers in Jerusalem to make a way for the gospel to get into other lands. God makes a way where there is no way in second seasons like Day 303. In second seasons, he works through prayer, the Holy Spirit, angelic messengers, strangers, prophets, women, and even mishaps, to make a way.

Day 303 is a First Kings – to – Proverbs 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 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 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, desire the power of the Holy Spirit to break the strength of oppression in your life and circumstances, empower you for service in the ministry, make a way where there is no way for the needy in the church, and make a way for the needs in your life. Happy 303rd day! 

BORN ON THIS DAY? You were born on this day for a reason. It’s about who you are and what you came to do on earth. The day you were born speaks volumes about who you are and why you exist. You were born on this day because you are part of the Creator’s solution to problems associated with this day. This is a day of war against space blockers and evil monopolies and compassionate way-makers and freedom fighters are a great need. You were born on this day because the Creator designed you to be a freedom fighter and a compassionate way maker. Christopher Columbus, the explorer who discovered the Americas and the sea route to West Indies, was born on this day. John Adams, the second President of the United States, was also born on this day. People born on this day have battles they must fight. They must win personal battles against roadblocks. The evil one will fight to block them out and rob them of space. They must overcome impediments and barriers. Secondly, they must resist the temptation to become space blockers. The kingdom of darkness will strive to pervert their ordination and turn them into agents of oppression. He will want to use them to build what they were born to destroy. Do not give in to those traps. Today, give thanks to God for your life and pray to stand strong in your ordination. Happy birthday!
