Day 203: The Mystery of July 22

July 21, 2020

Welcome to a new day!

Let us begin with the FIVE DESCRIPTIONS OF THE DAY: These will help you to view the day from its different angles.

Today Is

1. July 22 (in a Clear year) but July 21 (in a Leap year).

2. The seventh day of the 29th Week (July 16 – 22 in a Clear year/ July 15 – 21 in a Leap year).

3. The seventh day in the fifth 7 Weeks of the year. (July 16 – September 2 in a clear year/ July 15 – September 1 in a leap year).

4. The 203rd day of the year (from January 1). In this article, this day will be called Day 203.

5. it is a seventh-season day because it is the seventh day of the 29th week of the year.

FIVE BIBLICAL PATTERNS FOR THE DAY

The Bible patterns for understanding this 203rd day are

1. The seventh day of creation narrative.(Genesis 2: 1-3)

2. The seventh book of the Bible (Judges)

3. The seventh chapters of the books of the Bible.

4. Joel 3:18-21 (the seventh section of the 29th book of the Bible).

5. The third and last 9 books of the New Testament (Hebrews –Revelation).

Day 203 is a seventh day of creation day. God ended the work of creation on the seventh day and rested. He blessed the seven day and made it holy. God intends the seventh day to be a day of rest and blessings; but how it turns out depends, largely, on what people do on the day. So, the seventh day is a day of blessings and curses – depending on which way we go. It is both for deliverance and destruction. Jesus saved lives on the seventh day but the wall of Jericho was also destroyed on the seventh day. The flood is recorded in the seventh chapter of Genesis but Noah also found mercy in that seventh chapter. The seventh book of the Bible records both oppression and deliverance. The key to a happy seventh season is giving God His due.

Although Psalm 29 applies generally to the 29th week, it is also applicable to Day 203. When God is given His due, He releases His power in favor of His people.

Psalm 29:1-11: “Give unto the LORD, O you mighty ones, Give unto the LORD glory and strength. [2] Give unto the LORD the glory due to His name; Worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness. [3] The voice of the LORD is over the waters; The God of glory thunders; The LORD is over many waters. [4] The voice of the LORD is powerful; The voice of the LORD is full of majesty. [5] The voice of the LORD breaks the cedars, Yes, the LORD splinters the cedars of Lebanon. [6] He makes them also skip like a calf, Lebanon and Sirion like a young wild ox. [7] The voice of the LORD divides the flames of fire. [8] The voice of the LORD shakes the wilderness; The LORD shakes the Wilderness of Kadesh. [9] The voice of the LORD makes the deer give birth, And strips the forests bare; And in His temple everyone says, “Glory!” [10] The LORD sat enthroned at the Flood, And the LORD sits as King forever. [11] The LORD will give strength to His people; The LORD will bless His people with peace.

Day 203 is a Joel 3:18-21 day. Joel is the 29th book of the Bible. The seventh section of the 29th book of the Bible is applicable to the seventh day of the 29th week of the year. The seventh and last part of Joel reveals that the seventh season is a season of joy for God’s favored people; and a season of tears for the enemies of His people. Joel 3:18-21 says, “And it will come to pass in that day That the mountains shall drip with new wine, The hills shall flow with milk, And all the brooks of Judah shall be flooded with water; A fountain shall flow from the house of the LORD And water the Valley of Acacias. [19] “Egypt shall be a desolation, And Edom a desolate wilderness, Because of violence against the people of Judah, For they have shed innocent blood in their land. [20] But Judah shall abide forever, And Jerusalem from generation to generation. [21] For I will acquit them of the guilt of bloodshed, whom I had not acquitted; For the LORD dwells in Zion.”

Day 203 is a seventh Book of the Bible day. It is also a seventh chapters of the Bible day. Judges is the seventh book of the Bible and is applicable to all seventh seasons. God’s people often think that the seventh season (the seventh of any seven days, weeks, years, 49 years, or century) is an automatic season of rest. That is what God intends. However the seventh book and chapters of the Bible reveal that seventh season is not a fixed or automatic season of blessings and rest. The 21st century is a seventh-season century and has not been disaster-free.

There are three things that make the seventh season a season of blessings and rest.

The first is honoring God through obedience or repentance. Israel suffered in the seventh book of the Bible for turning away from God. Hope only came when they repented and turned to God. That is the reason Second Chronicles 7:13-14 says, “When I shut up heaven and there is no rain, or command the locusts to devour the land, or send pestilence among My people, if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land”. Dishonoring God makes the seventh season catastrophic. For sin, flood destroyed humanity in Genesis 7. For the pride and stubbornness of Pharaoh, plagues began in Egypt in Exodus 7. Achan and his family perished in Joshua 7 for dishonoring God. It was for the sin of Achan that Ai defeated Israel in the same chapter. Stephen was stoned in Acts 7 because the Church settled in Jerusalem.

The second is the availability of intervention. The availability of an intervening Savior makes the seventh day a day of salvation, It was the Judges that made a difference in the seventh book of the Bible. Gideon led Israel to war and brought victory in Judges 7. Samuel helped Israel against the Philistines in First Samuel 7. Elisha ended famine in Second Kings 7. Jesus raised the widow’s son about to be buried in Luke. Jesus healed on the Sabbath. There was no intervention for Stephen in Acts 7.

The third thing is finishing the work of the sixth day. If God had not finished His work on the sixth day, He would not have rested on the seventh day. If you take your rest on the sixth day, you will be compelled to labor in the season of rest. If Israel had destroyed the Amorites in the sixth book of the Bible, they would have rested in the seventh book. Noah was safe in Genesis 7 because he built the Ark in Genesis 6.

Day 203 is a Hebrews – Revelation day in the 29th 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. Day 203 is a day of the last battle and ultimate triumph in the 29th 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, 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. Seek intervention and be ready to intervene where necessary and possible. May this last day of the week be the end of the week’s toil. May it be a blessed day of rest for you. Happy 203rd day!

BORN ON THIS DAY? You were born on this day because of who God made you to and the purpose he wants you to fulfill. This is a day of Intervention, deliverance, and rest. God made you for rest and not distress; but you must continually pursue alignment and peace with the Creator. That is the secret of rest in your life. If your life is out of alignment, with the Creator’s purposes, you need to turn to Him You were also made to lead others to peace with God. You were also made to fight the oppressor and bring the oppressed into rest. So, here are three things you must give attention to: Pursue the pleasure of God without looking back. Set your heart on leading others into rest by fighting agents of oppression and distress in their lives. Teach and lead others to turn to God from sin and pursue His pleasure.

Day 202: The Mystery of July 21

Nkem Okemiri

July 20, 2020

Welcome to a new day!

Let us begin with the FIVE DESCRIPTIONS OF THE DAY: These will help you to view the day from its different angles.

Today Is

1. July 21 (in a Clear year) but July 20 (in a Leap year).

2. The sixth day of the 29th Week (July 16 – 22 in a Clear year/ July 15 – 21 in a Leap year).

3. The sixth day in the fifth 7 Weeks of the year. (July 16 – September 2 in a clear year/ July 15 – September 1 in a leap year).

4. The 202nd day of the year (from January 1). In this article, this day will be called Day 202.

5. it is a sixth-season day because it is the sixth day of the 29th week of the year.

FIVE BIBLICAL PATTERNS FOR THE DAY

The Bible patterns for understanding this 202nd day are

1. The sixth day of creation narrative.(Genesis 1: 24-31)

2. The sixth book of the Bible (Joshua)

3. The sixth chapters of the books of the Bible.

4. Joel 2:18-27 (the fifth section of the 29th book of the Bible).

5. The second 9 books of the New Testament (Ephesians –Philemon).

Day 202 is a sixth season day. It is a sixth day of creation season. On the sixth day of creation, God created land animals. He also made man in His image and likeness. He gave man the mandate to rule and have dominion over sea creatures and land animals. He blessed man with fruitfulness and multiplication and communicated with man concerning the provisions He made for food. The sixth season is a season of conflict because where there is no conflict, there would be no need to subdue, rule and have dominion. Genesis 1:24-31 says, “Then God said, “Let the earth bring forth the living creature according to its kind: cattle and creeping thing and beast of the earth, each according to its kind”; and it was so. [25] And God made the beast of the earth according to its kind, cattle according to its kind, and everything that creeps on the earth according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. [26] Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” [27] So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. [28] Then God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth.” [29] And God said, “See, I have given you every herb that yields seed which is on the face of all the earth, and every tree whose fruit yields seed; to you it shall be for food. [30] Also, to every beast of the earth, to every bird of the air, and to everything that creeps on the earth, in which there is life, I have given every green herb for food”; and it was so. [31] Then God saw everything that He had made, and indeed it was very good. So the evening and the morning were the sixth day.”

God supports and favors His image in the sixth season. In the sixth chapter of Genesis, God vowed to destroy ungodly humanity. In the sixth of the Bible, God led Israel to destroy the Amorites and possess their lands. They destroyed Jericho in the sixth chapter of the sixth book of the Bible. In the sixth chapter of Second Kings, Elisha blinded and arrested Syrian forces sent to arrest him. In the sixth chapter of Daniel, God overthrew the enemies of Daniel after he survived the den of lions. In the sixth chapter of Revelation, the Lamb of God began to loose the seals of the Scroll; and judgments began. The Second World War broke out within the sixth seven years of the 20th Century and claimed lives. 2020 is the sixth year in the third seven years of the 21st century and here we have Coronavirus. What is it about the sixth?

Day 202 is a Book of Joshua day in the 29th week. It is also a sixth chapters of the Bible day. The sixth book and chapters of the Bible reveal that God seeks men who would represent His intentions and purposes in the sixth season. God’s agenda for the sixth season is overthrow people and things that do not bear His semblance; and then establish people and things that bear His semblance. The sixth season is a season of conflict between the godly and the ungodly in which God gives dominion to the godly. The sixth season is for the recovery of godliness on earth.

The 29th chapters of the Bible apply generally to the 29th week but the 29th chapter of Second Chronicles can be applied specially to the sixth day of the 29th week. In that chapter, King Hezekiah is God’s agent restoring the worship of the true God, according to the Law of Moses and according to the pattern established by David. He led Judah into a revival of faith and even threw it open to the Northern kingdom.

Day 202 is a Joel 3:1-17 day. In the 29th week Joel is the 29th book of the Bible; and the sixth part of the book is applicable to the sixth day of the 29th week. In this passage, God vows to draw the enemies of His people to the valley of Jehoshaphat and judge them there. This is a day of judgment against ungodliness. Joel 3:1-17 says, “For behold, in those days and at that time, When I bring back the captives of Judah and Jerusalem, [2] I will also gather all nations, And bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat; And I will enter into judgment with them there On account of My people, My heritage Israel, Whom they have scattered among the nations; They have also divided up My land. [3] They have cast lots for My people, Have given a boy as payment for a harlot, And sold a girl for wine, that they may drink. [4] “Indeed, what have you to do with Me, O Tyre and Sidon, and all the coasts of Philistia? Will you retaliate against Me? But if you retaliate against Me, Swiftly and speedily I will return your retaliation upon your own head; [5] Because you have taken My silver and My gold, And have carried into your temples My prized possessions. [6] Also the people of Judah and the people of Jerusalem You have sold to the Greeks, That you may remove them far from their borders. [7] “Behold, I will raise them Out of the place to which you have sold them, And will return your retaliation upon your own head. [8] I will sell your sons and your daughters Into the hand of the people of Judah, And they will sell them to the Sabeans, To a people far off; For the LORD has spoken.” [9] Proclaim this among the nations: “Prepare for war! Wake up the mighty men, Let all the men of war draw near, Let them come up. [10] Beat your plowshares into swords And your pruning hooks into spears; Let the weak say, ‘I am strong.'” [11] Assemble and come, all you nations, And gather together all around. Cause Your mighty ones to go down there, O LORD. [12] “Let the nations be wakened, and come up to the Valley of Jehoshaphat; For there I will sit to judge all the surrounding nations. [13] Put in the sickle, for the harvest is ripe. Come, go down; For the winepress is full, The vats overflow- For their wickedness is great.” [14] Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision! For the day of the LORD is near in the valley of decision. [15] The sun and moon will grow dark, And the stars will diminish their brightness. [16] The LORD also will roar from Zion, And utter His voice from Jerusalem; The heavens and earth will shake; But the LORD will be a shelter for His people, And the strength of the children of Israel. [17] “So you shall know that I am the LORD your God, Dwelling in Zion My holy mountain. Then Jerusalem shall be holy, And no aliens shall ever pass through her again.”

Day 202 is Ephesians – Philemon day in the 29th 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. Day 202 is a day to thrive through instructions. The second 9 books of the N.T are mentoring books. The pastoral epistles of Paul are in this section.

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’re not a backslider, you can still get closer to the Lord. 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. Happy 202nd day!

Day 46: The Mystery of February 15

Nkem Okemiri

July 19, 2020

Welcome to the 46th day of the year! Day 46 is the fourth day of the seventh week of the year. This is the first major ’46th’ in the year. The other major ’46th’ is the 46th week. The Bible patterns for understanding the 46th day are 1) the fourth day of creation narrative; 2) the 46th book of the Bible; 3) the 46th chapters of the Bible; 4) the fourth three chapters (10-12) of Judges, the seventh book of the Bible.

Day 46 is a fourth day of creation day in the seventh week. The 46th is the fourth in the 7th seven (43-49). On the fourth day of creation, God made the luminaries – sun, moon, and stars. He made them to be illuminating and guiding lights. The lights of the fourth day make announcements that would help you know what you ought to do. They are the bell-ringers. They were the time-regulators before the advent of clocks and calendars. Day 46 is clarification and clarity day. It is a day of war against confusion and disorder. Darkness makes room for deception, stumbling, and fear. God intended the lights of the fourth day to keep these away. Day 46 is a day to be guided and helped by light. It is a day to shine as light to help those sitting in darkness.

Day 46 is book of First Corinthians day in the first 49 days of the year. The church at Corinth was, in many ways, under spiritual darkness. Paul’s first epistle to the Corinthians saved the Church from confusion. The church struggled with, and was threatened by, division, moral challenges, self-conceit, and controversies. The 46th book is an order-book. In this book, Paul said, “Let all things be done decently and in order”. He peached the message of love and tolerance against self-centeredness and pride. Day 46 is a day to forge ahead through unity. It is a day to triumph through love. It is a tine to seek or pursue the glory of God and the good of others. It is a time to come together. The world began to come together in 1946 after WW2. The UN General Assembly held their first session on January 10, 1946, in London and was attended by representatives from 51 nations. 1946 was a Book of First Corinthians year in the 20th century. It was a season to move from division to unity. The revival of supernatural healing and miracles that began June 1946 was another expression of First Corinthians in the year. The Word of God rules! This 46th day of the year is a Book of First Corinthians day. It is a day to experience supernatural unity and togetherness and wholeness in your life, family, community, and nation. Go for it! Let there be unity where there had been division. Let there be healing where there had been disease. Let there be soundness where there had been rottenness. Let there be a witness, today, that God is in you and with you.

Day 46 is a Judges 10-12 day in the seventh week. The fourth three chapters of the seventh book of the Bible is applicable to the fourth day of the seventh week of the year. In the fourth three chapters of Judges, God raised six people to save Israel from her oppressors and enemies; and they judged Israel for a total of 76 years: Tola, Jair, Jephthah, Ibzan, Elon, and Abdon. They were warriors and guiding lights for Israel in a season of great darkness. Jephthah fought in Judges 11 and He was Israel’s judge in the eleventh seven years of the is period. Not much is said or known about the other Judges except the size of their families and how long they judged Israel. The 46th day or season is not about you. It is about you and others. Jephthah’s brothers once rejected him because he was born by a concubine. Their attitude towards him was “we have no need of you”. Time and circumstances proved them wrong. Pride is a destroyer in the 46th season. Jephthah fulfilled a vow that cost him all he had to honor God. His daughter also accepted to be a burnt offering so her father could fulfill his vow to God. The 46th day is a season to make sacrifices for the good of others and for the glory of God. It is not a ‘me – me – me’ season. It is a ‘we-and-us’ season. The war between Ephraimites and Gileadites was rooted in pride and envy. The Ephraimites did not answer Jephthah’s call to help; but after he defeated his enemies, they quarreled with him for going to war without them. They were envious. They just wanted to be part of the victory and success story; not the fight. Day 46 is a season to rejoice with those who rejoice and weep with those who weep.

Day 46 is a 46th-chapters-of-the-Bible day. The 46th chapters of the Bible reveal that 46th season is a transition season for which one may have concern, or worries, for the future. So, do not allow fear settle in your heart in the 46th season. It is a season to trust in God completely; and not be afraid. A reassuring word is very comforting in this season. That is the reason you need this revelation. In Genesis 46, Jacob and his entire family set out to go to Egypt on the invitation of Pharaoh and Joseph. The Lord spoke to him to not be afraid of going to Egypt. He assured him that everything would go well. You should not be afraid of the unknown or unfamiliar in the 46th season. You should trust in God completely.

In Psalm 46, the psalmist affirms his faith in God as his Refuge and Strength; and declares he would not fear. A refuge is a hiding place in times of trouble. Strength is for exploits and resistance. In the 46th season, God is both Refuge and Strength. The 46th season is a time to hide in God and His word – because of trouble. It is also a time to go forth with the strength of God to resist and subdue the forces of darkness.

Isaiah 46 is a reassuring word from God to the House of Jacob: “Listen to Me, O house of Jacob, And all the remnant of the house of Israel, Who have been upheld by Me from birth, Who have been carried from the womb: [4] Even to your old age, I am He, And even to gray hairs I will carry you! I have made, and I will bear; Even I will carry, and will deliver you” (Isaiah 46:3-4 NKJV).

Jeremiah 46 is a word of judgment against Egypt because the nation did not trust in God. There is also reassuring word to the House of Jacob in the closing verses of this chapter: “But do not fear, O My servant Jacob, And do not be dismayed, O Israel! For behold, I will save you from afar, And your offspring from the land of their captivity; Jacob shall return, have rest and be at ease; No one shall make him afraid. [28] Do not fear, O Jacob My servant,” says the LORD, “For I am with you; For I will make a complete end of all the nations To which I have driven you, But I will not make a complete end of you. I will rightly correct you, For I will not leave you wholly unpunished” (Jeremiah 46:27-28 NKJV).

The 46th season is also a time to play by the rules. You need to be guided in this season. It is not a season to do whatever you want. In Genesis 46, Joseph guided his family how to speak to Pharaoh and what to ask from him. Ezekiel 46 is about rules concerning the Prince’s movements in the sanctuary, his offerings, and property. It is about what you might do and what you must not do. The book of First Corinthians, the 46th book of the Bible, is Paul’s first written guide to the Church at Corinth; to guide her out of confusion. In the 46th season, do not fear; just unite, and follow the rules.

Day 46 is Obadiah – Malachi day in the 7th 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 light from the Voice of God in the nations. Let His enlightening 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, take your stand on God’s word; declare your faith in God; enjoy the gift of relationship others, and refuse to fear. Happy 46th day!

Day 45: The Mystery of February 14

Nkem Okemiri

July 19, 2020

Welcome to the 45th day of the year! Day 45 is the third day of the seventh week of the year. This is the first major ’45th’ in the year. The other major ’45th’ is the 45th week. The Bible patterns for understanding the 45th day are 1) the second day of creation narrative; 2) the 45th book of the Bible; 3) the 45th chapters of the Bible; 4) the third three chapters (7-9) of Judges, the seventh book of the Bible.

Day 45 is a third day of creation day. On the third day of creation, God overthrew the waters; revealed and established the dry ground as a platform for the sustenance of life. The third day is a battle by the word. It is a day to push back oppression, dysfunctional systems, and overhead hindrances, to uncover hidden people and platforms. The 45th is pushing back lies and error to expose truth. It is a day of overthrow and revelation.

Day 45 is a book of Romans day. In this book, Paul wrote about the wrath of God revealed against all unrighteousness of men. He also wrote about the revelation of the righteousness which is by faith. In the 45th book, Jesus Christ is revealed as the end of seeking righteousness by the Law. In this book, through Christ, righteousness and life displaces sin and death; grace displaces Law; and faith displaces works.

Day 45 is a Judges 7-9 day. This third three chapters of Judges is about Gideon. He was the least of the least in Israel; yet, God used him, and his unarmed three hundred men, to defeat the superior army of the Midianites and deliver Israel. In the ninth chapter, after the death of Gideon, Abimelech conspired against his father’s house, killed the seventy sons of Gideon, and sought to make himself king over Israel. He was going to institute monarch in Israel before the time. “But a certain woman dropped an upper millstone on Abimelech’s head and crushed his skull” (Judges 9:53).

Day 45 is a 45th-chapters-of-the-Bible day. I will share 3 things about the mystery of the 45th season from the from the 45th chapters of the Bible; and also from the 45th book of the Bible.

1. The 45th season is the end of lies and confusion. It is a season of encounter with truth that can be enlightening, comforting, horrifying, and even embarrassing. It is a season of truths hard to believe. Hidden things are revealed in the 45th season. In Genesis 45, Joseph introduced himself to his brothers in the presence of Benjamin and dismantled 15-year old lies. In this chapter, also, Jacob began to hear the truth about his son Joseph whom they said. had been torn by wild beasts. It was a shocking revelation. The 45th book of the Bible, Romans, is a book of liberating revelations concerning the gospel. Nothing can be hidden in the 45th season. It is a season to expose all things.

2. The 45th season is a season of mercy and grace. In Genesis 45, Joesph’s brothers experienced both. Mercy took away the punishment they deserved. Grace gave them privileges they did not deserve. The 45th book of the Bible is about the justification of the unjust. It is about grace abounding much more, where sin abounds.

3. The 45th season is for the King. Kings and rulers are mentioned in all 45s of the Bible. In the 45th season, God is the Royal Majesty and Performer of all things. He does what He wants; and you can’t question Him. In Genesis 45:7-8, Joseph said, “God sent me before you to preserve a posterity for you in the earth, and to save your lives by a great deliverance. [8] So now it was not you who sent me here, but God; and He has made me a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house, and a ruler throughout all the land of Egypt”. In Isaiah 45:7, God says, “I form the light and create darkness, I make peace and create calamity; I, the LORD, do all these things.’ In Isaiah 45:9, He says, “Woe to him who strives with his Maker! Let the potsherd strive with the potsherds of the earth! Shall the clay say to him who forms it, ‘What are you making?’ Or shall your handiwork say, ‘He has no hands’?” In Jeremiah 45:4, the Prophet is given a word for Baruch: “Thus you shall say to him, ‘Thus says the LORD: “Behold, what I have built I will break down, and what I have planted I will pluck up, that is, this whole land. Ezekiel 45:9 says, ‘Thus says the Lord GOD: “Enough, O princes of Israel! Remove violence and plundering, execute justice and righteousness, and stop dispossessing My people,” says the Lord GOD. The 45th book, Romans 9:20 says, “But indeed, O man, who are you to reply against God? Will the thing formed say to him who formed it, “Why have you made me like this?”

Day 45 is Ecclesiastes – Amos Day in the seventh 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. On this 45th day, may the lies of your visible and invisible enemies be uncovered and buried forever; may the TRUTH of your identity in Christ rise above every lie of the devil; may grace and mercy be your covering; and also flow from you; may the irresistible power of the Sovereign Lord work wonders for you today. Happy 45th day.

ON THIS DAY in 2018, Paul Manafort, former Campaign Chairman for Donald Trump is charged with lying to Russia Probe investigators. The 45th season is for exposing lies and liars.

Day 44: The Mystery of February 13

Nkem Okemiri

July 19, 2020

Welcome to the 44th day of the year! Day 44 is the first day of the seventh week of the year. This is the first major ’44th’ in the year. The other major ’44th’ is the 44th week. The Bible patterns for understanding the 44th day are 1) the second day of creation narrative; 2) the 44th book of the Bible; 3) the 44th chapters of the Bible; 4) the second three chapters (4-6) of Judges, the seventh book of the Bible.

Day 44 is a second-day-of-creation day. On the second day of creation, God used the intangible firmament to divide and drive the waters apart. The firmament is called “the firmament of his power” in Psalm 150:1 (KJV) or “His mighty firmament” (NKJV). The power behind the firmament is God’s. Day 44 is the day of God’s mighty ‘firmamental’ power. It is the day of the Horizontal Water Divider. Day 44 is a day to release power against hindering forces and barriers. This is a day of releasing power to make a way where there’s none. Today, the power of God will work for you as the firmament of God triumphed over the waters on the second day of creation.

Day 44 is Acts-of-the-Apostles day in the first 49 days of the year. In Acts, the 44th book of the Bible, the Holy Spirit came upon the Church. Those who knew God honored Him above Man; and so, were honored; but those who despised Him were put to shame. In this book, God mocked the prison walls, gates, and chains, of ungodly rulers. He made a mess of idols, the devil, and demons. In the book of Acts, great things happened by the power of God; through His Spirit. The Holy Spirit was the firmament in the book of Acts and worked through the prayers of God’s people. He worked through angels and the word-ministry of the Apostles. The people rested and God worked! When the lame man at the Beautiful Gate was healed, Peter quickly pointed out that it was not by their power or holiness that the man was healed; but through faith in the name of Jesus Christ. In Acts 3:16, he said, “And His name, through faith in His name, has made this man strong, whom you see and know. Yes, the faith which comes through Him has given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all”. Day 44 is a day of God’s Mighty Delivering Power. It is a day to stand as God’s witness and demonstrate that the power and authority belongs to Him.

Day 44 is a 44th-chapters-of-the-Bible day. On this 44th day of the year, may the Lord subdue and humiliate every power that contends with Him in your life. This is a day of experiencing authority – good and evil – the power of darkness and the Power of Light. In the 44th season, the arrogance of the natural man touches the heavens as he seeks the place of Final Authority. This brings Him into collision with God; and the rest is history. The 44th season is not a season of hearing what God can do but a season of seeing the power and glory of God – to judge and to vindicate.

Psalm 44:1 says “We have heard with our ears, O God, Our fathers have told us, The deeds You did in their days, In days of old”. In Genesis 44, Jacob’s sons got into ‘trouble’ with the Egyptian authority; and needed the intervention of the God of their fathers. In Isaiah 44, the Lord is the Incomparable Helper. Isaiah 44:23 says, “Sing, O heavens, for the LORD has done it! Shout, you lower parts of the earth; Break forth into singing, you mountains, O forest, and every tree in it! For the LORD has redeemed Jacob, And glorified Himself in Israel”. Jeremiah 44 shows that in the 44th season, faith in God is greatly rewarded; but rebellion against God has grave consequences. Jews who sought refuge in Egypt in defiance of God’s word would be punished. In Ezekiel 44, God ruled against those who meddle with abominations. God is Lord and is to be honored as Final Authority in the 44th season. Day 44 is the day of “the arm of the Lord”.

Day 44 is a Judges 4-6 day in the seventh week of the year. The book of Judges is the seventh book of the Bible. The second three chapters of the seventh book of the Bible is applicable to Day 44 – the second day of the seventh week of the year. In the second three chapters of Judges, Deborah, Barak, and Gideon were God’s instruments against the enemies of Israel. Deborah and Barak fought against Jabin king of Hazor and his captain Sisera; and defeated them. Gideon was raised to take on battle against the Midianites. The judges fought battles by the Spirit of God – not their own strength. Day 44 is like the day a woman’s tent peg pierced the head of Sisera. It is like the day of Deborah’s song of victory. It is like the day God called Gideon a “mighty man of valor”; and told him to “go in this your might”. In the 44th season, God uses the weak things of this world to show that power belongs to Him alone.

1944 was the year of Operation Overlord in World War 2. It was the year that laid the foundation for the victory of the Allied Forces against the German Axis Alliance. June 6, 1944 was D-Day – when “more than 156,000 American, British, and Canadian troops stormed 50 miles of Normandy’s fiercely defended beaches in northern France in an operation that proved to be a critical turning point in World War II”. The 44th season is a time to show power! The motto of the godly in the 44th season should be ‘God Reigns’; and the power of our Reigning God is released through prayer, proclamation, and praise. Today, believe God that no power can stop you or keep you in prison or bondage.

Day 44 is a First Kings – to – Proverbs Day in the seventh 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.! Happy 44th day!

ON THIS DAY in 2021, Donald Trump was acquitted by the Senate in the second impeachment. The Senate voted 57 -43. He became the first US President to be impeached twice and acquitted twice.

The Mystery of the 43rd Day

Nkem Okemiri

July 19, 2020

Welcome to the 43rd day of the year! Day 43 is the first day of the seventh week of the year. This is the first major ’43rd’ in the year. The other major ’43td’ is the 43rd week. The Bible patterns for understanding the 43rd day are 1) the first day of creation narrative; 2) the 43rd book of the Bible; 3) the 43rd chapters of the Bible; 4) the first three chapters (1-3) of Judges, the seventh book of the Bible.

Day 43 is a first day of creation day in the seventh week. This is a day of action. The Creator stepped into action on the first. This is a day of releasing light to act against darkness. It is a day of the Word against the forces of darkness. On the first day of creation, when God said, “Let there be light”, darkness could not withstand light. It just gave way. On the same day, God divided the light from the darkness. He called the light day and called the darkness night. The first day of creation was the beginning of identity. This is a day of taking action to change situations. It is a day of manifesting as light over and against darkness. It is a day to put light and darkness apart. Day 43 is a day of bringing the light so that men can see. It is a day to see things as they are; and call them by their names

Day 43 is a book-of-John day in the first 49 days of the year, John’s Gospel is the 43rd book of the Bible and is applicable to the 43rd day of the year. It is about giving proof to convince doubters and draw them to faith – whether it is Nathaniel, the woman of Samaria, or Thomas. That is the reason the Word became flesh in this book. It is about the light of the world that keeps darkness away manifesting as man. In John, the light, life, truth, way, Bread, sacrifice, temple, is the man, Jesus. John is an identity-book. Jesus spoke of His identity in this book more than He did in any other gospel account. Day 43 is about knowing who you are and standing on your identity. Day 43 is identity day. Stand as the Word, and as light. Stand as an agent of God and Life. John 1:1-5 says, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. [2] He was in the beginning with God. [3] All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. [4] In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. [5] And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it”. The 43rd is Light’s day of war against darkness. In the 43rd book of the Bible, Jesus is the Lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world. He came to take the burden of sin and death from humanity. He Himself also enjoyed rest in this book. He did not need to speak for Himself. John and others spoke of Him. Jesus never called any disciple in the book of John. Those who followed him in this book were convinced by the testimony of others. Day 43 is a day of believing, believing, and believing. It is a day of finding reason to believe. John was written to convince doubters and unbelievers. On this 43rd day, may the truth stand out clearly; that those who doubt in error may believe.

There are times when God acts to neutralize doubts and unbelief by giving raw signs. He does that especially in 43rd seasons. It happens on a day like this 43rd day of the year. That is why the Gospel according to John is placed #43 in the Bible. The 43rd book of the Bible is about seeing and believing. In that book, the Word became flesh and lived among men. In the 43rd nook of the Bible, Jesus said, “unless you see signs and wonders, you will not believe”. In the same book, Philip asked Jesus to show them the Father. He wanted something more than words and stories. In the book of John, Thomas said he would not believe Jesus rose from the dead without personal verification. He touched him and was convinced. The word ‘see’ (including ‘seen’, ‘sees’, or ‘seeing’) is used in 1457 verses of the Bible; but it is used in 91 verses in John alone. That’s more than 14%. The 43rd book of the Bible was written to convince men that Jesus is the son of God. In Genesis 43, Joseph’s brothers took Benjamin to Egypt for Joseph to see and believe. This is a day of signs. Today, you will see, experience, and believe. Today, may those who doubt you turn to believe you because of what they will see

Day 43 is a 43rd-chapters-of-the-Bible day. The 43rd chapters of the Bible reveal that the 43rd season is a season to receive the word and believe it. In Genesis 43, Jacob needed to believe Judah’s words concerning Benjamin’s safety. Judah took responsibility for Benjamin’s safety and pledged his own life. When they got to Egypt and returned the money found in their sacks, but were told their goods were fully paid for, they just needed to believe what they were told; and stop wondering or worrying. Psalm 43 reveals that the 43rd season is a season of vindication; in which someone else takes over your case while you rest. The psalmist asks himself “Why are you cast down, O my soul? And why are you disquieted within me? Hope in God…” (Psalm 43:5). In Isaiah 43, God is the Redeemer of Israel and takes full responsibility for their restoration. The word of God in this chapter is both heart-warming and heart-calming. In Jeremiah 43, the leaders of the Jews disbelieved Jeremiah and took responsibility for their lives and safety by going to Egypt – against the Word of God. The word of the Lord came against them and told them Egypt had been given to, and would be destroyed by, the Babylonians they were running from. They rejected rest in a season of rest! The 43rd season is a time to trust, and hide, in the word of God. In Ezekiel 43, the Prophet is given a vision of the glory of God as he had it at the beginning of his encounters. He heard God speak to him and give instructions about the temple and sacrifices. The burden of cleansing the altar and the people was laid on the sacrificial animals.

Day 43 is a Judges 1-3 day in the seventh week of the year. Judges has 21 chapters and each day of the seventh week has three chapters of Judges speaking to it. The first three chapters of the seventh book of the Bible speaks to the first day of the seventh week of the year. In Judges 1, Judah fought for her inheritance and took it. In Judges 2, an angel of God confronted the people for disobeying God and they repented. Joshua’s death is recorded here. Following the death of Joshua, Israel sinned often against God. Then, God handed them over to their enemies; but when they cried out to God, He sent Judges to save them. In Judges 3, we begin to read about the earliest judges that guided and fought for Israel: Othniel, Ehud, and Shamgar. They took decisive action to help their nation against her enemies. Day 43 is a day of action – not stories.

Day 43 is a Genesis – Second Samuel day in the seventh 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. 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.! Happy 43rd day!

Day 42: The Mystery of February 11

Nkem Okemiri

July 19, 2020

Welcome to the 42nd day of the year! Day 42 is the 7th and last day of the sixth week of the year. This is the first major ’42nd’ in the year. The other major ’42nd’ is the 42nd week. The Bible patterns for understanding the 42nd day are 1) the 7th day of creation narrative; 2) the 42nd book of the Bible; 3) the 42nd chapters of the Bible; 4) the last six chapters (19-24) of Joshua, the sixth book of the Bible.

Day 42 is a seventh day of creation day. God ended His work on the seventh day and rested. Then, He blessed and hallowed the seventh day because He rested on it. God did not rest on the seventh day because He was tired; but because He ended His work of creation on that day. He rested on the seventh day to institute rest for man on the seventh day and seventh seasons. He rested on the seventh day to declare the seventh season a ‘season of rest for man’; a season of results without labor. To rest on the seventh day or seventh season means to enjoy the finished work by faith. The work is finished but it is not ended until the beneficiaries of the work enter into the finished work. The seventh season is for terminating unrest and struggles in the lives of people.

Day 42 is a 42nd chapters of the Bible day. The 42nd chapters of the Bible reveal that the 42nd season is for the vindication of those who wait on the Lord. It is for the manifestation of the faithfulness of God in answers to prayers and fulfilment of dreams and expectations. In Genesis 42, Joseph began to see his dreams come true. His brothers came to buy food in Egypt and bowed to him because he was in charge. In Job 42, God turned around the captivity of Job, ended his suffering and restored his fortunes with ‘great interests’. In Psalm 42, the psalmist pants after God in expectation of His intervention; and encourages his soul to hope in God. Isaiah 42 is about God’s Servant who would bring justice to the Gentiles and to all the earth. It is a prophecy about the Messiah. Isaiah 42:6-7 says, “I, the LORD, have called You in righteousness, And will hold Your hand; I will keep You and give You as a covenant to the people, As a light to the Gentiles, [7] To open blind eyes, To bring out prisoners from the prison, Those who sit in darkness from the prison house”. The 42nd season is a time to send delivers and messengers of good news to waiters. In Jeremiah 42, the leaders of the remnant of Judah approached Jeremiah to pray to God and inquire from Him concerning direction for them. He sought God on their behalf; and after ten days, told them God wants them to remain in the land and not run to Egypt – for fear of the king of Babylon. God said He would be gracious to them if they remain in the land; but would ensure they are wiped off if they seek refuge in Egypt. The key to the blessing of the 42nd season is waiting on God. Those who follow their own ways never get blessed in the 42nd season. Ezekiel 42 is about the measurement of the temple; and about the chamber of priests in the temple. Day 42 is a ‘priests and temple’ day. The work of priests is to wait on the Lord. The temple is a physical place for waiting on God.

In the Bible, the number 42 relates to trials and testing – whether 42 years, 42 months (three years and six months), 42 weeks, or 42 days. The 42nd is for restoration following a long season of trials. That is the reason the book of Job ends at the 42nd chapter. That is the reason the Elijah-drought lasted three years and six months (42 months). That is also the reason tribulations in the book of revelation are for 42 months or 1260 days (Revelation 11:2-3; 12:6; 13:5). That is the reason the 42nd book of the Bible opens with the an old Levitical priest giving birth (handing over) to a proclaimer of a new day; a waiting virgin giving birth to the New Dawn; and waiting saints – Simeon and Anna – receiving the dawning of a new day. The ministry of Jesus lasted about 42 months. Matthew, the 40th book, written to Jews, is the end of the waiting season for the Jew. Luke, the 42nd book, written to a Gentile, is the end of the waiting season for the entire world. Matthew 1:17 tells us it took 42 generations from Abraham to Jesus. When Elisha’s Training season was over and his new season was just beginning, 42 Children insulted him and were mauled by two female bears. It was a prophetic statement to the emerging Prophet that his ’42 seasons’ of waiting are over. The 42nd season is for the manifestation or fulfillment of prophecies. It marks the end of toiling and struggling.

God is absolutely faithful! His word is true and He NEVER fails – even if you have to wait a long time. Welcome to a new day and season of experiencing and celebrating the faithfulness of God. Josep’s dream began to come to pass in Genesis 42. God turned around the captivity of Job in Job 42. In Luke, the 42nd book of the Bible, He answered the prayer of Zachariah and Elizabeth; He fulfilled Isaiah’s prophecy of virgin-conception in Mary. In the last chapter of the book, Jesus spoke of sending the Promise of the Father. The expected promise is coming! Today, I come to you, in the name of the Lord, as a messenger of the good news. May He also make you a deliverer and a messenger of the good news to someone waiting somewhere.

Day 42 is a book of Luke day in the first 49 days of the year. Luke is the 42nd book of the Bible. The book of Luke opens with fulfillment of prophecies and answers to prayers. The book of Luke is about accomplishing things through prayer and the power of the Holy Spirit – rather than by might or power. The book is about entering into rest by the release of the power of God.

Day 42 is the day ending the sixth week. If the sixth week is for delivering promises, then, it will not end until the promises have been delivered. In the last chapter of the 42nd book of the Bible, Jesus said, “Behold, I send the Promise of My Father upon you; but tarry in the city of Jerusalem until you are endued with power from on high” (Luke 24:49). This is a day of promise and power. Look up, today, with expectations of God’s word coming true in your life.

Day 42 is a Joshua 22-24 day in the sixth week of the year. Joshua 22-24 is the end of the book. The seventh and last section of the sixth book of the Bible is applicable to the seventh and last day of the sixth week of the year. In Joshua 22, the Reubenites, Gadites, and half tribe of Manasseh were released to return to their portions. In Joshua 23, Joshua gave his farewell address. In Joshua 24, he made a covenant with Israel at Shechem. This is a day to bid farewell to waiting, toiling, and struggling,

Day 42 is a Hebrews – Revelation day in the sixth 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. Happy 42nd day.

Day 41: The Mystery of February 10

Nkem Okemiri

July 19, 2020

Welcome to the 41st day of the year! Day 41 is the sixth day of the sixth week of the year. This is the first major ’41st’ in the year. The other major ’41st’ is the 41st week. Day 41 is a core sixth-season day – the sixth day of the sixth week. The Bible patterns for understanding the 41st day are 1) the sixth day of creation narrative; 2) the 41st book of the Bible; 3) the 41st chapters of the Bible; 4) the sixth three chapters of Joshua, the sixth book of the Bible.

Day 41 is a sixth day of creation day. On the sixth day of creation, God made land creatures and man. The animals were in the earth, trapped, as it were; until God commanded that they be brought forth. Genesis 1:24 says, “Then God said, “Let the earth bring forth the living creature according to its kind: cattle and creeping thing and beast of the earth, each according to its kind”; and it was so”. Genesis 2:19 says, “Out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field and every bird of the air…”

On the same sixth day, God brought woman out of man. Genesis 2:21-22 says, “And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place. Then the rib which the LORD God had taken from man He made into a woman, and He brought her to the man”. The 41st day is a sixth season day; and is for opening the door to release people and lives that are trapped. Man and animal was released from the dust of the earth. Woman was released from man. Day 41 is for releasing hidden people and potentials.

Day 41 is a book of Mark day. The Gospel according to Mark is the 41st book of the Bible; and introduces itself as the beginning of the gospel (good news) of Jesus Christ. In this book, Jesus opened the prison door to many who were sick or possessed by demons. Of the 23 verses in which the word ‘unclean spirit’ is used in the. New Testament, eleven of them are in Mark’s gospel account. Of the 75 verses where the word ‘demon’ or ‘demons’ is used, 16 (more than 20%) is in Mark. The 41st season is when captives are set free.

Day 41 is a 41st-chapters-of-the-Bible day. The 41st chapters of the Bible reveal that the 41st season is a season of advancement through productivity; a season to go up by making a difference. In Genesis 41, Joseph rose to the top by his ability to interpret Pharaoh’s dreams that no one else could. He moved from the prison to the palace by the difference He made. In Job 41, God asked Job some “Can you…?” questions. The 41st season is about what you can do. In the 41st psalm, blessing is pronounced on the one who makes a difference in the lives of the poor. Isaiah 41 focuses on the Superiority and Supremacy of the Lord. No one is like Him. The 41st season is a “can you?” season. It is a season of producing results. It is a season to bring forth answers from within. The difference you make will open the door to the next level. In Jeremiah 41, Johanan the son of Kareah rose, and intervened to end the insurrection of those who killed pro-Babylon Governor – Gedaliah. The 41st season is a season of measurement. It is a season when people and things are measured for capacity. The 41st book of the Bible confirms this. In Mark, the 41st book of the Bible, Jesus is the Proof-Producer. He is the Difference-Maker. He made the difference by the anointing. On this 41st day of the year, may the Lord bring you opportunities to release the potential in you.

Day 41 is a Joshua 19-21 day. Joshua 19-21 are the sixth three chapters of the sixth book of the Bible; and are about the inheritance of the sons of Jacob through Rachael. The 19th chapter is about the inheritance of Simeon, Zebulun, Issachar, Naphtali, Asher, Dan, and Joshua. The 20th chapter is about the cities of Refuge. The 21st chapter is about the cities of the Levites. They did not have to fight to receive the cities. At this point, all land had been distributed and possessed. The closing verses of Joshua 21 acknowledges that God is faithful. Joshua 21:43-45 says, “So the LORD gave to Israel all the land of which He had sworn to give to their fathers, and they took possession of it and dwelt in it. [44] The LORD gave them rest all around, according to all that He had sworn to their fathers. And not a man of all their enemies stood against them; the LORD delivered all their enemies into their hand. [45] Not a word failed of any good thing which the LORD had spoken to the house of Israel. All came to pass”.

Day 41 is Ephesians – Philemon day in the sixth 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 is for opening prison doors. Be ready to step out of prison. Step out with your special gift or ability or skill. Align with relationships sent to help you. Receive and believe in the anointing released to favor you. Happy 41st day..

Day 40: The Mystery of February 9

Nkem Okemiri

July 19, 2020

Welcome to the 40th day of the year! Day 40 is the fifth day of the sixth w0eek of the year. This is the first ”40th” in the year. The other major ’40th’ isp the 40th week. The Bible patterns for understanding the 40th day are 1) the fifth day of creation narrative; 2) the 40th book of the Bible; 3) the 40th chapters of the Bible; 4) the fifth three chapters (13-15) of Joshua, the sixth book of the Bible.

Day 40 is a fifth day of creation day. On the fifth day of creation, God created birds of the air and sea creatures, flesh and blood, to begin to express full life on earth – with ability to move, see, hear, taste, smell, feel, generate sounds, and reproduce. They were called living creatures because, I believe, they were made to express life. Day 40 is a day of life, revival, and restoration. It is for the release of new life.

Day 40 is a book of Matthew day. Matthew is the 40th book of the Bible; and opens with with a miraculous virgin conception. It is the beginning of the New Testament; and of the gospel of Jesus Christ. In this book, Emmanuel is born; and things happened to fulfill what God had said or what is written in the Law and Prophets. It is about Jesus giving life to men both by His words and by demonstrations of the power of the kingdom of God. Jesus preached, taught, and demonstrated the kingdom of God in the gospel account written by Matthew.

Day 40 is a Joshua 16-18 day. Joshua 16-18 are the fifth division chapters of the sixth book of the Bible; and are about the inheritance of the sons of Jacob through Rachael. Three tribes (Ephraim, Half-tribe of Manasseh, and. Benjamin) received their inheritance in this chapter. The sixth day is the day of grace. Jacob placed special blessings on Rachel’s children – Joseph and Benjamin – though they came last. They enjoyed Jacob’s Riches At Rachel’s Expense. In Joshua 16, Ephraim and Western Manasseh received their inheritance. In Joshua 17, the sons of Joseph asked for more land and were given the mountains to subdue. The daughters of Zelophehad were also given their father’s inheritance. By Joshua 18, seven tribes were yet to receive their inheritance. Benjamin received her inheritance here. Joseph received double inheritance. That was grace. The 40th day is the day of grace.

Day 40 is a 40th-chapters-of-the-Bible day. The 40th chapters of the Bible reveal that the 40th season is a new beginning. In Genesis 40, a new chapter opened for Joseph. The dreamer became an interpreter of dreams for God. The dreams came to pass for the Chief Butler and the Chief Baker as Joseph said. In Exodus 40, Moses set up the Tabernacle and arranged it for God to take settlement among His people. Eight times, it is written that Moses did things as the Lord commanded. After setting up the tabernacle as the Lord commanded, the glory of the Lord had had the tabernacle in a cloud. In Job 40, the servant of God replied he cannot answer God. He laid his hand over his mouth. He experienced God. Psalm 40 is mainly a testimony of God’s deliverance. The psalmist said, “I waited patiently for the LORD; And He inclined to me, And heard my cry. [2] He also brought me up out of a horrible pit, Out of the miry clay, And set my feet upon a rock, And established my steps. [3] He has put a new song in my mouth- Praise to our God; Many will see it and fear, And will trust in the LORD”. (Psalm 40:1-3). Isaiah 40 is an assurance of God’s visitation upon Zion. Isaiah 40:1-2 says, “Comfort, yes, comfort My people!” Says your God. [2] “Speak comfort to Jerusalem, and cry out to her, That her warfare is ended, That her iniquity is pardoned; For she has received from the LORD’s hand Double for all her sins.” Jeremiah 40 is like a New Testament for the Prophet. The word he spoke had come to pass. He is vindicated. He is favored by the Babylonians to live wherever he wants – in Babylon or Judah. Ezekiel 40 is the beginning of the Prophet’s vision of a new city and a new temple.

The fortieth season is the beginning of good news and the end of the waiting season. This is the mystery of Moses, or Jesus, fasting 40 days. That is the mystery of Israel wandering 40 years in the wilderness before entering the Promised Land. Moses life is divided into three phases of forty years each. Saul, David, and Solomon, ruled , each, 40 years. The 40th is for the manifestation of God in the affairs of men.

Day 40 is a Matthew – Galatians day in the 6th 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 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.

Thank you, Father, for this Book-of-Matthew day. Thank you for this day of the fulfillment of your Word. In the name of Jesus, I declare that this is a day of good news; and a day of miraculous signs and wonders for you. Happy 40th day!

Day 39: The Mystery of February 8

Nkem Okemiri

July 19, 2020

Welcome to the 39th day of the year! Day 39 is the 4th day of the sixth week of the year. This is the first major ’39th’ in the year. The other major ’39th’ is the 39th week. The Bible patterns for understanding the 39th day are 1) the fourth day of creation narrative; 2) the 39th book of the Bible; 3) the 39th chapters of the Bible; 4) the fourth three chapters (10-12) of Joshua, the sixth book of the Bible.

Day 39 is a fourth day of creation day. On the fourth day of creation, God made the luminaries to give light, rule over the night and the day, divide the light from the darkness: and be for signs and for seasons. The luminaries are guiding lights but are also made to support on life on earth. Having guiding lights, heavenly light, is the key to success in the 39th season. The luminaries God made on the fourth day have three classes: the sun, the moon, and the stars. Applied spiritually, they represent the Word of God, the Holy Spirit, and wise men and women (parents, elders, teachers, and mentors). These are the luminaries of God on earth. You need them in the 39th season.

Day 39 is a book of Malachi day. Malachi is the 39th book of the Bible and the last book of the Old Testament. The book is about the Lord’s controversies with His people. He raised charges against His people, through His prophet, but they denied it. Six times in the book, the people countered God’s word (Malachi 1:2, 6, 7; 2:17; 3:7, 8). The people had become so blind that they could no longer see what the Lord was seeing and saying about them. Would it not have been better for the people to keep mute instead of arguing with the Lord? In the 39th season, it is better to keep mute and watch instead of opening your mouth to speak rubbish and sin with your tongue (Psalm 39:1).

Day 39 is a 39th-chapters-of-the-Bible day. The 39th chapters of the Bible reveal that the 39th season is a border-season. It is the season to cross over to the other side. It is both an end and a new beginning. Joseph’s time in Portiphar’s house began and ended in Genesis 39. He parted with his garment of slavery in this chapter. He never returned to that house. The work on the tabernacle, under Bezaleel, ended in Exodus 39 with the preparation of the garment of the priests. Job 39 marked the end of God’s first round of questions for Job. The four-chapter story of Hezekiah ended in Isaiah 39. In Jeremiah 39, Jerusalem fell to the Babylonians according to God’s word; and Jeremiah was freed and favored by the Babylonians. The forces of Gog were defeated and destroyed; and their carcasses given to the birds of the air in Ezekiel 39. In the same chapter, the Prophet saw Israel restored to her land.

Day 39 is a Joshua 13-15 day. The fourth division chapters of the sixth book of the Bible are applicable to the fifth day of the sixth week of the year. The distribution of the land began in these chapters.. It is the beginning of the ‘New Testament’ side of Joshua’s assignment in the sixth book of the Bible. In Joshua 13, God told Joshua there are still more lands to be conquered. He mapped out the territories awaiting conquest and possession. In Joshua 14, Caleb received his inheritance which Moses promised him. He conquered his territory and possessed it. Joshua 15 is about the inheritance of the tribe of Judah, the fourth son of Jacob.

Day 39 is Obadiah – Malachi day in the sixth 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.

This 39th day of the year marks the end of a phase, and the beginning of a new story, in your life, family, and nation. Believe and declare it! Malachi, the 39th book of the Bible, is the last book of the Old Testament. The stripes of Jesus ended with the 39th. 1939 was when the Second World War began. It was a book of Malachi year in the 20th century. Whatever you see on this 39th day of the year, declare that ‘the Old Testament’ of the first 49 days of the year has ended; and a New Testament is beginning. In the name of Jesus, declare, today, that your story has changed. The old story has ended. A new day is beginning for you. 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. Happy 39th day.
