Day 38: The Mystery of February 7

July 19, 2020

Welcome to the 38th day of the year! Day 38 is the 3rd day of the sixth week of the year. This is the first major ’38th’ in the year. The other major ’38th’ is the 38th week. The Bible patterns for understanding the 38th day are 1) the third day of creation narrative; 2) the 38th book of the Bible; 3) the 38th chapters of the Bible; 4) the third three chapters (7-9) of Joshua, the sixth book of the Bible..

Day 38 is a third-day-of-creation day. It is a third-season day. On the third day of creation, God manifested the hidden earth after He had moved the waters to one place. He made the earth an indispensable platform for the sustenance of flesh-life. On the third day, He commanded the dry ground to bring forth vegetation. The 38th season is when the old and dysfunctional give way for the ‘hidden new’ to manifest.

Day 38 is a book Zechariah day. Zechariah is the 38th book of the Bible. This book is about the restoration of Judah and Jerusalem. It opens with God’s appeal to His people to return to Him so He could return to them. Then progressed with God’s promises of War against the destroyers and oppressors of Judah and Jerusalem. It concludes with God’s promise of making Jerusalem the global center of worship; and for which nations that do not recognize her would be plagued and destroyed.

Day 38 is a 38th-chapters-of-the-Bible day. The 38th chapters of the Bible reveal that the 38th season is a season of making way for the ‘weak things’ that are down and hidden. In this season, God grants breakthrough to downtrodden things buried and covered. In Genesis 38, God favored Tamar with twins for Judah. The first two men for whom she would have bore children, died for wickedness. In Exodus 38, Bezalel made the altar of burnt offering, the bronze laver, and materials for the tabernacle. It is from altar in the tabernacle that breakthroughs come. In Job 38, God took over from Job and his friends and began a round of questions that Job could not answer. That was the first time Job beard God’s voice in the book. Psalm 38 is the cry of the chastened and weak to God. Often, agonizing prayers must precede breakthroughs. In Isaiah 38, God extended Hezekiah’s life by 15 years. In Jeremiah 38, the prophet was lifted from the dungeon that he may not die. In the 38th season, God intervenes to stop the hand of death. The 38th season is a pro-life season. Ezekiel 38 is God’s word against Gog and Magog – for being enemies of Israel. In the 38th season, God rises against the killer.

Day 38 is a Joshua 9-12 day in the sixth week of the year. The third four chapters of Joshua are applicable to the third day of the sixth week. Joshua and Israel fought some decisive battles in this section of the book. In Joshua 9, the Gibeonites deceived Israel and made a covenant with God’s people for fear of being destroyed. Eventually their lies were uncovered and they were made servants in Israel. In Joshua 10, the sun and moon, which God created on the fourth day, and the heavens, helped Joshua and Israel. In Joshua 11, Joshua fought and defeated Jabin, king of Hazor, and his multitude of allies. Joshua 12 is a listing of the 31 kings which Moses and Joshua conquered. Day 38 is a day of ‘the last battle’ in the sixth week.

Day 38 is Ecclesiastes – Amos Day in the sixth 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. Happy 38th day!

PRAYER

On this day of correction and mercy, deliver me, by your mercy, from errors that would harm my life and destiny. Overrule my mistakes by your wisdom and power. Step in for me, by your mercy, and turn things around. Change the things written against me and show me favor. Bring correction into my life and circumstances, by the power of your love.

Day 37: The Mystery of February 6

Nkem Okemiri

July 19, 2020

Welcome to the 37th day of the year! Day 37 is the second day of the sixth week of the year. This is the first major ’37th’ in the year. The other major ’37th’ is the 37th week. The Bible patterns for understanding the 37th day are 1) the second day of creation narrative; 2) the 37th book of the Bible; 3) the 37th chapters of the Bible; 4) the second three chapters of Joshua, the sixth book of the Bible. Day 37 is also the sixth day of the second month. So, the things that pertain to the sixth, in the Bible, are also applicable to this day.

Day 37 is a second-day-of-creation day. On the second day of creation, God made the firmament and dismantled the water-obstacle that would have made life and existence impossible. We are on earth today because God created the firmament on the second day. This is a day of dismantling obstacles to life, purpose, and destiny. It is a day to stop things that want to stop you – death, disease, demons; and make room for your continued journey to destiny.

Day 37 is a book of Haggai day in the first 49 days of the year.. In the two-chapter book of Haggai, the returnees stopped rebuilding the temple by the decree of the king (see Ezra 4: 23-24). The people suffered greatly for stopping the work. Haggai 1:6-11 says, “You have sown much, and bring in little; You eat, but do not have enough; You drink, but you are not filled with drink; You clothe yourselves, but no one is warm; And he who earns wages, Earns wages to put into a bag with holes.” [7] Thus says the LORD of hosts: “Consider your ways! [8] Go up to the mountains and bring wood and build the temple, that I may take pleasure in it and be glorified,” says the LORD. [9] “You looked for much, but indeed it came to little; and when you brought it home, I blew it away. Why?” says the LORD of hosts. “Because of My house that is in ruins, while every one of you runs to his own house. [10] Therefore the heavens above you withhold the dew, and the earth withholds its fruit. [11] For I called for a drought on the land and the mountains, on the grain and the new wine and the oil, on whatever the ground brings forth, on men and livestock, and on all the labor of your hands.”

The book of Haggai is a second season book; and is about what happened in the second year of King Darius. The work of the temple began in the first year of King Cyrus: was stopped in the first year of King Ahueserus (Artexerxes), and was restarted in the second year of Darius. The goal of the prophet in the book was to preach the people ‘back to work’. The temple of God is the House of Prayer. The 37th season is a ‘house of prayer’ season. You are the temple of God. Day 37 is your day to change things by the force of prayer and by the power of God. The Lord works to make you unstoppable in the 37th season. In the 37th book of the Bible, He removed the obstacle to rebuilding the temple. Today, as you call upon God from His temple in you, God will take away the obstacle on your way.

Day 37 is a Joshua 5-8 day in the sixth week. It is the second day of the sixth week as Joshua 5-8 is the second four chapters of the sixth book of the Bible. In Joshua 5, the generation that had not been circumcised were circumcised to take away the reproach of Egypt and the hindrance to the covenant (Genesis 17:9-14). In Joshua 6, the Jericho-obstacle was removed. In Joshua 7, Israel was humiliated by Ai because of the sin of Achan. The sin of Achan was a secret sin that no one else knew about. They cast lots and it fell on Achan. God revealed the hidden sinner by casting lots. The 37th season is when things that are down and hidden are brought up. It is season of revelations. In Joshua 8, Israel rose from defeat and defeated the people of Ai and burnt their city. The conquered became the conqueror. Day 37 is for dismantling obstacles. Three obstacles were removed in Joshua 5-8: uncircumcision, Jericho wall (through unbelief), and the sin of Achan.

Day 37 is a 37th-chapters-of-the-Bible day. The 37th chapters of the Bible bear witness that the 37th season is a season of divine intervention. God saved Joseph from death in Genesis 37. In Job 37, Elihu ended his speech; and it is about the intervening power of God. Psalm 37 is a call to trust in the Lord who cuts off the wicked and establishes the righteous. Psalm 37:9-10,17,20,22,35-36,38 says, “For evildoers shall be cut off; But those who wait on the LORD, They shall inherit the earth. [10] For yet a little while and the wicked shall be no more; Indeed, you will look carefully for his place, But it shall be no more. [17] For the arms of the wicked shall be broken, But the LORD upholds the righteous. [20] But the wicked shall perish; And the enemies of the LORD, Like the splendor of the meadows, shall vanish. Into smoke they shall vanish away. [22] For those blessed by Him shall inherit the earth, But those cursed by Him shall be cut off. [35] I have seen the wicked in great power, And spreading himself like a native green tree. [36] Yet he passed away, and behold, he was no more; Indeed I sought him, but he could not be found. [38] But the transgressors shall be destroyed together; The future of the wicked shall be cut off”. In Isaiah 37, God delivered Hezekiah and Judah from the hands of Sennacherib. In Jeremiah 37, the king saved Jeremiah from death by removing him from the dungeon to the court of the prison. In Ezekiel 37, in the Prophet’s vision, dry bones of slain men came back to life and became a mighty army – as Ezekiel prophesied.

Day 37 is a First Kings – to – Proverbs Day in the sixth 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! The 37th season is for dismantling obstacles, stopping the hands of death, and reversing evil plans. The Lord will do the same for you today. Happy 37th day!

🙏PRAYER:

On this day of intervention, O Father, overthrow and reverse the evil plan of the wicked against my life. Deliver me from all forms of death and destruction. Revive me – spirit, soul, and body. Revive your work in my life. Let the things the enemy had caused to cease, begin again with full strength. Amen!

O Lord, help me to gather double provisions on this sixth day as instituted in Exodus 16 when Israel gathered twice (of manna) as much as they did daily. Bless me with double provisions today.

Day 36: The Mystery of February 5

Nkem Okemiri

July 19, 2020

Welcome to the 36th day of the year! Day 36 is the first day of the sixth week of the year. This is the first major ’36th’ in the year. The other major ’36th’ is the 36th week. The Bible patterns for understanding the 36th day are 1) the first day of creation narrative; 2) the 36th book of the Bible; 3) the 36th chapters of the Bible; 4) the first three chapters of Joshua, the sixth book of the Bible.

Day 36 is a first-day-of-creation day. On the first day of creation, God did four things:

1. God’s voice sounded and He began to change the state of the void and formless existence. Before this time, the earth was without form and void, darkness was over the face of the deep, and the Spirit of God hovered over the surface of the waters. 2. He addressed the darkness that covered the face of the waters. by calling light into existence; to repel darkness. 3. God divided the light from the darkness. 4. Day and night began. God called the day Light and called the darkness Night. Day 36 is a triumphant day of battle against sixth-season darkness. It is a day to battle the rulers of the darkness of this world (Ephesians 6).

Day 36 is a book of Zephaniah day in a book of Joshua week. Zephaniah is the 36th book of the year. It is a book of warning concerning the judgment of the Day of the Lord. Zephaniah 1:2-10 says, “I will utterly consume everything from the face of the land,” Says the LORD; [3] “I will consume man and beast; I will consume the birds of the heavens, The fish of the sea, And the stumbling blocks along with the wicked. I will cut off man from the face of the land,” Says the LORD. [4] “I will stretch out My hand against Judah, And against all the inhabitants of Jerusalem. I will cut off every trace of Baal from this place, The names of the idolatrous priests with the pagan priests- [5] Those who worship the host of heaven on the housetops; Those who worship and swear oaths by the LORD, But who also swear by Milcom; [6] Those who have turned back from following the LORD, And have not sought the LORD, nor inquired of Him.” [7] Be silent in the presence of the Lord GOD; For the day of the LORD is at hand, For the LORD has prepared a sacrifice; He has invited His guests. [8] “And it shall be, In the day of the LORD’s sacrifice, That I will punish the princes and the king’s children, And all such as are clothed with foreign apparel. [9] In the same day I will punish All those who leap over the threshold, Who fill their masters’ houses with violence and deceit. [10] “And there shall be on that day,” says the LORD, “The sound of a mournful cry from the Fish Gate, A wailing from the Second Quarter, And a loud crashing from the hills”. The book of Zephaniah informs us that the 36th season is the Day of the Lord for warfare against darkness.

Day 36 is a Joshua 1-4 day. In Joshua 1, God prepared Joshua to lead Israel into the Promised Land; and instructed him to prepare Israel to cross the Jordan. In Joshua 2, he sent spies to view Jericho. The spies met Rahab, received help from her, and made a covenant with her to save her and her family. In Joshua 3, Israel crossed the Jordan. In Joshua 4, Israel set up memorial stones after crossing the Jordan. The priests who bore the ark stood in the middle until all Israel had crossed. They were the last to come up out of Jordan. The presence of the priests bearing the ark kept the river from overflowing. They stopped the destructive force of water. From the first four chapters of Joshua, we can see that the 36th day is a day of preparation for the work of the week. The sixth week is a week of warfare to judge ungodliness and reward righteousness.

Day 36 is a 36th-chapters-of-the-Bible day. Genesis 36 expresses the prevalence of darkness. The chapter is given to the house of Esau (Edom) and Mount Seir and their Chiefs or dukes. Esau had five children from three women. Edom and Mount Seir became enemies of Israel and represent rebellion against God. Edom, Mount Seir, and Amalek, represent darkness. The story of Esau in Genesis 36 is an intrusion of darkness into Jacob’s story-line. Jacob’s story will resume in Genesis 37 with the emergence of a new generation in Joseph and his brothers. In Exodus 36, Bezalel and the other artisans begin work on the tabernacle. The people gave more than enough for the work of the tabernacle. The 36th season is a season of abundance through love for God. The house of God is priority in the 36th season. It is the abode of Light. God is Light. The key to triumph in the 36th season is to become, or to construct, the dwelling place of Light. In Numbers 36, the end of the book, darkness was going to erode the inheritance of Zelophehad if his five daughters who had received his inheritance marry outside the tribe of their father’s house. The elders approached Moses concerning the matter of losing their inheritance to other tribes. Moses received a word from the Lord concerning them. They are to marry within the family of their father. They eventually married their cousins – the sons of their father’s brothers. That way, their father’s inheritance stayed within the family. This chapter is also about inheritance not changing hands from tribe to tribe. The 36th season is a time to receive wisdom (light) from God for complex problems. Second Chronicles 36, the last chapter of the book, God’s people lost their inheritance to the Babylonians through captivity. Darkness overtook the land because their rejection of, and rebellion against, the Light. The chapter ended with the beginning of the next book, Ezra. Light rose for the people in darkness when Cyrus, King of Persia, gave a written proclamation for Jews to return to rebuild the temple at Jerusalem. The 36th season is an end and a new beginning. In Job 36, Elihu speaks on God’s behalf proclaiming His integrity, goodness, justice, and sovereignty, and majesty. He gives justice to both the wicked and the righteous. He gives correction to those who err and are in trouble. If, they listen, they find favor. If they reject correction, they perish. Elihu was bringing light into Job’s situation. Psalm 36 is an oracle concerning the transgression of the wicked; about the goodness and mercy of God; and a prayer for help against the proud and the wicked. In Isaiah 36, Sennacherib came against the fortified cites of Judah and took them. He sent horrifying and intimidating messages to Hezekiah and Judah to harass God’s people. Darkness rises against people in the 36th season threatening their inheritance. In Jeremiah 36, the prophet’s scroll is read, by Baruch, in the temple and eventually in the hearing of the king. The words in the scroll was light to keep the people from darkness. They rejected the light. The king even burned the scroll against all restraints. Jeremiah cursed the king with childlessness and severe judgment. He would not have a son (heir) to sit on the throne of David; and his dead body would not be buried. That means his political inheritance is taken from him. Jeremiah told Baruch to rewrite the words on a new scroll. More words were even added. Darkness cannot prevail against the word of God. Men may rise up against the word of the Lord in the 36th season but the counsel of God will stand. In Ezekiel 36, God speaks blessings passionately to Israel against the hurts she had suffered from the nations. Light came through God’s Word to dispel the darkness covering the land by promises of restoration.

Day 36 is a Genesis – Second Samuel day in the 6th week of the year. 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.! Today, may light triumph over darkness in your life. Happy 36th day!

On this day in 2020 the US Senate voted on two impeachment charges to acquit Donald Trump. That was the crossing of the Jordan for the 45th President of the United States. Trump Acquitted!

Day 35: The Mystery of February 4

Nkem Okemiri

July 19, 2020

Welcome to the 35th day of the year. Day 35 is the seventh and last day of the fifth week of the year. This is the first major ’35th’ in the year. The other major ’35th’ is the 35th week. The Bible patterns for understanding the 35th day are 1) the sixth day of creation narrative; 2) the 35th book of the Bible; 3) the 35th chapters of the Bible; 4) the 7th five chapters of Deuteronomy, the fifth book of the Bible.

Day 35 is a seventh-day-of-creation day. The seventh day of creation was a no-work day. God ended His work and rested on that day. He blessed and sanctified the day because He rested in it. How can the 35th day become a day of rest? It is by faith that we enter into rest. To believe is to cease from trying to accomplish by works or effort. The 35th day is a day to enter into rest from toil and trouble – by faith.

Day 35 is a Deuteronomy 31-34 day. This section of Deuteronomy is about the last days of Moses. From the 31st chapter, Moses began to give his last speeches; and went on to inaugurate Joshua as his successor. In the 32nd chapter, he wrote and placed a copy of the Law in the ark of covenant; and was instructed to go up to Mount Nebo, view the Promised Land and die there. In the 33rd chapter, he gave final blessing to Israel by tribe. In the 34th chapter, Moses died at the age of 120. The recording of the death of Moses in this section of the book signified the end of the old; and the beginning of the new.

Day 35 is a book of Habakkuk day. Habakkuk is the 35th book of the Bible. In this book, the prophet cried out to God against violence, oppression, and deceit in his nation. The Lord promised to send swift judgment through a wicked and ungodly nation. He cried to God to reconsider His stand. It was too late. He only had to trust God with the future. In the 35th season, the just shall live by faith.

Day 35 is a 35th-chapters-of-the-Bible day. The 35th chapters also confirm that the 35th season is a end-season. In Genesis 35, God told Jacob to return to Bethel and he told his family members to give up their idols. He announced again the change of his name from Jacob to Israel. Three people died there: Deborah, Rachael, and Isaac. Benjamin was born there as Jacob’s 12th and last son. Reuben defiled his father’s bed there also. In this chapter, idol worship ended. Lives ended. Child-bearing ended.Reuben’s firstborn status ended. In Exodus 35, Moses reminded Israel what God said about keeping the Sabbath. The 35th season is a Sabbath. Moses also took a free will offering from Israel for the construction of the tabernacle. He called Bezalel and Aholiab, by the word of the Lord, to be in charge of the work. In Genesis 35, God spoke about Bethel (the House of God). In Exodus 35, God spoke about Sabbath and Tabernacle. The 35th season is for giving attention to the Tabernacle of God – not for destroying it. In Numbers 35, God gave commandment concerning the cities of the Levites and the six cities of refuge. The Levites are those serving in the Tabernacle. The 35th season is a time to seek the good of the custodians of faith. God also spoke about the cities to keep the land from bloodshed. The 35th season is a season to watch against vengeful bloodshed. In the 35th seven years of America God will a safe land His Levites – those who bear the burden of the House of God. He is also appointing cities of refuge – where the avenger of blood is not permitted to kill. The cities of refuge are part of the land allotted to the Levites. The six cities of refuge (to be appointed three on each side of Jordan) are 1. The Blood of the Lamb (before the Jordan) – repentance, holiness, confession, 2. The name of the Lord (across the Jordan) – prayer, the word, the Spirit.

In First Chronicles 35, Josiah led Israel to keep a landmark Passover following his reforms. That was the last revival before captivity. The 35th season is a time for revival of faith. The Revivalists must also understand their boundaries. Josiah died in a battle he was not supposed to fight. He interfered in a battle between a God-ordained battle between Egypt and Carchemish. Whereas we want revival, we must not stand in the way of God’s judgment. We must not try to save what Heaven wants to destroy. In Job 35, Elihu posited that the goodness or wickedness of men affects men and not God. He also teaches that God’s silence does not mean He does not care about what is happening. When judgment is delayed, both the wicked and the righteous misinterpret God. Elihu was neither for Job nor his friends. He stood for God. The 35th season is a time to speak for God instead of taking sides with camps. In Psalms 35, the psalmist cried to God for vengeance, vindication, and deliverance. It is a prayer calling the Lord to battle. This chapter expresses the heart of God’s remnant in a season of oppression, when evil men thrive. Psalm 35 sounds like what Habakkuk must have prayed in his days. The 35th fifth season is a time to cry out to God for intervention. In Isaiah 35, the prophet spoke of a glorious return to Zion. The 35th season is the time for the ransomed of the Lord to return to Zion. It is a time to witness the glory of the Lord, the excellency of our God, and the vengeance or recompense of God. Verses 5-9 holds a great promise. This chapter is an advance promise restoration. In Jeremiah 35, the Rechabites demonstrated loyalty to their father, Jonadab , the son of Rechab, by refusing to drink wine. God sent Jeremiah to call them into the temple and give them wine. They did not yield to the temptation. God compared Israel to them. He blessed them but determined He would judge Judah for disregarding His word. The 35th season is a time to refuse compromise. Is America still committed to the vales the Founding Fathers wanted passed on from generation to generation. In Ezekiel 35, the prophet spoke about the desolation of Mount Seir because of their ancient hatred for Israel. The 35th season is for the destruction of the enemies of God’s people. Both live in America. The greatest enemies of America are Americans who have turned from God and are undermining the faith of those who still trust in God. The Lord has vowed to destroy those who despise the God of True Americans.

Day 35 is a Hebrews – Revelation day in the 5th 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. Believe God, today, that the end has come for the trouble, for the old, and for struggles, in your life. Happy 35th day of the year.

Day 34: The Mystery of February 3

Nkem Okemiri

July 19, 2020

Welcome to the 34th day of the year. Day 34 is also the sixth day of the fifth week of the year. This is the first major ’34th’ in the year. The other major ’34th’ is the 33rd week. The Bible patterns for understanding the 34th day are 1) the sixth day of creation narrative; 2) the 34th book of the Bible; 3) the 34th chapters of the Bible; 4) the 6th five chapters of Deuteronomy, the fifth book of the Bible.

Day 34 is a sixth season day of creation day. What happened on the sixth day of creation? On that day, God did, at least, eight things:

1. He created land animals from the earth.

2. He formed man’s body from the ground, breathed into man and man became a living soul. He made man in His image and after His likeness.

3. He gave man the privilege of naming all the animals. God named the creatures of the first 3 days. But man named every other thing God created on the sixth day – including Woman.

4. He formed woman from man and joined them to become husband and wife. God instituted marriage on the sixth day.

5. He blessed man with fruitfulness and multiplication – to fill the earth and subdue it.

6. He gave man authority to rule and have dominion over all moving creatures on earth, on air, and in the sea.

7. He gave vegetation-food to man. He instructed man concerning provisions.

8. He evaluated everything He had done and saw that they were indeed very good.

The sixth season is a ‘use what you have’ season. It is a season to exercise rule and dominion; and execute judgment against rebellion. It is a season of love and relationships. It is a season of work. It is a season of multiplication and increase. It is a season of connecting food to the eater. It is a season to reflect the image and likeness of the Creator. It is season to correct and perfect things that are not good or in order. It is general evaluation season – leading to approval or rejection, regrets or rejoicing, blessing or cursing, deliverance, or destruction, multiplication or decimation.

This is a Deuteronomy 26-30 day. Deuteronomy 26-30 is the sixth five chapters of the book. The 26th chapter is about offerings of first-fruits and tithes. The 27th chapter is about inscribing the Law on the Altar of Whole Stones; and about pronouncement of blessings and curses. The word should be inscribed on our hearts. The 28th chapter is about blessings for obedience and curses for disobedience. The 29th chapter is a review of divine mercy and the renewal of Covenant before the Lord in the land of Moab; and the curses that would follow breaking that covenant. The 30th chapter is about the blessings of returning to God. From the sixth five chapters of Deuteronomy, it is clear that the 34th season is a season of blessings or curses. Blessings for the obedient and curses for the rebellious. It is a season to reap the fruit of labors. The sixth season is for uncompromising allegiance to the Lord and unreserved commitment to His word.

Day 34 is a book of Nahum day. Nahum is the 34th book of the Bible. The book of Nahum is God’s pronouncement of judgement against Nineveh. Nahum 1:2-6,12-14 says, “God is jealous, and the LORD avenges; The LORD avenges and is furious. The LORD will take vengeance on His adversaries, And He reserves wrath for His enemies; The LORD is slow to anger and great in power, And will not at all acquit the wicked. The LORD has His way In the whirlwind and in the storm, And the clouds are the dust of His feet. He rebukes the sea and makes it dry, And dries up all the rivers. Bashan and Carmel wither, And the flower of Lebanon wilts. The mountains quake before Him, The hills melt, And the earth heaves at His presence, Yes, the world and all who dwell in it. Who can stand before His indignation? And who can endure the fierceness of His anger? His fury is poured out like fire, And the rocks are thrown down by Him. Nahum 1:12-14 says, Thus says the LORD: “Though they are safe, and likewise many, Yet in this manner they will be cut down When he passes through. Though I have afflicted you, I will afflict you no more; [For now I will break off his yoke from you, And burst your bonds apart.” The LORD has given a command concerning you: “Your name shall be perpetuated no longer. Out of the house of your gods I will cut off the carved image and the molded image. I will dig your grave, For you are vile.”

Week 34 is a 34th chapters of the Bible week. In Genesis 34, Simeon and Levi, sons of Jacob took vengeance against the Shechemites for the rape of their sister, Dinah. God sets up the ungodly for destruction in the 34th season. However, it all started with Dinah undertaking an ill-advised tour to see the daughters of the land. Her steps were not guided by wisdom. In Exodus 34, God introduced Himself to Moses as One who though merciful and gracious will by no means clear the guilty. Exodus 34:5-7 says, “Now the LORD descended in the cloud and stood with him there, and proclaimed the name of the LORD. [6] And the LORD passed before him and proclaimed, “The LORD, the LORD God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abounding in goodness and truth, [7] keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, by no means clearing the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children and the children’s children to the third and the fourth generation.” …Numbers 34 is about the divisions and boundaries of inheritance in promised land which Israel shall dispossess the Canaanites of. God takes away the inheritance of the ungodly in the 34th season. In Deuteronomy 34, Moses died and was buried, by God, in the land of Moab. In Second Chronicles 34, Josiah, as God’s agent, took vengeance against idolatry in Israel, in a swift reformation – to escape the visitation of divine wrath. 2 Chronicles 34:3-5 says, “For in the eighth year of his reign, while he was still young, he began to seek the God of his father David; and in the twelfth year he began to purge Judah and Jerusalem of the high places, the wooden images, the carved images, and the molded images. [4] They broke down the altars of the Baals in his presence, and the incense altars which were above them he cut down; and the wooden images, the carved images, and the molded images he broke in pieces, and made dust of them and scattered it on the graves of those who had sacrificed to them. [5] He also burned the bones of the priests on their altars, and cleansed Judah and Jerusalem”. 2 Chronicles 34:33 says, “Thus Josiah removed all the abominations from all the country that belonged to the children of Israel, and made all who were present in Israel diligently serve the LORD their God. All his days they did not depart from following the LORD God of their fathers”.

The 34th season is a time to watch out against heavenly reactions to ungodliness. 2 Chronicles 34:24-25 says, “Thus says the LORD: ‘Behold, I will bring calamity on this place and on its inhabitants, all the curses that are written in the book which they have read before the king of Judah, [25] because they have forsaken Me and burned incense to other gods, that they might provoke Me to anger with all the works of their hands. Therefore My wrath will be poured out on this place, and not be quenched.'” Job 34 reveals that God “repays man according to his work”. Job 34:10-11 says, “Therefore listen to me, you men of understanding: Far be it from God to do wickedness, And from the Almighty to commit iniquity. [11] For He repays man according to his work, And makes man to find a reward according to his way”. Job 34:24-28 says, “He breaks in pieces mighty men without inquiry, And sets others in their place. [25] Therefore He knows their works; He overthrows them in the night, And they are crushed. [26] He strikes them as wicked men In the open sight of others, [27] Because they turned back from Him, And would not consider any of His ways, [28] So that they caused the cry of the poor to come to Him; For He hears the cry of the afflicted”

Psalms 34 says, “The eyes of the LORD are on the righteous, And His ears are open to their cry. [16] The face of the LORD is against those who do evil, To cut off the remembrance of them from the earth. [17] The righteous cry out, and the LORD hears, And delivers them out of all their troubles. [18] The LORD is near to those who have a broken heart, And saves such as have a contrite spirit. [19] Many are the afflictions of the righteous, But the LORD delivers him out of them all. [20] He guards all his bones; Not one of them is broken. [21] Evil shall slay the wicked, And those who hate the righteous shall be condemned. [22] The LORD redeems the soul of His servants, And none of those who trust in Him shall be condemned” (Psalm 34:15-22).

Isaiah 34 is a proclamation of judgment against all nations; especially Edom. Isaiah 34:2-15 says, “For the indignation of the LORD is against all nations, And His fury against all their armies; He has utterly destroyed them, He has given them over to the slaughter. [3] Also their slain shall be thrown out; Their stench shall rise from their corpses, And the mountains shall be melted with their blood. [4] All the host of heaven shall be dissolved, And the heavens shall be rolled up like a scroll; All their host shall fall down As the leaf falls from the vine, And as fruit falling from a fig tree. [5] “For My sword shall be bathed in heaven; Indeed it shall come down on Edom, And on the people of My curse, for judgment. [6] The sword of the LORD is filled with blood, It is made overflowing with fatness, With the blood of lambs and goats, With the fat of the kidneys of rams. For the LORD has a sacrifice in Bozrah, And a great slaughter in the land of Edom. [7] The wild oxen shall come down with them, And the young bulls with the mighty bulls; Their land shall be soaked with blood, And their dust saturated with fatness.” [8] For it is the day of the LORD’s vengeance, The year of recompense for the cause of Zion. [9] Its streams shall be turned into pitch, And its dust into brimstone; Its land shall become burning pitch. [10] It shall not be quenched night or day; Its smoke shall ascend forever. From generation to generation it shall lie waste; No one shall pass through it forever and ever. [11] But the pelican and the porcupine shall possess it, Also the owl and the raven shall dwell in it. And He shall stretch out over it The line of confusion and the stones of emptiness. [12] They shall call its nobles to the kingdom, But none shall be there, and all its princes shall be nothing. [13] And thorns shall come up in its palaces, Nettles and brambles in its fortresses; It shall be a habitation of jackals, A courtyard for ostriches. [14] The wild beasts of the desert shall also meet with the jackals, And the wild goat shall bleat to its companion; Also the night creature shall rest there, And find for herself a place of rest. [15] There the arrow snake shall make her nest and lay eggs And hatch, and gather them under her shadow; There also shall the hawks be gathered, Every one with her mate”.

Jeremiah 34 is God’s reaction to those who took back, into bondage, slaves they had freed:

Jeremiah 34:17-22 says, “Therefore thus says the LORD: ‘You have not obeyed Me in proclaiming liberty, every one to his brother and every one to his neighbor. Behold, I proclaim liberty to you,’ says the LORD-‘to the sword, to pestilence, and to famine! And I will deliver you to trouble among all the kingdoms of the earth. [18] And I will give the men who have transgressed My covenant, who have not performed the words of the covenant which they made before Me, when they cut the calf in two and passed between the parts of it- [19] the princes of Judah, the princes of Jerusalem, the eunuchs, the priests, and all the people of the land who passed between the parts of the calf- [20] I will give them into the hand of their enemies and into the hand of those who seek their life. Their dead bodies shall be for meat for the birds of the heaven and the beasts of the earth. [21] And I will give Zedekiah king of Judah and his princes into the hand of their enemies, into the hand of those who seek their life, and into the hand of the king of Babylon’s army which has gone back from you. [22] Behold, I will command,’ says the LORD, ‘and cause them to return to this city. They will fight against it and take it and burn it with fire; and I will make the cities of Judah a desolation without inhabitant.'”

Ezekiel 34 is prophecy against the shepherds of Israel who exploit God’s flock.

Day 34 is Ephesians – Philemon day in the fifth 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, make a commitment to obey the Lord or to return to God. The blessing of the sixth season is the greatest; and so the curses of the sixth season. Happy 34th Day!

On this day in 2022, Ibrahim al-Hashimi al-Qurashi, the ISIS chief and second Caliph, died in a US coordinated raid of his camp in Syria. He blew up himself and 12 others.

Day 33: The Mystery of February 2

Nkem Okemiri

July 19, 2020

Welcome to the 33rd day of the year. Day 33 is also the fifth day of the fifth week of the year. It is the second day of the second month of the year. Day 33 is a core fifth-season day. This is the first major ’33rd’ in the year. The other major ’33rd’ is the 33rd week. The Bible patterns for understanding the 33rd day are 1) the fifth day of creation narrative; 2) the 33rd book of the Bible; 3) the 33rd chapters of the Bible; 4) the 5th five chapters of Deuteronomy, the fifth book of the Bible.

Day 33 is a fifth day of creation day. On the fifth day of creation, God began to make moving creatures to express full life on earth. They were not only moving creatures but were also perceptive, sound-producing, and reproductive creatures. God also blessed the fifth day creatures with fruitfulness and multiplication. In the fifth season, God gives all things that pertain to life and godliness; and he wants us to live a balanced life in the season. If we pursue the spiritual life in this season, we gain everything else with it. If we pursue the material at the expense of the spiritual, we lose everything.

Day 33 is a Deuteronomy 21-25 day; because it is the fifth day of the ‘Deuteronomy week’; and relates to the fifth five chapters of the book of Deuteronomy. This section of the book is about righteousness, justice, and fairness; and obedience to God’s commandments concerning unresolved murder, the status of the firstborn of a hated wife, handling female captives, and so on.

Day 33 is a book of Micah day. Micah is the 33rd book of the Bible. The book is about God’s decision to judge His people (Samaria and Jerusalem) for their sins. Micah 1:2-7 says, “Hear, all you peoples! Listen, O earth, and all that is in it! Let the Lord GOD be a witness against you, The Lord from His holy temple. [3] For behold, the LORD is coming out of His place; He will come down And tread on the high places of the earth. [4] The mountains will melt under Him, And the valleys will split Like wax before the fire, Like waters poured down a steep place. [5] All this is for the transgression of Jacob And for the sins of the house of Israel. What is the transgression of Jacob? Is it not Samaria? And what are the high places of Judah? Are they not Jerusalem? [6] “Therefore I will make Samaria a heap of ruins in the field, Places for planting a vineyard; I will pour down her stones into the valley, And I will uncover her foundations. [7] All her carved images shall be beaten to pieces, And all her pay as a harlot shall be burned with the fire; All her idols I will lay desolate, For she gathered it from the pay of a harlot, And they shall return to the pay of a harlot.” This is a day of judgments.

Day 33 is a 33rd-chapters-of-the-Bible day. It is a time to meet face-face to with the fearful. In Genesis 33, Jacob came face to face with his brother, Esau and there was no trouble. They embraced. He had a lot of livestock with which he sought the favor of Esau. In Exodus 33, Moses coveted the presence of God and even spoke face to face with God in the Tabernacle of meeting – after God said His presence would not go with Israel because of their rebelliousness. In Numbers 33, Israel’s journey from Egypt to Jordan is summarized – according to starting and stopping points. The death of Aaron at 123 years, on Mount Hur, is recorded in this chapter. In Deuteronomy 33, Moses blessed the children of Israel before his death. Simeon is not mentioned here. Second Chronicles is about the evil reign of Manasseh. Although he repented, God decreed captivity against Judah because of the sins of Manasseh. In Job 33, Elihu corrects Job for his words against God. He emphasizes the Sovereignty of God. He also spoke of ransom, redemption, and of a mediator. You do not need any of those three unless there is trouble. They are needed in the 33rd season. Psalm 33 is a call to rejoice in the Lord and praise Him (1-3) for His powerful word (4-12) and for His sovereign and saving power (13-22). Isaiah 33 is about the judgment coming to Zion and to the Plunderer that had not been plundered. In Jeremiah 33, God promised to cause the captivity of Judah to return and to restore Jerusalem. In Ezekiel 33, the prophet is a appointed a watchman because to warn the people of impending disaster. News of the fall of Jerusalem came to Ezekiel in this chapter. Ezekiel 33 is about the certainty of the judgment.

Day 33 is a Matthew – Galatians day in the fifth 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.

Day 33 is the second day of the second month. 2 Chronicles 3:2 reveals that Solomon began to build the temple on the second day of the second month. That’s is when he began to lay the foundation. This is a foundation-laying day. It is a day to lay foundation for a new habitation of God in your life. This is a day of new beginnings.

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.

The key to success in the 33rd season is obedience to God. The fifth season is averse to rebellion against God because it is a season to respond responsibly to the goodness of God; by obeying Him. It is a season to prioritize God’s Word and obedience to God. May obedience prosper you today. Happy 33rd day!

Day 32: The Mystery of February 1

Nkem Okemiri

July 19, 2020

Welcome to the 32nd day of the year. Day 32 is February 1. Day 32 is the fourth day of the fifth week. This is the first major ’32nd’ in the year. The other major ’32nd’ is the 32nd week. The Bible patterns for understanding the 32nd day are 1) the fourth day of creation narrative; 2) the 32nd book of the Bible; 3) the 32nd chapters of the Bible; 4) the 4th five chapters of Deuteronomy, the fifth book of the Bible.

Day 32 is the first day of the second month. The book of Numbers vegan with an instruction God gave Moses on the first day of the second month. The instruction God gave Moses was to take a census of all who are able to go to war in Israel. Numbers 1:1-3 says, “Now the LORD spoke to Moses in the Wilderness of Sinai, in the tabernacle of meeting, on the first day of the second month, in the second year after they had come out of the land of Egypt, saying: [2] “Take a census of all the congregation of the children of Israel, by their families, by their fathers’ houses, according to the number of names, every male individually, [3] from twenty years old and above-all who are able to go to war in Israel. You and Aaron shall number them by their armies”. God was telling him to prepare for war. Day 32 is a day to prepare to battle forces of darkness and road-blocking enemies.

Day 32 is a fourth day of creation day. On the fourth day of creation, God made guiding lights – the sun, the moon, and the stars. They were to be for lights, divide the darkness from the light, rule the day and the night, and be for signs and for seasons. Although God created light and day and night on the first, creating light-holders on the fourth day indicates that guiding lights are necessary in the fourth season. That is the reason God says, in Psalm 32:8, “I will guide you with my eye…” Guidance is very important today. W

Day 32 is a Deuteronomy 16-20 day. This is the fourth five chapters of Deuteronomy. The 16th chapter s a review of the laws concerning the Passover, the Feast of Weeks, and the Feast of Tabernacles. The chapter closes with a charge to administer justice in the land and shun idolatry. The 17th chapter continues with matters of idol worship and justice; and ends with guiding principles for kings in Israel. The 18th chapter is about the portion of priests, the prohibition of sorcery and other wicked customs, and the promise of a prophet like Moses and the warning against false prophets. The 19th chapter is about cities of refuge for the man-slayer, respect for landmarks and boundaries, and the law concerning witnesses in trials. The 20th chapter is about the principles governing warfare. Deuteronomy 16-20 shows that the 32nd day is a day of instructors and guidance.

Day 32 is a book-of-Jonah day. Jonah is the 32nd book of the Bible; and is applicable to the 32nd day of the year. In this book, God guided and sent Jonah to Nineveh to be a guiding light to them. The prophet chose to hide the light from Nineveh. He went to Tarshish instead of going to Nineveh; thereby sinning against God. Trouble ran after him until he repented. He went to Nineveh and preached and the people repented. Jonah was angry that God forgave Nineveh. God worked on his attitude. Rebellion against God is heavy and costly in the 32nd season; but it is a season for inward work. It is a season of inward purification.

Day 32 is a 32nd chapters-of-the-Bible day. The 32nd chapters reveal that the 32nd season is a season of inward spiritual repairs. Jacob became Israel in Genesis 32. In Exodus 32, Aaron made the Golden Calf for Israel. He failed the test. They wanted to replace Moses and God and sinned; but ran into trouble. Moses had gone to Mountain to receive the Law and Light for the nation. The breaking of the tablets of the Law meant turning off the light of the nation. People were killed and God also visited the people with plague. In Numbers 32, the Reubenites and Gadites requested to remain on the side before Jordan. They did not want to cross the Jordan. Moses did not like it much; and warned them. They eventually reached an agreement; and still went where they did not want to go. In the 32nd season, people are tempted to choose their own way and give half-hearted loyalty to God. In Deuteronomy 32, Moses spoke to Israel in a song and reminded them of their stubbornness before God; and how that by running from God, they often ran into the anger of God. After speaking to Israel, God commanded Moses to go up to Mount Abarim and die there. The law and justice demand satisfaction in the 32nd season; because sin is remembered in that season. Moses spoke of God’s vengeance in this chapter. In Second Chronicles 32, Sennacherib came against Judah and boasted against God. He overstepped his boundaries. His army was destroyed and his children killed him. Hezekiah received prophecy of death but cried out to God and was healed. He became proud. He received Babylonian visitors that came to see him. He was tested but failed the test. Hezekiah died in this chapter. In Job 32, Elihu, a young man in the company of Job’s friends, who had restrained himself from speaking, because of his age, spoke out – confronting both the three friends of Job and Job himself. He eventually did what he did not want to do. He had five chapters of uninterrupted rebuke-speech. No one else spoke that long at once. In Psalm 32, the psalmist speaks, from experience, of the blessedness of being forgiven. Sin is costly. That is the reason Psalm 32:1-6 says, “Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, Whose sin is covered. Blessed is the man to whom the LORD does not impute iniquity, And in whose spirit there is no deceit”. When I kept silent, my bones grew old Through my groaning all the day long. For day and night Your hand was heavy upon me; My vitality was turned into the drought of summer. Selah I acknowledged my sin to You, And my iniquity I have not hidden. I said, “I will confess my transgressions to the LORD,” And You forgave the iniquity of my sin. Selah For this cause everyone who is godly shall pray to You In a time when You may be found; Surely in a flood of great waters They shall not come near him”. Isaiah 32 is about a purging distress that would come upon God’s people. God’s people failed the test. Disaster comes on the complacent in the 32nd season. In Jeremiah 32, the prophet was shut up in prison because the king did not believe that what the prophet said would happen. It happened. Then a seeming contradiction occurs. God commands Jeremiah to buy a field from his uncle as faith-proof that the captives of Babylon would return to the land. Jeremiah passed the faith-test. Obedience to divine instruction is a blessing in the 32nd season. God assured Jeremiah that although the people will go into captivity and the land will become desolate, He would restore them to the land. Mercy is very loud in the 32nd season!

Ezekiel 32 is the prophet’s lamentation for Egypt’s desolation. Egypt failed the humility-test.

Day 32 is Obadiah – Malachi day in the fifth 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, trust the grace of God. Sin is a sinker in the 32nd season. It is a great blessing, life jacket, and safety belt to have peace with God in this season. Happy 32nd day!

On this day in 2019, God delivered the Vice President of Nigeria, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, and 11 others from perishing in a plane crash when their helicopter crash-landed in Kogi State.

Day 31: The Mystery of January 31

Nkem Okemiri

July 19, 2020

Welcome to the 31st day of the year! This is the first major 31st in the year. The other major 31st is the 31st week. Day 31 is the third day of the fifth week of the year. The Bible patterns for understanding the 31st day 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.

Day 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.

Day 31 is a book of Leviticus day in a book of Deuteronomy week. 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. Day 31 is a Deuteronomy 11-15 day; because it is the third day of the fifth week; 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.

The fifth week is about the justice of God in blessing or cursing. The third day of the week is the time to get serious with the demands and goal of the week. 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.

Day 31 is a book of Obadiah day. 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 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.

Day 31 is a 31st-chapters-of-the-Bible day. 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 defensive speeches in the 31st chapter of the book. See the last verse of Job 31. 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. 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 against 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.

Day 31 is Ecclesiastes – Amos Day in the fifth week of the year. 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. The longest months in the year have 31 days. After the 31st day, a new month begins. No month has 32 days! Today, 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. This is a day to move on; but without ‘the old’. It’s a new day! Today, per the power working in you, decide what must stop and what must start. Happy 31st day of the year!!!

On this day in 2020, the United Kingdom ceased to be a member of the European Union; ending her 47-year membership. In 1991, Nigeria’s 31st year, the nation moved her capital from Lagos to Abuja.

Day 30: The Mystery of January 30

Nkem Okemiri

July 19, 2020

Welcome to the 30th day of the year! Day 30 is the second day of the fifth week of the year. It is a second season day. The Bible patterns for understanding the 30th day are 1) the second day of creation narrative; 2) the 30th book of the Bible; 3) the 30th chapters of the Bible; 4) the second five chapters of Deuteronomy, the fifth book of the Bible.

Day 30 is a second-day-of-creation day. On the second day of creation, God created space (firmament or heaven) by getting the waters out of the way. The firmament divided the bloc of waters; one part under the firmament and the other part above the firmament. The firmament struck the waters from the middle. On this day, God dismantled a tangible obstacle and monopoly of the waters by the intangible firmament. Water should be heavier than space; yet space conquered it. This is a testimony to grace and greatness of God. The second-season monopolies could be systems, structures, or thought-patterns. The job of the firmament was to make way and make room for other things to exist. The second season is for removing things that occupy space but are dysfunctional. Anything that is threatening the existence of of other things is an enemy in the second season. Anyone threatening the existence of others is an enemy in the second season.

Day 30 is a Deuteronomy 6-10 day. It is a day to meditate on the grace of God. The second five chapters of Deuteronomy reveal that it was grace that gave Israel the Promised Land; not their righteousness. The sixth chapter is about fearing the and loving and clinging to His commandments. This is important because He is the backbone of Israel. The seventh chapter is about utterly destroying the inhabitants of the land. It is about God’s commitment to help ISRAEL destroy her enemies and possess the land. The eighth chapter is a warning against forgetting the Lord amid prosperity. The ninth and tenth chapters are reminders of God’s grace by pointing to Israel’s rebellion before God; which God forgave because of the intervention and intercession of Moses, the servant of God. It was the intercession of Moses that helped and saved the nation. The sin of the fifth season comes from forgetting the grace of God.

Day 30 is a book of Amos day. Amos is the thirtieth book of the Bible. Amos prophesied judgment against Israel because of transgressions. To transgress is to go beyond or overstep some boundaries or limits. Israel overstepped her moral boundaries and limits in the book of Amos. The prophet uses the word ‘transgress’, ‘transgression’, or ‘transgressions’ in eleven verses within the first five chapters of the book. The grief in God’s heart concerning Israel’s transgressions was that they had forgotten the Grace and Power that delivered Israel from bondage. In their prosperity, they had forgotten God. The sin of Israel in the book of Amos is from intoxication with prosperity and abundance. The book of Amos is a book of fire – against transgressors. The thirtieth season is for destroying palaces with fire – among those who transgress the Lord’s commandments.

Day 30 is a 30th-chapters-of-the-Bible day. The 30th is a season of strife, competition, and war. In Genesis 30, Rachel declared war against her husband and her elder sister because of her barrenness. Two wives and seven children were added to Jacob. He also struck a new bargain with his uncle; that gave him much livestock. Exodus 30 is about commandments relating to the altar of incense, ransom money, bronze laver, holy anointing oil and incense. In the 30th season, barriers are broken in the tabernacle of God. Numbers 30 is commandments relating to vows. A man must not break his vows to God. The vows of a wife must be ratified by her husband. A girl’s vows must be ratified by her father. Vows are barrier breakers. In Deuteronomy 30, Moses puts before Israel the choice to obey or disobey God; and the attending blessings or curses. In First Samuel 30, Amalekites raided David’s camp at Ziklag and took away his family and the families of his men. He pursued them and recovered all. In Second Chronicles 30, Hezekiah led Judah to keep a great restored Passover feast. The 30th season is a season of recovery and revival. Isaiah 30 is a call to Israel to trust in the Lord instead of Egypt. Ezekiel 30 is prophecy that Egypt and her allies will fail. Jeremiah 30 is God’s promise about the restoration of Israel and Judah.

Day 30 is a First Kings – to – Proverbs Day in the fifth week of the year. 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, fight for what you desire. Speak out and step out. Negotiate! Happy 30th day.

Day 29: The Mystery of January 29

Nkem Okemiri

July 19, 2020

Welcome to the 29th day of the year! Day 29 is the first day of the fifth week of the year. This is a first season day. The Bible patterns for understanding the 29th day are 1) the first day of creation narrative; 2) the 29th book of the Bible; 3) the 29th chapters of the Bible; 4) the first five chapters of Deuteronomy, the fifth book of the Bible.

Day 29 is a first-day-of-creation day. On the first day of creation, God introduced light, separated it from darkness, and established day and night. That is like separating right and wrong, pure and profane, good and evil. God created time on the first day. From the first day of creation, we learn that the first season is a day of light standing apart from darkness. The first season is for self-manifestation. God is Light. He manifested Himself on the first day of creation. It is a season to take a clear stand; to stand for light against darkness. God is Light; and rises against darkness in the first season. Light judges darkness to overthrow it in the first season. The darkness of the first season is often the consequence of rejecting light or truth. The first season is a season of enlightenment; but if truth is rejected, it becomes a season of gross darkness.

Day 29 is a book of Genesis day in a book of Deuteronomy week. Genesis is a first season book and represents the overthrow of anything that is not in alignment with God and His purpose. Creation was God’s overthrow of the status quo. In the book Genesis, God also overthrew rebels – Adam and Eve, Noah’s generation, Sodom and Gomorrah, and the Amorites. Day 29 is a Deuteronomy 1-5 day. The first five chapters of the fifth book of the Bible is applicable to the first day of the fifth week of the year. Deuteronomy has 34 chapters. If you divide the 34 chapters of Deuteronomy into seven days, you get five chapters each for the first six days and a remainder of four chapters for the seventh day. The book of Deuteronomy opens with a review of the overthrows that happened in the journey from Egypt to the Promised Land – the kings and their kingdoms, the rebels among the children of Israel; including Moses and Aaron. In the fourth chapter, Moses challenged the people to cling to God and His Word. In the fifth chapter, Moses rehearsed the Ten Commandments before the new generation of Israelites and reminded them how their fathers committed themselves to obeying God.

Day 29 is a book of Joel day. Joel is the 29th book of the Bible; and the beginning of the fifth-seven books of the Bible.. The book looks back at destructions and devastations that had occurred in Judah as a sign of divine displeasure; and calls the people and leaders to seek the Lord with fasting amid threats of more overthrows and disasters – even war. Those who dishonor God in the 29th season are calling for disaster.

Day 29 is a 29th-chapters-of the-Bible day. In Genesis 29, served his uncle for 14 years to marry his two daughters. Although he was tricked in this season to marry Leah, God blessed him with fruitfulness and multiplication. In this chapter, he had four sons from his first wife. Moses consecrated Aaron and his sons in Exodus 29. There, he also gave laws concerning the daily offerings. Numbers 29 is about the offerings at the appointed feasts. In Deuteronomy 29, Moses led Israel to renew covenant with God. The 29th season is a season of offerings when God’s right is recognized and upheld. So, it turns into a season of disaster if covenant is broken. In First Chronicles 29, David led the people to give themselves and their resources for the construction of the temple.

In First Samuel 29, the Philistines rejected David’s assistance in war with Israel. Their decision saved David from fighting in the war that consumed Saul and his sons. Light and darkness do not work together in the 29th season. In Second Chronicles 29, Hezekiah became king of Judah, began his reforms that restored temple worship in Jerusalem and Judah. The 29th season is a season of revival. Isaiah 29 is prophecy of judgment and recovery. In Jeremiah 29, the prophet sent a letter to the captives in Babylon,announcing the duration of the captivity and encouraging them to relax. He also prophesied against those who rejected God’s captivity plan; and those prophesying lies to the captives in Babylon. Ezekiel 29 is prophetic proclamations against Egypt that gave power to Babylon.

The 29th season is a season of blessings for those who run with Go; and a season of curses for those who run against God. The 29th President of the United States died in office. Within the 29th seven years of the United States, President Nixon resigned from office following the Watergate Scandal.

Day 29 is a Genesis – Second Samuel day in the 4th 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. Today, as a child of Light, take a stand against darkness by choosing to seek God and His ways. Take a stand for repentance and revival. Happy 29th day.
