Day 19: The Mystery of January 19

May 28, 2020

Welcome to the 19th day of the year! Day 19 is the fifth day of the third week; and the nineteenth day in the first 49 days of the year. This is a fifth season day. The Bible keys for understanding the 19th day are 1) the narrative of the 5th day of creation, 2) the 19th book of the Bible, 3) the 19th chapters of the Bible, and 4) the 5th four chapters of Leviticus.

Day 19 is a fifth day of creation day in the third week. On the fifth day of creation, God began to make

Breathing creatures

Free-moving creatures – swimming and flying.

Flesh and blood creatures.

Balance-loving creatures

Space-loving creatures

Consumer-creatures

Sense-ruled (perceptive) creatures

Flesh-reproducing creatures

Flexible moving (gliding) creatures

Adventure and fun-loving creatures.

Community-loving creatures

Sound-making creatures.

Strange creatures – they live or go where others fear to. They thrive where others fail.

On the fifth day of creation, God made living creatures in abundance and blessed them with fruitfulness and multiplication. God did not bless anything before the fifth day.

The fifth day is a day of new beginning. It is for full expression of life. It is day to pray against the opposite of the things God did on the fifth day.

Day 19 is a book of Deuteronomy day in a book of Leviticus week. The book of Deuteronomy emphasizes prioritizing and obeying God’s word to ensure bless and avoid curses. Obedience brings divine blessings while disobedience attracts divine curses.

Day 19 is a book of Psalms day in the year and in the first 49 days of the year.. The book of Psalms is the 19th book of the Bible; and is applicable to the 19th day of the year. The book of Psalms is about finding sufficiency in God – fearing and obeying Him, trusting, and depending on Him, praying to Him, thanking Him and praising Him. The book of Psalms is about living out your faith. It is about following God and trusting and calling on Him to fight your battles. The book of Psalms consists of 150 chapters just as there are 150 categories of chapters in the Bible. The 19th book of the Bible indicate that the 19th day of the year is a communing with God, in prayer, songs and praises, and a day of confessing faith in God and talking to circumstances. It is a day of boasting in God. It is a day of praying to God. It is a day of singing to God and praising Him. It is a day of testimonies and thanksgiving. It is a day of battles and facing the enemy by faith in God. It is the day of those who fear God trust in Him.

Day 19 is a Leviticus 17-20 day. This fifth section of Leviticus is about the sanctity of blood, maintaining sexual purity, holiness, and consequences of breaking the law of God. Day 19 is about facing through meditating and obeying God’s word on one hand; and praying to Him and praising Him on the other hand.

Day 19 is a Matthew – Galatians day in the week. It is a day of the compassionate intervention of God. Every week is like a journey through the Bible having an Old Testament side and a New Testament side. The first four days of the week belong to the Old Testament side and expresses the 39 books of the Old Testament. The remaining three days of the week constitute the New Testament side and express the 27 books of the New Testament. The fifth day of the week is the beginning of the New Testament side of the week; and expresses the first nine books of the New Testament. The first 9 books of the NT are about Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, and the Church. The books are about the love and grace of God granting salvation and justification to humanity by faith. This is a day to enter experientially into the New Testament side of the week. It is a day of answers to prayers, fulfillment of prophecies, and delivery of promises. The New Testament side is the spiritual and deeper side. The New Testament side is the side of manifestation. The old has passed away; and the new has begun. Dreams for the week are expected to come to pass and promises should be fulfilled. Expect deliverance and divine intervention.

DECREE AND DECLARE: At creation, God spoke His will into each day. He made us in His image and likeness; and expects us to release His will into each day. Decree this day that the flesh will not overtake the spirit in your life, family,, organization, and nation. Decree a change in the week and declare that today is the beginning of the New Testament side of the 33rd week. As a Book-of-Matthew day, decree that Emmanuel (God is with us) takes over. As a New Testament type day, decree that the love of God will overtake human error and failure. Today, submit to the spirit against the flesh. Walk in the spirit and make no room for the flesh. The fifth season is a season of giving spiritual interpretations to earthly manifestations. Today, make it your watchword to walk in the spirit and obey God’s Word. Walking in the spirit is the key to gaining all. Birds (representing the spirit) fly above and eat from the land, the sea, and the air. Today, cry out to God against oppression and for the pains in your life. Speak out also. Trust Him to intervene in your affairs and in the affairs of people around you. Determine to make a next-level move. It’s time to shift base in the spirit! Today, put yourself on the side of blessing by choosing obedience instead of curses by choosing disobedience. Today, focus on your faith and your relationship with God. Give attention to His worth, His works, and His Word. The 19th season is for putting God and His Word first in your life. Keep yourself pure and seek His will. It is not a season of connecting to men but of connecting to, and communing with, God. Happy 19th day of the year!

Day 18: The Mystery of January 18

Nkem Okemiri

May 28, 2020

Welcome to the 18th day of the year! Day 18 is the fourth day of the third week of the year. The fourth day is the middle of the seven-day week. It is the bridge-day of the week. Today, we are crossing the bridge in the third week of the year. Drive carefully. The Bible keys for understanding the eighteenth day are 1) the narrative of the fourth day of creation, 2) the 18th book of the Bible, 3) the 18th chapters of the Bible, and 4) the fourth four chapters of Leviticus.

This Day 18 is a fourth day of creation day. On the fourth day of creation, God made the luminaries, to give light, divide the darkness and the light, rule the night and the day, be for seasons. The luminaries tell us when it is night or day; or when the season changes. They are like judges and referees. They give verdicts concerning times and seasons. This is a day of verdicts and pronouncements. Take your stand as a luminary in Christ and rule.

Day 18 is a ‘book of Numbers day’ in the third week of the year. Numbers is the fourth book of the Bible; and Leviticus is the third book of the Bible. In the fourth book of the Bible, Israel went through testing for the Promised Land. God EXAMINED them and PRONOUNCED the judgment that kept Israel wandering in the wilderness for 40 years.

Day 18 is a book-of-Job day in the first 49 days of the year. Job is the 18th book of the Bible. In the book of Job, Satan struck the godly man with boils and skin disease after He had lost his children and business. He went through emotional turmoil as his friends argued with him about his plea of innocence; and rather charged him with guilt. Job’s condition was a test of his faith. After God had EXAMINED Job, He PRONOUNCED Him ‘not guilty’ and turned his situation around for good.

Day 18 is 18th-chapters-of-the-Bible day. The 18th chapters of the Bible reveal, among other things, that the 18th season is time of prayer and intercession (Genesis 18, Psalm 18, Luke 18, John 18). The 18th book and chapters reveal that the 18th is a time of revelation. Without revelation in this season, people may stumble. God gave Abraham revelation in Genesis 18. Micaiah had revelation in Second Chronicles 18. Job and his friends had no revelation of what happened on the backstage.

Day 18 is Leviticus 13-16 day. This section of Leviticus opens with laws about how the priest should handle people with skin diseases, boils, and bodily discharges; and closes with laws about the day of atonement. People with skin issues, are to be EXAMINED and a PRONOUNCEMENT made towards isolation or integration. The priests are the judges in matters of skin affliction. Heaven is waiting and waiting to give the verdict.

Day 18 is Obadiah – Malachi day in the third week of the year. 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, may Heaven give you a pronouncement of remarkable favor.

Day 17: The Mystery of January 17

Nkem Okemiri

May 28, 2020

Welcome to the 17th day of the year. Day 17 is the third day of the third week of the year. It is a core third-season day. Day 17 is the game-changing third day in the game-changing third week. The illustrative Bible patterns for understanding the seventeenth day are 1) the narrative of the third day of creation; the 17th book of the Bible; the 17th chapters of the Bible, and 4) the third four chapters of the third book of the Bible.

Day 17 is a third day of creation day in the third week of the year. On the third day of creation, God gave boundaries to the waters, displayed the dry ground, and released vegetation from the dry ground. On the third day, God removed the barrier (water) between heaven (firmament) and earth (dry ground). Day 17 is a book of Leviticus day in the third week of the year. It is a core Leviticus day. It is a Leviticus day in a Leviticus week. The book of Leviticus is about spiritual Service. It is about WHO does the service, WHY the service is done, WHERE the service is done, WHEN the service is done, HOW the service is done, and WHAT must be used for the service. Day 17 is a core service-day – rendering supportive service to men; and acceptable service to God. It is a day of ensuring unity between heaven and earth. The ministry of the Priests and Levites was to keep men in fellowship with God – ensuring that the barrier between heaven and earth is removed.

Day 17 is a book of Esther day in the first 49 days of the year. Esther is the 17th book of the Bible. In the book of Esther, there were overthrows and replacements. Vashti was removed. Esther was crowned. Bigthan and Teresh were killed for plotting against the king. Haman was promoted, clashed with Mordecai, and decided to destroy the Jews. Everything turned against him. Mordecai and Esther and the king became the new platforms for good – after the dysfunctional platforms which the king trusted were removed. This is a day of backlash against the wicked. This day is for the manifestation of those who can be trusted to deliver desired results through service. It is a season for the revelation or manifestation of hidden people and things.

Day 17 is a 17th-chapters-of-the-Bible day. The seventeenth chapters of the Bible reveal that Day 17 is a day of action against death and deadness. Death seeks a place in the seventeenth season but should be overthrown. The seventeenth season is a season of action against hopelessness. In Genesis 17, 99 year-old Abram became Abraham and 90 year-old Sarai becomes Sarah. In Exodus 17, thirsty Israel drank water from a dry rock and Israel defeated Amalek. In Numbers 17, Aaron’s dry rod budded and bore ripe fruits overnight. In 1 Samuel 17, David challenged, defeated, killed, and beheaded the boastful Philistine giant, Goliath of Gath. This was the beginning of his manifestation to Israel. He dared the giant with his sling and stones. In 2 Samuel 17, Hushai defeated the terrible advice of Ahitophel to personally lead 12,000 soldiers against Israel right away. When he saw his counsel was rejected, he left for his country home, put his house in order, and committed suicide. In First Kings 17, Elijah decreed that there would be no rain or dew in Israel. It did not rain for 42 months. God told Elijah to go to Brook Cherith. There, he drank water and ravens brought him food day and night. When the brook dried, God sent him to a widow at Zarephath. The widow and her child had just one meal to eat before death. Elijah ordered to be served first and promised the food would never finish. It never finished. Later the widow’s child died and Elijah raised him back to life. This is first account of raising the dead in the Bible. In Matthew 17, Jesus was manifested as God’s choice instead of Elijah and Moses; He delivered a boy possessed by a spirit of epilepsy. Jesus also told Peter to catch fish, get a piece of money from inside the fish, and pay their tribute. In this chapter, Jesus said if you have faith, nothing shall be impossible to you. In Acts 17, Paul preached in three cities – Thessalonica, Berea, and Athens. At Thessalonica, they faced strong resistance. The Bereans were scripture-searchers. At Athens, Paul saw that the entire city was given to idol worship. The seventeenth season is a season when faith is awakened. It is a time to inspire faith in the Almighty God.

Day 17 is Leviticus 9-12 day. Aaron’s priestly ministry began formally in the ninth chapter. His two sons, Nadab and Abihu died in chapter 10 for offering strange fire. The eleventh chapter is about foods forbidden and unclean animals. The twelfth chapter is the ritual following child birth. This section is about manifestation for service, overthrows, and bringing forth. This is a day of rendering acceptable service before God and to men.

Day 17 is Ecclesiastes – Amos Day in the third 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. Happy third day of the week!

Day 17 is a season of overthrows and new installations. It is a season of glorious manifestations. Today, take time to render quality and acceptable service. Do the right things and do them the right. Honor men but reverence God above men. The enemies shall be overthrown. Happy 17th day of the year.

DECLARATION AND BLESSING

Today, Heaven is taking action against dryness, deadness, hopelessness, and wickedness. Your Abram will become Abraham; and your Sarai will become Sarah as in Genesis 17. Refreshing water will come out of dry rock for you; and your Amalek will fall before you; you as in Exodus 17. Your dry rod will bud, blossom, and bear ripe fruit ‘overnight’ as in Numbers 17. Your Goliath will fall shamefully as in First Samuel 17. Your Ahitophel will kill himself as in Second Samuel 17. Provisions will come from unlikely places for you (as from ravens and from poor widows); and your dead things shall come back to life as in First Kings 17. Your Haman shall fall, those occupying your seat and position shall vacate, and those who want you dead will go down instead – as in the 17th book of the Bible. You will be transfigured and your face will shine. What the tax collectors want from you, that you do not have, will be waiting for you in the mouth of the fish the fisherman in you will catch. You will never be stranded, but you will be help to the helpless as in Matthew 17. The ‘disease’ and ‘uncleanliness’ that keeps you out and away will leave you as it left the ten lepers in Luke 17. The heavens shall be open to you as Jesus experienced it in John 17. You will triumph in your Thessalonica, Berea, and Athens, as Paul did in Acts 17. The deceitful, blood-drinking, Babylon that is distressing you will be exposed and judged as in Revelation 17. Welcome to the 17th day of the year; welcome to the game-changing third day of the game-changing third week of the year.

Day 16: The Mystery of January 16

Nkem Okemiri

May 28, 2020

Welcome to the 16th day of the year. Day 16 is the second day of the third week of the year. Day 16 is the sixteenth day of the first month. It is a day of finishing. 2 Chronicles 29:17 says, “Now they began to sanctify on the first day of the first month, and on the eighth day of the month they came to the vestibule of the LORD. So they sanctified the house of the LORD in eight days, and on the sixteenth day of the first month they finished”. The Lord will help you to complete a task today. The Bible patterns for understanding Day 16 are 1) the narrative of the second day of creation; 2) the 16th book of the Bible; 3) the 16th chapters of the Bible; and 4) the second four chapters of the third book of the Bible, Leviticus.

Day 16 is a second day of creation day. On the second day of creation, God created the firmament to DIVIDE the waters and thwart the monopoly of the waters. It was on the second day that God created space. Nothing else could come into existence without space. Day 16 is the Way-Maker’s Day. Today, Heaven will make a way where there is none. Day 16 is a book of Exodus day in the third week of the year; it is the second day of the week. Israel was delivered from slavery and Egyptian bondage in the book of Exodus. Day 16 is a season of battle for freedom and space.

Day 16 is a book of Nehemiah day in the first 49 days of the year. Nehemiah is the 16th book of the Bible. The burden of Nehemiah, in this book, was to rebuild the walls ofJerusalem – “that we no longer be a reproach”. He was in a spiritual fight to restore the glory of Judah. An unwalled city will have problems with trespassers. It is easier to check trespassers when a wall is in place. Day 16 is a day to protect yourself from unlawful intrusion and invasion. It is a day to take action to restore dignity.

Day 16 is a 16-chapters-of-the-Bible day. The 16th chapters of the Bible reveal that the 16th season of fierce spiritual battle. It is a season of pressure in which men are tempted to find a way for themselves. In Genesis 16 Sarah was pressured by barrenness to give her maid to Abraham as wife. When Hagar became pregnant, she despised Sarah; who in turn came down on her with high-handedness. When Hagar came under pressure, she ran away from the house. The. Angel of the Lord met her and told her to return to Sarah and submit to her. The birth of Ishmael is recorded in this chapter. In Exodus 16, Israel faced pressure from hunger and God gave them Manna in the wilderness. In Numbers 16, Korah and his company came under pressure to revolt against Moses. They perished. In Judges 16, Samson came under pressure from Delilah and revealed the secret of his supernatural strength. It was a very costly mistake. In First Samuel 16, David was anointed king; and Saul came under pressure from depression. David was hired to play soothing music for the king. In Second Samuel 16, David ran from Absalom. In Second Kings 16, Ahaz turned to idols for help. In Second Chronicles 16, Asa came under battle-pressure and hired the king of Syria to help him. God rebuked him for it. In Luke 16, Jesus told the parable of the unjust steward who came under pressured to falsify records. He also told the story of the rich man and Lazarus. The rich man did not use his wealth to make way for the poor. He died, went to hell and faced eternal pressure. In Acts 16, Paul and Silas came under pressure for preaching the truth and casting out demons from a slave girl. They were imprisoned but God made a way for them. In Revelation 16, men came under intense pressure from the seven vials of judgment but they did not repent or turn to God. The sixteenth season is a time to turn to God instead of making your own pray. Nehemiah, in the sixteenth book of the Bible, trusted God to make a way for the rebuilding of the walls of Jerusalem. Let God be your strength and secret today and in every 16th season.

Day 16 is Leviticus 5-8 day. The second four chapters of the third book of the Bible is applicable to the second day of the third week of the year. This section of Leviticus is about trespass offering – compensation for unwitting infringement or certain intentional transgressions (peripheral sins). Day 16 is for outward or peripheral boundaries. It s a day to draw the outermost boundaries of behavior. Trespass offerings are about refusing to protect others and yourself. It is about allowing others to take advantage of others or about allowing things that should not come near you to touch you. Touching an unclean thing is opening your life to trespass and you are guilty. Refusing to witness or testify where and when you should exposes someone else and makes you guilty. Speaking thoughtlessly is allowing vanity to trespass into your mind and mouth and makes you guilty because you did not protect yourself from that trespass. This is a day defend or stand up for your ground and right. It is not a day to throw yourself open to invaders and intruders.

Day 16 is a First Kings – to – Proverbs Day in the third 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, protect your life from unlawful mind-invaders, time-invaders, faith-invaders, and privacy-invaders. Build a wall of responsibility around your life. Happy sixteenth day of the year.

ON THIS DAY

January 16, 2019, UK government survives no-confidence vote by 325-306 (19 votes margin). It must have taken a serious fight from the PM Theresa May to secure her ground, office and government; and not suffer vote of no-confidence. She built up a wall of protection for her government.

January 16, 2020, the lower house of Russian Parliament appointed a new prime minister, Mikhail Mishustin to replace Dimitry Medvedev who resigned the previous day and became Deputy Chairman of Russia’s Security Council. Hopefully, the government of the new Prime minister is not a child of pressure.

Day 15: The Mystery of January 15

Nkem Okemiri

May 28, 2020

Welcome to the 15th day of the year! Day 15 is the first day of the third week; and the fifteenth day in the first 49 days of the year. Day 15 is the fifteenth day of the first month. This is a new-level day! It will be for you like the day Israel departed Egypt. Numbers 33:3 says, “They departed from Rameses in the first month, on the fifteenth day of the first month; on the day after the Passover the children of Israel went out with boldness in the sight of all the Egyptians”. Day 15 is a first season day and has its pattern in the first day of creation, first book of the Bible and in the first chapters of the Bible.

Day 15 is a first day of creation day in the third week of the year. On the first day of the creation, God spoke and called light over darkness. This a day of light triumphing over darkness. It is a day of truth rising above lies. It is a day of good overcoming evil. Today, those who sit in darkness shall see the light.

Day 15 is a book of Genesis day in the third week of the year. Genesis is the first book of the Bible and is about beginnings – the beginning of the earth, man, sin, death, languages, nations. This is a day of beginnings. It’s a turning-point day.

Day 15 is a 15th-chapters-of-the-Bible day. The fifteenth chapters of the Bible reveal that Day 15 (or 15th season) is a season of breakthroughs. It is for laying a new foundation. In the 15th chapter of Genesis, God spoke to Abraham about the multitudes that would descend from him, about inheriting the land, and about the Egyptian bondage on Israel. In Exodus 15, Miriam led Israel to sing to God following the crossing of the Red Sea. The wilderness journey began for Israel in this chapter. Here, also, God healed the bitter waters and the people had clean water to drink. In Numbers 15, God gave Israel laws concerning offerings and the Sabbath. This chapter comes between the pronouncement of judgment on those who rejected the Promised Land in Numbers 14 and on those who rebelled against Moses in Numbers 16. Joshua 15 marked the beginning of tribes inheriting the land. Judah took her inheritance in this chapter. It was Samson’s defeat of the Philistines in Judges 15 that made the made the nation set him up with Delilah. In First Samuel 15, Saul’s rebellion against God reached a point of no-more-pardon. Absalom’s Revolution began in Second Samuel 15. Asa’s reforms is recorded in Second Chronicles 15. In the New Testament, Acts 15 is the beginning of freedom for Gentile believers. The 15th season is a new-foundation season. Acts 15:16-17 says, “After this I will return and will rebuild the tabernacle of David, which has fallen down; I will rebuild its ruins, and I will set it up; So that the rest of mankind may seek the LORD, Even all the Gentiles who are called by My name, Says the LORD who does all these things.’ Today, new foundations for things would be laid in your life and in our world.

Day 15 is a book of Ezra day in the first 49 days of the year. The book of Ezra opens with a written proclamation from King Cyrus to go and rebuild the house of God in Jerusalem. He gave the Jews in Persia liberty to go and rebuild the House of God and also released to them the treasures looted from the temple. That was a serious breakthrough for the Jewish captives. This is a day of restoration by the Word of God. This day is for proclaiming the Word concerning the House of God on earth. It is a day to remember and favor the house of God.

Day 15 is a Leviticus 1-4 day. The first four chapters of the third book of the Bible are applicable to the first day of the third week. The first four chapters of Leviticus are about offerings – burnt offering, grain offering, peace offering, and sin offering; when to offer them, why, and how to offer them. The offerings are for reparation of ruined relationship with God. The fifteenth season is for rebuilding.

As a first day of creation day, the first day of the third week is for dismantling oppression. As a book of Genesis day, it is for beginnings. As a book of Ezra day, it is for restoring ruins and rebuilding waste places. As a Leviticus 1-4 day, it is for rebuilding rebuilding fellowship with God.

Since God intends this day to be a day rebuilding ruins and making new beginnings, we must watch against the enemy turning into a day of causing ruins and bringing lives and purposes to an end.

Day 15 is a Genesis – Second Samuel day in the third 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.!

Day 14: The Mystery of January 14

Nkem Okemiri

May 28, 2020

Welcome to the 14th day of the year! Day 14 is the seventh and last day of the second week of the year; and the 14th day in the first 49 days of the year. Day 14 is the first day of the month. Numbers 28:16 says, ‘On the fourteenth day of the first month is the Passover of the LORD”. Judgment passed over Israel on the 14th day of the first month. Today, you will experience Passover! The Bible keys for understanding the 14th day are the 7th day of creation event, the 7th book of the Bible, the 7th chapters of the Bible, and the 14th book and chapters of the Bible.

Day 14 is a seventh season day and has its pattern in the seventh day of creation. On the seventh day of creation, God ended His work and rested. He also blessed and hallowed the seventh day. Rest only comes when work ends and there are no more battles. The seventh season is a season of rest from labors and battles.

Day 14 is a book of Second Chronicles day. Second Chronicles is the fourteenth book of the Bible. This 36-chapter book opens with the reign of Solomon and featured prominently the kings of Judah – especially the reformer-Kings: Asa, Jehoshaphat, Hezekiah, and Josiah. These reformer kings were threatened by mega enemies from whom God gave them victories. The book ends with the destruction of Jerusalem and captivity; and the proclamation of King Cyrus ending the captivity. The book vindicates God by highlight that God sent prophets to warn His people but they hardened their hearts until there was no remedy. This book does not highlight the sins of Solomon; but only his wisdom, exploits and greatness – especially his dedication to the construction of the house of God. Why does this 14th book hide the sins of David and his sons? The fourteenth is a season of mercy. It is when sins are covered or atoned for by the blood. Israel escaped death on the fourteenth day of their first month by the Passover. The fourthly is a season of salvation by grace.

Day 14 is a ’14th chapters of the Bible day’. The fourteenth chapters reveal that the fourteenth season is a season of judgment and salvation; season of wars and deliverances. In Genesis 14, enemies attacked Sodom and her allies and took many captives – including Lot and his family. When Abraham heard it, he and his servants and allies went and fought four kings who had defeated five kings; to rescue Lot and others from their captors. In Exodus 14, God delivered Israel from their enemies at the Red Sea. Egyptians perished at the sea. In Numbers 14, God vowed to destroy men of Israel, from twenty years and above, in the wilderness; except Joshua and Caleb. In Joshua 14, Caleb drove out those enemies occupying his inheritance. In Judges 14, Samson began his battles against the Philistines. In First Samuel 14, Jonathan and his armor bearer fought the Philistines and bright great deliverance to Israel. In Second Samuel 14, Absalom returned from Exile; but not with penitence; and still received pardon from David. In First Kings 14, God judged the house of Jeroboam for misleading Israel. The king of Egypt also came against Rehoboam and Judah and took away the treasures of the house of God and treasures of the king’s house. In Second Kings 14, Judah fought Israel but was defeated in battle. In the fourteenth chapter of the fourteenth book of the Bible, Ethiopians fought Asa and Judah but God delivered Ethiopians into the hands of Asa and Judah. Matthew records the story of the beheading of John the Baptist. Jesus fed five thousand here, walked on the sea, and healed many who were sick. In Acts 14, Paul and his team engaged in spiritual warfare in first leg of their missionary journey. Revelation 14 speaks of the harvest of the grape of God’s wrath – in mass destruction. The 14th season a season of intense warfare – man against man, man against God, or God against man. That is the reason John 14 opens with Jesus saying, “Let not your heart be troubled”.

Day 14 is an Exodus 37-40 day. In these last four chapters of the book of Exodus, the tabernacle work was finished. As God ended His work on the seventh day, that is how man’s work ended in this seventh section of the book. The tabernacle was erected the glory o the Lord dedicated and opened it. When the glory of God came into the tabernacle, the cloud filled the tabernacle; and man could not go in because his work had ended. Day 14 is an end-of-work, end-of-battle season.

Although Day 14 is a Sabbath season, the evil one intends it to be a season of sacrilege, disasters, war, destruction, and unrest. Instead of a season of blessing, he wants it to be a season curses. He does this by setting man against God. The fourteenth century was a century of disasters. The First World War began in 1914 – the fourteenth year of the 20th century. 2014 was a year of disasters around the world.

Day 15 is a Hebrews – Revelation day in the second week of the year. 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. Have. happy 14th day of the year!

Day 13: The Mystery of January 13

Nkem Okemiri

May 28, 2020

Welcome to the 13th day of the year! Day 13 is the sixth day of the second week; and the 13th day in the first 49 days of the year. Day 13 is a sixth season day. The Bible keys for understanding the thirteenth day are the sixth day of creation event, the sixth book of the Bible, the sixth chapters of the Bible, the thirteenth book and chapters of the Bible.

Day 13 is a sixth season day and has its pattern in the sixth day of creation. God created man and land animals on the sixth day.

WHAT HAPPENED ON THE SIXTH DAY OF CREATION?

1. God perfected the creation of flesh and blood. So, manifestations of the flesh attain perfection in the sixth season.

2. God gave governance of the earth to man. The sixth season is the season of administrators and rulers.

3. God instituted partnership and companionship. The sixth season is not for lone rangers. It is a “Let us” season.

4. God made very rational and sensible creatures on the sixth day. It is the inventor’s season. It is the season of the wise.

5. God gave the earth to man as inheritance. God gives inheritance in the sixth season

6. God created man in His image. This is the day of God’s image. God His image and representation in the sixth season. The sixth season is the season of the master-piece. God distinguished man from the rest of creation. The sixth season is a season of distinction.

7. God blessed man with fruitfulness and multiplication. The sixth season is a season fruitfulness and increase.

8. God communicated with man concerning provisions. God gives commands and instructions in the sixth season.

Day 13 is a book of First Chronicles day. First Chronicles is the thirteenth book of the Bible. This book showcases David as God chosen one – having affection for God and sold out to doing the will of God. Opening with the genealogy of Adam, moves to Abraham, to Jacob, Judah, and then David. The story of David begins from the 11th chapter and runs till the end of the book. In this book, David is the man after God’s heart and is blameless. The thirteenth book of the Bible reveals that the thirteenth season is the season of the man made in the image and likeness of God. In the thirteenth season, God seeks the man who will do His will. In First Chronicles, David’s affection and zeal for God is highlighted.

Day 13 is a ‘thirteenth chapters of the Bible’ day. The 13th chapters of the Bible reveal that the thirteenth season is a season of separation. In Genesis 13, Lot departed from Abraham and God spoke to Abraham about inheriting the land. In Exodus 13, Israel departed Egypt for the Promised Land. In Numbers 13, Joshua and Caleb stand out from the other spies as the agents of God. In Judges 13, barrenness ended in the house of Manoah; and Samson is born a Nazirite, fully separated and dedicated to God to deliver Israel from the hand of the Philistines. In First Samuel 13, Saul began to rebel against God; and faced rejection from being king. In Second Samuel 13, crises breaks out in the house of David. Absalom killed his half-brother, Amnon, for raping his sister, Tamar. In First Kings 13, the man of God from Judah perished for disobeying God. In John 13, Judas Iscariot is introduced as the one to betray Jesus. In Acts 13, Paul and Barnabas departed Antioch to begin their missionary journeys. In Revelation 13, the beast, false prophet, and the mark of the beast are introduced; as the antithesis of the image of God in man. The thirteenth chapters of John, Romans, First Corinthians, and Hebrews, reveals that love is important in the thirteenth season. Love is the expression of God. It is the mark of people made in the image and likeness of God. The thirteenth season is an expression of the sixth season in which God made man in His image and likeness.

Day 13 is an Exodus 31-36 day. Here, chose and called Bezalel and his company to undertake the task of constructing the tabernacle and the things in it. The Golden Calf error, the breaking of the Tablets Nd the making of new ones all happened here. Moses received Sabbath regulations, commissioned Bezalel to do the work, and the work began.

Although Day 13 is a day to manifest the image and likeness of God in man, without understanding, Day 13 can become a day of disagreements and provocations leading to war, destruction, and death. It can become a day of hate and oppression. It can become a day of rebellion against God leading to judgmental misfortunes. Pray this day into alignment and conformity to God’s will; and stay in line as well.

Day 13 is Ephesians – Philemon day in the second week of the year. Every week is like a journey through the Bible. Every week has an Old Testament side and a New Testament side. The first four days of the week belong to the Old Testament side and express the 39 books of the Old Testament. The remaining three days of the week constitute the New Testament side and express the 27 books of the New Testament. The sixth day of the week is the second day in the New Testament side of the week; and expresses the second nine books of the New Testament. Today is a day to triumph in warfare through instructions. The second 9 books of the N.T are mentoring books. The pastoral epistles of Paul are in this section. This section of the Bible is for “the preparation of the man of God”.

DECREE AND DECLARE: God made us in His image and likeness to rule, have dominion, and impose His will on seasons; as He did with the seven days of creation. He decreed what He wanted for each day. We are to decree what is revealed concerning each day. Today, decree the downfall of the wicked and the lifting and establishment of the just. Today, prophesy and declare war against the enemies of God. Today, prophesy restoration and blessing on God’s people because of the finished work; and prophesy against ungodliness. Today, show that your primary allegiance is to the God of Israel. You are made in the image and likeness of God. This is a day to commemorate and relive the creation of man in the image and likeness of God. Today, make your way back to the Lord. Even if you are not a backslider, you can still get closer to the goal of expressing the Lord – as His image and likeness. Today, stand out for God as His representative and look into your life, and look around, for things and areas that need to be conformed to God’s standards. Today, pray that the kingdom comes, by the word of God, to establish God’s will in your life, family, church, community, nation; and in the nations of the world. Have a happy and tremendously fruitful 13th day of the year!

Day 12: The Mystery of January 12

Nkem Okemiri

May 28, 2020

Welcome to the 12th day of the year! Day 12 is the first of the three major 12th seasons in the year: 12 day, 12th week, and 12th month. Day 12 is the fifth day of the second week of the year; and the 12th day in the first 49 days of the year. The Bible key for understanding the twelfth day or season is the fifth day of creation, the 12th book of the Bible, and the 12th chapters of the Bible.

Day 12 is a fifth day of creation season; because the 12th is the fifth in the second-seven (8-14). As a fifth season day, Day 12 has its basic pattern in the fifth day of creation; and in the fifth book and chapters of the Bible. On the fifth day, God filled the empty waters with abundance of living and moving creatures; and created the birds to fly over the earth. The fifth day of creation is unique for the following reasons: it is –

1. The beginning of movement on the earth – birds and sea creatures.

2. The beginning of flesh and blood in God’s creation.

3. The beginning of voice communication – chirping and singing birds.

4. The beginning of seeing and sensing and breathing.

5. The beginning of blessings. God blessed His creation with fruitfulness and multiplication.

6. The beginning of life in the waters.

7. The beginning of prey and predators. That is the reason for oppression in fifth seasons.

8. The beginning of think-ability in creation.

From the account of the fifth day of creation, we learn that the fifth season is a season of life, movement, freedom, abundance, blessings, visions and revelations, and of reaching depths and heights.

Day 12 is a book of Second Kings day. The book of Second Kings is the twelfth book of the Bible. This is the only book of the Bible that ends in the 25th chapter. It is a story of revival and declension. Elijah’s ministry experiences a revival and he ends up leaving the earth without dying. The first time a man left the earth without dying was in the fifth chapter of Genesis. In the 12th book of the Bible, Elisha’s ministry of power and intervention began; culminating in the anointing of Jehu and destruction of the house of Ahab. There were also reformations of faith in this book; but the book sadly ends with the fall and captivity of Judah. The fifth season is an up-down season if God is disregarded; but if God is honored, it is a down-up season.

Day 12 is a twelfth chapters of the Bible day. The twelfth chapters of the Bible reveal four major things about the 12th season:

1. The 12th season is a season of departures and new beginning. In Genesis 12, Abraham left where he used to be to a new land. In Exodus 12, the power of Pharaoh and Egypt was broken and Israel left Egypt. In First Samuel 12, Samuel delivered his powerful farewell speech to Israel. In First Kings 12, United Israel came to an end as ten tribes walked away from the leadership of House of David. In 2 Kings, the twelfth book of the Bible, Elijah departed this earth. The Nigeria-Biafra war ended January 12, 1970. Military rule ended in Nigeria with the emergence of the 12th national leader, Olusegun Obasanjo, in 1999.

2. The twelfth season is also a season of escapes from death and disease. In Exodus 12, the Passover happened and the firstborns of Israelites escaped death on the night of Passover. In Second Samuel 12, David escapes death for sinning against God but the child dies. In John 12, the Jews planned to kill Lazarus and Jesus. In Acts 12, Peter escaped death at the hands of Herod. Both James and Herod died in this chapter. In Revelation 12, the Man-child was caught up to heaven and escaped death. Death comes in the 12th season, but God grants escape from death in the same season. In the 12th book of the Bible, Elijah departed the earth without dying. In the same book, Elisha raised a dead child back to life; and even in death, his bones raised a dead body that touched them.

3. The wicked and the destroyer fall in the 12th season. In 2 Kings, the 12th book of the Bible, the rule of Jezebel and her daughter Athaliah came to an end. God took vengeance on the house of Ahab and on Baalism in the 12th book of the Bible. In Matthew 12, Jesus cast out a deaf and dumb demon and taught that no man enter the house of a strong man and plunder his goods without binding the strong man. In Luke 12, the rich fool died. In Acts 12, king Herod was eaten by worms and died. In Revelation 12, Satan was thrown out of heaven.

4. The 12th season is for deliverance from famine, barrenness, scarcity, and lack. In Genesis 12, Abraham traveled to Egypt to escape famine. In 2 Kings, the 12th book of the Bible, God used Elisha to war against famine, scarcity, and lack – lack of water, lack of money, lack of children, and lack of food. In Acts 12, Paul and Barnabas brought relief from Antioch to Jerusalem because of anticipated famine.

Day 12 is an Exodus 25-30 day. Within these chapters, Israel gave free-will offerings for the tabernacle. God gave instructions concerning the construction of the tabernacle, the altars, and the garments of the priests. Aaron and his sons were consecrated. The 12th is a season of offerings and sacrifices. It is a season of preparation for the House of God, the House of Prayer, the House of intervention. Without the house of God in a 12th season, misfortunes will go unchecked.

Day 12 is a Matthew – Galatians day in the second week of the year. 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.

ON THIS DAY IN HISTORY

2006 – A stampede during the Stoning of the Devil ritual on the last day at the Hajj in Mina, Saudi Arabia, kills at least 362 Muslim pilgrims. There was no deliverer from death.

2010 – An earthquake in Haiti occurs, killing over 100,000 people and destroying much of the capital Port-au-Prince

2015 – Government raids kill 143 Boko Haram fighters in Kolofata, Cameroon.

Day 11: The Mystery of January 11

Nkem Okemiri

May 28, 2020

Welcome to the 11th day of the year! Day 11 is the fourth day of the second week and the eleventh day in the first 49 days of the year. Day 11 is a fourth-season day; and the Bible keys for understanding the eleventh season are the fourth day of creation, the eleventh book of the Bible, and the eleventh chapters of the Bible.

Day 11 is a fourth day of creation day. God made luminaries on the fourth day creation “… to DIVIDE the day from the night; and let them be for SIGNS AND SEASONS, and for days and years; [15] and let them be for LIGHTS in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth”; He made the luminaries to “give light on the earth, [18] and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness”. The luminaries were made to keep the earth lightened, organized, and running smoothly. The world be chaotic without the luminaries. The fourth season is a fight=back season for darkness and disorder. The fourth book and chapters of the Bible reveal that the tempter and adversary comes in the fourth season. The eleventh day is a fourth-season day.

Day 11 is an eleventh book of the Bible day. The eleventh book of the Bible is First Kings. In this book, Solomon prospered through organization. By wisdom, Solomon administered Israel to greatness. Israel became a center of excellence and a tourist attraction. However, Solomon was not wary of the presence of the tempter. His heart misled him to marry many foreign women; and thereby opened up Israel to idol worship. He was a man of great wisdom; a great brain; but he was overcome by spiritual darkness because he did not use the light from God’s word. Through Solomon, idolatry invaded the land of Israel; and the nation never fully recovered from that scourge. The kingdom divided in two in the season following Solomon’s reign.

Day 11 is an eleventh chapters of the Bible day. The eleventh chapters of the Bible reveal that in the eleventh season, men advance greatly but suffer through mental darkness. It is a season of either divine master-stroke or satanic master-stroke. Without spiritual light, the eleventh season is a season of gross darkness and great deception. The Tower of Babel was started and abandoned in Genesis 11. The master-stroke plague against Pharaoh and Egypt was introduced in Exodus 11. Joshua’s victories against the Canaanite kings and nations is recorded in Joshua 11. The chapter ends with “Then the land rested from war”. In First Samuel 11, the heart of Nahash, king of Ammon, was lifted to his own hurt and defeat. David’s affair with Bathsheba happened in Second Samuel 11. God’s displeasure with Solomon is recorded in First Kings 11. The imprisonment and weariness of John the Baptist is recorded in Matthew 11. Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead in John 11. Hebrews 11 is Faith’s master-stroke chapter. God’s two witnesses appeared in Revelation 11; and in the chapter also, it is announced that the kingdoms of this earth have become the kingdoms of our God and of His Christ. The eleventh season is the season of ‘the last straw that breaks the camel’s back’. It is the season of the best and the worst, the greatest and the least, the highest and the lowest, the first and the last.

Day 11 is an Exodus 19-24 day. Within these six chapters, Israel received the Law at Sinai – light to guide in a world of darkness.

Today is Obadiah – Malachi day in the 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, sensitize your heart and mind with God’s word and be on yourguard against the tempter and his schemes.

Day 150: The Mystery of May 30

Nkem Okemiri

May 28, 2020

Welcome to a new day!

FIVE DESCRIPTIONS OF THE DAY

Today Is

1. May 30 (Clear year); May 29 (Leap year).

2. The third day of the 22nd Week (May 28 – June 3 in a Clear year/ May 27 – June 2 in a Leap year)

3. The third day in fourth 7 Weeks of the year. (May 28 July 15).

4. The 150th day of the year (from January 1). In this post, this day will be called Day 150.

5. A third-season day because it is the third day of the 22nd week of the year.

FIVE BIBLICAL PATTERNS FOR THE DAY

There are five basic biblical patterns for this day:

1. The third day of creation (Genesis 1:9-13)

2. Psalm 150

3. Songs of Solomon 4

4. The third book of the Bible (Leviticus)

5. The third 10 books of the Bible.

1. Day 150 is a third day of creation season. It is the third day of the 22nd week. This is the game-changing day in the 22nd week. On the third day of creation, God separated the dry ground from the waters. He also made vegetation for the sustenance of living creatures He made on the fifth and sixth days. The 150th season is for liberation. As God liberated the earth from the dominion of the waters, to unleash the potential in it, that is how the downtrodden and oppressed are to be liberated at this gate of time. As God called the dry ground to take responsibility for bringing forth vegetation, that is how God calls men to duty in the third season. This is a day to listen to hear the Voice of God. As God brought forth plant life from the dry ground, that is how God acts against death to bring forth, or sustain, life in this season. This is a day of life but the evil one wants to make it a day of death.

2. Day 150 is Ecclesiastes – Amos day in the 22nd week. Going through any week is like going through the Bible. So, every week has an Old Testament side and a New Testament side. The first four days of the week is the Old Testament side and the remaining three days of the week is the New Testament side. The third day of the week expresses the third ten books of the Bible (Song of Songs, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Lamentations, Ezekiel, Daniel, Hosea, and Amos). The prophetic books began in this division. The prophets were men called and separated to hear (receive) the word of the Lord and declare it. This is a day of hearing and declaring the word of the Lord. It is a day of accomplishing tasks and getting results by the word of the Lord.

3. Day 150 is a Book of Leviticus day in the 22nd week and in the fourth 49 days. Leviticus is the third book of the Bible; and is applicable to the third day of the 22nd week. The book of Leviticus is a Book of instructions, blessings, and curses. This is book is about a people specially called to minister to the Lord in the tabernacle. This book is about sacrifices and offerings, priests, festivals, and the sanctuary. It is a Book of dedicated places, people, and things. It is a book of sacrificial service. This is a day of devotion to the Lord.

4. Day 150 is a Song of Songs chapter 4 day in the 22nd week. Song of Songs is the 22nd book of the Bible and is applicable to the 22nd week of the year. The third day of 22nd week expresses the fourth chapter of the 8th-chapter book. This chapter bears witness that Day 150 (or the fourth season) is a time of heavenly inspection. In this 14-verse chapter, the Beloved commends the appearance and love of the Shulamite. He is fascinated and captivated. He spoke of seven parts of her body: eyes, hair, teeth, lips, mouth, neck, breasts. This speaks of thorough investigation. The Lord inspects and investigates His people in fourth seasons. The Shulamite met the standards of her beloved. Pray that you will not fail the tests today – tests of submission to authority (hair), vision (sight), strength (teeth), love (lips), speech and words (mouth), supportive service (neck), and responsible affection (breasts). In this chapter, the Bridegroom admires the beauty of the Bride and praises her. This is a day of inspection, admiration, and praises. As you praise the Lord in word and deed today, the Lord will see the beauty in you and turn His attention towards you – to admire and praise you.

5. Day 150 is a Psalm 150 season. This Psalm is the last chapter of the book of psalms. It represents ‘the last word’ of the psalmist. The fiftieth represents Jubilee; so, ‘150’ is triple jubilee; and the 150th stands for ‘the end of triple jubilee’. That is the reason we should praise God all the way on this day. The 150th day is a day of victory and triumph. We are called to praise the Lord 13 times in this six-verse psalm. So, let us praise the Winning Lord of hosts.

Psalm 150:1-6 says,

“Praise the LORD!

Praise God in His sanctuary;

Praise Him in His mighty firmament!

[2] Praise Him for His mighty acts;

Praise Him according to His excellent greatness!

[3] Praise Him with the sound of the trumpet;

Praise Him with the lute and harp! [4]

Praise Him with the timbrel and dance;

Praise Him with stringed instruments and flutes!

[5] Praise Him with loud cymbals;

Praise Him with clashing cymbals!

[6] Let everything that has breath praise the LORD. Praise the LORD!”

Although this is a season of triumphant celebrations, the enemy wants it to be a season of destructions and mourning.

May 30, 1958 was when the remains of the Unknown (unidentifiable) US soldiers who were killed in World War 2 and the Korean War were buried in the tomb of the Unknown. May 30, 1967, Civil War began in Nigeria. May 30, 1998, 6.5 magnitude earthquake killed over 4000 in Afghanistan. Pray that this day, will be indeed, a day of triumphant celebrations; and not a season of mourning.

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 150th season!
