Welcome to the 62nd day of the year. Day 62 is the sixth day of the ninth week; and the 13th day in the second 49 days of the year. Day 62 is March 3 in a clear year and March 2 in a leap year. It is the third day of the third month. The Bible patterns for understanding the 62nd day are 1) the sixth day of creation narrative; 2) the 62nd book of the Bible; 3) the 62nd chapters of the Bible; 4) the sixth four chapters (21-24) of First Samuel, the 9th book of the Bible.
Day 62 is a sixth day of creation day in the 9th week. God made land animals on the sixth day. However, He also made man in His image and after His likeness on the sixth day. The made ‘the living creature’ in the image and likeness of the Living Creator. He made man to dominate and bear rule on earth. He made man to be the agent of God on earth. Alignment with God and cooperation with Him is what He expects in the sixth season. Day 62 is a day to pursue the realization of the full and original intention of the Creator. It is a season to express God and bring all things under the rulership and dominion of God. Day 62 is a kingdom of God day. It is a season of conflict between the forces of godliness and the forces of ungodliness.
Day 62 is a First Samuel 24-27 day in the 9th week. In this sixth section chapters of First Samuel, the search for David’s life, and the intensity of Saul’s hatred for him, had so increased that David could no longer stay in Israel. In the 24th chapter, David spared Saul’s life when He could have killed him. That was the height of godliness in David’s life. In the 25th chapter Abigail saved him from killing Nabal; an Israelite. Samuel died in this chapter. Nabal died of himself in this chapter also. David married Abigail the wife of Nabal and Ahinoam of Jezreel. Saul had given his daughter, Michal, David’s wife to someone else. In the 26th chapter, David spared Saul’s life at the wilderness of Ziph. That was the second time he was saved from shedding blood. In the 27th chapter, he returned to Achish seeking asylum. He was given a place at Ziklag to live with his men and their families. There, he was killing Philistines but pretended to be working for their king. First Samuel 24-27 reveals that succeeding in the 62nd season is a matter of receiving and following divine guidance. David was surrounded by death; but seeking God and listening to His voice preserved him.
Day 62 is a book-of-First-John day. The 62nd book of the Bible, First John, is about the recovery of the life and nature of God in God’s children. It is about manifesting the life, Light, and love of God. The only way to prove we have fellowship with God is to walk in the light. The way to prove we are alive in God is to love the brethren. The reason it is necessary to manifest the life, light, and love, nature of God in the 62nd season is because of the tendency of the people of the world to manifest the death, darkness, and hate, nature of the evil one in the same season.
Day 62 is a 62nd-chapters-of-the-Bible day. The 62nd chapters of the Bible reveal that the 62nd season is for pressing and holding on to God till the counsel of God is established, recovered, and restored. It is a season of action to receive the will of God. It is a season of recovery and restoration. In the 62nd season, we have a sure vital part to play in taking delivery of God’s plan for our lives. Though God may have given us the city, we must play an active role in possessing it. Psalm 62 is about waiting for the delivery of an expectation from God. It shows the 62nd day is a season to expect and pursue the fulfillment of God’s promises. Psalm 62:1,5 says, “Truly my soul silently waits for God; From Him comes my salvation. [5] My soul, wait silently for God alone, For my expectation is from Him”. This sounds like what David would pray as he hid in caves, from Saul, to save his life. He trusted in the One Who initiated his anointing to bring him to the throne. He rejected the cheap way of killing Saul. Isaiah 62 is about the quest for the restoration of Zion and Jerusalem. Isaiah 62:1,6-7 says, “For Zion’s sake I will not hold My peace, And for Jerusalem’s sake I will not rest, Until her righteousness goes forth as brightness, And her salvation as a lamp that burns. [6] I have set watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem; They shall never hold their peace day or night. You who make mention of the LORD, do not keep silent, [7] And give Him no rest till He establishes And till He makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth”.
Day 62 is Ephesians – Philemon day in the ninth week. Every week has an Old Testament side and a New Testament side. Day 62 is the second day in the New Testament side of the 9th week. The second nine books of the New Testament are applicable to the second on this New Testament side of the week. The second 9 books of the New Testament are books of instruction amid spiritual warfare from insubordination, heresies, and persecutions. Day 62 is a day of intense spiritual conflict; but God guarantees victory as we follow His Wisdom. 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, get ready to subdue the enemy through godliness. Give attention to His Word and be guided by Him – not your fears. Happy 62nd day!
