TODAY’S PROPHETIC NUMBER
October 24, 2023 – 10/24/2023
10 – Perfect Order
24 – Perfect Government Made Manifest
Luke 10:24 (NKJV) – “For I tell you that many prophets and kings have desired to see what you see, and have not seen it, and to hear what you hear, and have not heard it.
There are promises and fulfillments that we are living in right now that those who have gone before us looked toward the future with hope for. We are living in the harvest they planted; we are sowing where they reaped. The fore-fathers of our faith remained steadfast in faith and hope, trusting in the promises of the Lord, even when they didn’t get to see it for themselves.
Declaration: The Lord has established my boundaries within space, time, and matter pleasantly and full of hope. I am blessed to see His promises unfolding! I am living in the age that the great cloud of witnesses longed to see, and Heaven is championing me to be victorious and an overcomer! In Jesus’ name, Amen!
STEWARDS OF THE PROMISE
It is not an accident that we find ourselves alive right now during the year 2023. It’s not coincidental that we happened to be born in this age of technology and Biblical prophecy being played out right before our eyes. The Lord intentionally placed us within this specific timeline because He trusts us to redeem the time and finish well.
Ephesians 5:15-16 (NKJV) – See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
The book of Hebrews contains a powerful chapter known as the Hall of Faith, and right at the end, it sums up the loyal & resolute faith of Biblical characters we grew up reading about, Hebrews 11:39-40, “And all these, having obtained a good testimony through faith, did not receive the promise, God having provided something better for us, that they should not be made perfect apart from us.”
They stewarded the things that the Lord has entrusted us with present day! We are in partnership with them because their perfection is not complete until we finish things up down here! Through the sacrifice and victory of Jesus, we have been equipped to see His enemies be made His footstool! (Psalm 110)
The message of the Bible–our manual–our warranty from the manufacturer, is The Kingdom. The disciples asked Jesus what shall we pray for? He said, “Pray,” that means “desire” for what God has always wanted.
“Our Father who is in Heaven (the unseen) Hallowed (holy) be Your name.” That means you have integrity. You will get what you want. Jesus said, “Our Father who is not on earth, You are full of integrity. You’re holy. You will get what You desire. Your Kingdom, Kings-dominion come, Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Let what You want in the unseen be seen on the scene.
The Kingdom of God shall be within us, empowering us in what He has strategically and intentionally placed us within this time & season to do. Who are we? We contain the Spirit, the likeness of God. We contain the unseen Kingdom within our dirt bodies. We are leaders, managers, rulers, stewards, kings and priests before our God! We will see His will made manifest on this earth, and we will be perfected in Christ Jesus!
