(120) THIRD DAY OR THREE DAYS

There are numerous times the “Third Day” is mentioned in our bible. If you can recall in one of my topics, I had mentioned Three, Seven and Twelve are biblical numbers and they mean something. Anyway, let’s get back to the word Third Day or Three Days. Amen! If you have your bible with you, you may follow along with me. My scriptures verses are taken from (NLT) New Living Translation bible. This Golden Message was from Sr. Pastor Tim Waugh from Crossnet Ministries on (4/6/11) Wednesday Evening Service. I had researched and gathered only the third or three days scriptures written in the bible, excluding all scriptures with three years. There may be much more written in the bible, depending on the interpretation of different bible translations.

1) Genesis 22: 4 tell us, on the third day of the journey, Abraham saw the place in the distance.
2) Genesis 42:17-18 17 Joseph put his brothers in prison for three days and 18 on the third day Joseph said to them, I am a God fearing man. If you do as I say, you will live.
3) Genesis 40: 20 tell us Pharaoh’s birthday came three days later, and he gave banquets for all his officials and household staff.
4) Exodus 10:22 tells us Moses lifted his hands toward heaven, and there was deep darkness over the entire land for three days.
5) Exodus 3:18 Let us go on the three-day journey into the wilderness to offer sacrifices to the Lord our God.
6) Exodus 19:16 tells us on the morning of the third day, there was a powerful thunder and lightning storm, and a dense cloud came down upon the mountain. There was a long blast from the ram’s horn, and all the people trembled.
7) Genesis 1:12-13 the land was filled with seed bearing plants and trees, and their seeds produced plants and trees of like kind. And god that is good. 13 This all happened on the third day.
8) Matt. 12:40 for as Jonah was in the in the belly of the great fish for three days and three nights, so I son of man, will be in the heart of the earth for three days and nights.
9) Act 10:40-41 tells us God raised Jesus to life three days later. Then god allowed him to appear, 41 not to the general public,* but to us whom God had chosen beforehand to be his witnesses. We were those who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead.
10) Numbers 19:12 on the third and seventh days the ceremonially clean person must sprinkle the water on those who unclean.
11) Joshua 2:16-22 Then, since Rahab’s house was built into the city wall, she let them down “Hide there for three days until the men who are searching for you have return; then go on your way. 22 The spies went up into the hill country and stay there for three days.
12) Joshua 1:11, 3:2-3 in three days you will cross the Jordan River and take possession of the land the Lord your god has given you. In Joshua 3:2-3, three days later, the Israelite leaders went through the camp. 3 giving these instructions to the people:
13) 2 Kings 20:5 go back to Hezekiah, the leader of my people. Tell him, “this is what the lord, the god of your ancestor David, says: I have heard your prayer and seen your tears. I will heal you, and three days from now you will get out of bed and go to the Temple of the Lord.
14) Samuel 30:1 Three days later, when David and his men arrived home at their town of Ziklag, they found that the Amalekites had made a raid into the Negev and had burned Ziklag to the ground.
15) 2 Samuel 1: 2 on third day after David’s return, a man arrived from the Israelite battlefront. He had torn his clothes and out dirt on his head to show that he was in mourning. He fell to the ground before David in deep respect. (Amalekite who killed Saul to put Saul out his misery)

I pray this message is very informative to you.
