WORD FOR OCTOBER | 2026 | JOB 22:29 | WHEN MEN ARE CAST DOWN, THERE SHALL BE A LIFTING UP! | CHIMDI OHAHUNA

What do you do when everything around you seems to be going down, but God is saying there is still a lifting?

In this powerful Word for the Month for October 2026, we are taken into a profound study of Job 22:29: “When men are cast down, then thou shalt say, There is lifting up; and he shall save the humble person.” This message reveals that seasons of pressure, misunderstanding, delay, opposition, and apparent setbacks do not have to be the end of your story. There can still be a lifting.

Through the experience of Job, this teaching examines what happens when people interpret our circumstances without understanding what God is doing. It highlights a powerful truth: people can speak right words in the wrong way, and wisdom requires learning to separate sensitivity from sentimentality. Rather than allowing emotions, assumptions, accusations, or the opinions of others to determine our response, we are challenged to listen for the truth God is revealing.

The teaching also confronts the danger of irresponsibility, especially the failure to appropriate the finished work of Christ. It calls believers to take responsibility for their walk with God, their understanding of His Word, and their response to the realities of their faith.

One of the strongest lessons in this message is that restoration begins with revelation. Before God restored Job, He dealt with Job's understanding. Before the lifting becomes evident externally, God may first be bringing illumination internally. The message therefore challenges us not merely to seek restoration, but to seek the revelation that will enable us to sustain what God restores.

You will also discover why returning to God, humility, overcoming fear, developing spiritual understanding, and knowing the goodness of God are essential to experiencing the lifting He has promised.

If you have felt cast down, misunderstood, delayed, opposed, discouraged, or forgotten, this October Word is a timely reminder: your present condition does not have the final word. God can lift you. God can vindicate you. God can restore you.

Listen prayerfully, receive the Word, examine your understanding, and position yourself for the lifting God has prepared.

This October, don't remain cast down. There shall be a lifting up!

WAITING ON JESUS: EXPECT GOD, LOOK TO JESUS

What does it really mean to wait on the Lord?

In this powerful episode of the Miracles of Jesus Bible Study Series on the GRACELIFECOMI Podcast, Chimdi Ohahuna teaches that waiting on God is not passive inactivity—it is a posture of expectation, steadfastness, and focused attention on Jesus.

Drawing from the meaning of wait upon, the teaching explores the importance of expecting God to come through, fulfill His Word, make a way in difficult circumstances, and bring His purposes to manifestation. When our expectations are rightly placed in God, we can stand our ground without becoming spiritually unstable or “wavy.”
The teaching also examines the example of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, whose confidence in God remained firm even when they could not predict the outcome. Their declaration reveals the heart of genuine faith: God is able to deliver, but even if He does not deliver us in the way we expect, we will still stand with Him.

But waiting on Jesus involves more than expecting Him—it also means looking unto Him.

Through Hebrews 12:2 and a study of the Greek concept aphoraō, Chimdi explains that looking unto Jesus means deliberately taking our eyes off the situations and challenges competing for our attention and fixing our focus on Christ. What we continually look at influences what we become.
Challenges may demand your attention, but they do not deserve your focus.

Jesus does.

This episode challenges you to stop allowing problems, fear, circumstances, or the pressures of life to dominate your thoughts. Instead, learn to expect God, wait on Him, and continually look to Jesus—the Author and Finisher of your faith.

In this episode, discover:

• What it truly means to wait upon the Lord.

• Why expectation is essential to waiting on God.

• How to remain steadfast without becoming spiritually “wavy.”

• What Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego teach us about unwavering faith.

• Why trying to force your own way out of a situation can undermine your trust in God.

• What it means to “look unto Jesus.”

• How your focus influences your spiritual life and character.

• Why the devil wants to capture your attention through challenges.

• How to move your eyes away from circumstances and intentionally focus on Christ.

• Why Jesus—not your problem—is the ultimate focus of your faith.

You may be surrounded by challenges, but you don't have to be controlled by them.

Listen, learn, and allow this teaching to redirect your expectation and your focus back to Jesus.

DECLARE LIGHT | WHEN MEN ARE CAST DOWN, THERE SHALL BE A LIFTING UP! |October 2026 | CHIMDI OHAHUNA

Scripture: Job 22:29; 2 Corinthians 12:

9

What happens when you are doing what is right, yet everything around you seems to be pushing you down?

What do you do when you are misunderstood, wrongly judged, humiliated, delayed, or faced with circumstances that appear to contradict what God has said concerning your life?

In this powerful October edition of DECLARE LIGHT, Chimdi Ohahuna brings a timely prophetic word from Job 22:29: “When men are cast down, then thou shalt say, There is lifting up…”

This message reveals a powerful spiritual principle: what happens to you is not as important as how you respond to what happens to you. When circumstances attempt to bring you low, you can answer them with faith, confidence, and the revelation of God’s Word.

Through the story of Job, this teaching examines the difference between sensitivity and sentimentality, the danger of judging situations without understanding, and the importance of listening for the truth even when it is presented imperfectly.

You will also discover why revelation must come before lasting restoration. God does not merely want to restore what was lost; He wants to give you the understanding that will prevent you from returning to the same place of destruction.

Chimdi also explores Job’s journey from fear and limited understanding into revelation, vindication, and restoration, and how this speaks directly to believers who may currently feel cast down.

The message is clear: your present low place does not have the final word.

What looks like humiliation can become elevation.

What looks like shame can become glory.

What the enemy intended for evil can become a testimony of God’s goodness.

As this new month begins, receive this prophetic encouragement: there is lifting up!

This episode also includes a powerful time of prayer for healing, miracles, supernatural breakthroughs, open doors, restoration, divine opportunities, conception, contracts, jobs, businesses, and other areas where you are trusting God for intervention.

Listen, pray along, receive the Word, and step into October with confidence.

You may have been cast down, but you will not remain there. THERE IS A LIFTING UP!

BIBLE STUDY| MIRACLES OF JESUS SERIES.|THE FIFTH MIRACLE OF JESUS pt.48| THE POWER OF RETREAT|JESUS WALKING ON WATER| CHIMDI OHAHUNA

What happens when you try to sail through life without Jesus in the boat?

In this powerful episode of the Miracles of Jesus Bible Study Series on the GRACELIFECOMI Podcast, Chimdi Ohahuna continues the study surrounding Jesus walking on water and draws out profound lessons about what it means to have Christ with us through the storms of life.

This episode explores the dangers of sailing without Jesus, including becoming vulnerable to the “waves” of life, constantly being overwhelmed by challenges, and moving from being a miracle worker to a miracle seeker. The teaching also challenges believers to recognize that Christ is not someone we should continually seek outside ourselves, Christ in us is the hope of glory and the source of the miraculous life.

But the teaching goes further.

Chimdi explores the meaning of “wait upon the Lord” from Isaiah 40:31, examining the Hebrew concept of qavah, to bind or twist together. Waiting on God is presented not merely as passively expecting an answer, but as a process through which God works in us, bringing our thoughts, words, character, and actions into practical alignment with our spiritual identity.

You will also discover why life’s challenges can become part of the process of spiritual maturity. Rather than focusing only on what God has allowed, this teaching encourages us to focus on what God is doing through the situation. The challenge may be temporary, but the purpose behind it can produce lasting transformation.

This episode will challenge you to ask:

Am I focused on the problem, or on God's purpose?

Am I waiting for Jesus, or trying to fast-track His process?

Is Christ truly in my boat?

Listen, learn, reflect, and allow the Word of God to reshape the way you understand your storms, your waiting season, your walk with Christ and the Miracles of Jesus, because the miracle is not only what Jesus does; it is also what He is forming in us.

DECLARE LIGHT | Prophetic Prayer |September 2026| GOD ARISES | Psalm 68:1| Chimdi Ohahuna

As September gives way to October, step into this new season with a powerful prophetic prayer from Psalm 68:1 (KJV): “Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered: let them also that hate him flee before him.”

In this transition-week episode of DECLARE LIGHT, Chimdi Ohahuna takes us into the meaning and power behind the declaration “Let God arise.” Rather than presenting God as though He needs to be activated or persuaded to act, this powerful Scripture reveals the sovereignty of God, God arises because He is God.

Through a fascinating look at key Hebrew words in the verse, this episode explores:

* What Psalm 68:1 truly means by “God arises.”

* The significance of Elohim and the nature of God’s divine authority.

* The meaning of “enemies” and those who position themselves against God and His purposes.

* How God can cause opposition to scatter, disperse, shatter, and flee.

* Why hatred of God, His wisdom, and what He loves ultimately leads to self-destruction.

* The confidence believers can have when God arises concerning their situations.

As we move from one month into another, this is a timely reminder that you do not have to fight every battle by your own strength. When God arises, opposition cannot remain in its place.

Receive this prophetic prayer over your week and enter October with faith, confidence, rejoicing, and expectation.

This week, may God arise concerning you. May every opposition be scattered, every adversary flee, and may you walk into your testimony with rejoicing!

WAITING ON GOD IS NOT WASTED TIME, BUT THE PAIN, PROCESS & POWER OF RENEWAL

What if the season you are calling “delay” is actually the season God is using to renew you?

In this powerful episode of the Miracles of Jesus Bible Study Series, Chimdi Ohahuna takes us further into the biblical principle of waiting on the Lord, revealing that waiting is not passive inactivity, it is a divine process of preparation, transformation and renewal.

Through the picture of the eagle renewing its strength, this teaching explores the often-overlooked realities that accompany spiritual renewal: pain, sacrifice, desperate decisions, discipline, patience, isolation and dependence on God.

You will discover why God may sometimes allow you to enter seasons of isolation, not to destroy you, but to remove what has become ineffective and prepare you for something new. The teaching also highlights the ministry of the Holy Spirit as the Comforter, strengthening and sustaining believers through the painful processes that precede manifestation.

This episode challenges the believer to stop running from the process and begin to understand what God may be accomplishing through it.

In this episode, you will learn:

* Why you must wait for the Lord before embarking on major journeys or decisions.

* Why genuine renewal can involve pain and sacrifice.

* The difference between torture and discipline.

* Why desperate decisions must be accompanied by spiritual discipline.

* How God can use seasons of isolation for renewal and preparation.

* Why old things sometimes have to die before the new can emerge.

* How the Holy Spirit comforts believers while they wait for manifestation.

* Why storms can reveal the strength and transformation God has already produced in you.

* Why there is often another season of waiting even after the miracle comes.

* How waiting on God can produce a new and better version of you.

If you are currently waiting for an answer, direction, breakthrough, restoration or a new season, this teaching will challenge you to see your waiting differently.

Your waiting may not be a sign that God has forgotten you. It may be the process through which God is preparing you.

DECLARE LIGHT | STRONG IN THE LORD | Prophetic Prayer | SEPTEMBER 2026 | Chimdi Ohahuna

What does it really mean to **“be strong in the Lord, and in the power of His might”**? In this powerful episode of DECLARE LIGHT, Chimdi Ohahuna takes us into Ephesians 6:10 and reveals that biblical strength is not primarily about trying harder, it is about **receiving strength from the Lord and being strengthened by His power.**

Paul’s instruction, *“Be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might,”* carries a profound truth: our strength has a source, and that source is God Himself.

Exploring key Greek words from the verse—including **endunamo**, **kurios**, **kratos**, and **ischus**—this prophetic prayer brings fresh understanding to what it means to live consciously in the strength, authority, might, and power of the Lord.

The focus is not simply on **how strong we can become**, but on becoming deeply conscious of **WHO we are united with**.

Because we belong to the Lord, His strength becomes the foundation of our confidence. His might becomes our assurance. His power becomes our source.

In this week's prayer, we declare that the consciousness of our union with the Lord will **indwell us, overwhelm us, saturate us, and take charge of our being.** We pray for a deeper awareness that the Lord is Almighty and all-powerful—and that whatever cannot happen to Him cannot ultimately define our lives.

As this consciousness grows within us, may fear give way to confidence, weakness give way to strength, and uncertainty give way to faith.

**Go into this week rejoicing. Go testifying. Go conscious of the Lord, His might, and His power!**

🎧 Listen, pray along, and share this episode with someone who needs to be reminded that **their strength does not come from themselves—it comes from the Lord.**
