WHEN MEN ARE CAST DOWN, THERE SHALL BE A LIFTING UP!

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!

Foreign. Jesus. Amen and amen. I want to welcome you especially to this great week. It's the week the Lord has made and we rejoice and we're glad indeed. This happens to be the first Sunday of the month of October, 2026, and it's a glorious week we're beginning with. I'm going to be praying with the Word for the month which the Lord has given to us, and that is Job 22:29. Job chapter 22, verse 29 says, when men are cast down, then thou shalt see there is a lift not. And he shall save the humble person. Hallelujah to Jesus. Amen and Amen. The phrase when men are cast down is one word in the Hebrew. So, and that's word. And shafir means to be or become low, to sin, to be humble, to be abased. Actually it entails to be humiliated, to be set in a lower place, an abasement, to make low or to sit low. Amen to Jesus. So basically, to be cast down means to be, to sing, to be humble, to be abated. You know, anything that makes you become low, anything that makes you sink, anything that makes you humiliated in life, anything that makes you abased. Yeah, to be cast. That means when such things happen to you and the end result comes out. Amen to Jesus. He says, then thou shalt see the face thou shall see is one word also. And that's the Hebrew word amah. And ama means to say, to speak, to utter amen to Jesus. And it actually entails to, to say, to answer. So when you are saying, it means you are not only just speaking, you're also responding. Are we together? I like that word also. You're also responding. So when situations that make men abase, make them low, you know, make them humiliated, come towards you, you have the right. To do what? To say. You get what I'm saying? To say what you want to answer the situation. Because people don't just get appealed. They don't just get belated. People don't just get caught down for nothing. Something results to that. And basically in the life we are, no matter whether you are born again or you're not born again, same situations will happen to all of us. Abraham was a friend of God. And when there was famine, famine also affected him. Are you know what I'm saying? Yeah. Same situations will happen. Same way economic situations are happening to every one of us. But what happens to you is not what matter, it's what you say to what happens to you that matters. See, that shall see. So it's to answer. It also means to think, to say in one's heart. So not just answering also what thinking all right means to think all right. So not only think in your mind, but also say it in your mind means to command, it means to intend, and it also means to boast. I like that. It means to act proudly. Amen to Jesus. It means to avow and to avow. Amen to Jesus. Thou shall say there is lifting up. There is lifting up is also one word in the Hebrew, and it is geba. And geba means pride. A lifting up. We could see that the word say there also has to be. To boast. Is that also to answer to be. You know, to be. To. To. To avouch. To be proud. In your comments, in your statements, are we together? And so he says, thou shalt say there is lifting. In other words, thou shalt say there is pride. Thou shalt say there is lifting up. Amen to Jesus. Because you post about the L, no matter the situations that come, you post and you answer them with what you want. Humiliating situation come, you answer them with uplifting situation. Are we together casting lo situation. Come, you answer them with what uplifting? What situation? Praise the Lord forever more says, thou shall say there's a lifting up and it shall save the humble person. When you say there's a little and then what does it do? It saves the humble person. So this pride here, this little note that entails pride here is not actually pride that no, a proud person displays. Are we together? It's a. Is a pride that a humble person displays. How does that apply? How would a humble person display pride? Amen to Jesus. So now he shall save what? He shall save the humble person. The word humble here is the Hebrew word shark. And it needs to be low to be lowly. Praise God forever more. The word person here is a Hebrew word ayim. And I, Amen to Jesus. Praise God forevermore. Hallelujah to Jesus. How can a humble person be proud? Are you getting me? How can a humble person be boastful? How can a humble person be. Be lifted? This is the solution. This is how it works. This is how it works. Second Corinthians, chapter 12, verse 9. He says, and he said unto me, my grace is sufficient for thee, for my strength is made perfect in weakness. And this is what apostle Paul says. He says most gladly, therefore will I rather glory. The word glory there in the Greek actually means to be proud. It means to be boastful. I get what I'm Saying, so we're going back to the same word. Therefore will I glory in what? In my infirmities. What infirmity is there in the Greek means weaknesses. Are we together? It says that the power of Christ may rest upon me. So how can a humble, a low person be proud? A low person becomes proud by glorying in the seemingly weaknesses. Those things they are bringing to you that they say they are going to make you look, I get what I'm saying. Those things that come against you, you glory in them. Are we together by focusing in the Lord Jesus and the grace of God remains sufficient for you. And you'll be lifted instead of coming what this month as we glory in the seemingly weaknesses that are coming at us, the financial weaknesses that the challenges, all the things that seem to be ths in our flesh because Apostle Paul was facing ths in his flesh as we glory in them and focus on the grace of God, we shall be lifted. We shall be lifted. We shall be lifted. We shall be lifted. The grace to glory in the weaknesses. They say, you don't have money, but you are saying thank you Jesus. They say you are this, you are that, you are saying thank you Jesus. The grace to glory in the weaknesses and focus on the strength of Jesus. That grace is released to us and we maximize it in the name of Jesus. As we do that. As we do that, we are lifted up. What the enemy meant for humiliation for us, we bring to little upliftment in the name of Jesus. Joseph said, you meant it for evil, but God turn it around for good. What the enemy meant for disgrace for us, we bring grace to us. What the enemy meant for shame for us, we bring glory for us. Because this month we are glory in that seemingly weakness by being humble, trusting in the Lord and we are being lifted up in the name of Jesus. That is our portion. This week we shall experience the lifting ups it shall experience the lifting up in the name of the Lord Jesus. Go for this week testifying and comfort testifying. Go for celebrating and comfort celebrating once again. I want to encourage you to subscribe to Grace LifeComing podcast on Spotify. God bless you and grace to you.
