10 days of trial
 
Sunday, September 25th would be 10 days ahead of October 4th.  I know this is a little out of context, but could be a message from the Lord nonetheless:
 
Revelation 2:10 (New International Version)
10Do not be afraid of what you are about to suffer. I tell you, the devil will put some of you in prison to test you, and you will suffer persecution for ten days. Be faithful, even to the point of death, and I will give you the crown of life.

 I believe that at times the prison may not be a physical one, but spiritual, emotional or otherwise.  If October 4th is a big date, then we may indeed be standing trial up until then (I know personally I am).
