Title: Receive the help of God.
"Joseph is a fruitful bough, A fruitful bough by a well; His branches run over the wall.
The archers have bitterly grieved him, Shot at him and hated him.
But his bow remained in strength, and the arms of his hands were made strong
by the hands of the Mighty God of Jacob (From there is the Shepherd, the Stone of Israel),
by the God of your father who will help you, and by the Almighty who will bless you with blessings of heaven above,
blessings of the deep that lies beneath, blessings of the breasts and of the womb.” Genesis 49:22-25 NKJV.
As you bear fruit for the kingdom of heaven, you need your bow (your offensive weapon launch pad)
and your hands which operate it, to remain strong and to be continually strengthened
with might in the inner man by His Spirit.
Joseph's bow remained in strength and the arms of his hands were made strong by the hands of the Mighty God of Jacob.
His word says in Ephesians 3:16: That He would grant you according to the riches of His glory,
to be strengthened with might by His Spirit in the inner man.
You need strength of conviction (inner man), strength of body (divine health and protection)
as well as strength in resources to accomplish the mission before you.
Strength of conviction is the most critical need-when you receive that, the rest follows.
Point of Reflection:
The apostle Paul said in Acts 26:22-23 NKJV:
"Having therefore received the help of God to this day I stand,
witnessing to both small and great saying no other thing but those which Moses
and the prophets said would come to pass that the Christ would suffer,
that He would be the first to rise from the dead, and would proclaim light to the Jewish people and to the Gentiles.”
Yes absolutely, you also need to receive, continuously and continually the help of Almighty God. Glory be to God forevermore.
Jesus Christ said to a group of fearful, timid and carnal disciples in Luke 24: 46-49 NKJV:
“Thus it is written, and thus it was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise from the dead the third day,
and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in His name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
And you are witnesses of these things.
Behold, I send the Promise of My Father upon you;
but tarry in the city of Jerusalem until you are endued with power from on high."
The power from on high was the game changer, nothing else became the same.
Even Simon Peter who had denied Jesus Christ three times within earshot could stand up
before a large crowd to proclaim salvation through Jesus Christ.
The Holy Spirit charged their strength of conviction, it made the word of God real and alive inside them,
and the disciples were totally changed.
Do you desire to be strengthened by the Holy Spirit?
Do you desire to receive the abundance of His grace for service?
When you ready-
Prayer of consecration:
Heavenly Father in the name of Jesus Christ, I thank you for your grace and mercy.
Thank you for the gift of eternal life in Jesus Christ my Lord.
Today I confess the risen Jesus Christ as my Lord. I reject, denounce and renounce
every working of the enemy satan and his demons upon my life.
I ask you Father in the name of Jesus Christ, to fill and empower me by your Holy Spirit right now.
I receive the abundant outpouring of your Spirit upon my life in the name of Jesus Christ.
I receive your grace and wisdom for service in your house.
Thank you that my bow will remain in strength and the arms of my hands
will continue to be strengthened by your Holy Spirit every day.
In the name of Jesus Christ I pray. Amen.

Year in Focus:
2025 The Year of the Overcomer.
His word says in 1 John 2:12-14:I write to you, little children,
Because your sins are forgiven you for His name’s sake.
13 I write to you, fathers, because you have known Him who is from the beginning.
I write to you, young men, because you have overcome the wicked one.
I write to you, little children, because you have known the Father.
14 I have written to you, fathers, because you have known Him who is from the beginning.
I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God abides in you,
And you have overcome the wicked one.
To overcome the wicked one you need the word of God to dwell in you richly, you need to know Him who
was from the beginning (to know God) and you need strong conviction regarding His promises to you. These are the three critical attributes of an overcomer.
He also says: Look among the nations and watch—Be utterly astounded!
For I will work a work in your days, which you would not believe, though it were told you. (Habakkuk 1:5)
Almighty God wants to work a work in our day, in your day, in the work of the Ministry and in your own life,
which you will not believe even if it is told you. For you to be a part of what He is doing, you need to acquire and grow in the three critical attributes of an overcomer.
He says further:
Then the Lord answered me and said:
“Write the vision and make it plain on tablets, that he may run who reads it.
3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it will speak, and it will not lie.
Though it tarries, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry. (Habakkuk 2:2-3).
He says write the vision and make it plain upon tables that he may run who reads it.
As you enter another phase in your walk with God and as we enter a new phase in our calling as Planet Ministries, remember the vision is for an appointed time.
That time is nigh. Wait for it, it will not be late by one second. Remember Genesis 18:10-14; Genesis 21: 1-2 and Exodus 12:40-41.
a) What you need to know:
We are moving into a period of accomplishing the vision which Almighty God has set before us.
There is in the calendar of God something called the fullness of time.
The vision is for an appointed time and that time is nigh.
You need the knowledge of the Father and His essential attributes, a knowledge of the word of God- you need the word of God to dwell in you richly
(see also Colossians 3:16) and you also need strength of conviction.
As these three attributes increase in you, they will make you to become an overcomer of the wicked one.
b) What you need to understand (or have a revelation of):
1. There is in the calendar of God something called the fullness of time.
2. As we enter the fullness of time you need to continue waiting upon God.
3. You need a revelation of the essential attributes of God.
That He is good to you all the time. He is holy, that means He gets it right all the time ( Leviticus 11:44-45; His mercies are new every morning (Lamentations 3:23);
His loving kindness is better than life (Psalms 63:3), He is faithful (1 Thessalonians 5:24; Genesis 28:15; 1 Kings 8:56; Numbers 23:19-20; Isaiah 46:9-11),
He is righteous and He is just (Psalms 89:14). He promises to go before you. He says He will not fail you. (Joshua 1:5; Deuteronomy 31:6, 8;
1 Chronicles 28:20; Psalms 89:33-35).
c) What you need to do: Activities of 2025:
Run with the vision. Remember we are:
1. Witnessing the love of Jesus Christ and making disciples across the nations. (Matthew 28:18-20). Use every avenue available to you to send the message of the gospel.
2.We are praying and interceding to the God of the harvest to send labourers into the harvest. (Matthew 9:37-38; 1Timothy 2:1-5). Take time to pray.
3. We are faithful stewards of time, the mysteries of God and of substance. (Luke 12:42-44; Luke 16:10-12; 1 Corinthians 4:1-2; 1 Peter 4:10). Prayerfully examine your stewardship of time, mysteries
of God and substance.
4. We are light to the world- dispensing darkness- let your light so shine that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven. (Matthew 5:14-16).
5. We are salt, condiment to the earth to give flavour and fight the unsavoury works of the enemy satan ( Matthew 5:13).
6. We release the fragrance of the knowledge of Jesus Christ - God wants to diffuse through you the fragrance, perfume of the knowledge of Jesus Christ as you allow the fruit of the Holy Spirit to
manifest in your life. ( 2 Corinthians 14-15).
d) In all this remember to have your own personal agenda with God as you stand on His promises.
He says in John 16:24: Until now you have asked nothing in My name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full.
He says in John 15:7: If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you.
He says in John 14:13-14:
And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
14 If you ask anything in My name, I will do it.
He also says in John 15:16: You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you.
Remember, we have been given exceedingly great and precious promises that by these we may be partakers of divine nature. ( 2 Peter 1:4, John 16:24).
In this year of the overcomer, as you run with the vision, remember to have a personal prayer agenda with God.
Keep a prayer diary and tick things off, as He answers your prayers.
We love you as we invite you to be counted among the overcomers of the wicked one in 2025 and beyond.
As you run with the vision, we are praying for you and wish you a 2025 filled with the victory that comes from God.
In the service of Jesus Christ.
Apostle Dr Max and Joyce Matonhodze.
