Title: Acknowledge and Celebrate His Grace.
“And of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace.
For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.” John 1:16-17 NKJV.
The word of God teaches us that we are saved by grace (undeserved, unmerited favour borne out of activity on the side of God).
It is important to always acknowledge the grace of God upon your life.
Point of Reflection:
His word declares in Ephesians 2:8-9 NKJV:
For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves;
it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.”
You are saved, as a result of the gift that God has given you in Jesus Christ, you need to believe on Jesus Christ,
that He died for you and rose again.
You are not saved as a result of your works, what you did or did not do-
your salvation is by faith in Jesus Christ alone- your salvation is a gift of God.
Please note that our salvation comes to us as a result of Almighty God's exceeding riches in mercy, love and kindness towards us (Ephesians 2:7).
A gift is given for free- otherwise if you work for it- it is no longer a gift-it becomes wages.
Your salvation is not because of what you did- no- it is because of what He did for you-
what God did for you in Jesus Christ.
You receive it by faith - believing on Jesus Christ and what He did, yes by faith and faith in Jesus Christ alone -
that He did it for you-Jesus was manifested to take away your sin- wipe them out altogether and completely-
in Christ you have a clean slate- God has no record of your sin anymore- past, present and future-
He put them all on His own Son Jesus Christ- and He declares you are now righteous in Jesus Christ.
His word says further that we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works. (Ephesians 2:10).
His word further says He is at work in us both to will and to work for His good pleasure (Philippians 2:13).
Therefore we cannot boast because He did it all in us and through us.
In other words He provided Jesus Christ to suffer and die for us.
That was an act of His grace - His favour- then He drew us to Himself-
He made us to want to be saved by a working of His grace and power within us.
That is why His word says in John 12:32 NKJV "And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all peoples to Myself.”
By His grace we have received of the fullness of Jesus Christ, grace upon grace, overflowing grace.
For the law came through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
The grace came through Him in overwhelming quantities.
Nothing we will ever do will be enough to satisfy the law of God
and by works of the law shall no flesh be justified before God.
That is why Galatians 2:16 says:
Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law but by faith in Jesus Christ,
even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the law;
for by the works of the law no flesh shall be justified (NKJV).
Grace says He did it all for me because of His exceeding riches in mercy, love and kindness towards me. He gave the sacrifice for my sin.
When I believe on Jesus Christ and celebrate what He did for me and acknowledge Him as Lord of my life, I am saved.
You receive from the fullness and abundance of Jesus Christ one grace after another,
spiritual blessing upon spiritual blessing, favour upon favour and gift heaped upon gift.
Glory be to God forevermore.
Do you desire to acknowledge and celebrate God's favour and grace upon your life?
When you are ready-
Prayer of celebration:
Heavenly Father in the name of Jesus Christ, I thank you for your grace upon my life in Jesus Christ.
Thank you for the accomplished work of the cross. Today I acknowledge the risen Jesus Christ as Lord of my life.
I denounce, renounce and reject every working of satan and his demons upon my life.
I ask you Father in the name of Jesus Christ to fill me with your Holy Spirit right now.
I receive the abundant outpouring of your Holy Spirit upon my life right now.
Thank you Father because from the fullness and abundance of Jesus Christ I receive grace upon grace,
favour upon favour, spiritual blessing upon spiritual blessing and gift heaped upon gift.
Today I acknowledge and thank you Father for your exceeding riches in mercy, love and kindness towards me and for your grace upon my life.
In Jesus Christ's name I pray. Amen.

Year in Focus
2026 The Year of Almighty God's Special Treasure
2026 is the year of Almighty God’s special treasure.
In this year, Almighty God wants you to engage with Him as a person after His own heart who desires to accomplish His purpose, plan and will.
A person who seeks the burden of Almighty God as you pray and intercede, as you witness the love of Jesus Christ through your various platforms
and as you exercise faithful stewardship of your time, of the mysteries of God entrusted to you and of substance.
His word tells us in Psalms 89:19-23:
'Then You spoke in a vision to Your holy one, and said: “I have given help to one who is mighty; I have exalted one chosen from the people.
20 I have found My servant, David; With My holy oil I have anointed him,
21 With whom My hand shall be established; also, My arm shall strengthen him.
22The enemy shall not outwit him, Nor the son of wickedness afflict him (NKJV).
23 I will beat down his foes before his face, and plague those who hate him.'
In 2026 there is help ordained for you from Almighty God. You have been waiting upon God with your heart focused on Him, on establishing His hand on Planet Earth.
Receive the help of God. Let the anointing of the Holy Spirit flow upon your life as you meditate on His word.
What you need to know:
Our Almighty God is a faithful God, that means He is trustworthy, He is dependable and follows things through.
His word tells us:
'He who calls you is faithful, who also will do it.' I Thessalonians 5:24.
'Behold, I am with you and will keep you wherever you go, and will bring you back to this land; for I will not leave you until I have done what I have spoken to you.' Genesis 28:15 (NKJV).
'Blessed be the Lord, who has given rest to His people Israel, according to all that He promised. There has not failed one word of all His good promise, which He promised through His servant Moses. ' 1 Kings 8:56 (NKJV).
Remember:
'God is not a man, that He should lie, nor a son of man, that He should repent. Has He said, and will He not do? Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good?
20 Behold, I have received a command to bless; He has blessed, and I cannot reverse it.' Numbers 23:19-20 (NKJV).
(see also Isaiah 46:9-11, Isaiah 14:24-27)
What you need to understand and have a revelation of:
There is in the calendar of God something called the fullness of time.
His word tells us:
'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 (NKJV).
Remember also:
'Now the sojourn of the children of Israel who lived in Egypt was four hundred and thirty years.
41And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years—on that very same day—it came to pass that all the armies of the Lord went out from the land of Egypt. 'Exodus 12:40-41 (NKJV).
In fact, it was precise to the second- at midnight, at the stroke of midnight first-borns were struck and Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron and said -Go and serve your God.
We read in Galatians 4:4-5:
'But when the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the law,
5 to redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption as sons.' (NKJV).
In your life and in the Ministry, you need to wait upon Him, but while you wait be busy doing what needs to be done today.
What you need to do-
a) Keep your eyes on the word of God.
His word tells us:
'Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.' Colossians 3:16 (NKJV).
'Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed Him, “If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed.
And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.' John 8:31-32 (NKJV).
b) Be conscious of the presence of the Holy Spirit in your life.
We read in John 14:15-17 (AMPC):
' If you [really] love Me, you will keep (obey) My commands.
16 And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Comforter (Counselor, Helper, Intercessor, Advocate, Strengthener, and Standby), that He may remain with you forever–
17 The Spirit of Truth, Whom the world cannot receive (welcome, take to its heart), because it does not see Him or know and recognize Him. But you know and recognize Him, for He lives with you [constantly] and will be in you.'
c) Be in prayer.
His word teaches us:
'Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints—
19 and for me, that utterance may be given to me, that I may open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel, ' Ephesians 6:18-19 (NKJV).
d) Remember your personal prayer agenda with God.
His word teaches us:
'Then the Lord said, “Hear what the unjust judge said. And shall God not avenge His own elect who cry out day and night to Him, though He bears long with them? I tell you that He will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will He really find faith on the earth?”' Luke 18:6-8 (NKJV).
Psalms 91:15 tells us:
'He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him and honor him.' (NKJV).
Almighty God has promised to answer you as you ask in the name of Jesus Christ.
Much grace and peace be multiplied to you.
In the service of Jesus Christ.
Apostle Dr Max and Joyce Matonhodze.
