Title: The hand of the Lord is permanently against your enemies.
“And Samuel took a suckling lamb and offered it as a whole burnt offering to the LORD.
Then Samuel cried out to the LORD for Israel, and the LORD answered him.
Now as Samuel was offering up the burnt offering, the Philistines drew near to battle against Israel.
But the LORD thundered with a loud thunder upon the Philistines that day,
and so confused them that they were overcome before Israel.
And the men of Israel went out of Mizpah and pursued the Philistines,
and drove them back as far as below Beth Car.
Samuel took a stone and set it up between Mizpah and Shen, and called its name Ebenezer, saying,
“Thus far the LORD has helped us.” So the Philistines were subdued,
and they did not come anymore into the territory of Israel.
And the hand of the LORD was against the Philistines all the days of Samuel.”I Samuel 7:9-13 NKJV.
Combining praise, worship and praying His promises will always give you victory in every situation you face.
Samuel offered a worship offering to the Lord, which the Lord accepted.
Samuel then cried to the Lord on behalf of Israel and the Lord heard him.
The hand of the Lord from that day onwards was against Samuel's enemies.
Point of Reflection:
In every situation you face, give thanks and worship Almighty God.
Use the weapon of praying the promises to bring your requests before the Almighty God.
He does answer prayer and when He does, nothing ever remains the same.
So remember when you praise and worship often and pray His promises,
the hand of God will be permanently turned against your enemies child of God.
You will be able to put up a memorial stone, a mile peg to mark the occasion and call it Ebenezer: thus far the Lord has helped me.
You need to put up memorials from time to time, take time to reflect, take stock to see what God has done for you.
That is why His word says in Philippians 4:6 : Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer
and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God (NKJV).
Do you feel ready to celebrate another Ebenezer mile peg?
When you are ready-
Prayer of faith:
Heavenly Father in the name of Jesus Christ, I thank you for sending Jesus Christ to suffer for the sin of mankind.
Today I acknowledge the risen Jesus Christ as Lord of my life.
I consecrate and set myself apart for you alone Lord Jesus.
I reject, denounce and renounce every working and influence of the enemy 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.
Father on this day thank you for answering my prayers.
I thank you for permanently turning your hand against my enemy satan and his demons.
Because Jesus Christ on the cross disarmed and defeated satan publicly and openly.
As I remember the battles you have fought for me and I thank you for giving me victory in the name of Jesus Christ.
I remember my family and declare Ebenezer, thus far the Lord has helped us.

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.
We love you as we invite you to be counted as Almighty God's special treasure in 2026 and beyond.
As you run with the vision, we are praying for you and wish you a 2026 filled with the victory that comes from God.
Much grace and peace be multiplied to you.
In the service of Jesus Christ.
Apostle Dr Max and Joyce Matonhodze.
