you are born again, in your spirit- you are a new creature.
Point of Reflection:
In your spirit you are one with Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 6:17).
Your spirit knows everything (1 John 2:20).
Your spirit has the mind of Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 2:16).
Your born again spirit is complete, nothing can be taken away from it or added to it.
Glory be to God forevermore.
For what is in your spirit to affect and flow into your body and the circumstances around you,
your mind (your soul- the seat of the intellect, emotions, will and conscience) needs to be transformed,
metamorphosed by the word of God which is spirit and life (John 6:63).
This will enable you to release and manifest the power of God into your body and the situations around you.
That transformation (Greek- metamorphoo) means you change into another form, are no longer in the mould of this world.
Transformation (metamorposis) is what happens to a caterpillar to become a butterfly
from crawling at 0 miles per hour to flying, that is the type of change the word of God should cause to you.
That is the sort of power the word of God should release to your being.
For that to happen you need to surrender to the word, allow it to enter, penetrate and transform your mind.
You begin to think the way Almighty God thinks, talk the way Almighty God would talk and act the way Almighty God would act.
Do you desire to be transformed in the thinking if your mind?
When you are ready-
Prayer of commitment:
Heavenly Father in the name of Jesus Christ, I thank you
for sending down Jesus Christ to suffer and die for my redemption.
Today I acknowledge the risen Jesus Christ as Lord of my life.
I set myself apart and consecrate myself to you.
I reject, renounce and denounce every working and influence of the enemy satan and his demons and declare
I have nothing in you and you have nothing in me.
You were defeated, disarmed, stripped naked and humiliated publicly by Jesus Christ on the cross.
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 in the name of Jesus Christ.
I yield my life to your word which is spirit and life.
As I hear, read, study and meditate upon your word, I allow total and complete transformation
of my mind, intellect, emotions and will by your word.
I believe your word and allow it to do a perfect work in my life.
I remember all the members of my family and I pray for a total work of transformation by the word of God.
I remember each and every member and partner of Planet Ministries
and ask for your word to do a total work of transformation.
I remember every child of God across Planet Earth and ask for the release of the word of power
to transform them in the mighty name of Jesus Christ.
Thank you Father for hearing me. In the name of Jesus Christ I pray. Amen.

With best wishes for the Year 2023, the year in which the Lord God is visiting His restless ones with an anointing that breaks the yoke of bondage of the enemy.
There is a big financial dimension to the victory for the restless ones in 2023. The yoke of poverty and financial struggles is being broken.
a) Things you need to know:
The year in which the restless ones rise up with the zeal of Almighty God to cause the spreading of the cities of Almighty God through prosperity.
Almighty God says: proclaim saying 'Thus saith the Lord of Hosts: "Iam zealous for Jerusalem with great zeal."' Zechariah 1:14
He also says: 'Thus says the Lord, "I am returning to Jerusalem with mercy; My house shall be built in it," says the Lord of Hosts,
"And a surveyor's line shall be stretched out over Jerusalem."' Zechariah 1:16. See also Zechariah 8:1-5, 12-13, 15, 21 and 23.
He goes further to say: "Again proclaim, saying, 'Thus says the Lord of hosts: "My cities shall again spread out through prosperity;
The Lord will again comfort Zion, And will again choose Jerusalem."' Zechariah 1:17.
He says: "Take the silver and gold, make an elaborate crown, and set it on the head of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest." Zechariah 6:11.
Almighty God wants to put a crown of gold upon your head.
b) What you need to do:
1. In 2023, take away your measuring line. Do not limit what God can do for you and through you in the way you think, the way you speak and the way you act.
Do not limit the Holy One of Israel. ( Zechariah 1:1-5 )
In Psalms 78:41: His word says:Yes, again and again they tempted God,
And limited the Holy One of Israel.
Remember also Ephesians 3:20 says: He is able to do exceedingly abundantly, above all we think and ask, by the power at work within us.
2. Call with a strong conviction on the Almighty God for whom all things are possible, for whom nothing shall be impossible.
Remember His word says in Genesis 18:10-14:
10 And He said, “I will certainly return to you according to the time of life, and behold, Sarah your wife shall have a son.”
(Sarah was listening in the tent door which was behind him.)
11 Now Abraham and Sarah were old, well advanced in age; and Sarah had passed the age of childbearing.
12 Therefore Sarah laughed within herself, saying, “After I have grown old, shall I have pleasure, my lord being old also?”
13 And the LORD said to Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh, saying, ‘Shall I surely bear a child, since I am old?’
14 Is anything too hard for the LORD? At the appointed time I will return to you, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son.”
See also Jeremiah 32:17-22, Jeremiah 32:26-27.
In Luke 1:34-38 we read:
34 Then Mary said to the angel, “How can this be, since I do not know a man?”
35 And the angel answered and said to her, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Highest will overshadow you;
therefore, also, that Holy One who is to be born will be called the Son of God.
36 Now indeed, Elizabeth your relative has also conceived a son in her old age; and this is now the sixth month for her who was called barren.
37 For with God nothing will be impossible.”
38 Then Mary said, “Behold the maidservant of the Lord! Let it be to me according to your word.” And the angel departed from her.
See also Mark 10;27 and Matthew 19:26.
Remember the Holy Spirit comes upon you and the power of the Most High overshadows you- to make the will of Almighty God happen in your life and in the work of the Ministry.
In Jeremiah 32:19 -21 we read that our Almighty God is great in counsel and mighty in deeds and that He brought out His people Israel from the land of Egypt with signs and wonders,
with a strong hand, and an outstretched arm and with great terror and He gave them the land that flows with milk and honey- they came in and took possession of it.
Let Him give you His counsel, let Him show you His signs and wonders, go in and take possession.
c) What you need to understand (have a revelation of):
You need to understand the following things:
1. There is in the calendar of God something called the fullness of time.
In Genesis 21:1-2 we read: 1 And the LORD visited Sarah as He had said, and the LORD did for Sarah as He had spoken.
2 For Sarah conceived and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.
2. Almighty God fulfils His promises.
In Numbers 23:19-20 we read:
19 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.
In Isaiah 46:9-11 we read:
9 Remember the former things of old,
For I am God, and there is no other;
I am God, and there is none like Me,
10 Declaring the end from the beginning,
And from ancient times things that are not yet done,
Saying, My counsel shall stand,
And I will do all My pleasure,’
11 Calling a bird of prey from the east,
The man who executes My counsel, from a far country.
Indeed I have spoken it;
I will also bring it to pass.
I have purposed it;
I will also do it.
3. It has been done before-
Remember in her restlessness Rachael cried: Give me children or else I die (Genesis 30:1). God answered her prayer and she bore Joseph, who subsequently received
the portion of the first born of Israel.
In her restlessness, Hannah prayed for a male child and pledged to give him to the Lord all the days of her life. God answered her prayer and she bore Samuel,
a mighty prophet of God who was also a judge of Israel. (1 Samuel 1:11).
In her restlessness Mary Magdalene sought to find where they had laid the body of the Lord Jesus Christ and she refused to be comforted.
The Lord Jesus had to make an unscheduled visit to the tomb while on His way to the Father. The Lord Jesus Christ had to appear to Mary. (John 20:11-18).
We love you and continue to pray for you as you set yourself apart and consecrate yourself for the purposes of Almighty God on the Earth in our day.
Apostle Dr Max and Joyce Matonhodze.
