Title: You were made a new creature.

 

“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away;

 behold, all things are become new.” ‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭5:17‬ ‭KJV.

‬‬

When you believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and acknowledge Him as Lord of your life, you are born again.

Point of Reflection:

It is important to understand that you are spirit, with a soul (the seat of the mind, intellect, emotions, will and conscience) in a body.

 When you believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and  acknowledge Him as Lord,

 your human spirit is removed and a new spirit is put in which is intermarried to the Spirit of Jesus Christ. 

That is why Jesus Christ said to  Nicodemus:

 “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.

 That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.”‭‭John‬ ‭3:5-6‬ ‭NKJV‬‬.

Your clear task is the renewal of your mind. 

You need to meditate upon the word of God and allow it to change and transform the way you think, talk and act. 

As the word of God which itself is spirit and life renews your mind, 

it allows the power of God to flow from your spirit 

(which is intermarried and one with the spirit of Jesus Christ)

 into your body and the circumstances around you. 

That is why the word of God says: 


“And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; 

if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.”‭‭ Romans‬ ‭8:17‬ ‭KJV

‬‬You are a child of God, an heir of God and joint heir with Jesus Christ in your spirit.

“It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing.

 The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life.”‭‭ John‬ ‭6:63‬ ‭NKJV‬‬.


“And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, 

that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.”‭‭ Romans‬ ‭12:2‬ ‭NKJV‬‬.

Do you desire to be transformed through the renewing of your mind by the word of God

 so as to manifest the Christ in you?

If molten iron is poured into a container, it dries taking the shape of that container- 

it is moulded into the shape of that container. It is conformed to the shape of that container.

You cannot avoid being moulded into something, but you can choose the container  you wish to mould you-

 let that be the word of God. 

If you pour yourself into the word of God it will mould you into the Christ nature- 

you will be begin to think, talk  and act like Jesus Christ.

The result will be a transformation by the word of Almighty God.

 The power of the word of God will flow from your born again spirit (where Jesus Christ,

 the word of God dwells) into your body and into your circumstances. 

The transformation of your mind is the key to you experiencing your miracle.

Rebel against conforming to the norms of the world and embrace transformation

by committing yourself to embracing the word of God with a positive attitude and meditating upon it.

When you are ready-

Prayer of commitment:

Heavenly Father I thank you for sending 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 alone Lord Jesus Christ. 

I reject, renounce and denounce every working and influence of the enemy satan and his demons upon my life. 

You were defeated and disarmed publicly and openly 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 in filling of your Holy Spirit in the name of Jesus Christ. 

Father I commit myself to transformation through the renewing of my mind through studying

 and meditating upon your word with a positive and expecting attitude.

 To you Father I give all the glory. 

In the name of Jesus Christ I pray. Amen.

As you have acknowledged Jesus Christ as Lord, you are now a born-again child of God.

 In your spirit you are now one with Jesus Christ.

 Continue to transform your mind as you study and meditate upon His word

 to release the power of God into your body and circumstances around you.

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.
