Title: Almighty God in Jesus Christ is a rewarder of those who seek Him diligently.
"By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter;
Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God,
than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season;
Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt:
for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward.” Hebrews 11:24-26 KJV.
“But without faith it is impossible to please him:
for he that cometh to God must believe that he is,
and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.” Hebrews 11:6 KJV.
It is critical to understand that our God is a rewarder of them that seek Him diligently.
The word diligent -from Latin- diligere- to value highly, to take delight in.
So valuing our Heavenly Father highly and taking delight in Him
should be the beginning point in seeking Him.
Diligence also implies perseverance, tirelessness and taking great care. It also means being conscientious and taking care of detail.
As you seek God putting great value and delight,
with great care and perseverance, know that He is a rewarder.
Hebrews 11 tells us of men and women who believed God and obtained results.
We look to them as examples.
Moses brought up as a prince, in the royal family,
refused to be called a son of Pharaoh's daughter and the privileges it gave him.
The word says he knew these would be temporary-
temporary privileges, temporary results, temporary joy, temporary reward.
He had a revelation about a heavenly eternal joy,
privileges and reward even if it meant suffering reproach for a season.
God honoured His faith by rewarding him with the greatest mission of his generation,
being the deliverer of His people and eternal life.
He became no doubt one of the most powerful men who ever lived.
So when you give up anything for God he will lift you up even in the things of this life.
That is why Jesus Christ said in Mark 10:29-30:
"And Jesus answered and said, Verily I say unto you,
There is no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters,
or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake, and the gospel's,
But he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses,
and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands,
with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life.” (KJV).
So as we come to God in Jesus Christ believing His promises and seeking Him diligently,
He rewards us with joy, peace, flourishing,
heavenly relationships, health, protection, His provision, His victory and more.
Remember Moses gave up being an Egyptian prince for God
who in turn made him a prince of heaven and more.
So then child of God, say no to pleasures of sin which pass,
seek your God diligently with your eyes on the reward.
Take time to seek Him in His word, meditate upon it,
take time to pray for Planet harvest of souls,
pray for Almighty God to demonstrate His power
with undeniable miracles following the preaching of His word,
do not neglect assembling of saints.
Remember He is a rewarder of them who seek Him diligently.
Take some time to commit yourself to seeking Almighty God diligently.
When you are ready-
Prayer:
Heavenly Father 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 for you.
I reject, denounce and renounce every working, every influence and every deception
of the enemy satan and his demons upon my life in the name of Jesus Christ.
I ask you Father in the name of Jesus Christ to fill and empower me with your Holy Spirit right now.
I receive, accept and embrace the abundant outpouring of your Spirit upon my life.
I thank you that you are a rewarder of them who seek you diligently.
I come to you believing your word and promises,
saying no to the temporary pleasures of sin
with my eyes set on the heavenly prize.
I pray for your grace in all I do.
I present before you this ministry and the purposes you have raised it up to accomplish.
Let its voice be heard from the top of the highest mountain.
Supply Father every need for the gold and silver is yours.
I present before you Father Planet Earth and your people in need of your salvation.
Move by your Spirit and accomplish Father that which only Almighty God can do.
In the name of Jesus Christ we pray. Amen.

Year in Focus:
With best wishes for the Year 2024, 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 2024. 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 an elaborate crown of gold and silver 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 waord 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 will come upon you and the power of the Most High will overshadow 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.
