Title: The God of Jesus Christ believes in you and the power of one.
“A little one shall become a thousand,
and a small one a strong nation:
I the Lord will hasten it in his time.” Isaiah 60:22 KJV.
You will need to remember child of God that the Almighty God believes in the power of one.
He believes in the difference one child of God can make
when empowered by the grace and enabling power from on high.
He believes in you, when surrendered to Him and seeking His will and His purposes on the earth.
Hebrews chapter eleven catalogs the men and women who were little and insignificant
but stood on the word of God, opened their lives to the empowering of His Holy Spirit and to His abilities
and changed the course of history.
Let's look at some of them: Shadrack, Misheck and Abednigo refused to bow
to a golden image, they made a declaration:
"Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed–nego, answered and said to the king,
O Nebuchadnezzar, we are not careful to answer thee in this matter.
If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace,
and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king.
But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods,
nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.” Daniel 3:16-18 KJV.
Notice their declaration- our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from this furnace
and He will but even if He does not- let it be crystal clear to you- we will not serve your gods nor worship the image-
their determination, faith and declaration was resolute.
The end result was that the power of Almighty God was manifested, Jesus Christ Himself appeared in the burning fiery furnace
and the king made a decree for everybody to worship the God of Shadrach, Meshack and Abed-nego.
They changed a nation for Almighty God.
Point of reflection:
A little one shall become a thousand, really means a little one with God
is already a thousand and a small one with God is already a strong nation.
The God we serve is one for whom all things are possible.
Therefore rise up with Him, make a mark in your generation through the prayer you pray,
the person to which you witness the power of God and the love of Jesus Christ.
Also remember to be a faithful steward of what Almighty God has given you- the time, the mysteries of Almighty God and substance.
As you give as a faithful steward Almighty God is able to multiply your efforts and accomplish great things through you.
Never despise what you with God can accomplish.
When you are ready-
Prayer:
My Father in the name of Jesus Christ, I thank you for Jesus Christ whom you sent down to suffer,
shed His own blood so that my sin may be forgiven.
Thank you that Jesus Christ rose from the dead and is alive today.
I acknowledge you Jesus Christ as Lord of my life from today.
I set myself apart and consecrate myself for you.
I reject 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 in the name of Jesus Christ.
Thank you that with you I am a thousand and with you I am a strong nation
through the enabling of your Holy Spirit.
I present before you Father the people and nations of Planet Earth and I ask you Father in the name of Jesus Christ
show mercy O God, move by your Spirit O God, save souls O God.
Raise labourers for your harvest in every village of every nation of Planet Earth in the name of Jesus Christ.
In the name of Jesus Christ I pray. Amen.

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.
