Title: He promises to keep before
you an open door which no-one can shut.
“And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write,
‘These things says He who is holy, He who is true,
He who has the key of David,
He who opens and no one shuts,
and shuts and no one opens”:
'I know your works. See, I have set before you an open door,
and no one can shut it;
for you have a little strength, have kept My word,
and have not denied My name.” Revelation 3:7-8 NKJV.
It is critical for every child of God to keep the word of God that has been entrusted to them.
To be a faithful steward of that word and to proclaim and not deny the name of Jesus Christ
in critical situations.
This means holding fast to His promises patiently and waiting upon Him
and having the boldness to identify with Jesus Christ when it matters most.
To be a witness of Jesus Christ to your friends, family and to whoever it may concern.
As you do that, He promises to strengthen you because He knows we have little strength.
Not only that, but He who holds the key of David,
the master key to every situation you will ever face, the master key to every resource,
the key to your destiny, the key to your eternity,
promises also to keep before you an open door which no-one can shut.
Glory be to God forevermore.
Point of reflection:
Keeping before you an open door means the enabling power,
grace, ability and every other ingredient you need to get you
to your destiny is before you, available and at your disposal.
It also means you have been given of Almighty God
the green light to execute the divine plan He has given to you.
Wow! Thank you Lord Jesus Christ.
Do you desire this? You need the grace to keep His word and to proclaim His name.
This is a powerful but conditional promise to you.
Will you commit yourself to hold fast to the word He has given to you?
When you are ready-
Prayer:
My Father in heaven, in the name of Jesus Christ,
I thank you for your faithfulness and for your grace upon my life.
Thank you for the grace upon grace that I need Lord to keep your word,
to proclaim the name of Jesus Christ
and execute your purpose on the earth.
I thank you for your Son, the risen Jesus Christ by whom I have access to your presence.
I confess you Jesus Christ as Lord of my life from today
and I celebrate the victory given to me through your suffering, death and resurrection.
I refuse, denounce and rebuke satan and his demons
and every influence, every working and every deception of the enemy satan upon my life
and upon the purpose for which God the Father has raised me up.
I ask you Lord to fill and empower me with your Holy Spirit right now in the name of Jesus Christ.
I receive the abundant outpouring of your Spirit upon my life in the name of Jesus Christ.
I celebrate today, your power and ability Lord Jesus Christ, you who holds the key of David.
On this day I acknowledge your strength and the open door you have set before me
to accomplish your purpose and will, in my family, in my community and on Planet Earth.
Thank you Father for hearing me in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

The Year in Focus: Best wishes for the New Year 2024, the Year of the Builder of the House of God. The year in which Almighty God is releasing the grace you need to complete the work He has started in your life.
Witnessing the love of Jesus Christ-increasing your reach, teaching and making disciples, building lives in Jesus Christ
as you pray and intercede for salvation of souls and for boots on the ground, as we give
substance to build physical churches across the nations.
This grace is powered by the seven fold anointings of the dominion of the Christ; The Spirit of the Lord, the Spirit of Wisdom, The Spirit of Knowledge,
The Spirit of Understanding (Revelation), the Spirit of Might, the Spirit of Counsel and the Spirit of the Obedient and Reverential Fear of the Lord.
In this year the Lord is declaring: "This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel: 'Not by power or by might but by my Spirit says the Lord of Hosts.
Who are you, O great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you shall become a plain! And He shall bring forth the capstone with shouts of grace, grace to it.'" Zechariah 4:6-7.
You have been laying a foundation, but now is the time to complete the building. You need to tackle obstacles, whatever form or nature they come.
Your weapons are: a) Constantly releasing the grace of God, the favour of Almighty God, releasing the help of God. See also Acts 26:22-23.
b) Releasing the word of God, standing on His promises- not by power or by might but by My Spirit says the Lord of Hosts. Speak God's faithfulness;
God's victory over the enemy, God's blessing upon your life- as you work for God you are a blessed person. (Numbers 23:8, 19-21; Isaiah 46:9-11; Isaiah 14:24-26, Psalms 89:1-35).
c) Allow the continual working of the Holy Spirit upon your life. Make the Holy Spirit your companion, your Helper, Comforter, Standby, Guide, Intercessor, Advocate, Counselor, Strengthner
What you need to know:
1. Almighty God desires you to finish the work He has started through you.
In this year Almighty God is releasing for you the grace to complete what he has started through you. He says "The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation stone of this temple,
His hands shall also finish it." Zechariah 4:9.
The foundation has been laid and now is time to finish the building.
Jesus said: “It is finished.”John 19:20. He was a finisher, He finished.
Apostle Paul of Tarsus, said “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith”. 2 Timothy 4:7. He ran and finished. So did the other apostles and the other believers.
2. You need continuous cry for grace from the fullness of Jesus Christ (John 1:16), you need grace and peace to be multiplied to you (1 Peter 1:1-2). See also 1Timothy 6:12.
3. Remember the race is completed at the finishing line.
What you need to understand:
1. Almighty God accomplishes His mission by the operation of the seven fold anointings of dominion which declares: Not by power nor by might but by My Spirit says the Lord,
who are you O great mountain, before Zerubbabel you shall become a plain! Zechariah 4:6-7.
2. While you need all seven candles burning, in this year the spearhead cry is the Spirit of Revelation. That God in Jesus Christ may reveal Himself to you,
and that He may reveal the plans He has for you, to you, that He may reveal to you the path you need to take to reach your intended destination.
Activities of 2024: where the rubber hits the road:
a) Cry for Almighty God to reveal Himself to you. In Jeremiah 33:3 He says: Call into Me and I will answer you and show you great and mighty things,
(hidden and fenced in things) you do not know. (AMP) Let Him reveal to you the excellence of the knowledge of Jesus Christ. (Phillipians 3:8-10, Ephesians 1:15-22)
b) Cry for God to reveal to you the things He has prepared for you, the future He has prepared for you, the plan He has for you:
But as it is written: “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who fear Him.”
But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God. 1 Corinthians 2:9-10.
c) Cry grace for holiness- you need to be in His presence. Seek holiness without which no man shall see God. (Hebrews 12:14). Seeing God here is experiencing Him. See also Matthew 5:8; Leviticus 11:44-45
d) Cry grace for building the house of God- grace for witnessing Jesus Christ, ministering and building up people, grace for intercessory prayer,
grace to be a faithful steward of substance, the mysteries of God and the time God has given to you.
e) Be word conscious- this is the word of God to Zerubbabel asking who are you O great mountain, before Zerubbabel you shall be a plain.
Whatever obstacle may standing on your way, be it financial. human instruments or circumstantial- declare the word and command it to become a plain.
f) Be Holy Spirit conscious- the seven candles are powered by the Holy Spirit. Jesus Christ said I will not leave you helpless, comfortless or orphaned,
but I will give you another Helper, Comforter, Standby, Intercessor, Advocate, Strengthner, Counselor, Guide and Teacher that He may remain with you forever. (John 14:15- 18 AMP).
g) Be in prayer- pray for the servants of God, pray all manner of prayers.
In this year you need to move to a higher intensity of prayer, a higher gear in your prayer life. See also Ephesians 6:18.
We love you as we invite you to be counted among the builders of the house of God in 2024 and beyond. As you move to your finishing line,
as you put on your own capstone with shoutings of grace, grace to it. We are praying for you and wish you a 2024 filled with the victory that comes from God.
Apostle Dr Max and Joyce Matonhodze.
