Title: God wants you to know.
“And Jesus said to him, 'Assuredly, I say to you, today you will be with Me in Paradise.'”Luke 23:43 NKJV.
It is the desire of God that after you acknowledge Jesus Christ as Lord of your life,
you enjoy God's salvation which was given to us as a free gift.
Remember the Word of God does not use vague or unsure language when it talks about salvation,
but the language is definite and without any doubt.
For example:Luke 23:43:Assuredly, I say to you, today you will be with Me in Paradise.
Romans 10:13 NLT: For everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord will be saved.
1 John 5:13 NLT “I have written this to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know you have eternal life.”
John 3:36 NLT: And anyone who believes in God’s Son has eternal life.
John 3:16 NLT: “For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son,
so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life."
John 3:17 NLT: "God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through him.”
(NLT- New Living Translation)
Point of reflection:
Remember your salvation is not through your works, but through what Jesus Christ did for you. It is a gift of God.
A gift is free and completely free. Hence His word says in Ephesians 2:8-9
"For by grace you have been saved through faith, and it is not of yourselves;
it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. (NKJV).
If you work for something -it is no longer a gift, it is a wage or salary.
Grace is an undeserved, unmerited favour or gift emanating from action on the side of God.
Almighty God gave us - for free - Jesus Christ-
so that as you believe in Him (you need faith only) you may not perish but have eternal life.
Romans 5:1 says: Therefore having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.
You are justified, made righteous, forgiven, born again, adopted by God to become a member of the household of God, redeemed by Jesus Christ-
by faith in the sacrifice made by Jesus Christ for you- and faith alone.
Memorise the scriptures above because His word tells us in Romans 10:17: "Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God."
His word also tells us in Matthew 4:4: "Man does not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God".
It is really profitable to memorise scriptures by heart as this will really build up your faith.
Prayer of thanksgiving:
Heavenly Father in the name of Jesus Christ, I thank you for sending Jesus Christ to suffer and die for my salvation.
I acknowledge the risen Jesus Christ as my Lord today.
Thank you that Jesus Christ died for my sin once and for all.
As your word says in Hebrews 10:14 that by one sacrifice Jesus Christ has made perfect forever those that are being made holy.
Thank you Father that in Jesus Christ I am made the righteousness of God.
Today I rejoice and celebrate your salvation. In Jesus Christ's name 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.
