Title: Receive strength for the mountains.
“As yet I am as strong this day as on the day that Moses sent me; just as my strength was then,
so now is my strength for war, both for going out and for coming in.
Now therefore, give me this mountain of which the LORD spoke in that day;
for you heard in that day how the Anakim were there, and that the cities were great and fortified.
It may be that the LORD will be with me, and I shall be able to drive them out as the LORD said.”Joshua 14:11-12 NKJV.
Caleb the son of Jephunneh at 85 years of age was as strong in faith and vision as he was at the age of 40.
He said God had kept him alive, strong and sharp.
He did not ask for the valleys and plains, no - he demanded the mountain.
He was now ready to possess the mountains.
Both mentally and physically, he was ready for the mountain.
Point of reflection:
You need renewal of strength for the mountain climb.
In the mountain is your blessing.
You also critically need mountain climbing skills.
You need to up-skill. His word says in Isaiah 40:31 NKJV:
"But those who wait on the LORD Shall renew their strength;
they shall mount up with wings like eagles,
they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint.”
You also need to ask for the mountain, ask for great accomplishments for your God,
opportunities to bear much fruit for the kingdom of God.
Mountains are the things that challenge you, the things in which you feel you are getting out of your comfort zone.
Jesus Christ said in John 15: 7-8 NKJV :
"If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you,
you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you.
By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples.”
Remember your land of milk and honey, your blessing, your joy, peace, satisfaction
and all that follows is found in your fruitfulness for the kingdom of God.
Fruitfulness will come as you challenge yourself to doing things differently, challenging yourself to move into new areas.
You will need to sharpen your skills or even gain new skills in the process.
Do you desire strength to bear much fruit?
The word of God tells us in 2 Kings 19:3: And they said to him,
"Thus says Hezekiah:'This day is a day of trouble, and rebuke and blasphemy;
for the children have come to birth, but there is no strength to bring them forth.
The strength for the mountains is the strength to bring forth- strength to push- strength and resilience for war.
We need to ask for strength to push for salvation of souls across Planet Earth, for souls to grow into disciples,
bringing up generations of the God-kind
When you are ready-
Prayer for strength:
Heavenly Father in the name of Jesus Christ, I thank you for your grace and mercy.
Thank you for giving me Jesus Christ through whom I have redemption,
forgiveness of sin and access into your presence.
I acknowledge the risen Jesus Christ as Lord of my life today and
I ask you Father in the name of Jesus Christ for strength to bear much fruit for you.
I reject the enemy satan and every demonic influence upon my life in the name of Jesus Christ.
I declare that you were defeated, disarmed and stripped naked publicly and openly by Jesus Christ on the cross.
I ask you Father in the name of your Son Jesus Christ to open my eyes to see areas in which I need to renew,
sharpen and strengthen my skills for the harvest.
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.
