Title: Saved by grace through faith in the unchangeable word of God in Jesus Christ.
“Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.” Matthew 24:35 KJV, Mark 13:31, Luke 21:33.
“Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:
And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.” Matthew 7:24-25 KJV.
Our salvation through Jesus Christ is founded and anchored upon the promises He made in His word.
His word is a rock on which we should be founded. Heaven and earth shall pass away, but the word of God shall not pass away.
His word says in John 3:16 NKJV: "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”
His word also says in Romans 6:23 NKJV: "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
It says further in Romans 10:9, 13 NKJV “That if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For 'whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved.'”
The word says the wages of sin is death, this death is separation from God and His positive outcomes, now and for all eternity.
Sin is living your life giving your back to God and living for yourself. By default we will then be serving the enemy of God and mankind satan.
Sin is also missing God's mark in the affairs of our lives. Because of the sin of Adam and Eve we are all born in sin.
God provided for us the solution to sin in sending Jesus Christ to suffer, and die for us. He carried our sins, sicknesses, diseases and suffering of every kind.
On the third day God raised Him from the dead for our justification.
Point of reflection: What does one need to do to benefit from what God did for us in Jesus Christ?
First believe on the Lord Jesus Christ-
that He suffered and died for you and that He rose again from the dead and is alive today. He suffered pain to carry your disease and sickness.
Secondly turn to Him, acknowledge that you have rebelled against Him and that you now want to live for Him.
Embrace God: He wants a relationship with you, this will be the most rewarding relationship you can ever have.
Another word for this is repentance.
Thirdly- you need to call upon His name and acknowledge Jesus Christ as Lord of your life.
For whosoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.
You may ask: How will I know I have been saved?
By believing His promises. By Faith in His word that does not change.
When you call on Jesus Christ sincerely, He hears and forgives you, He comes into your life. His Spirit regenerates your spirit.
You are regenerated and you become a born again child of God.
He said in His word: “And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand.
My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father’s hand.”John 10:28-29 NKJV.
His word also says in John 6:37 NKJV : "All that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will by no means cast out.”
His word also says in 1 John 5: 11-13 NKJV " And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son.
He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.
These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life,
and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God.”
Do you desire this? When you are ready-
Prayer of consecration: Heavenly Father in the name of Jesus Christ, I thank you for sending Jesus Christ to suffer and die for me.
Thank you that He shed His blood so that my sin may be forgiven. Today I turn back to you. I embrace the love of Jesus Christ for me.
I acknowledge Jesus Christ as Lord of my life. Thank you for carrying my disease and sicknesses in the stripes on your back.
Thank you that your body was broken for the healing of my body. Thank you for the gift of eternal life. I anchor my faith on your word which shall never pass away.
In Jesus Christ's name I pray. 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 be standing in 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, Strengthener, 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.
