“That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, 

may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: 

The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, 

and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, 

And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, 

according to the working of his mighty power,”‭‭ Ephesians‬ ‭1:17-19‬ ‭KJV‬‬.

It is the will of God that you receive a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of God. 

It is not possible to know God with the natural mind.

 God is spirit and you can only know Him through revelation,

 your spiritual eyes need to receive light so that you can see where He is taking you, 

you can know the size of the inheritance that awaits you and 

finally the size  and greatness of His power which He exerted in Jesus Christ

when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in heavenly places.

Point of reflection:

The spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of God is received as we believe His word.

 By the same word, the eyes of our understanding are flooded with light. 

This light enables you to see far- where God is taking you- 

it also enables you to see the greatness of His inheritance that awaits believers 

and the greatness of His power for us and in us. Glory be to God forevermore. 

Do you desire this? 

When you are ready-

Prayer of consecration:

Heavenly Father in the name of Jesus Christ I thank you for the sacrifice made by Jesus Christ

 when He suffered and died to bring me into the presence of Almighty God. 

Today I acknowledge the risen Jesus Christ as Lord of my life. 

I reject, denounce and renounce every working, every influence and every deception of the enemy satan 

and his demons in my life in the name of Jesus Christ.

I declare you have nothing in me and I have nothing in you.

I ask you Father in the name of Jesus Christ to fill and empower me with your Holy Spirit right now.

 I ask that you grant me the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of God,

 let the eyes of my understanding be enlightened that I may know the hope of my calling

and the greatness of the inheritance that awaits me. 

Open my eyes to understand the greatness of your power in me and for me.

 I receive resurrection power in my life today and forever. 

I release that power to work in my body and in every other area of my life........

I bring before you your people across Planet earth and I ask that you may grant them

 a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of God.........

 I pray that you open their eyes to see and understand the hope of their calling

 as well as the riches of the glory of your inheritance in the saints.................

I pray that they receive a spirit of revelation to know the exceeding, unlimited and surpassing greatness

 of your power in them and for them who believe according to the working of the power you exerted 

in Jesus Christ when you raised Him from the dead................

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.
