Title: You need strength of conviction in the power of the word of God in Jesus Christ in order to overcome the enemy satan.
“Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities,
against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world,
against spiritual wickedness in high places.” Ephesians6:10-12 KJV.
The word of God here admonishes the child of God
to be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.
The strength referred to here is strength of conviction,
to be thoroughly and totally persuaded and convinced
that God is able to accomplish His word to you and
that His executive power and might are sufficient to accomplish His mission in and through you.
His word goes further to say we are in a wrestling match
but not against a physical enemy but a spiritual one, forces of the wicked one satan.
We therefore need to be armed spiritually.
His word goes further to tell us that the weapons of our warfare are not physical,
but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds. (2 Corinthians 10:4).
Please understand that the beginning point of the victory of a child of Almighty God
is opening your heart completely to His word and allowing that word to do a complete
work in you as you meditate upon that word prayerfully.
The word is Spirit and it is life (John 6:63). The spirit gives life.
His word goes further to say in 1 John 2:14 -
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.
Please understand the critical trio: the word abides in you, it brings with it
the knowledge of God (the knowledge of Jesus Christ) and with this comes strength of conviction,
with strength of conviction comes victory over the wicked one.
Do you desire to pull down strongholds of the enemy from the affairs of your life, family, ministry and the brethren?
If yes-
Point of Reflection:
Your enemy satan and his demons were stripped naked,
defeated and disarmed publicly by Jesus Christ on the cross of Calvary. (Colossians 2:15).
You need to take authority over him in the name of and by the authority of Jesus Christ in you,
bind him up by faith in operation of the word of God,
pull down his strong holds, command Him to cease hindering you
and the people of God as they arise to do the will of God on the earth.
Glory be to God Almighty forever and ever. Amen.
When you are ready-
Prayer:
My heavenly Father in the name of Jesus Christ I thank you that satan
and his demons were defeated publicly and openly by Jesus Christ on the cross.
I thank you that Jesus Christ was raised from the dead and is alive today.
I open my life to you Lord Jesus Christ and ask you to be my Lord from today.
I set myself apart and consecrate my life for you. Lord you can have me as your portion and as your inheritance.
In the name of Jesus Christ, I reject, denounce and renounce every working,
every influence and every deception of the enemy satan and his demons upon my life. I declare that you are judged in my body,
in my life, family and ministry in the name of Jesus Christ.
I ask you Father in the name of Jesus Christ to fill and empower me with your Holy Spirit right now.
I receive, accept and embrace the abundant outpouring of your Spirit
upon my life in the name of Jesus Christ.
I rebuke and bind every working of the enemy satan
and his demons upon my life and upon the people of God across Planet Earth in the name of Jesus Christ.
In the name of Jesus Christ I command the pulling down of every stronghold of the enemy satan
in every nation and every institution across Planet Earth in the mighty name of Jesus Christ.
Thank you Father for victory over the enemy in the name of Jesus Christ.
Today Father I commit myself to your word, to study and meditate upon it prayerfully
in the name of Jesus Christ 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 interceed 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 or 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.
