Title: The taste of true freedom.
"The Spirit of the LORD is upon Me, Because He has anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor;
He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind,
to set at liberty those who are oppressed; to proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD.” Luke 4:18-19 NKJV.
The word of God declares in John 8:36 KJV "If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.”
The enemy satan desires to put people in bondage of various sorts, sin, disease and sickness, bad temper
and un-forgiveness all the way to substance misuse-alcohol, tobacco and other illicit drugs.
Point of Reflection:
His word says in Colossians 2:15:“Having disarmed principalities and powers,
He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it. (the cross)." NKJV.
His word also declares in 1John 3:8 AMP
"But he who commits sin, who practices evildoing, is of the devil, takes his character from the evil one,
for the devil has sinned, violated the divine law from the beginning.
The reason the Son of God was made manifest, visible was to undo
destroy, loosen, and dissolve the works the devil has done.”
Jesus Christ on the cross defeated, disarmed and stripped naked satan and his demons publicly and openly.
He was made manifest to destroy, undo and dissolve all the works the enemy satan had done.
In short, you have victory over every demon and every bondage of the enemy satan through Jesus Christ.
You can command satan and his demons to leave you, to let you go
so that you can experience total freedom that comes from Jesus Christ.
The freedom to serve God, to release your talent and full potential. To live without fear in total freedom.
The freedom to live for God, to serve the Almighty God your creator, to sing your "song" the way He intended you to, your way,
His way, the way your creator intended it to be sung, under His guidance, direction, wisdom and powered by His Holy Spirit.
Do you desire to be set free to serve God?
Do you desire to be freed from every bondage of satan?
When you are ready-
Prayer of faith for deliverance:
Father in the name of Jesus Christ, I thank you for Jesus Christ through whom I receive total
and complete victory over the enemy satan and his demons.
I acknowledge the risen Jesus Christ as Lord of my life from today.
I command the enemy satan and his demons in the name of Jesus to let me go and serve my God in the name of Jesus Christ.
I thank you Father for my freedom to serve you in the name of Jesus Christ.
Thank you for freedom from sin, disease and sickness, freedom from every
oppression of the enemy satan and his demons and freedom from fear.
I set myself apart and consecrate myself to serve you alone.
I ask you Father in the name of Jesus Christ to fill me with your Holy Spirit right now
I receive the outpouring of your Spirit upon my life which I receive by faith in the operation of God upon my life right now.
Thank you Lord for hearing me. In the name of Jesus Christ I pray.
Father today as we send your word across Planet Earth Lord, we pray that it gives salvation and total deliverance
from every working of the enemy in every life, that it releases healing from every bondage, disease and sickness.
In the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

The Year in Focus: Best wishes for the 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.
