INKOSI IZAMA BONKE ABANTWANA BAYO
Ngokuka-Isaya 40:18, “Ningamfanekisa ke nabani na uThixo? Ningamfanekisa ke nabani na? UThixo akangomntu, kodwa waba yindoda yokufela izono zoluntu kwaye axolelanise umntu noThixo. Ebomini zininzi izinto esijongana nazo; kodwa ibhayibhile yatsho kumaRoma 8:28, "Siyazi ke ukuba zonke izinto zisebenziselana okulungileyo kwabo bamthandayo uThixo, kwababiziweyo ngokwengqibo yakhe." UThixo unecebo lakhe eliphambili kubantwana bakhe bonke kwasekusekweni kwehlabathi.
Ngexesha lam lobuntwana ndaye ndaya kwivenkile ethengisa izinto zegolide nomhlobo wam. Yayingamava amnandi. Umkhandi wegolide ngumntu owenza izinto ngegolide, acoce kwaye akhanyise nayiphi na into yegolide. Izixhobo ezininzi zifumaneka kwivenkile ekhangela igolide kubandakanya iipleyiti, iifom zeringi, imilomo emide nebanzi, abasiki, izinto ezingamanzi. Amanzi ayafuneka kwivenkile yomkhandi wegolide, kodwa okona kubaluleke kakhulu, yivillow kunye namalahle. Umjelo womoya ngumthombo womoya wokufaka umlilo ukuze ubushushu bufikelele kwinqanaba elifunekayo.
Njengoko ndandihamba nomhlobo wam singena kwivenkile yomkhandi wegolide, ndaqonda ukuba umoya ushushu. Usibonisile isiqwenga somhlaba esiza kusibeka kwelo ziko lincinci lifudumeleyo. Khange ndihoye kangako kwizinto ezibonakalayo ezazikhangeleka njengeqhuma elincinci. Ingqwalasela yam yayiye kumthombo womlilo. Wayewukhukhumeza umlilo ngokucekisa amacala amabini abizwa ngokuba yibhilow eyenziwe ngesikhumba esiqinileyo ngentonga ngaphezulu. Kwakubonakala ngathi yibhaluni ebotshelelwe kwintonga evela kwicala elingasentla. Ngokubanzi ityhalelwe phezulu nasezantsi ukujija umlilo.
Njengoko umnyibilikisi wegolide watyhalela ezantsi ngakwimilambo eyenye watyhala umoya emlilweni kwaye wonyusa iqondo lobushushu de kwafikelelwa kwinqanaba elifunwayo. Kwaye kwafika ixesha lokubeka i-rustic lump. Ngokuhamba kwexesha kwaye naye ejika isigaxa, ubungakanani besigaxa siye sancipha, kwaye isigaxa esisele saqala ukuthatha ukukhanya. Xa ndambuza isizathu sokucuthwa kwesigaxa, wachaza ukuba umququ omninzi utshisiwe kwaye nezinto zokwenyani ziyenyuka. Wayikhupha, wayithi nkxu kwisisombululo kunye namanzi wayiphindisela kwakhona kwiziko lomlilo elincinci wafaka amagagasi kwakhona. Uthe kufuneka anyuse ubushushu ukuze afumane into ebizwa ngokuba yigolide. Wayedla ngokuyihambisa ngepani; ukunyibilika kwaye uyilonge ngendlela awayefuna ngayo ngokuqaqamba okufanelekileyo nokunqwenelekayo.
Ngoku sendikhulile, ndinokuqonda okungcono ngento eyenziwa ngumkhandi wegolide kutyelelo lwethu, kwaye ndinokuyinxulumanisa nobomi bam bobuKristu. U-Yobhi wathi ku-Yobhi 23:10, "Kodwa uyayazi indlela endiyihambayo; xa athe wandilinga, ndaphuma njengegolide."
Okwangoku, emhlabeni wonke umKristu uyigugu elifihliweyo njengegolide. Akukho litha okanye kukhanya kubo. Abakhange bangene kwiziko ngokupheleleyo. Wonke umntu olikholwa lokwenyani uyakudlula esithandweni ngenjongo yokuhlanjululwa. Aba bacoci baquka izilingo, iintlungu, ukugculelwa ngokukhohlakeleyo nokunye okuninzi okunokufumaneka kumaHebhere 11. Ngokomvangeli uCharles Price wabali-16th kwinkulungwane ecatshulwe nguNeal Frisby, "Olunye uvavanyo luya kuba yimfuneko yokususa bonke ubulwelwe bengqondo yendalo kunye nokutshiswa kwazo zonke iinkuni kunye neendiza akukho nto kufuneka ihlale emlilweni, njengomlilo womcoci uya kuwucoca Oonyana bobukumkani. ” Ndiyazi ukuba xa endivavanya ndiya kuphuma njengegolide.
Kobu bomi wonke umntwana kaThixo oyinyani kufuneka angene eziko; ubushushu obufunekayo kufuneka bufikelelwe, kumntwana ngamnye kaThixo, ngaphambi kokuba kubonakale ukukhanya. UMaster Goldsmith (UYESU KRISTU) nguye omisela ubushushu obufunekayo apho umntwana ngamnye waKhe eya kuthi abeke ukukhanya. Oku kukhanya luphawu lwentengiso olubonisa njengomntwana waKhe. Ukukhanya okupheleleyo kuya kuza noguqulelo kuba sitywinwe nguMoya oyiNgcwele kude kube ngumhla wenkululeko.
NgokukaMpostile uPawulosi, wonke umntwana kaThixo uya kohlwaywa; ngoo-bastard kuphela abangafumani ukohlwaywa njengotata (Hebhere 12: 8). Masithuthuzeleke njengoko sibala amava ethu, ukusinceda sazi ukuba kwiimeko ezininzi uThixo uyasivumela okanye asenze ukuba sihambe ngomlilo ukuze sonwabe. Khumbula ukuba ngokwabaseRoma 8:28, zonke izinto zisebenzisana ngokulungelwa kwethu.
Njengokuba sidlula eziko, nokuba kushushu kangakanani na, gcina uYeremiya 29:11, uhlala phambi kwakho efundeka ngoluhlobo, “Kuba ndiyazazi iingcinga endinazo ngani ezilunge kuni, itsho iNkosi, iingcinga uxolo, hayi olubi, ukukunika isiphelo esilindelweyo. Ewe ungaba seziko njengaba bantwana bathathu bamaHebhere, kodwa uyazazi iingcinga zakhe ngakuwe, nasekusekweni kwehlabathi. Kuyathuthuzela ukwazi kwaye ukukholelwe njengoko udlula eziko.
Khawufane ucinge uLazaro kunye nesityebi, uLuka 16: 20-21. ULazaro waseziko-wayelambile, engakhathalelwanga, edeliwe, egcwele izilonda, ehleli esangweni ekhangela uncedo kodwa akalufumana; nditsho izinja ziyikhuphile imivumbo yakhe. Waqhubeka ejonge phezulu kuThixo. Wahamba ngexesha lakhe lomlilo, njengoYobhi owathi kuYobhi 13: 15, "Nangona enokundibulala kodwa ndiya kumthemba." Oko kufanele ukuba ibe sisimo sengqondo samakholwa onke ahamba eziko elivuthayo. Amava akho omlilo avuthayo ngoku akhonza ubuqaqawuli bakho bexesha elizayo.
Ezi zilingo zahlukeneyo kunye neengxaki zizinto ezenziwe ngumkhandi wegolide emsebenzini ukuphakamisa ubushushu kwinqanaba elifunekayo ukunceda ukutshisa intlenge nokucokisa igolide yokwenyani. Kungenxa yoko ezinye iimvavanyo zizezona zinto ziyimfuneko. Uhamba ngantoni entsha phantsi kwelanga? Awungowokuqala kwiziko kwaye ngekhe ubengowokugqibela. UPaul wathi kwabaseFilipi 4: 4, "Vuyani eNkosini amaxesha onke." INkosi yaxelela uPawulos kwelinye lamava eziko, "Ubabalo lwam lukwanele" (2 kwabaseKorinte 12: 9). Xa useziko, iNkosi inawe, khumbula uShadraki, uMeshaki noAbhednego.
INkosi yabonakala kuPaul xa yayophuke inqanawa yaza yamthuthuzela. UPaul noSilas bacula badumisa uThixo ngelixa besentolongweni bedibana neziko labo. UPeter noDaniel balele kamnandi ejele nakwisithando somlilo seengonyama ngokwahlukeneyo. Babengenabuthongo njengokuba uninzi lwethu lwalunokuba njalo. Kwiziko inqanaba lokuthemba kwakho nokuzithemba eNkosini kuyabonakala. Njengoko unyamezele ubunzima, iintlungu, ukubandezeleka kude kube sekufeni, indlela ocinga ngayo ngeLizwi likaThixo iya kukwenza ukhanye okanye utshise njengomququ. AmaHebhere 11 iinkcukacha ezininzi abaye bangena eziko kwaye baphuma benengxelo entle. Eminye yachetywa ngesarha yaza yatshiswa. Kusenokwenzeka ukuba, bakhumbula iDuteronomi 31: 6 efundeka ngolu hlobo, “Yomelelani nikhaliphe: musani ukoyika, musani ukungcangcazela ebusweni bazo; ngokuba nguYehova uThixo wakho ohamba nawe; akayi kukuyekela, akayi kukushiya. ” Ukho ukuze akubone udlula eziko, bamba nje ngokuqinileyo kwaye uhlale uthembekile kwisandla soMcoci kunye nomjelo wakhe.
Jonga umzalwana uStefano, umfeli-nkolo. Njengoko babemxuluba ngamatye, yonke loo nto yayigcwele ubushushu. Wayengalili kodwa wayenomoya kaThixo ubonakalisiwe kuye, ngelixa wayeseziko. Wayenoxolo lwengqondo lokuthi "Nkosi, ungabaziseli esi sono." Njengoko babemxuluba ngamatye, uThixo wentuthuzelo wambonisa izulu. Wathi, "Ndibona izulu livulekile noNyana woMntu emi ngasekunene kukaThixo," (Izenzo 7: 54-59). Xa uhamba eziko, ngamanye amaxesha uyathuthuzelwa sisityhilelo, njengoStefano. Ukuba uyigolide kaThixo, iziko liya kukuzisa likhanyise njengombhobho womyalelo we-Master Goldsmith. Uyabazi ubushushu obufunekayo ukuze ukhanye. Wathembisa ukuba akazukukugqithisa ngento ongenakukuthwala. Uyasazi isikhokelo sakho kwaye ulawula ngokupheleleyo.
Unokuba seziko ngoku okanye ungasondela kulo, okanye ungazi ukuba ukwelinye. Xa i-Master Goldsmith ihleli phantsi kwaye ngokuthe ngcembe iqala ukusebenzisa i-billows, uya kwazi ke ukuba isithando somlilo sikhanyisiwe. Nantoni na ojamelana nayo, cinga kwakhona, kuba iNkosi yethu uYesu Kristu inokusebenza kuwe ngelo xesha. Usenokukujika eziko ukuze ufudumeze ezinye iindawo zobomi bakho. Khumbula ukuba ngaphandle kwamathandabuzo ukunye nawe eziko. Wathembisa ukuba soze ndikushiye okanye ndikushiye. Wasigcina isithembiso sakhe nabantwana abathathu bamaHebhere ngemihla kaNebhukadenetsare ukumkani waseBhabheli. Indoda yesine yayikwiziko elivutha umlilo. Ukumkani wathi, Ndibona umntu wesine onjengonyana kaThixo, (Daniyeli 3: 24-25). Kungoko ndiqinisekisa ingxelo yeNkosi ukuba andisayi kuze ndikushiye.
Iingonyama zazinobuhlobo kuDaniel emhadini. Khange bamhlasele. UYesu Krestu wayekhona kunye naye njengengonyama yesizwe sakwaYuda. Iingonyama zisenokuba zabubona ubukho baKhe kwaye zaziphatha njengokuba wayeyiNgonyama ephetheyo. Andiyi kuze ndikushiye, andiyi kukushiya, itsho iNkosi (KumaHebhere 13: 5). Abo babandezeleka kunye neNkosi baya kulawula kunye naye eluzukweni (2 Timoti 2:12).
KwiGenesis 22: 1-18, uAbraham, ubawo wethu wokholo, wahamba neziko elivuthayo xa wayejongana nokubingelela okuphela kwakhe umntwana wesithembiso. Xa uThixo wafuna njalo, akazange abonisane noSara ngombono wesibini. Walungisa wahamba wenza ngokomyalelo. Akazange enze ikomiti yokuvavanya oko kwathethwa nguThixo. Wayelusizi kodwa wanyamezela ubunzima njengejoni elilungileyo. Uthe akufika entabeni uIsake wabuza kuyise, Nangu umlilo neenkuni; kodwa iphi imvu yedini elinyukayo? Oku kwakunjengokuba uThixo evuthela ubushushu obungaphezulu ku-Abraham owayesemlilweni. UAbraham waphendula ngokuzolileyo, "uThixo uya kuzibonela imvu yedini elinyukayo." Khawufane ucinge ukuba kuqhubeka ntoni entliziyweni yendoda engaphezulu kwe-100years ubudala. Ndingamfumana nini omnye umntwana? USarah naye mdala, ingaba le yintando kaThixo egqibeleleyo? Ndizakumxelela ntoni uSarah?
UAbraham wafika kuloo ndawo intaba imiselwe nguThixo. NgokukaGenesis 22: 9, uAbraham wakha isibingelelo apho, wabeka iinkuni ngocwangco, wambopha uIsake unyana wakhe, wambeka phezu kwesibingelelo phezu kweenkuni. Wasolula uAbraham isandla sakhe, wathabatha isitshetshe, ukuba abulale unyana wakhe; Ngamava eziko, kwaye iNkosi yathi, Andiyi kuze ndikushiye. Njengokuba uAbraham wolula isandla sakhe ukuba abulale unyana wakhe uIsake, owayeyona ndawo ishushu eziko; ethobela uThixo, wakhazimla okwegolide kwaye ingelosi yeNkosi yamemeza kuye isemazulwini isithi, “Musa ukusisa isandla sakho kumfana, musa ukumenza nto, kuba ndiyazi ngoku ukuba uyamoyika uThixo; awumbambanga nonyana wakho, emnye kuwe ”(iGenesis 21: 11 & 12). Yile ndlela uAbraham awaphuma ngayo eziko elivutha umlilo likhazimla njengegolide kwaye enuka njengentyatyambo yeentyatyambo. Woyisa ngokholo nokuzithemba eNkosini uThixo wakhe. Xa uhamba eziko, uThixo ubonakalisa ubukho bakhe ngezityhilelo entliziyweni yakho, ukuba intliziyo yakho ihleli kuye. KumaHebhere 11:19 sifunda ukuba ngelixa u-Abraham wayeseziko, “ecamanga ngokuba uThixo unako ukumvusa nakwabafileyo; apho athe ngoko wamzuza ngokomzekeliso. Ndiyabulela kuThixo ngomlilo ovuthayo ebomini bethu. Andenzi luhlobo luni lweziko okulo, likweliphi inqanaba okanye ubushushu obubangelwa ngumlilo kuwe. Bamba uqinise, uvume izono zakho ukuba ukwinto enye; Buyela eNkosini ukhumbule andiyi kukushiya okanye ndikushiye. Abantu bayamfulathela uThixo bathi ubashiyile; hayi mhlekazi, Uthe Utshatile nomntu obuyela umva, jikela kuYe ngelixesha lisekhona ithuba nethuba. Kusenokwenzeka ukuba kube semva kwexesha ukubuyela emnqamlezweni. Ngeyure awucingi; ngesiquphe, ngephanyazo. Lowo unyamezeleyo kwada kwaba sekupheleni ujoyina abo kumaHebhere 11, amen. Isithando somlilo esivuthayo kukuzisa igolide oyiyo. Usenokuba uwela elinye lala malungu eziko, imicimbi yosapho, abantwana, ukungabinabantu, ukuguga, impilo, ezemali, ingqesho, ezomoya, ezezindlu nokunye okuninzi. Khumbula ukuba iNkosi inawe kwaye isisisombululo sodwa. Shiya nje izono ezifihlakeleyo okanye ezivulekileyo njengoko ungena eziko.
Ngokuka-Charles Price, “Kuyakubakho intlawulelo epheleleyo negqibeleleyo kaKrestu (iGoldenmith). Le yimfihlakalo efihliweyo ayinakuqondwa ngaphandle kokutyhilwa koMoya oyiNgcwele. UYesu usondele ukutyhila okufanayo kubo bonke abafuna okungcwele kunye nababuza ngothando. Onyamezeleyo kwada kwaba sekupheleni, lowo uya kusindiswa. Lowo weyisayo uya kuzidla ilifa izinto zonke, ngokwesiTyhilelo 21: 7. Ndinokuzenza zonke izinto ngoKristu ondomeleza njengakwabaseFilipi 4:13. Oku kubandakanya ukuhamba kwiziko elivuthayo njengaleyo kumaHebhere 11; abo banyamezele zonke izinto, benengxelo entle kwaye bahlala ethembeni belinde inkululeko yomzimba wabo kwaye baya kukhanya njengeenkwenkwezi baphume njengegolide esulungekileyo. Isithando somlilo esivuthayo sihlala silungelwa thina. INkosi yangena eziko ngenxa yethu ngaphandle kwesono. Umnqamlezo weKalvari wawungaphezulu kwesithando somlilo sendoda enye; yayiziko elivutha umlilo, kunye noluntu lonke, kuquka nawe. Wanyamezela umnqamlezo ngenxa yovuyo olwalubekwe phambi kwakhe. Uvuyo yayikukuxolelaniswa nomntu kuye, kubo bonke abakholwayo. Ke, njengeNkosi uYesu Krestu, masijonge ngovuyo kwisithembiso esinikwe ukuba sisisebenzise kuYohane 14: 1-3; xa Esiza kusisa eluzukweni. Lowo weyisayo ndiya kumvumela ukuba ahlale nam etroneni yam IsiTy. 3:21, Amen.
