Uhlelo Lwamahhala Lokufunda nokuthandaza okuhlobene ne UGenesise 2:3

“Izinhliziyo zethu aziphumuli baze bakuthole ukuphumula kuWe.” Akukaze nanini ngaphambili ukuthi abaningi bethu bazizwe ukungahlaliseki u-Augustine akuchaze ngalo musho odumile. Kepha siyini isisombululo ekushodeni kwethu kokuphumula kwangempela? Njengoba lolu hlelo lwezinsuku ezintathu luzobonisa, ikhambi ngokwengxenye lisekubukeni umkhuba wasendulo weSabatha ngelinye ilensi — ngokusebenzisa i-lens ka “Wena” —uJesu — umthombo wethu wokugcina wokuthula.

Ngoba inani lababekhona livame ukwanda ngeSonto lapho amaKristu agubha khona Uvuko lukaJesu, impelasonto yePhasika imelela esinye sezikhathi ezinomvuzo kakhulu - nezinselele - zonyaka kubaholi besonto. Sidale lolu hlelo olulalelwayo lwe-YouVersion Rest Plan ukuze sisize izisebenzi zesonto zigubhe konke lokho uNkulunkulu akwenzile, ziphumule emsebenzini owenziwe ukulungisa nokuwenza, futhi silungise kabusha inkonzo ezayo.

Abaningi bethu basebenza ngokweqile futhi bekhathele ngokuphelele, ngakho-ke umqondo weSabatha wawungeke ubaluleke kakhulu. Ukuhlonipha iSabatha kusho “ukuligcina lingcwele,” futhi elithi ingcwele lisho nje “ukuhlukaniswa.” Isabatha lethu kufanele libukeke lahlukile kunezinye izinsuku eziyisithupha zeviki lethu. Kuleli Cebo, sizoxoxa ngokuthi kuyini, yini okungeyona, ukuthi kubukeka kanjani namuhla, nokuthola ukuphumula kwethu kweqiniso kuJesu.

Ukusebenza ngokweqile nokuba matasatasa kuvamise ukunconywa kakhulu ezweni esiphila kulo, kanti-ke nokuthola isikhathi sokuphumula kubuye kube yinselelo.Kubalulekile ukuthi sizifundise ukuphumula ukuze singathi sesiqedile izinhlelo zethu ngempumelelo, sisale singenamandla okukhuthaza labo esibathandayo nokuqedela kahle imigomo esizibekele yona. Kulezinsuku ezinhlanu ezilandelayo ake sizifundise ukuphumula bese sikwenza futhi lokhu esikufundile.

Ukutadisha ngemva kokutadisha kusitshela ukuthi ukuphumula kubalulekile empilweni yethu engokomzimba, engokwengqondo, nengokomzwelo. Ukuphumula kubaluleke kakhulu kuNkulunkulu waze wakwenza kwaba ngomunye wemithetho Yakhe. Siyazi ukuthi kufanele siphumule—ngakho kungani singaphumuli? Kulolu Hlelo olulula lwezinsuku ezi-5, sizobheka ukuthi kungani, nini, kuphi, futhi kanjani, futhi nobani imbala.

Ukushintsha akulula, kodwa kungenzeka, futhi. Ukuqala imikhuba emincane embalwa kungashintsha indlela ozibona ngayo namuhla futhi uguquke ube ngumuntu ofuna ukuba nguye kusasa. Lolu Hlelo lweBhayibheli lwe- Life.Church luhamba emiBhalweni ngesifinyezo esilula sokwenza imikhuba emihle yansuku zonke ehlalayo.

Kulolu hlelo lokufunda lwezinsuku ezingu-7, u-Beth Moore usebenzisa imibuzo evela emiBhalweni ukukuholela ebudlelwaneni obuseduze nalowo okwazi kangcono. Uphawu lokubuza ekugcineni komusho lukhuluma ngelukuluku, isithakazelo, futhi mhlawumbe nokungabaza. Umbuzo uyisimemo sokuba sengozini, ebudlelwaneni. Ibhayibheli alikugwemi ukumenywa okunjalo. Ngokuphindaphindiwe sibona abantu bakaNkulunkulu bebuza imibuzo kuMdali wabo. Sibona futhi uNkulunkulu wendawo yonke ebuza imibuzo ngendalo Yakhe. Usesho luyinselele yokwamukela isimemo.  Funda ukumba eZwini, ukuphendula imibuzo kaNkulunkulu, nokuletha imibuzo yakho phambi Kwakhe. Vumela uphawu lokubuza kube ibalazwe elikukhomba ebudlelwaneni obuseduze noBaba.

Njengoba kunezibopho eziningi neziphazamiso ezilwela ukunaka kwethu, abaningi kakhulu bethu bakhe imijikelezo yokuphumula okungenampilo. Ngenxa yalokho, siyazigqilaza, siyalwa futhi sizikhandle ngokumelene nenhloso kaNkulunkulu ngezimpilo zethu. Kulolu hlelo, sibizelwe emsebenzini wamabomu wokuzihlola, okusisiza ukuthi sidlulele ekuphileni okunenjongo nokuqhubekayo noJesu.

Phakathi nenhlekelele nokungaqiniseki, abaningi bethu balangazelela ukubuyela esimeni esijwayelekile. Kodwa kuthiwani uma kuyisikhathi sokudala okujwayelekile kangcono kunalokho? Kulolu Hlelo LweBhayibheli Lwezinsuku Ezingu-7, sizothola ukuthi singayeka kanjani ukufuna ukulawula futhi siqale ukufuna uNkulunkulu.

I-Evangelical Alliance Week of Prayer (WOP) iwuhlelo olubhekwa emhlabeni wonke kodwa oluvame ukubonwa yi-Europe yonke ngezinto ezihlinzekwa yi-European Evangelical Alliance. I-WOP 2022 yenzeka ngaphansi kwendikimba ethi "iSabatha." Kuzo zonke izinsuku eziyisishiyagalombili abafundi bayamenywa ukuba bagxile esicini esisodwa seSabatha: ubuwena, ukuhlinzekwa, ukuphumula, ububele, ukukhumbula, injabulo, ukupha, nethemba. Sithandazela ukuthi lensiza izokusiza ukuthi (uphinde) uthole impilo ehambisana nesigqi sikaNkulunkulu!
