Uhlelo Lwamahhala Lokufunda nokuthandaza okuhlobene ne NgokukaMathewu 1:21

Ukucabanga ngezehlakalo zangoLwesihlanu LwePhasika ezilandiswa ngabalingiswa bezindaba zokuzalwa kukaJesu. Ukuhlola okucabangayo kwesimangaliso sokuzalwa kukaJesu kanye nomhlatshelo wokubethelwa esiphambanweni.

Ithemba, uthando, ukuthula, intokozo. Lawamagama akhulunywa kakhulu ngesikhathi samaholide, kodwa ingabe siyakhumbula ukuthi yingani?  Indaba kaKhisimuzi yindaba yokuthi uNkulunkulu wangenela kanjani kumlando ngokuzwela kukaJesu. Izimpilo zika Mariya noJosefa, nabelusi zaguqulwa kakhulu ngalesisenzo. Bathola ithemba, uthando, ukuthula, kanye nentokozo; masikhumbule ndawonye ukuthi nathi singkuthola kanjani lokhu ngoJesu. 

Yonke indaba enhle inenguquko- yesikhathi esingalindelekile esishintsha yonke into. Enye yezinto ezinkulu ezingaqondakali eBhayibhelini indaba kaKhisimusi. Ezinsukwini ezinhlanu ezizayo, sizohlola ukuthi lo mcimbi owodwa uwuguqule kanjani umhlaba nokuthi ungayishintsha kanjani impilo yakho namuhla.

Kuyisikhathi sonyaka esimangalisayo kakhulu, kodwa sizithola simatasa ngamaholidi. KuloKhisimusi, kunganjani uma sibuyisa lesimanga? Kule pulani yeBhayibheli yezinsuku ezinhlanu ehambisana nochungechunge lukaMfundisi Craig Groeschel, Isipho, sizothola ukuthi izipho ezintathu izazi ezazinika uJesu, zingasiholela kanjani endaweni yesimanga nendumiso namhlanje.

Ku Isaya 9: 6, siyabona ukuthi uJesu unguMluleki omangalisayo, uNkulunkulu onamandla, uYise ongunaphakade,, neNkosi yokuthula. Kule pulani yezinsuku ezinhlanu, sizogubha ukufika kukaJesu ngokufunda ngamagama akhe ahlukene, nokuthi anomthelela muni ezimpilweni zethu namuhla.

Sigcwele ukulangazelela njengoba sincika kulesi sikhathi sokugubha ngenhloso yokulalela inhliziyo kaNkulunkulu. Hlanganyela nathi amasonto angu-4 njengathi: Bheka Ubuhle; Yephula Izithiyo; Yenza Igumbi; futhi Ziyizimanga zikaNkulunkulu. Njengazo zonke izinto ezihamba phambili ekuphileni, lolu hambo luhamba kahle kakhulu nabanye—ngakho bamba umngani noma ababili kanye nomuzwa wakho wokumangala bese ungena kwi nkathi ye-Advent.

Lemikhuleko yokuzindla emifushane ikusiza ngokuthi uhlale uzinze ezenzakalweni ezingalindelekile nezibalulekile emlandweni: ukuthi uNkulunkulu yena siqu waba ngomunye wethu. Umthandazo ngamunye ubhalwe ngu David Mathis, inhloko yomdidiyeli kwa desiringGod.org ongumfundisi e Cities Church e Saint Paul, Minnesota.

Siyethemba kuloKhisimuzi "ukwanga" kuzoletha imicabango emihle ekhaya lakho kulesizini! ezayo!

Ezinsukwini eziyishumi nambili ezilandelayo, sizothatha uhambo lokuxoxa ngendaba kaKhisimusi sithole hhayi kuphela nje ukuthi kungani kuyindaba enkulu eyake yaxoxwa, kodwa futhi kungani uKhisimusi kungowowonke umuntu!

Sonke sifuna ukukholelwa ukuthi kukhona okungcono okuzayo. Futhi uNkulunkulu uyazi ukuthi sidinga okungaphezu kwezipho ezibekwa ngaphansi kwesihlahla ukuze sithole injabulo. Esikudingayo ithemba.

Indlela yemibuzo nezimpendulo ingasetshenziselwa ukukhuleka kwemindeni, ingxoxo yeqembu, nokuzifundela.

Ukuzalwa kukaKristu, ukufika Kwakhe, kuphawula icebo likaNkulunkulu lokuhlengwa kwethu. KuKristu, sibona isithombe esigcwele sethemba likaNkulunkulu, ukuthula, injabulo nothando.
