Uba kanjani UmakhelwaneIsampula
Munye Umsebenzi Womzimba no Mphefumulo
Sivame ukuphila izimpilo zethu phakathi kweminyango. Singena ngomnyango wesonto ukuze sikhonze, emnyango wehhovisi ukuze senze izinto, bese singena ezindlini zethu ukuze sikuvale konke. Izolo, sikhulume ngemfundiso yenkolo ngemuva kwalokhu. Kuwukujwayela kwethu ukuhlukanisa ngokomzimba nangokomoya. Kodwa uJesu wakha ibhuloho. Uthe enye ifana nenye. Wathandazela ukuba intando kaNkulunkulu yenziwe emhlabeni njengasezulwini. Ngakho-ke, bekungabukeka kanjani ukuvula iminyango futhi uvumele ukuthunywa okukodwa—imiyalo kaJesu emibili emikhulu—kusebenze kuyo yonke ingxenye yempilo yakho? Uzophila kanjani ngomgomo wokuqala othi Indlela Yokuba ngumakhelwane isimiso? Sihamba kakhulu ngosizo lomzimba kanye nomphefumulo.
Besicela uMoya oNgcwele ukuthi aveze umsebenzi wethu oyingqayizivele. UJesu wayewazi umsebenzi Wakhe. Wasuka ekubeni ngumbazi ojulukayo waba nguMesiya ngokukaLuka 4:16-21. Ngemva kwezinsuku zakhe ezingu-40 zokuthunjelwa indlala, incindezelo, kanye nokoma ogwadule, uJesu wafika edolobheni langakubo, wahamba waya phambi kwethempeli, futhi wamemezela ukuthi kungani eza emhlabeni evela ezulwini: ukuletha izindaba ezinhle kwabampofu, ukumemezela ukuthi abathunjwa bayakukhululwa, nezimpumputhe zibone, abacindezelwe bakhululwe, nokuthi isikhathi somusa kaJEHOVA sesifikile.
Ubonile yini ukuthi umzabalazo kaJesu ehlane ufana nomsebenzi wakhe? Qaphela ukuthi uJesu wathola amandla kuMoya oNgcwele? Uyabona ukuthi umsebenzi Wakhe uhlanganisa okomoya kanye nokwenyama? Ekugcineni, qaphela Akazange athi, “Ngize ukuzokwenza konke lokhu.” Kufana nokuthi Wathi, “Ngize ukuzomemezela konke lokhu okuzokwenzeka.” Kuzokwenzeka kanjani? Lapho sithatha amandla afanayo kaMoya oNgcwele ukwenza imiyalo kaJesu. Ngoba akusiwo umsebenzi Wakhe kuphela. Kungumsebenzi wethu, uMyalelo Omkhulu. Futhi, akukhona nje okungokomoya. Kungokomzimba futhi.
Usuzozwa ngoMfundisi uCraig futhi ubukele indaba emfushane emayelana nabantu ababili abajwayelekile abamatasatasa ngosizo lomzimba nomphefumulo. Njengoba ubheka, thandaza ngale mibuzo: Ngubani engimaziyo noma engixhumana naye odinga usizo lukamoya? Ingabe banezidingo ezibonakalayo noma ezingokomzwelo engingaziboni? Ubani engimaziyo odinga usizo lomzimba? Ingabe banezidingo ezingokomoya engingaziboni? UMoya oNgcwele angangisebenzisa kanjani empilweni yabo? Ngingawuyeka kanjani umzimba nomphefumulo kusebenze ndawonye endleleni engilandela futhi ngihlanganyele uKristu ezindaweni engichitha isikhathi? Ingabe ngiye ngakushaya indiva ukoma kwami ngokomzimba nangokomoya? Ngike ngaba “nesikhathi ehlane,” njengoKristu, esingakhomba ingxenye yami eyingqayizivele yoMsebenzi Omkhulu? Ingabe ngisebenzise amandla avela kuMoya oNgcwele ukuze ngikwazi ngempela ukwenza konke lokhu?
Isinyathelo sanamuhla: Buka ividiyo. Bese, uphuma endaweni yakho yokunethezeka namuhla. Uma njalo unikeza usizo olungokwenyama noma olungokomzwelo, cela ukuthandaza nothile. Uma uhlala uthandaza noma ufakaza, nikeza usizo olubambekayo. Kodwa ungakwenzi kanye nje. Qala ukuphila kanje.
Isimiso Sokuqala: Sihamba kakhulu ngosizo lomzimba nomphefumulo.
Ivangeli —Izindaba ezinhle zikaNkulunkulu—zithembisa inkululeko yawo wonke umuntu. Silandela isibonelo esabekwa uJesu: ukunakekela kokubili umzimba nomphefumulo. Sishumayela iVangeli ngokungaguquki ngenkathi sibuyisela futhi sithuthukisa izingxenye zemvelo nezenhlalo zemiphakathi yethu.
Mayelana naloluHlelo
Kuthiwani uma kungadingeki sihambe ibanga elide ukuze sisondele kubantu abakude noNkulunkulu? Kuthiwani ukube amaKristu ayengomakhelwane abangcono kakhulu? Ingabe umgwaqo wakho ungashintsha? Ingabe izulu laliyogcwala ngokwengeziwe? Esikhathini eside esidlule, umholi wenkolo wabuza uJesu indlela yokungena ezulwini. Ujesu waphendula ngombuzo, kwase kuba indaba kaMakhelwane Omuhle. Akumangalisi, eminyakeni eyingu-2000 kamuva indaba kaJesu isachaza indlela yomakhelwane. Joyina uMfundisi Craig Groeschel kanye ne-Life.Church kumhlahlandlela osebenzayo, ogcwele indaba wokuhlanganyela nomakhelwane bakho futhi ubathande njengoba uzithanda wena. Kodwa ungamane uliyunde—Iphile!
