Ukuqonda Ngempilo Yakho - Ingxenye 3: Tshela uJesu!

Kepha bakhala kuJehova becela usizo, wabeka ubumnyama phakathi kwakho nabaseGibithe; waletha ulwandle phezu kwabo, wabasibekela. Wena wazibonela ngawakho amehlo lokho angakwenza kwabaseGibhithe.” (UJoshuwa 24:7)

Ungawenza kanjani umqondo wento entsha esunguliwe ngaphandle kokuthi ukhulume nomsunguli? Kuyafana nangendalo. Kufanele siqonde izindlela, imicabango nezinjongo zoMdali ukuze siqonde indalo yakhe; ngempela, ukwenza umqondo ngezimpilo zethu.

Yingakho sibheka indaba yabantu bakaNkulunkulu abakhethiwe. Lapho besebugqilini eGibhithe, uNkulunkulu wavusa uMose no-Aroni futhi abantu bakhululwa, kodwa hhayi ngaphambi kokuba abaseGibhithe babahlasele okokugcina futhi babavalele oLwandle Olubomvu. UNkulunkulu wavumela zonke lezi zivivinyo ukuba zakhe ukholo kubantu bakhe futhi abanikeze induduzo yakhe lapho ebakhulula, ukuze bona kanye ububele bukaNkulunkulu buchichime bududuze abanye.

Kodwa qaphela ukuthi lobubele nenduduzo kwafika lapho abantu bakaNkulunkulu ‘bekhala kuJehova becela usizo. Akukho ndawo emlandweni weBhayibheli lapho abantu abangamaHeberu bethandaza njengeqembu baze baya eGibhithe. Yibo ubunzima obabenza bakhala kuNkulunkulu. Kwathi lapho uJehova ebezwa, wathi kuMose: “Hamba masinyane, Mose, ngoba ukukhala kwabantu bami kufikile endlebeni yami.” Kwakungakaze kwenzeke ngaphambili. Akukhona ukuthi u-Abrahama akazange athandaze; kodwa ngokuhlanganyela kwakungakaze kube lolo hlobo lomthandazo olunyakazisa uNkulunkulu kwaze kwaba yilapho abantu bakaNkulunkulu bedlula ebunzimeni.

Futhi yilokho uNkulunkulu akufunayo kimi nawe. Ufuna sibe uhlobo lwabantu abamemezayo, “Ngiyakubonga ngazo zonke izibusiso zakho, kodwa wena unguJehova-Jireh wami; nguwe wedwa umthombo wami. Futhi ukholo lwami lubuthakathaka kancane njengamanje ngoba ngidlula kokuthile; kodwa, Nkulunkulu, ngicela uze ungisize! Nginike amandla okuqhubeka ngikwethembe!”

INkosi uyokunika lawo mandla, noma ngabe kufanele usule izinyembezi; ngoba lapho simbiza, isithembiso sakhe siwukuthi uyokuzwa futhi aphendule imithandazo yethu! Uvumela ubunzima ezimpilweni zethu, ukuze sikwazi ukuza masinyane esihlalweni sakhe somusa futhi sikhale kuye sicela usizo ngesikhathi sokudinga kwethu.

UNkulunkulu uyogijimela kulokho kukhala; Uzokusiza, akududuze, akukhulule. Ngoba ekugcineni, lokho uNkulunkulu akufunayo ngabantu abangeke bangabi naluzwelo, abangeke babeke abanye phansi kodwa abayogcwala ukholo nobubele, ngoba bona ngokwabo bayazi ukuthi kuyini ukuba sendaweni enzima. Ubheke amaKristu afunde imfihlo yokukhala kuNkulunkulu ngenxa yezidingo zawo kanye nangenxa yabanye.

Ekugcineni, singaqonda kangcono indlela yokwenza umqondo ngokuphila! Siyabona ukuthi kusendaweni enzima lapho uNkulunkulu ekhombisa khona amandla akhe, nokuthi wenza mina nawe indoda noma owesifazane afuna sibe yikho. UNkulunkulu akababheki abahluleli. Noma ubani angahlulela omunye umuntu. Eqinisweni, umphakathi ugcwele abagxeki. Kunalokho, uNkulunkulu ufuna abahlengi emhlabeni ababunjwe esithandweni somlilo sosizi, abakwaziyo ukubiza igama likaJesu, nabaphuma ezinkingeni zabo ngokuqonda nangokuqiniseka ukuze batshele omunye umphefumulo ukuthi: INkosi ingenzele mina, ingakwenzela nawe!"
