Ukuvela Kwezithelo.

Ohambweni lwethu lwencwadi kaEzra, sibonile ukuthi uNkulunkulu uthembekile ukugcwalisa izithembiso Zakhe zokuhlenga nokubuyisela ngoJesu, nokuthi nguJesu, ngoMoya oNgcwele, osinika amandla okwethembeka kulokho esikuthunywe uNkulunkulu. umsebenzi. Namuhla, ake sibheke ukuthi ukwethembeka kuka-Ezra endimeni uNkulunkulu amnikeza yona kwaphumela kanjani ekubeni nezithelo ezinkulu. Impilo kaKristu kithi, njengoba sincike Kuye ngomthandazo, esenza sikwazi ukuthela ekufezeni izinjongo zikaNkulunkulu ngathi.

UEzra 1–6 ukhuluma ngendaba yokubuya kweqembu lokuqala labadingiswa abangamaJuda eJerusalema kanye nokwakhiwa kabusha kweThempeli. U-Ezra 7–10 ubhala ngokubuya kweqembu lesibili labadingisiwe, ngaphansi kuka-Ezra, kanye nenguquko engokomoya eyalandela. Lapho ebuya, u-Ezra wagxila ekubuyiseleni iZwi likaNkulunkulu ezinhliziyweni zabantu abahlubukayo. Amadoda akwaJuda ayeshade nabesifazane abakhonza izithombe ababebadukisa ekukhulekeleni uNkulunkulu. U-Ezra wasabela ngokushesha nangokunamandla ekungalalelini kwabantu, ebasiza ukuba basuse imikhuba yesono emphakathini wabo. Lokhu kwaholela emvuselelweni yesizwe. Umsebenzi ka-Ezra wokwethembeka waba nezithelo ezinkulu: abantu bakaNkulunkulu babuyiselwa ebuhlotsheni obulungile Naye.

Konke lokhu kubonisa umsebenzi kaKristu ezimpilweni zethu futhi. Ubunye bethu obungokomoya noJesu budala kithi isifiso esisha sobungcwele, noNkulunkulu, nezulu. Akukhona ukuthi asikwazi ukona. Ukuthi asifuni ukona. Kungenzeka ukuthi awukubonanga ngale ndlela, kodwa isifiso sakho sokungoni siwuphawu lokuthi uphila impilo enezithelo. Ukuthela kwethu kokomoya kube sekukapakela ekutheleleni okungokoqobo, lapho sisebenzisa khona izipho uNkulunkulu asinike zona ukubusisa labo abasizungezile. Cela uNkulunkulu ukuthi akuvulele amehlo akho emathubeni onawo njengamanje okusebenzela umndeni wakho, omakhelwane, noma umphakathi wesonto. Cabangela indawo yakho yokusebenza njengendawo ongathela kuyo izithelo zoMbuso kaNkulunkulu. Isiphi isinyathelo sakho esilandelayo? Impilo entsha esiyithola kuKristu ingaqinisekisa ukuthi umsebenzi wethu wenziwa, hhayi ngokukhandleka kokuzimela, kodwa ekwethembeni okuphumuzayo okuncike kuNkulunkulu okuholela ekutheleleni okumise okwevangeli, njengoba sibona endabeni ka-Ezra.
