E 'ngoe ea mehlala e metlehali ea kamoo molao oa tumelo o fetang molao oa tlhaho ke pale ea Jesu a tsamaea ka tumelo holim'a metsi le kamoo Petrose a ileng a tsoa ka sekepeng 'me a tsamaea ka tumelo holim'a metsi., ho fihlela…
Ho tsamaya ka tumelo hodima metsi
Yare ha barutuwa ba bona Jesu a tsamaya hodima lewatle, ba ne ba tshwenyehile, ho bua, Ke moea; mme ba howa ke tshabo. Empa Jesu a phakisa a bua le bona, ho bua, E-ba sebete; ke 'na; se tshoheng. Mme Petrose a Mo araba, a re, Morena, ha e le Wena, ntaele hore ke tle ho wena hodima metsi. Mme A re, Tlo. Yare ha Petrose a theoha sekepeng, a tsamaya hodima metsi, ho ea ho Jesu. Empa ha a bona moea o foka, o ne a tshohile; le ho qala ho teba, a lla, ho bua, Morena, mpholose. Mme hang Jesu A otlolla letsoho la Hae, mme a mo tshwara, mme a re ho yena, Oho wa tumelo e nyenyane, ke ka baka lang o ile wa belaela? Yare ha ba kena sekepeng, moya wa kgaotsa (Mattheu 14:26-32).
Ha ke nahane hore ho tla ba le motho, ya neng a tla leka ho tsamaya ka tumelo hodima metsi. Hobane ha o kena ka metsing, u lebeletse hore seo se tla teba 'me se ama fatše, ka lebaka la molao oa tlhaho oa matla a khoheli.
Seo u ka se etsang ke ho phaphamala holim'a metsi, empa o tsamaya ka tumelo hodima metsi? Che, seo ha se kgonehe, ho ea ka melao ea tlhaho ea bokahohle le kelello ea nama.
Empa ha re sheba pale ea Petrose, e a re bontsha, hore hoa khoneha ho tsamaea ka tumelo holim'a metsi. Petro o ile a ba le sebete sa go tšwa ka sekepeng seo ka tumelo. Tshimolohong tumelo ya hae (ho Jesu le mantsoeng a Hae) e ile ea hlōla molao oa tlhaho oa matla a khoheli. Hobane molao oa tlhaho oa matla a khoheli o re: “o tla teba”.
Jesu o na le matla a ho qetela
Jesu o na le matla a ho qetela, ho bolelang hore molao wa Hae o ka hodima molao ofe kapa ofe, ho kenyeletsa le melao ea tlhaho.Ke kahoo Jesu a ileng a tsamaea ka tumelo holim’a metsi. Ho sa tsotellehe hore na leoatle le ne le le bohale hakae le hore na maqhubu a ne a le maholo hakae, Jesu o ile a tsoela pele ho tsamaea ka tumelo. Jesu o ne a tseba hore na ke mang lemang Ntate oa Hae.
Peter believed that Jesus was the Son of God and that nothing was impossible to Him. Peter believed and trusted the Word of God. And because Peter believed, Peter acted upon the words of Jesus and stepped out of the boat in faith. What a faith!
There was nothing in the visible realm, that proved or guaranteed him, that he could walk on the water. He only saw Jesus doing it and Peter trusted in the words of Jesus.
By seeing Jesus doing it and by believing the words of Jesus, Peter walked according to the law of faith and stepped out of the boat in faith.E, ee, by faith Peter could indeed walk on water!
The law of faith worked; the natural laws became inferior to the law of faith.
If Peter just kept on walking by faith, by the law of faith, Petrose a ka be a ile a tsoela pele ho tsamaea ka tumelo holim’a metsi ’me a ka be a ile a khutlela sekepeng ntle le ho rotha metsi.Empa Petrose ha aa ka a etsa joalo.
Pelaelo e senya tumelo
Kelello ea Petrose e ile ea sebetsa ’me Petrose a qala ho sheba moea oa sefefo ’me maqhubu le lipelaelo tsa kena kelellong ea hae. O ile a qala ho beha mabaka ka lebaka la pelaelo eo, ’me qetellong Petrose o ile a nka khato ka lebaka la pelaelo eo. Petrose o ile a etsa hore likelello tsa hae li tsitse eaba o tšoha eaba o qala ho teba ka metsing.
Ka lebaka la pelaelo le tšabo tseo Petrose a ileng a li lumella kelellong ea hae ea nama ’me a nahana ka tsona, molao wa tumelo o ile wa hlakolwa. Molao oa tlhaho oa matla a khoheli o ile oa nka sebaka ’me Petrose a qala ho teba ka metsing.
Moya oo wa sefefo o ne o le teng ka nako eo, empa Petrose ha a ka a hlokomela qalong. Hobane Petrose o ne a shebile feela Jesu ha a ntse a tsamaea holim’a metsi ’me Petrose o ne a batla ho etsa se tšoanang le seo Jesu a se entseng. Ka lebaka la ’nete ea hore Jesu o ne a ka e etsa ’me Jesu a re ho Petrose a ka e etsa, Petrose a tsoa ka sekepeng ’me a tsamaea ka tumelo holim’a metsi. Ho fihlela Petrose a sheba boemo ba lehodimo, maemo le pelaelo (tshabo) e bolaile molao oa tumelo ’me molao oa tlhaho oa matla a khoheli oa senya molao oa tumelo.
Tsoa ka sekepeng 'me u 'ne u tsamaee ka tumelo eseng ka pono
Bonang, moya wa hae o iphahamisang ha o a loka ho yena: empa ya lokileng o tla phela ka tumelo ya hae (Ba tsilatsila 2:4)
Ha u ho hlaha hape, o lokela ho tsamaya ka tumelo ka mora Moya e seng ka pono. O tsamaya ka seo Lentswe le se bolelang mme o bua Lentswe la Modimo hore le be teng.Ka hona o tlameha ho tseba Lentsoe le ho nchafatsa kelello ea hau ka Lentsoe la Molimo, e le hore kelello ea hao e tsamaisane le Lentsoe la Molimo.
Ha ua lokela ho tataisoa ke maemo, Maemo, seo lingaka li se buang, seo moruo o se buang. Ha lea lokela ho tataisoa ke likelello tsa lōna le mantsoe a lefatše 'me le a lumele. Sebakeng seo, u lokela ho busoa ke Lentsoe la Molimo le ho bua lintho tse sieo joalokaha eka li teng, 'me u buse melao ea tlhaho le mantsoe a lefatše.. Hobane ba lokileng, ba entsweng ba lokileng ho Kreste mme e le balatedi ba Hae, o tla phela ka tumelo.
Sehloohong se latelang, taba ‘Tumelo ke eng?” ho tla buisanoa ka tsona.
‘E be letsoai la lefatše’
