Amandla omthandazo asoloko ejongelwa phantsi. Kuyo yonke iminyaka, Umthandazo uye watyeshelwa kubomi bamaKristu amaninzi. Kuba ukuba kukho into engathandekiyo kwaye inzima ngokwaneleyo, kodwa ukukruqula kunye neenjongo ezinqwenelekayo azifikelelwa, ayihoywa kwaye ityhalelwa ecaleni. Kodwa ithini iBhayibhile ngamandla omthandazo?
Ngaba ukuthandaza kuyadika?
Ukuthandaza kudla ngokugqalwa njengento ekruqulayo, njengokufunda nokufundisisa iBhayibhile (ILizwi likaThixo). Ukuthandaza kwenza abantu balale. Ngokukhawuleza xa abantu bezama ukuthandaza, iingqondo zabo ziyabhadula kwaye iingcamango ezahlukahlukeneyo ngobomi babo bemihla ngemihla zithatha indawo kwaye zitsale ingqalelo yabo kude noThixo.
AmaKristu amaninzi akakwazi ukunikela ingqalelo yaye akufumanisa kunzima ukuchitha ixesha ethandaza.
Emva koko 5 imizuzu, Bayixoxa imicimbi yabo noBawo kwaye badlula kuluhlu lwabo lweminqweno kwaye abazi ukuba bathini kwakhona. Baba nobuthongo kwaye bayekele ekudinweni nasekuthandeni kwenyama yabo. Ngokuba inyama ayinako kwaye ayinakuthandaza. Kungenxa yokuba umthandazo awuyondli inyama, kodwa umoya. Yiyo loo nto amaKristu amaninzi eyihlehlisa imithandazo yawo okanye engathandazi kwaphela.
Umyalelo wokuthandaza
Kukho abashumayeli, abathi akufuneki ubeke ixesha kwaye wenze ixesha lokuthandaza kuba uthetha noThixo imini yonke. Kodwa ngokushumayela lo myalezo, AmaKristu aye angenzi nto kwaye adikidiki emthandazweni kwaye akayiboni imfuneko kunye namandla omthandazo.
Kanjalo, uhlala unxibelelana noYesu noYise ngoMoya oyiNgcwele, kwaye unxibelelana nabo. Kwakhona uYesu wayesoloko ekubudlelane noYise. Nangona kunjalo… UYesu wazikhwelisa ukuze achithe ixesha yedwa noYise emthandazweni, kuba uYesu wayewazi amandla omthandazo.
Ukuba uYesu wayezinkile ukuba abe yedwa noYise emthandazweni, sobeka phi na ke ukumlandela uYesu’ Umzekelo kwaye sizimise ukuba sichithe ixesha kunye noBawo emthandazweni? ngaphandle koko, kuMateyu 6:6-8, Kwakhona uYesu wasinika umyalelo wokuba sithandaze.
Kutheni ukubaluleka namandla omthandazo kujongelwa phantsi?
Ukubaluleka namandla omthandazo adla ngokujongelwa phantsi, kuba asingabo bonke abashumayeli neenkokeli zecawa uzelwe ngokutsha nangokomoya, kodwa okwenyama.
Ngenxa yokuba bezenyama ababoni ukubaluleka kunye namandla omthandazo. Ke ngoko abathethi ngomthandazo kwaye abagxininisi ukubaluleka kunye namandla omthandazo.
Ngenxa yenyani, ukuba iinkokeli ezininzi zecawa azigxininisi ukubaluleka namandla omthandazo kwaye makube njalo, amakholwa akakuthatheli ngqalelo ukubaluleka namandla omthandazo nokuba makube njalo.
Kodwa isiseko sokholo siso, ngaphandle kokwazi iLizwi, umthandazo. Yonke into iyavela kwaye ijikeleza emthandazweni!
Ukuba uyalazi iLizwi, unokuthandaza iLizwi kwaye uthandaze emva kwentando kaThixo. Ukuba uthandaza ngokwentando kaThixo ke uThixo uya kuwenza amandla amazwi akhe.
Lonke utshintsho luqala ngomthandazo. Ngoko ke, lixesha lokuba amaKristu afumane ixabiso, ukubaluleka, kunye namandla omthandazo kwaye uvuke kwaye ungene kwidabi lomoya kwaye ulwele uBukumkani bukaThixo. Lo nto, Makwenziwe ukuthanda kwakhe emhlabeni njengokuba kuseZulwini nokuba uBukumkani baKhe buya kuza kulo mhlaba.
Zithini iziphumo zobomi bomthandazo obuhlwempuzekileyo nobuneziphene?
Iziphumo zobomi bomthandazo obuthathaka ziyabonakala kubomi babantu. Lonke usizi, intlupheko, nesiphithiphithi ehlabathini namhlanje, ukwanda kobutshijolo, ukungahloneli Thixo, kwaye uwexuko ubukhulu becala lubangelwa kubomi obuhlwempuzekileyo nobuneziphene kumthandazo wamaKrestu (ngoobani ibandla).
Inkohliso kasathana ebandleni
Kuyo yonke le minyaka icawa iye yawisa ibhola. Umtyholi uphumelele ukulahlekisa ibandla kwaye wabangela ukuba amakholwa amaninzi ashiye umendo wobulungisa angene kwindlela yenyama yehlabathi..
Umtyholi wababangela ukuba bacinge ngeziqu zabo; inkanuko nenkanuko yenyama yabo, impumelelo yezinto eziphathekayo, kunye nezinto zehlabathi.
AmaKristu amaninzi achitha ixesha elininzi kwinkonzo (okwethutyana) izinto zeli hlabathi kunezinto zobukumkani bukaThixo.
Iintlanganiso zemithandazo azidumanga kakhulu phakathi kwamakholwa kwaye azitsali amakholwa amaninzi.
Hayi, abantu kunokuba bacule iingoma, yonwatyiswa, kwaye ube nexesha elimnandi.
Yiyo loo nto ezicaweni ezininzi iintlanganiso zemithandazo ziye zathatyathelwa indawo lunqulo nokudumisa.
Abantu bayawuthanda umculo, ukucula, nimbonge uNdikhoyo, kuba oko kuyabavuyisa.
Iinkokeli ezininzi zeecawa zibethelela ukubaluleka kokudumisa nokunqula yaye zenza amaKristu akholelwe ukuba kukho amandla ekuculweni kweengoma, apho iingoma ezininzi zithetha nge (nzima) ubomi, iingxaki, neentsizi zamakholwa, kwaye ke ngoko amakholwa aba ngumbindi weengoma.
Kodwa oku kwakhona bubuxoki bukasathana, ukuba iinkokeli ezininzi zecawa kunye namaKristu zikholelwa.
Ngaba ukucula kubaluleke ngakumbi kwaye kunamandla kunomthandazo?
Ukucula akubalulekanga kwaye kunamandla kunomthandazo. Nangona abaninzi benza ukuba bakholelwe ukuba kunjalo. Indinyana yeBhayibhile edla ngokucatshulwa, ukubethelela ukubaluleka namandla okucula kuyinxalenye apho uPawulos noSilas babekhonkxiwe entolongweni baza baculela iNkosi iingoma..
Bamculela uYehova iingoma, kwabakho inyikima enkulu, yawa imixokelelwane, zavuleka iingcango, basinda. Nangona kunjalo, abafundi kwaye bagxininise inxalenye yokuqala, apho ithi:
Ezinzulwini zobusuku uPawulos noSilas babethandaza, Bavuma iindumiso kuThixo: babeva amabanjwa (IZenzo 16:25)
Inxalenye ababethandaza kuyo ayigxininisi okanye ixutyushwe.
Amakholwa aculayo ayisosisongelo kubukumkani bukasathana. Yiyo loo nto usathana engenanto yokoyika ngamaKristu aculayo.
Usathana uvele ancume ahleke acinge, “Mabacule baze bahlanganisane, ubudlelane, kwaye zizonwabele.”
Akumangalisi, ukuba iindibano zokudumisa nonqulo kunye neekonsathi azifumani nakuphi na ukuxhathisa ngokomoya kwaye azihlaselwe ngokwasemoyeni ngendlela iintlanganiso zomthandazo ezihlaselwa ngayo ngokomoya..
Umthandazo welungisa uye wasebenza ngamandla
Hayi, umtyholi uyawoyika amaKristu, abakholwa ngenene nabalaziyo iLizwi balivumayo iLizwi. Kwaye eyona nto yoyika kakhulu usathana ngamaKrestu athandazayo, abo bathandaza ngokoMoya. AmaKristu aphilileyo, abo bathandaza ngokwenyama, azithathwa njengesoyikiso. Kungenxa yokuba amaKristu enyameni agxile kubo nakwindawo ebangqongileyo nasekwakheni ubukumkani bawo.
Umtyholi uyawoyika amaKristu athandazayo, abahleli kuKristu kwaye bathandaza bephuma kuYe (ilizwi) emva koMoya. Bayingozi kubukumkani bakhe. Ngoko ke, usathana ubeka iinzame zokuzisusa nokubavala umlomo.
Umtyholi ubaphelisa njani kwaye abathulise? Ngeziphazamiso nokubagcina bexakekile yaye benikel’ ingqalelo kwimibandela yehlabathi ukuze bangabi nalo ixesha lokuthandaza.
Ngokukhawuleza xa abantu bethatha isigqibo sokuthandaza, usathana uphosa izithintelo neziphazamiso endleleni yabo, njengomzekelo, ifowuni ekhalayo, umyalezo obhaliweyo, intsimbi yomnyango, ilungu losapho libuza okanye lidinga into ethile, njl. Usathana uya kwenza nantoni na ukuphazamisa nokuphazamisa kwaye amise ikholwa elithandazayo.
Umtyholi usebenza phakathi kwabanye emphefumlweni kwaye yiyo loo nto usathana eya kuphosa iingcinga ezahlukeneyo zenyama ezingqondweni zamakholwa, eqinisekisa ukuba bayalimisa okanye balirhoxise ixesha labo lokuthandaza.
Xa ikholwa liqalisa ukuthandaza, usathana uya kuphosa iingcinga engqondweni yomntu, nto leyo eya kwenza umntu abhadule, ukuze loo mntu abe nobunzima ekuzinziseni emthandazweni.
Ngexesha lomthandazo, umtyholi uya kuzama ukumkhupha umntu emoyeni amse enyameni, ngokufaka iingcinga zenyama engqondweni yekholwa ezigxile kwimiba yenyama kunye nokuchuma komntu ngokwakhe..
Umtyholi uya kubonelela ngezityhilelo zobuxoki nezithembiso, ezo zonke zigxile kwimpumelelo yomntu. Ewe, usathana uya kwenza konke okusemandleni akhe ukwenza ikholwa ligxile kubukumkani balo ukuze ikholwa elithandazayo libushiye lodwa ubukumkani balo., kwaye umtyholi unokuqhubeka, ngaphandle kokuphazamiseka kwekholwa elithandazayo kwaye andise ubukumkani bakhe.
Xa umntu esehlelwa zezi zinto, ke usathana usenamandla ebomini bomntu kwaye usamlawula umntu.
Yiyo, ke ngoko, ixesha lokuvuka. Ukuze amaKristu avuke ngokomoya kwaye abone into eyenziwa nguMtyholi kweli hlabathi.
Kungexesha, ukuze oonyana neentombi zikaThixo babe nokusebenza kunye noThixo, UYesu, kwaye uMoya oyiNgcwele umisela uBukumkani bukaThixo kulo mhlaba kunye nemfazwe echasene nesono nokufa, kwaye ayitshabalalise imisebenzi yobumnyama.
UYesu wamoyisa njani umtyholi?
Ngaba uYesu wamoyisa umtyholi entlango ngokuculela iNkosi iingoma?? Xa uYesu wazilungiselela ukuzalisekisa okukhulu umsebenzi wokuhlangula kuluntu, Ngaba uYesu wayecula iingoma kwibandla umyezo waseGetsemane? Hayi! UYesu wamoyisa wamoyisa umtyholi ngeLizwi likaThixo.
Kumyezo waseGetsemane, UYesu waloyisa utshaba lwakhe; uloyiko ngokuthandaza.
Ngelo xesha, ufika uYesu nabo kumhlatyana ekuthiwa yiGetsemane, Athi kubafundi bakhe, Hlala apha wena, ngelixa ndisiya kuthandaza phaya (UMateyu 26:36, Phawula 14:32)
UYesu wawufeza umsebenzi wakhe ngomthandazo
UYesu wachitha ixesha elininzi kunye noYise. Wayedla ngokuzimisa aye kwindawo ezolileyo ukuze achithe ixesha yedwa noBawo. Yiyo loo nto uYesu wakwaziyo ukuphumeza umsebenzi kaThixo nokuzalisekisa icebo likaThixo ngobomi baKhe.
Ezindulule ke izihlwele, Wenyuka waya kuthandaza entabeni ngasese: kwakuhlwa, Wayelapho yedwa (UMateyu 14:23, Phawula 6:46)
Ekuseni, ukuvuka ekuseni kakhulu ngaphambi kobusuku, Waphuma, yemka yaya endaweni eyintlango, wathandaza apho (Phawula 1:35)
Yena ke yena wemka waya entlango, wathandaza (ULuka 5:16)
Kwathi ke ngaloo mihla, waphuma, waya kuthandaza entabeni, bamana ubusuku bonke bethandaza kuThixo (ULuka 6:12)
Kwaye kwenzeka, njengoko wayeyedwa ethandaza, Abafundi bakhe babekunye naye: wababuza, esithi, Bathi abantu ndingubani? (ULuka 9:18)
Kwathi, malunga neentsuku ezisibhozo, emveni kwala mazwi, Wathabatha uPetros noYohane noYakobi, wenyuka waya kuthandaza entabeni (Lu 9:28)
UYesu wabalela yonke into noYise, endaweni yabantu, kuba uYesu wayekwazi okungaphakathi indoda endala (UYohane 2:24). Yiyo loo nto uYesu engazange athembele ebantwini kwaye engazange abeke ithemba lakhe ebantwini kwaye azinikele kubo. Kodwa uYesu wathembela kuYise waza wabeka ithemba lakhe kuye, kwaye wayezinikele kuYe.
Ngenxa yobomi bakhe bomthandazo, UYesu wayenokuyinyamezela yonke intiyo nentshutshiso yabantu. Naxa bonke abafundi bakhe, abo uYesu wababiza ngokuba ngabahlobo, wamshiya uYesu, UYesu akazange oyike waza waqhubeka nomsebenzi Wakhe.
Ngexesha lobomi bakhe enyameni, UYesu wanikela imithandazo nezikhungo kunye nodanduluko olunamandla neenyembezi kulowo unako ukumsindisa ekufeni, wavakala esoyika; Nangona wayenguNyana, wafunda ukululama ngobunzima awabuvayo; Nokwenziwa wagqibelela, waba yimbangi yosindiso olungunaphakade kubo bonke abamlulamelayo (Hebhere 5:7-9)
Ngomthandazo, UYesu wayekwazi ukuwenza umsebenzi Wakhe waza wamphakamisa wamzukisa uYise.
Kungokunje umphefumlo wam ukhathazekile; ndithini na? Utata, ndisindise kweli lixa: ke kungenxa yoku le nto ndizele leli lixa. Utata, lizukise igama lakho. Kwabakho nezwi eliphuma ezulwini, esithi, Ndilizukisile zombini, kwaye ndiya kubuya ndilizukise (UYohane 12:27-28)
Ukungabikho komthandazo kubangela uwexuko
Xa uYesu waya kuthandaza eNtabeni yemiNquma, UYesu wabayalela abafundi bakhe, ababeseyindalo endala, ukuthandaza, ukuze bangangeni esilingweni, apho isikhubekiso sobubi sinokuvela, nto leyo eyayiza kukhokelela kwisenzo sesono.
Wathi akuba ekuloo ndawo, Wathi kubo, Thandazani, ukuze ningangeni ekuhendweni. (ULuka 22:40)
Lindani nithandaze, ukuze ningangeni ekuhendweni: umoya unentumekelelo, ke yona inyama ithambile (UMateyu 26:41, Phawula 14:38, ULuka 22:46)
Ngelishwa, zabo inyama yayingenakuthandaza Yiyo loo nto bebuthathaka kwaye balala.
UYesu wazingisa emthandazweni nangomthandazo, UYesu waloyisa uloyiko emphefumlweni wakhe kwaye wayenokuma azalisekise intando kaThixo nomsebenzi wakhe kulo mhlaba. Kodwa abafundi babengenakuthandaza, ndingazingise emthandazweni.
Kwaye ngenxa yenyani, ukuba bangabi nakuzingisa emthandazweni, baba lixhoba lomtyholi; umchasi lowo, ababa nako ukuma. Bamshiya uYesu baza bamkhanyela.
Phaphani ngoko, kwaye nithandaze rhoqo, ukuze kuthiwe nikufanele ukuzisaba zonke ezo zinto ziza kuhla, nokuma phambi koNyana woMntu. (ULuka 21:36)
Kwaye oko kuya kwenzeka ekupheleni kwemihla yokugqibela xa ingcinezelo yehlabathi iya kwanda, kwaye amaKristu amaninzi ayanikezela aze amshiye uYesu; iLizwi kunye Mkhanyele.
Ngokwenene, oku sele kwenzekile. Kuba xa amaKristu esiba abangathobeliyo kwiLizwi kwaye ushiye iLizwi, ngokuthatha imbono noluvo lwehlabathi nokuvumela nokunyamezela isono, AmaKristu sele enikezele kwingcinezelo yehlabathi aza amshiyile uYesu; ilizwi, wamkhanyela.
Ngoko ke, kubalulekile ukuba hlalani nilindile, kwaye nithandaze, ukuze ningahendwa, nilahlekiswe bubuxoki bukaSathana, kodwa ube nako ukucalula ubuxoki bomtyholi kwaye uhlale uthobela kwaye unyanisekile kwiLizwi, kwaye ube lingqina lakhe (Funda kwakhona: Iimfundiso zeedemon zilibulala kanjani ibandla?).
Amandla omthandazo
Wonke umKristu kufuneka athandaze aze azingise emthandazweni. Ixesha liya kufika kanye kuphela, kwaye yiyo loo nto kubalulekile ukuba ulichitha njani ixesha lakho. Musa ukugxila kwizinto zokwexeshana zeli hlabathi. Kodwa gxila kwizinto ezingunaphakade zoBukumkani bukaThixo uze umisele uBukumkani bukaThixo kulo mhlaba, kwaye ayityhile kwaye ayitshabalalise imisebenzi yobumnyama.
Ungu ehleli kuYesu Kristu Kungoko nanikwayo ukungena nesibindi sokuza phambi kwetrone kaBawo nithandaze kuBawo ngqo..
Ungakholelwa nabani na, othi akufuneki uthandaze kwaye umthandazo awunamsebenzi okanye awusebenzi. Makungabikho mntu unikholelwayo, ukuba awukwazi ukwenza nantoni na ngomthandazo. Kaloku obu bubuxoki bukaMtyholi.
UYesu uthi, ukuba kufuneka urhoxe, uthandaze emfihlekweni kuBawo. UYesu uyazi, kubaluleke kangakanani ukuthandaza nokuba awukwazi ukuhlala uphaphile kwaye ubukele, kwaye ayinako ukuma ngexesha lentiyo nentshutshiso yehlabathi ngaphandle komthandazo (Funda kwakhona: Ubomi obuyimfihlo bomthandazo wekholwa).
Kholwa, ukuba akukho lizwi, ophuma kuMoya, nasemlonyeni wakho, uya kubuya ulambatha, kodwa iya kwenza kwaye ifeze oko imele ikwenze. Ukunyamezela kubalulekile. Ngamanye amaxesha izinto azenzeki ngokukhawuleza, kodwa hlalani nimile nize nizingise emthandazweni ningayeki! ILizwi lithi, ukuze sithandaze singayeki (1 KwabaseTesalonika 5:17). Xa utyala imbewu emhlabeni, awuzuwufumana umthi oneziqhamo ngengomso. Ngoko ke yibani nomonde, kwaye uzingise.
Thandazela iinkokeli zebandla nezelizwe. Thandazela abazalwana noodade bakho kuYesu Kristu. Kwaye uthandaze, nokuba ukuthanda kukaThixo kuya kwenziwa kulo mhlaba nokuba uBukumkani bakhe buya kufika kulo mhlaba, njengokuba kuseZulwini.
‘Yibani yityuwa yehlabathi’
