KwiNdumiso 23, INkosi ngumalusi wam, UDavide waluchaza ulwalamano lwakhe noThixo. Amazwi eNdumiso 23 ifanele ichaze nobudlelwane phakathi komKristu noThixo. Nangona amaKristu amaninzi eyazi iNdumiso 23 intliziyo yam, kumaKristu amaninzi amazwi ale Ndumiso ahlala ebhaliweyo kuphela. Amazwi abo, isebenza, kwaye ukuziphatha akuhambelani namazwi eNdumiso 23. Unini na uYehova uMalusi wakho? UYehova unguMalusi wam uthetha ukuthini kubomi bakho bemihla ngemihla?
INkosi ngumalusi wam; Andiyi kufuna
(INdumiso 23:1)
UThixo unguMalusi omkhulu kwaye wathumela uYesu Kristu ukuba aluse umhlambi wakhe. UYesu nguMalusi olungileyo, owancama ubomi bakhe ngenxa yeegusha. Ngokufa nokuvuka Kwakhe, UYesu wanika wonke umntu ithuba lokuba yinxalenye yomhlambi wakhe aze amlandele, kwaye usindiswe.
Xa ukholwa kuYesu Kristu, uNyana kaThixo, kwaye wamkele uYesu Kristu njengoMsindisi neNkosi yakho, kwaye ube a indalo entsha; unyana kaThixo (oku kusebenza kuzo zombini iinkunzi nemazi), kuye, uYehova nguMalusi wakho ke. Ukuba uYehova nguMalusi wakho, aniyi kuswela nto.
Xa umbombozela, khala, kwaye ukhalaze ngalo lonke ixesha malunga neemeko zakho, indlela abantu (mis)ndikuphathe, ukuswela kwakho ebomini, kwaye rhoqo uthandazela zonke iintlobo (isixhobo) izinto ezo, ngokutsho kwakho, ziyasilela, ke amazwi akho nokuziphatha kwakho kungqina ukuba uYehova akangoMalusi wakho. (Funda kwakhona: Ukubulela koonyana bakaThixo).
Kuba kwindinyana yokuqala yeNdumiso 23, kubhaliwe kwathiwa, ukuba iNkosi inguMalusi wakho, akusweleki nto.
UThixo ukubonelele wakunika yonke into. Ithetha ukuba, ukuba wanelisekile yinto yonke, UThixo akusikelele.
Xa sijonga amazwi nokuziphatha kwabantwana bakwaSirayeli, xa babesendleleni eya kwilizwe ledinga, sifunda ukuba babembombozela yaye bekhalaza ngalo lonke ixesha (oko kukuthi, iEksodus 16:7-8, Amanani 14:27,36, 16:11, 17:5, 1 KwabaseKorinte 10:10).
Akukhathaliseki nokuba wenza ntoni na uThixo nokuba usinike njani, ayizange ilunge ngokwaneleyo kubo.
Ngoba? Ngenxa yokuba babenolunye uhlobo ulindelo lukaThixo Ilungiselelo likaThixo. Yaye ayesoloko ekhangela emva kubomi bawo bamandulo baseYiputa.
Babengakwazi nje ukubushiya ubomi babo obudala. Abazange babukhumbule ubunzima babo xa babephila ebukhobokeni bukaFaro nendlela ababekhala ngayo kuThixo becela uncedo.. Hayi, ngenxa yokuba enye yeempawu ezininzi ze indoda endala yenyama kukuba bacingela ixesha elidlulileyo kwaye balibale zonke izinto ezimbi zexesha elidlulileyo.

Indlela uThixo ababonelele ngayo nendlela awabakhokelela ngayo kwilizwe ledinga, khange bahambelane nolindelo lwabo kunye nendlela abafuna ukukhokelwa kwaye babonelelwe ngayo. Abazange bajonge kwilungiselelo labo. Kunoko, bajonga izinto ababeziswele, ngokwabo.
UYehova wayenguMalusi wabo. Wahamba phambi kwabo, wabakhokela, wabalungiselela. Kodwa abazange bamamkele uThixo njengoMalusi wabo. Babengenambulelo ngamalungiselelo Akhe. Kodwa babesoloko bejonga izinto, babengenayo.
Ngelishwa, amaKristu amaninzi, abo bahlala ngokwenyama, behamba ngokwenyama, yiba nokuziphatha okufanayo. Bahlala bejonga izinto, abathi ngokutsho kwabo, ziyasilela. Ngoko ke, abaneliseki zizinto abanazo.
Kunokuba babe nombulelo ngezinto abanazo, bayakhalaza bembombozela ngezinto abanazo abanye abantu, kodwa abakwenzi. Ukuba uhlala njalo, ngoko awunakuze ube nombulelo. Uya kuhlala umbombozela kwaye ukhalaze ebantwini nakuThixo. (Funda kwakhona: Yekani ukugxeka uThixo!).
Kodwa ukuba uYehova ungumalusi wakho, akuyi kuswela nto.
