Umthandazo uyingxenye enkulu yempilo yawo wonke umKristu ozelwe ngokusha, ohamba ngemuva komoya. Lokhu kungenxa yokuthi amaKristu azelwe ngokusha ayakwazi ukubaluleka komthandazo futhi awakwazi ukuphila ngaphandle komthandazo. Benza isikhathi futhi bahlukanise isikhathi sokuthandaza, ngoba umthandazo ubaluleke kakhulu ezimpilweni zamakholwa. Ikholwa elingenayo impilo yomkhuleko lifana nomfula owomile. Ake sibheke impilo yomkhuleko eyimfihlo yekholwa.
Impilo yomkhuleko ngenxa yomsebenzi noma uthando?
Lapho uthanda umuntu, ufuna ukuba nalowo muntu futhi uchithe isikhathi nalowo muntu. Amakholwa amaningi ayasho thanda iNkosi, kodwa kwenzeka kanjani ukuthi abaningi bangabi naso isikhathi futhi bangenzi isikhathi sokuchitha ndawonye neNkosi emthandazweni? Maningi amakholwa, ababheka umthandazo njengomsebenzi ongokwenkolo.
Izikhathi eziningi abanaso isifiso sokuchitha isikhathi noBaba futhi baziphoqelele ukuthi bathandaze. Bazothandaza imizuzu embalwa bese bayama baqhubeke nezindaba zabo zansuku zonke.
Bakhuleke uma bevuka, ngaphambi kokuba badle, futhi ngaphambi kokuba balale, futhi ucabange ukuthi ukuphila kwabo umthandazo.
Bacabanga ukuthi lolu hlobo lwempilo yomthandazo lwanele nokuthi baye bafeza isibopho sabo senkolo. Kodwa ukuphila komkhuleko ngaphandle komsebenzi into efiswa uBaba?
Ungazizwa kanjani, uma umngane efika ezokuvakasha ephuma emsebenzini, esikhundleni sokujabulela ukuchitha isikhathi nani ndawonye, ngoba umngane wakho uyakuthanda?
Ungazizwa kanjani uma abantu befuna ukuchitha isikhathi nawe kuphela futhi bechitha nawe, ukuze ngithole utho kini? Esikhundleni sokufuna ukuhlala nawe ngoba bekuthanda, ngoba ungubani?
angicabangi, ukuthi ungathanda lokho. Ngoba ubuyokwazi ukuthi lowo muntu akakuthandi ngempela, kodwa bachithe isikhathi nawe kuphela ngoba befuna okuthile kuwe noma ngaphandle kwesibopho ukuze bakhulule ingqondo yabo futhi bangasoli onembeza babo..
Kuyafana nangoNkulunkulu. UNkulunkulu uyazazi izinhliziyo zabantu. UNkulunkulu wazi kahle, ochitha isikhathi Naye futhi abe nempilo yokuthandaza ngaphandle komsebenzi noma ukuthola okuthile Kuye noma achithe isikhathi Naye futhi abe nempilo yokuthandaza ngenxa yothando..
UNkulunkulu uyayazi inhliziyo yakho
UNkulunkulu uyazi, onhliziyo yakhe izinikele Kuye futhi onhliziyo yakhe izinikele emhlabeni. Ungasho futhi ucule ukuthi uyamthanda. Futhi ungakwazi ngokuzithoba ukugcina imiyalo yeBhayibheli phambi kwabanye abantu. Kodwa inkulumo yakho, hamba, kanye nemisebenzi oyenzayo, ngisho nangemva kweminyango evaliwe, fakaza uma umthanda ngempela noma lokho okushoyo kungamazwi angenalutho nemisebenzi efile
Akukho okufihliwe kuNkulunkulu wethu uSomandla; Ubona konke! Ayikho inhliziyo efihliwe kuNkulunkulu. UNkulunkulu akalindi abantu abangcwele, onhliziyo yakhe ingaphumi kuYe noMbuso Wakhe, kodwa phumani niye ezweni nasembusweni wobumnyama.
Mhlawumbe umuntu angafihla inhliziyo yakhe yeqiniso kumakholwa enyama, abahamba ngokwenyama. Kodwa inhliziyo yakhe yeqiniso ngeke ifihlwe kuNkulunkulu nakulabo, Obani abazelwe ngaye. Ngoba uMoya oNgcwele uyahlukanisa real kusuka fake.
Impilo yomkhuleko yekholwa
Wonke amakholwa kufanele abe nempilo yomuntu siqu yokuthandaza futhi kufanele azibekele isikhathi sokuchitha ndawonye emthandazweni noBaba. Lapho umuntu ephenduka futhi ezalwa ngokusha kuKristu, kungase kube ukuthi umuntu kumelwe enze umzamo wokubeka inyama endaweni yomoya. Ngoba inyama ibilokhu ibusa empilweni yomuntu kanye inyama ayifuni ukukhuleka. Inyama ifuna ukondliwa nokujatshuliswa izinto zenyama zalo mhlaba. Ikona, ngakho-ke, okudingekayo ukuze uzikhuze futhi ubeke eceleni isikhathi sokuthandaza.
Manje, ungase ucabange: “hey, Linda umzuzu nje. Umthandazo akufanele uphoqwe, kodwa kumele kube ngaphandle kwenkululeko yokuzikhethela. Angiyithandi inkolo nokuba semthethweni, Ngifuna ukuba nobudlelwane noJesu kanye noBaba.” Impendulo yalokhu ithi: yebo futhi cha.
Kunjalo, kufanele ube nobudlelwane bomuntu siqu noJesu kanye noBaba, ngoMoya oNgcwele, esikhundleni sika-a ubudlelwano bomshini. Kodwa….. amakholwa amaningi awabukeli phansi amandla enyama, esekhona futhi elawula impilo yekholwa elisanda kuzalwa (Funda futhi: ‘Ukukholwa kobuchwepheshe‘).
Akufanele ukhohlwe ukuthi yonke leyo minyaka, phambi komuntu uyaphenduka, inyama isidliwe futhi kungazelelwe umuntu anqume ukungabe esayiphakela inyama. Ucabanga ukuthi inyama izovumelana nesinqumo somuntu? Cha, vele akunjalo! Inyama izokhala, khwifa ancenge kuze inyama ithole ekufunayo.
Inyama ilwa nomoya
Umoya ufuna ukuchitha isikhathi noBaba futhi ufuna ukugxila ezintweni zoMbuso waKhe, kodwa inyama ayifuni ukwenza lokho. Inyama iyahlubuka, ngoba inyama ayifuni ukufa, kodwa ufuna ukondliwa ngezinto zalomhlaba futhi aqhubeke ephila.
Inyama iyayazi, ukuthi uma nje inyama ingasaphakelwa, inyama ekugcineni iyokufa. Kungakho kubalulekile ukuthi uyeke ukulalela inyama yakho uyeke ukondla inyama yakho futhi uvumele umoya wakho ulawule futhi ubuse empilweni yakho esikhundleni salokho..
Maningi amakholwa, abachitha amahora phambi kwe umabonakude, ocingweni lwabo, ngemuva kwe (ukugembula)ikhompiyutha, noma bachithe isikhathi sabo kuzo zonke izinhlobo (social) imisebenzi kanye nokuzilibazisa, kodwa kabakwazi ukuchitha 5 kwa- 10 imizuzu ngosuku emthandazweni futhi usebenzise 5 kwa- 10 imizuzu eZwini.
Bavume ukuthi banjalo azalwe kabusha, kodwa bahlala benyama futhi abahambi ngokulandela umoya, kodwa ngokwenyama. Ngoba inyama yabo ilawula ukuphila kwabo.
Wonke umuntu ufuna ukufana noJesu futhi enze izibonakaliso ezifanayo, izimanga, nezimangaliso, Wenza kanjalo. Kodwa akubona bonke abantu abazimisele ukukhokha inani elifanayo futhi baphile impilo efanayo noJesu.
Uma uthando lwakho ngoJesu noYise lungelukhulu kunokuthanda izwe ‘nangokwakho siqu’ khona-ke ngeke nikwazi ukuma. Kodwa ekugcineni uzonqotshwa ukucindezela komhlaba. Ngoba izwe alilithandi iZwi futhi lihlubuka kuwo wonke amazwi, okulotshwe eBhayibhelini.
Uma iZwi noMoya oNgcwele kuphila ngaphakathi kuwe, niyakuzingelwa yibo, abangabezwe (indlela yokwenza) futhi liholwa yimimoya yalumhlaba.
Njengoba amasonto amaningi evumele imimoya yaleli zwe ukuba ingene futhi usathane umisile isihlalo sakhe sobukhosi emasontweni amaningi, ungabhekana nokushushiswa ngaphakathi ebandleni lakho.
Lapho uchitha isikhathi esiningi noBaba futhi uchitha isikhathi esiningi eZwini, yilapho uzomazi kangcono futhi uzomthanda nakakhulu. Uthando lwenu kaluyikuncipha kodwa lukhule. Futhi ngoba uthando lwakho luyokhula, uzofuna ukuchitha isikhathi esiningi kakhulu Naye.
Ukukhuleka ngezilimi kuyawakha umoya
Ngokunjalo noMoya uyasiza ubuthakathaka bethu: ngoba kasikwazi okumele sikuthandazele njengoba kufanele: kodwa uMoya uqobo usikhulumela ngokububula okungenakuphinyiswa. Futhi yena ohlola izinhliziyo uyakwazi okuqondwe nguMoya, ngoba ukhulumela abangcwele ngokwentando kaNkulunkulu (AmaRoma 8:26-27)
Ukukhuleka ngoMoya, okuwukukhuleka ngezilimi kuyadingeka. Ngoba uMoya uyasiza ebuthakathakeni benu futhi uyakha umoya wenu. Ukukhuleka ngezilimi akuhloselwe ukubonakaliswa kwenyama, njengama-goosebumps kanye nokuba nemizwa emnandi. Kodwa ukuthandaza ngezilimi kuyadingeka ukuze kwembule lezo zinto, ezifihliwe, ukuze nizikhulekele lezozinto.
Uma ungazi ukuthi ukhuleka kanjani futhi uqale ukukhuleka ngezilimi, khona-ke uMoya oNgcwele uzokunika amazwi okukhuluma, okungokwentando yakhe. Umoya wakho uzokwakhiwa kanye nokuqonda kwakho okungokomoya, ulwazi, nokuhlakanipha kuyakwanda. Uzothola izambulo ezivela eZwini futhi uthole ukuqonda.
UMoya oNgcwele uyakwazi ukujula kukaNkulunkulu
UMoya oNgcwele uyakwazi ukujula kukaNkulunkulu. Wazi okukuNkulunkulu nomuntu futhi wembula ingcebo efihliwe. Uveza ngisho nasempilweni yakho ukuthi yiziphi izici zempilo yakho ongakazinikeli ngokugcwele futhi ungazinikeli eNkosini okwamanje.
Kubalulekile ukuthi wonke amakholwa akwazi, ukuthi ngenkathi ukhona abhapathizwe ngoMoya oNgcwele, namukele uMoya oNgcwele ngokugcwele hhayi nje izingxenye Zakhe. Kodwa lokho okwenzekile endaweni yomoya, kufanele zibonakale endaweni yemvelo. Le nqubo ibizwa ngokuthi ukungcweliswa; alikhumule ikhehla futhi gqoka umuntu omusha. Lapho umoya womuntu omusha udliswa, kakhulu iyofa inyama yomuntu omdala.
Ukhuleka kanjani?
Kukhona abashumayeli nabafundisi, abafundisa izindlela zomkhuleko, imfundo, namasu. Bathi, ukuthi uma uthandaza ngendlela efanele futhi usebenzise izindlela zomkhuleko namasu alungile, nizakwamukeliswa enikucelayo. Kodwa iqiniso liwukuthi, ukuthi azikho izindlela zokuthandaza, imfundo, namasu okuphendulwa kwemithandazo. Abakufundisayo kubizwa ngokuthi ukukhohlisa.
Ngeshwa, Kunamakholwa amaningi, abaye bawa ngenxa yalawa manga futhi ngalezi zimfundiso zamanga baye bahlakulela impilo yokuthandaza, lapho imithandazo yabo ingasagxili ebuhlotsheni babo bomuntu siqu obungokomoya noNkulunkulu, kodwa owenyama ubudlelwano bomshini, lokho kumayelana nokukhohlisa nokwamukela izinto ezivela kuNkulunkulu, ikakhulukazi izibusiso zezinto ezibonakalayo kanye nokuchuma.
Yibo, abakhala kakhulu. Yibo, abathi akuphathelene nenkolo nomthetho, kodwa mayelana nobudlelwano. Okwamanje yibo, abakhuleka ngokwezindlela zokuthandaza eziyinkimbinkimbi nezindlela zomkhuleko, ezilotshwe encwadini yabo yomthandazo.
Bagxile kakhulu ekusebenziseni kwabo amagama futhi bakhathazeke kakhulu ngamasu abo omthandazo kanye nezindlela zomkhuleko, kunokuba uzinike isikhathi uguqe ulalele ukuthi uBaba uthini kubo ekusithekeni. Izikhathi eziningi uNkulunkulu akalitholi ithuba lokuphendula, ngoba umthandazo usuphelile ungakaqali.
Uthini uJesu ngempilo yomkhuleko?
Nalapho ukhuleka, ungabi njengabazenzisi: ngoba bethanda ukukhuleka bemi emasinagogeni lasemakhoneni emigwaqo, ukuze babonakale ebantwini. Ngiqinisile ngithi kini, Bawutholile umvuzo wabo (Mathewu 6:5)
UJesu washo izinto ezimbalwa ngomthandazo. Waqala ngokuyala abafundi Bakhe ukuthi bangalandeli izibonelo zabazenzisi; abadlali bezenkolo besigaba sokuphila. Babefuna ukubonwa nokuzwiwa ngabantu emasinagogeni nasemakhoneni emigwaqo. Kepha uJesu wathi, ukuthi sebewutholile umvuzo wabo.
Baningi abantu, abanesimilo esifanayo futhi abafuna ukuhlonishwa nokukhonzwa ngabantu. Laba bantu bafuna ukugqama futhi babonwe ngabanye. Phambi kwabanye, bakhuleka imikhuleko emide emihle yenyama. Basebenzisa amagama athinta inhliziyo ashukumisa imizwa nemizwelo yabantu. Baziveza njengochwepheshe endaweni yomthandazo futhi banyakazise imizwa nemizwa yabantu. Kepha empeleni, bayabakhohlisa.
“Thandaza kuBaba osekusithekeni”
Kodwa wena, nxa ukhuleka, ngena ekamelweni lakho, nalapho usuvale umnyango wakho, khuleka kuYihlo osekusithekeni; futhi uYihlo obona ekusithekeni uzokubuyisela obala (Mathewu 6:6)
UJesu wayala abafundi bakhe ukuthi bazokhuleka nini, bangene ekamelweni labo bavale umnyango, futhi nikhuleke kuBaba, osekusithekeni. Ngakho-ke, naphezu kweqiniso lokuthi nihlala nimunye emoyeni, ngoMoya oNgcwele kanye noJesu noYise, kubalulekile ukubekela eceleni isikhathi nokuchitha isikhathi emthandazweni noBaba.
UJesu wayala lokhu kubafundi bakhe, ababeseyindalo yakudala. Kodwa uJesu wayeyiNdalo entsha futhi uJesu wazihosha kaningi ukuze achithe isikhathi noBaba. Ngakho-ke uma uJesu wachitha isikhathi emthandazweni noBaba, kufanele silandele isibonelo Sakhe. NjengoJesu, kufanele sichithe isikhathi noBaba ekusithekeni.
Kodwa nxa nikhuleka, ungasebenzisi ukuphindaphinda okuyize, njengabahedeni: ngokuba bacabanga ukuthi bayakuzwiwa ngokukhuluma kwabo okuningi. Ngakho maningafani nabo: ngoba uYihlo uyakwazi enikuswelayo, ningakambuzi kuye (Mathewu 6:6-8)
Uma ukhuleka, ungasebenzisi ukuphindaphinda okuyize njengoba abezizwe bekhuleka kunkulunkulu wabo(s). Ngoba uNkulunkulu uyezwa futhi wazi konke. UNkulunkulu uyakwazi futhi wazi kahle ukuthi yini oyifunayo futhi oyidingayo, ngisho ungakamceli. UNkulunkulu uyawazi umcabango wakho nenhliziyo yakho.
Wathini uJesu ngomkhuleko?
Baba wethu osezulwini, Malingcweliswe igama lakho. Umbuso wakho mawuze. mayenziwe intando yakho emhlabeni, njengalokhu kusezulwini. Siphe namuhla isinkwa sethu semihla ngemihla. Usithethelele amacala ethu, njengoba nathi sibathethelela abanamacala kithi. Futhi ungasingenisi ekulingweni, kodwa usikhulule kokubi: Ngokuba umbuso ungowakho, kanye namandla, nenkazimulo, kuze kube phakade. Amen (Mathewu 6:9-13, Luka 11:2-4)
Lona umthandazo, uJesu awunika abafundi bakhe. Uma sibheka lomthandazo, sibona ukuzinikela okuphelele nokuzithoba kuNkulunkulu uBaba. Sibona ukuvuma ukuthi ungubani.
E
impela into izungeza kuNkulunkulu; Malingcweliswe igama laKhe, UMbuso waKhe mawufike, mayenziwe intando yakhe emhlabeni, njengalokhu kusezulwini.
Lokhu kusho ukuthi iBandla liyophila ngokuvumelana Intando yakhe futhi ulalele iZwi laKhe futhi wenze lokho Ayalile ukuba akwenze.
Amakholwa awasayikububula, khala futhi ukhononde. Kodwa bayozithoba kuNkulunkulu futhi bangabe besayenza intando yabo, kodwa yenza intando yaKhe. NjengoJesu, lapho Ekhuleka e insimu yaseGetsemane: “hhayi intando Yami, kodwa mayenziwe intando yakho.” Ngoba umbuso ungokaNkulunkulu namandla nenkazimulo kuze kube phakade.
Okufanele amakholwa akuthandazele, yisinkwa sabo semihla ngemihla, ukuthethelelwa kwezikweletu (izono), nokungabaholeli phakathi isilingo, kodwa ubakhulule ebubini.
UJesu waze waqhubeka ephathelene nokuthethelelwa kwezono (izikweletu). Wathi uma ikholwa limxolela omkweletayo, khona noBaba uyakumthethelela. Ukuthethelela umuntu okweletayo kusho, ukuthi uma umuntu ekwenza kabi futhi ekuphatha kabi, kumele umxolele. Ngoba uma ungaxoleli, khona-ke noBaba ngeke anithethelele (Funda futhi: ‘Imfihlo yokuthethelela’).
Ngisho uJesu athi, ukuthi libakhulekele labo, abakusebenzisa kabi (ukukuphatha kabi, ukuthuka wena, akuthobise, kulimaze wena, ukukumangalela ngamanga (Luka 6:28))
Kuthiwani ngezithiyo?
IZwi linikeza izizathu ezithile zokuthi kungani imithandazo ingaphendulwa. Kodwa uma uyikholwa elizelwe ngokusha, okhuleka ehamba emva kukaMoya futhi inkalo iZwi futhi liphila ngokwentando Yakhe, futhi unobudlelwane bomuntu siqu noJesu kanye noYise, khona-ke zonke lezi zithiyo zizosuswa, ngoba izithiyo ezithiya imikhuleko zisenyameni.
Osusa indlebe yakhe ekuzweni umthetho, umkhuleko wakhe uyisinengiso (Izaga 28:9)
Futhi zonke izinto, noma yini eniyakukucela emkhulekweni, ekholwayo, niyakwamukeliswa (ngaphandle kokukholwa, ngeke wamukele (Mathewu 21:22, Maka 11:24))
Ngokunjalo, nina madoda, hlala nabo ngokokwazi, enika unkosikazi udumo, njengesitsha esibuthakathaka kakhudlwana, futhi njengezindlalifa kanye lomusa wokuphila; ukuze imikhuleko yenu ithiye. (1 UPetru 3:7)
Niyalwa nilwe, nokho aninakho, ngoba kaliceli. Uyabuza, njalo lingamukeli, ngoba nicela kabi, ukuze nikuqede ezinkanukweni zenu (UJames 4:2-3)
Lapho umoya wakho ubusa, anisayikukhuleka imikhuleko yenyama, egcwele ukucela nokuncenga zonke izinhlobo zokuphakela nezidingo zenyama.
Kunalokho, uzosebenzisa izikhali zomoya eMbusweni kaNkulunkulu. Uzokhuleka ngendlela ecasulayo futhi ukhulume amazwi kaNkulunkulu ngegunya. Ngeke usagxila kuwena kodwa eMbusweni kaNkulunkulu.
Ningabe nisakhuleka njengalokhu indalo endala yenyama, obekwe ngaphansi kwegunya lezikhulu zomoya, ababusi, namandla ombuso wobumnyama. Kodwa khuleka njengesidalwa esisha, ubani ehlezi kuJesu Kristu, phezu kwazo zonke izikhulu, ababusi, namandla obumnyama, futhi ukhuleka ngokwentando kaNkulunkulu.
Yingakho kubalulekile ukwazi Intando kaNkulunkulul nokwazi ukuthi uthini ngezindaba ezithile, ukuze uthandaze ngokwentando kaNkulunkulu hhayi ngokwentando yakho nentando yezwe futhi uthandaze imithandazo yenyama yomuntu, eziphuma emizweni yakho kanye nemizwa yakho.
Kuthiwani uma imithandazo ingaphendulwa?
Wenzani, nxa kukhulekwa, ezilandela intando kaNkulunkulu, aziphendulwa? Uma imithandazo ingaphendulwa ngokushesha, ungabi novalo. Ngoba ke konke kumayelana, uma ukholwa ngempela eZwini futhi wethemba uNkulunkulu. Uyalethemba yini iZwi laKhe? Uyakholwa ukuthi iZwi laKhe liyiqiniso? Uma umethemba futhi ukholwa ukuthi iZwi laKhe liyiqiniso, uyakuma eZwini uphikelele.
Ngokushesha nje lapho ukungabaza kuzama ukungena engqondweni yakho, iyale ukuthi ihambe. Ngoba uma ungayiyali ukuthi ihambe, kodwa lalela ukungabaza futhi uzondle kukho futhi ukuthobele, ngokuchezuka emazwini kaNkulunkulu, ukhombisa ukuthi awulikholwa ngempela iZwi. Ngoba uma wenza, ubungeke uwangabaze amazwi kaNkulunkulu futhi uchezuke emazwini Akhe. Lapho ukhetha ukukholelwa ukungabaza ngaphezu kwamazwi kaNkulunkulu futhi wenze ngokuvumelana nakho, uzosuka ekukholweni.
Kodwa uma uqhubeka nokuma eZwini futhi uphikelele, ubonisa ukuthi uyakholwa kuNkulunkulu nokuthi uyamethemba. Isikhathi esiningi osichitha Naye, yilapho uzomazi kakhulu. Lapho uzomazi ngokwengeziwe, Lapho uzomethemba kakhulu. Ngoba ungamethemba kanjani umuntu, uma ungamazi umuntu uqobo kanye nolwazi, kodwa umazi kuphela umuntu ngegama noma ngabanye?
Ngakho themba uNkulunkulu, chitha isikhathi noNkulunkulu futhi Uyokwembula Okwakhe icebo nentando kuwe. Lapho uchitha isikhathi esiningi futhi ulalela ngokwengeziwe iZwi Lakhe futhi uphile ngokwentando Yakhe futhi umethembe, kakhulu uyokwethemba futhi akuphathise izinto zoMbuso. Kodwa ngaphambi kokuba Akwenze lokho, kufanele wethembeke futhi usebenzelane nezinto zoMbuso ngobuqotho.
