Iviki 5: Abaphukile Futhi Babusisiwe

1. OKWEPHUKILE FUTHI UBUSISWE

 

“Uma nihlanjalazwa ngenxa yegama likaKristu, nibusisiwe, ngokuba uMoya wenkazimulo nokaNkulunkulu uhlezi phezu kwenu. Nakubo uyahlanjalazwa, kepha kini uyadunyiswa.” 1 Petru 4:14 (NKJV)

 

UMoya nenkazimulo kaNkulunkulu kuyohlala phezu kwalabo abahlupheka ngenxa yegama lakhe. Enye yezinjongo zokuhlupheka kwethu iwukujulisa ubuhlobo bethu noNkulunkulu, sibenze bube ngokoqobo futhi busondele nakakhulu esikhundleni sokubuka phezulu.

 

Lapho siba izitsha eziphukile, ukuphila kukaKristu kuyathatha, futhi ubungcwele Bakhe nothando bugeleza ngathi, futhi siba nobuhlobo obuseduze Naye. Uma lokho kwenzeka, asifuni ukuqashelwa, udumo, noma udumo kubantu—sifuna nje ukuba segumbini lethu elingaphakathi futhi sithandaze kuBaba wethu waseZulwini.

 

 

2. PHUMULA NOKUTHULA

 

• “'...Abayikungena ekuphumuleni kwaMi.' Ngakho-ke njengoba kusamelwe abanye bangene kulo, futhi labo okwashunyayelwa kubo kuqala abazange bangene ngenxa yokungalaleli.”— KumaHeberu 4:5-6 , NW.

 

• “Namuhla, uma nilizwa izwi lakhe, ningazenzi lukhuni izinhliziyo zenu…” KumaHeberu 3:15.

 

• Asikwazi ukungena ekuphumuleni kukaBaba uma sinobulukhuni, intukuthelo, ukwenqatshwa, noma ukuzidla. Uma singabhekani nobumina, sizohlala sikhathazekile, futhi ngeke sibe nokuthula.

 

KHULEKA: Baba oseZulwini, sifisa ukuba nobudlelwane obujulile, obusondelene kakhulu nawe. Sicela wenze izinhliziyo zethu zithambe futhi zithambe ukuze sizwe izwi Lakho futhi sizwe ukuthula Kwakho. Amen.

 

 

3. EPHUKILE

 

Ku-Eksodusi 12, uNkulunkulu wayala abantu baKhe ukuba babeke igazi ezinsikeni zomnyango ukuze babavikele ngobusuku abafa ngabo amaGibhithe. Wabahola wabayisa eZweni Lesithembiso. 

 

UNkulunkulu ufuna ukusikhipha enyameni asiyise emoyeni, asikhiphe ebumnyameni asiyise emandleni aKhe okuvuka, sisuke ekufeni asiyise ekuphileni. Kodwa lokho kungenzeka kuphela uma sihlanganyela ekwaphukeni nasekuhluphekeni Kwakhe—lapho siphuke njengaye.

 

“Umhlatshelo wami [umhlatshelo owamukelekayo] kuNkulunkulu ungumoya ophukile; inhliziyo eyaphukileyo nedabukileyo [edabukile ngenxa yesono futhi ngokuthobeka nangokuphenduka ngokuphelele], ongeke uyidelele, Nkulunkulu.” IHubo 51:17 (AMPC)
