Abantu abangaphelele: Inhliziyo kaNkulunkulu yokungapheleli
IBhayibheli alifihli amaphutha abantu ngaphakathi kwamakhasi alo. Esikhundleni salokho, igcizelela amandla abo nobuthakathaka babo bobuthakathaka bobabili, isibonisa ukujula kothando lukaNkulunkulu - ukuthi uthando lwakhe alusekelwe ekulweni kwezenzo zethu kuphela. "Ngoba bonke bonile futhi bayasilela enkazimulweni kaNkulunkulu" (KwabaseRoma 3:23). Inselelo ukuthi abantu bahlulela, kepha uNkulunkulu uyavuma; Akalahli - uhlenga. "Ngakho-ke akukho manje ukulahlwa kwalabo abakuKristu Jesu" (KwabaseRoma 8: 1).
Indaba kaTamari ibonisa umuntu wesifazane owalala nomukhwe wakhe, nokho wabhekwa njengomilo elungile (uGenesise 38). UDavid wathatha umfazi wamunye wahlela futhi wahlela ukushona komyeni wakhe, nokho wabizwa ngokuthi yindoda ngemuva kwenhliziyo kaNkulunkulu (2 Samuweli 11, Izenzo 13:22). USara wathumela uHagari nengane yakhe ehlane (uGenesise 21:10), uSolomoni wayalwa uYise ukuba aqede abantu abathile ngaphambi kokuba abe yinkosi (1 AmaKhosi 2: 5-9). Angazi ukuthi ufunda iliphi iBhayibheli, kodwa iBhayibheli engilifundayo lingikhombisa abantu abangaphelele abakhethwe uNkulunkulu ophelele. Masingalahli amanye amaphutha abo kodwa silwele ukubabona njengoba uNkulunkulu ebabona. UNkulunkulu akayona abantu abaphelele; Ungenzelwe bonke. "INKOSI iseduze kwabaphukileyo banenhliziyo eyaphukileyo futhi isindisa umoya ochotshoziwe" (IHu. 34:18).
Lapho ngifunda ibhayibheli, ngashaywa ngokuthi kungafihli kanjani isimilo sabantu ngaphakathi kwaso. Akukazi ukuthi uzithethelise kodwa zibazenzele njengoba zinjalo. Isibonelo, cabanga ngobabili uDavide neNkosi uSawule. INkosi uSawule ayithathanga umfazi womunye umuntu noma iphinga, nokho uDavide, naphezu kwezono zakhe, wabizwa ngokuthi yindoda ngemuva kwenhliziyo kaNkulunkulu. Iphutha likaSawule elirekhodiwe lalingalaleli - wahlaba phambi kwesikhathi esimisiwe, kanti uNkulunkulu wayefisa ukulalela kwakhe (1 Samuweli 15: 22-23). Iphutha likaSawule likhulisiwe, kodwa ekugcineni, kodwa, kwakuyisimo senhliziyo yakhe ebaluleke. Lapho uDavide ona, waphenduka, futhi isimo senhliziyo yakhe sanquma ukuthi uNkulunkulu usebenzelana kanjani naye. "Dala Inhliziyo Ehlanzekile, O Nkulunkulu, uvuselele umoya ofanele ngaphakathi kimi" (IHu. 51:10). Inselelo esontweni namuhla ukuthi abaningi bamahluleli abanye hhayi ngendlela uNkulunkulu ababheka ngayo kodwa ngombono wabo.
Ngikhumbula udaba kusukela ngasekupheleni kukaKenneth Hagin, owabhala ngesigameko esontweni lakhe. Owesilisa weza ukuzoshumayela, futhi ibandla lalicasukile, lingababuza ukuthi kungani isoni savunyelwa ukuba sikhulume. Ngemuva kwenkonzo, owesifazane wasondela kuHagin, eveza ukungamukeleki kwakhe. Waphendula ukuthi ngaphambi kokuba le ndoda yeza esontweni, wayesenze inhliziyo yakhe ilungile neNkosi. Ngaleso sikhathi, ummangaleli - owesifazana owazithatha njengezinto ezilungile - wayephila ngomunyu iminyaka eyi-15. Le ndaba ikhombisa indlela uNkulunkulu abheka ngayo ngaphezu kwezenzo enhliziyweni. "Umuntu ubheka ukubukeka kwangaphandle, kepha iNkosi ibheka inhliziyo" (1 Samuweli 16: 7).
Bobabili uSawule noDavide bona. Isono sikaSawule singabonakala sinzima kakhulu ngoba akazange angalaleli esifisweni sokunqoba kuka-Israyeli, lapho uDavide anqotshwa yinkanuko yenyama yakhe. Kodwa-ke, ukuphenduka kukaDavide kwamsekela. UNkulunkulu akabathandi abantu abaphelele - uyabathanda labo abazimisele ukumethemba ukuze abekezelele. "Umusa wami wanele kuwe, ngoba amandla ami enziwa aphelele ebuthakathakeni" (2 Kor. 12: 9). Insindiso ingumusa. Imbewu ekhiqizwa ngoTamari ibalwa ohlwini lozalo lukaJesu, ikhombisa ukuthi uthando lukaNkulunkulu alusekelwe ezenzweni yabantu kodwa kulokho okwenziwe nguKristu. "Ngoba ngomusa nisindisiwe ngokukholwa, futhi lokhu akuyona eyakho ukwenza; kuyisipho sikaNkulunkulu" (Kwabase-Efesu 2: 8-9).
Abaningi namuhla bangena ekwahluleleni, njengabaFarisi, bakholelwa ukuthi balungile kunabanye. Kepha ukulunga akukhona ngezenzo zethu; Kumayelana nomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu kithi. "Ngoba ukwahlulela uyakusho ukuthi uzokwahlulelwa, futhi ngesilinganiso osisebenzisayo uzokulinganiswa kuwe" (Math. 7: 2). Abaningi bathukuthele ngoba bahlulela abanye esikhundleni sokushumayeza izwi likaNkulunkulu kubo ngothando.
Sengiphetha, izwi lesiprofetho elinikezwe uSamuel lalimaphutha empini ka-Eli, kodwa nokho uSamuel walwa nenkinga efanayo maqondana nezingane zakhe (1 Samuweli 8: 1-3). Kwesinye isikhathi, sahlulela abanye ezindaweni thina uqobo esibuthakathaka. "Kungani ubona ucezwana olusesweni lomfowenu, kepha ungaboni ilogi elisesisweni sakho?" (Math. 7: 3). Esikhundleni sokwahlulela nokulahla, masithandaze. Lokhu makube yisizini lapho sandlala khona uthando lukaNkulunkulu futhi sime ngeqiniso lakhe. Inkosi ikubusise.
