Ubizelwe ukuba nezithelo
Kunomugqa odumile ovela eBhayibhelini: "Aningikhohlile, kepha angikukhethile, ngikumisele, ukuze nihambe nilethe." UNkulunkulu wasibiza ngokuvela emhlabeni futhi wasimisa ukuba sithele. Leli gama elimisiwe liyafana namagama afanayo, elisho ukuthi uNkulunkulu wasibekela obala ukuthi sinezithelo, ngaphambi kokuthi sikubize, wayesenecebo elithile kuwe.
Lapho umuntu ethela, akhiqiza, okusho ukuthi bakhiqiza kuyo yonke imizamo abayenzayo noma isenzo abasithathayo. Ukukhiqiza kulinganiswa yilokho okwenzayo uma kuqhathaniswa nalokho okufaka kuyo. Awukwazi ukwedlula ngaphandle kwemizamo nokufaka okuthile. UNkulunkulu ukubizele ukuthi ukhiqize, kepha yini okokufaka kwakho?
Ukuthengwa kwezithelo kungumphumela wemizamo esebenzayo. Ungalindeli izithelo endaweni ongakaze uyitshale yona. Izithelo zivela kulokho okufake. Ngezikhathi ezithile, njengamakholwa sivilapha kakhulu ukuthi sisebenza futhi sicabange ngoba uNkulunkulu ukusho, kuzobonakala. Kepha yimuphi umzamo owenzayo ekugcwalisekeni kwalelo lizwi uNkulunkulu wakhuluma ngempilo yakho?
Lapho uNkulunkulu ekugcola ukuba ukhiqize, wakubeka kuwe imibono namandla adingekayo ukuze kufezeke leyo misebenzi. Imfihlo kufanele isebenze. U-Abhrahama watshelwa: "Phumani phakathi kwabantu bakho uye ezweni engikulungiselele lona." Kepha ngokumangazayo, uNkulunkulu akazange abuye nemephu. U-Abhrahama wavele waya eKhekwini nakulapho ehamba, kwabonakala sengathi uhamba ubheke eZweni LikaNkulunkulu Lesithembiso.
Kwesinye isikhathi konke okudingayo ukuqala nokwenza okuthile, ukube u-Abhrahama wayelinde, wayengeke azuze ifa lesithembiso sikaNkulunkulu ngempilo yakhe. Lapho uNkulunkulu ethembisa ngokungafanele kuzo zonke izici zempilo yakho ngombhalo noma ngesiprofetho, kuyadingeka ukuthi usebenzele kulo. Musa ukulinda futhi ucabange ukuthi ngabe uNkulunkulu ukukwethembisa, kuzokwenzeka ngokuzenzakalelayo. Yenza okuthile.Abraham kungenzeka ukuthi kwasala phakathi kwezihlobo zakhe ngoba uNkulunkulu akazange amnikeze umgwaqo othize womgwaqo kodwa ngokukholwa, waya esithembisweni sikaNkulunkulu ngempilo yakhe.
UNkulunkulu wakhetha futhi wakumisa ukuba uthele izithelo, kepha kungumthwalo wakho wemfanelo ngokholo ukwenza futhi kubonise lelo zwi empilweni yakho.
KuJohane 15, uNkulunkulu uqhathaniswa nomlimi wegadi futhi ngezinye izikhathi afaka noma yini esivimba ukukhiqiza. Lapho etshela u-Abrahama ukuba ashiye izihlobo zakhe, wayezinaka empilweni yakhe ukuze u-Abrahama akwazi ukukhiqiza. Kwakungelula ngoba wayalwa ukuba ahambe emndenini wakhe nezinto ayezijwayele.
Labo abakhanyisani olunezithelo futhi basebenza ezithelo abazithwala manje ezimpilweni zabo. Umbuzo uwukuthi: Yini ozimisele ukuyenza ukuze uzuze ifa lezwi likaNkulunkulu impilo yakho ngisho nokubizwa kwakhe kuthela izithelo? ImiBhalo ikhuluma ngendoda evilayo elala futhi ubumpofu bamkhalela njengeqembu labaphangi. Ungavumeli umzuzu owodwa ukuthi udlule noma usuku lokudlula ngaphandle kokufaka okuthile kuwe ukufeza iZwi likaNkulunkulu ngempilo yakho.
Sibizelwe ekutheleni, kepha kubonakala sengathi labo abazimisele ukusebenzela yibo abafanelekayo ukuze bazuze ifa leloZwi futhi bafeze iphupho likaNkulunkulu lokukhulisa nokuchuma.
