Umthandazo wobuKristu ukujongana noloyiko
Uloyiko lunokukhubaza kwaye lukubambe, ngakumbi xa ujongene nentlekele, ukungaqiniseki, kunye neemeko ezingaphaya kwamandla akho. Xa usoyika, ingqondo yakho ibaleka ku "Ungathini xa?" Komnye. Ixhala lithatha indawo kwaye ukucinga kwakho kuya kuba ngcono kwesizathu, kukuqhubela ekubeni woyike. Kodwa le asiyondlela yokuphila komntwana kaThixo. Xa kuziwa kuloyiko, zintathu izinto ekufuneka amaKristu ezikhumbule.
Okokuqala, uYesu akalahli uloyiko lwakho. Omnye wemiyalelo yakhe ephindaphindwayo ibingu "Sukoyika". UYesu walubona uloyiko njengengxaki enkulu kubafundi bakhe kwaye uyazi ukuba lusakukhathaza nanamhlanje. Kodwa xa uYesu esithi "Musa ukoyika," uyaqonda ukuba awungekhe uyenze ngokuzama? Kukho enye into emsebenzini.
Le yinto yesibini ekufuneka uyikhumbule. UYesu uyazi ukuba nguThixo olawulayo. Uyazi ukuba uMdali weNdalo iphela unamandla ngaphezu kwayo yonke into oyoyikayo. Uyazi ukuba uThixo uyasinceda ngeendlela ezininzi ezahlukeneyo, kubandakanya ukukunceda uqhubeke ukuba kwenzeka into embi kakhulu. Nokuba uloyiko lwakho luzalisekisiwe, uThixo uyakwenzela indlela.
Okwesithathu, khumbula ukuba uThixo akakude. Ihlala kanye ngaphakathi kuwe, ngoMoya oyiNgcwele. Ufuna ukuba umthembe luloyiko lwakho, uphumle ngoxolo nangokukhusela. Kude kube ngoku ibonile ukusinda kwakho kwaye iya kuqhubeka nokuba nawe. Akunyanzelekanga ukuba ulwele ukuba uhlakulele ukholo; sisipho esivela kuThixo.Fihla emva kwengweletshetshe yeNkosi. Kukhuselekile apho.
Ukulungiselela ukuthandaza, funda ezi ndinyana zeBhayibhile kwaye uvumele izithembiso zikaThixo ukuba zikhuphe uloyiko lwakho kwaye iqinisekise nentliziyo yakho.
Khawucinge nje ngoDavide, xa wayejamelene nengxilimbela enguGoliyati, esilwa namaFilisti, esaba nokubulawa kukakumkani uSawule. UDavide wayesazi ukuba woyika. Nangona wayethanjiselwe ukuba ngukumkani wakwa-Israyeli, kwafuneka abaleke esindisa ubomi bakhe iminyaka ngaphambi kokuba itrone ibe yeyakhe. Yiva into eyabhalwa nguDavide malunga nelo xesha:
Nokuba ndihamba emfuleni wethunzi lokufa, andiyi koyika bubi, ngokuba unam wena; intonga yakho, umsimelelo wakho uyandithuthuzela. (INdumiso 23: 4, NLT)
Umpostile uPawulos kwafuneka oyise uloyiko kuhambo lwakhe oluyingozi lobuvangeli. Akazange ajongane nentshutshiso engapheliyo, kodwa kwafuneka anyamezele ukugula, amasela nokwephuka komkhumbi. Ulwa njani nomnqweno wokunikezela kuxinzelelo? Wayeqonda ukuba uThixo akasisindisi ukuze asishiye. Wagxila kwizipho uThixo azinika ikholwa elizelwe ngokutsha. Mamela into eyathethwa nguPaul kumthunywa wevangeli oselula, uTimoti:
"Kuba uThixo akasinikanga moya woloyiko neentloni, kodwa ngamandla, nothando kunye nokuziphatha". (2 Timoti 1: 7, NLT)
Okokugqibela, thatha la mazwi kaYesu entliziyweni. Thetha ngegunya kuba unguNyana kaThixo. Oko ikuthethayo kuyinyani, kwaye unokubeka ubomi bakho kuyo.
Uxolo endikushiya nalo; Ndikunika uxolo lwam. Andikuniki njengoko unika umhlaba. Intliziyo yenu mayingakhathazeki, musani ukoyika. (Yohane 14:27, NLT)
Yiba nesibindi kwezi ndinyana zeBhayibhile kwaye uthandaze umthandazo wokujongana noloyiko.
