Awudingi amagama akhethekile.

Ukuthandaza

Umthandazo awuyinto engaphezu kokukhuluma noJesu sengathi ungumngane wakho omkhulu. Awudingi ukuzwakala unenkolo. Awudingi ukwazi amagama alungile. Ungakhuluma naye nje.

Khuluma Naye Nje

UJesu usevele ekwazi. Uyazi ukuthi kwenzekeni ekuphileni kwakho, izinqumo osuzenzile, izinto ozigqaja ngazo, nalezo ofisa sengathi ubungazishintsha. Awudingi ukumfihlela lutho.

Wenze isinqumo esibi? Ubeke ikhokhakhola enkomishini kanti ukhokhele amanzi kuphela? Unomhawu ngoba omunye uthole ukunyuselwa, wathola ubudlelwano, wathenga indlu, noma unalokho ofisa sengathi ubunakho? Tshela uJesu ngakho.

Khuluma naye ngalokho okwenzekile. Mtshele lokho obukucabanga. Mtshele uma uthukuthele, wesaba, udidekile, ungedwa, unamahloni, uyabonga noma uthokozile. Mcele akusize wenze isinqumo sakho esilandelayo.

Umthandazo ungaba mude, kodwa eminye yemithandazo enamandla kakhulu ilula kakhulu:

“Jesu, ngiyakudinga.”

“Jesu, ngisize.”

“Jesu, ngisize ngenze lesi sinqumo.”

“Jesu, bengiphosisile. Ngicela ungithethelele.”

“Jesu, angikwazi ukukwenza lokhu ngedwa.”

“Jesu, ngiyabonga ngokuba nami.”

“Niphosele kuye konke ukukhathazeka kwenu, ngokuba yena uyanikhathalela.” — 1 uPetru 5:7 (IBhayibheli)

Sithandazela Ubani?

Lokhu kungadida uma uyisiqalo ebuKristwini. Ungase uzwe amaKristu ekhuluma ngoNkulunkulu uYise, uJesu uNdodana, noMoya oPhilileyo. Laba bonkulunkulu abathathu abahlukene yini? Cha. AmaKristu akholelwa kuNkulunkulu oyedwa.

UZiqu-zintathu, ngolimi olulula kakhulu

IBhayibheli likhombisa uNkulunkulu oyedwa owaziwa ngokuthi nguYise, uNdodana, noMoya oPhilileyo. UYise unguNkulunkulu. UJesu, uNdodana, unguNkulunkulu. UMoya oPhilileyo unguNkulunkulu. Kodwa abekho onkulunkulu abathathu—kukhona uNkulunkulu oyedwa. Bangabantu abahlukene, bobumbene ngokuphelele njengoNkulunkulu oyedwa weqiniso.

Awudingi ukuqonda konke ngoZiqu-zintathu ngaphambi kokuthandaza. AmaKristu asebenzise amakhulu eminyaka ezama ukuchaza iqiniso elikhulu kunalokho izingqondo zethu ezingakuqonda ngokuphelele.

“Umusa weNkosi uJesu Kristu nothando lukaNkulunkulu nobudlelwano bukaMoya oNgcwele makube nani nonke. Amen.” — 2 KwabaseKorinte 13:14 (IBhayibheli)

Pho ngikhuluma nobani?

UJesu wafundisa abalandeli bakhe ukuba bathandaze kuBaba wethu osezulwini. AmaKristu eza kuYise ngoJesu, futhi uMoya oPhilileyo uyasisiza sithandaze. Kuyinto yemvelo ngokuphelele ukukhuluma ngqo noJesu, njengoba abantu benza kulo lonke iSivumelwano Esisha.

Uma konke ongakusho, “Jesu, ngisize,” kusho. Ungavumeli ukungaqiniseki ngamagama kukuvimbele ukukhuluma noNkulunkulu.

“Baba wethu osezulwini, malingcweliswe igama lakho.” — uMathewu 6:9 (IBhayibheli)

“Ngokunjalo noMoya uyasisiza ebuthakathakeni bethu, ngokuba asazi esikufunayo ekuthandazeni ngendlela efanele...” — KwabaseRoma 8:26 (IBhayibheli)

Kungani AmaKristu Ethandaza “Egameni LikaJesu”?

Ukuphetha umthandazo nge-“egameni likaJesu” akuyona inkulumo yomlingo. Kusikhumbuza ukuthi sisondela kuNkulunkulu ngenxa kaJesu—hhayi ngoba sikufanele ukumsondela noma ngoba siphile ngokuphelele.

UJesu uyindlela yethu eya kuYise. Ukuthandaza egameni lakhe kusho ukuthi simethemba futhi sifuna lokho okuvumelana nokuthi unguyiphi nalokho akufunayo.

“Mina ngiyindlela neqiniso nokuphila; akakho ongeza kuYise ngaphandle kwami.” — uJohane 14:6 (IBhayibheli)

“Futhi noma yini eniyakuyicela egameni lami, ngiyakuyenza, ukuze uYise adunyiswe eNdodaneni.” — uJohane 14:13 (IBhayibheli)

Umthandazo Olula Kakhulu Wokusindiswa

Alikho igama lomlingo elikusindisayo. UJesu uyakusindisa. Umthandazo yindlela ongamtshela ngayo ngokweqiniso lokho okukholwayo futhi umcele intethelelo. Uma usulungele ukumethemba uJesu, umthandazo wakho ungaba lula kakhulu:

Jesu, ngenze izinqumo ezimbi nokukhetha okungalungile, futhi usevele uyazazi. Ngicela ungithethelele.

Ngiyakholwa ukuthi wafela mina esiphambanweni, futhi ngiyakholwa ukuthi uNkulunkulu wakuvusa kwabafileyo.

Ngivuma izono zami kuwe. Ngibeka ukukholwa nokwethemba kwami kuwe.

Ngifuna ube nami ikusasa lonke lokuphila kwami, futhi ngifuna ngibe nawe eZulwini lapho ngifa.

Ngicela ungisize ngikwazi, ngikulandele, futhi ngiphile ukuphila ofuna ngikuphile.

Egameni likaJesu, Amen.

Umthandazo uqobo awuyona indlela ethile noma ukuthengiselana. IBhayibheli lisikhomba ekukholweni kweqiniso kuJesu Kristu—ukukholwa nguye, ukuphendukela kuye, nokumbiza.

“Ukuthi uma uvuma ngomlomo wakho ukuthi uJesu unguNkosi, ukholwe enhliziyweni yakho ukuthi uNkulunkulu wamvusa kwabafileyo, uyakusindiswa.” — KwabaseRoma 10:9 (IBhayibheli)

“Ngokuba bonke abayakubiza igama leNkosi bayakusindiswa.” — KwabaseRoma 10:13 (IBhayibheli)

“Uma sivuma izono zethu, uthembekile, ulungile, ukuba asithethelele izono zethu, asihlanze kukho konke ukungalungi.” — 1 uJohane 1:9 (IBhayibheli)
