Konke lokhu sikubheka njengesiphiwo, njengento okufanele ilindelwe.
Siyabenyanya bonke labo abamelene neNkosi uJesu; ekugcineni, bonke bayoqothulwa. Ubani obatshele ukuthi bangakholelwa ukuthi iNkosi uJesu ingumSindisi? Yiqiniso, kunezikhathi lapho sifunda khona eNkosini uJesu ukuthi banobubele ngezwe, ngoba abaqondi, futhi kufanele sibabekezelele futhi sibaxolele. Konke esikwenzayo kuvumelana namazwi eBhayibheli, ngoba yonke into engavumelani neBhayibheli iyinzwabethi, nenkolelo embi. Leyo nkolelo, imbelwe yajula ezingqondweni zethu. INkosi yethu iseBhayibhelini, futhi uma singasuki eBhayibhelini, akufanele sisuke naseNkosini; uma silalela le miyalo, kufanele sisindiswe.

Ububi bethu benekwe emehlweni kaNkulunkulu, futhi uNkulunkulu uyazichitha izifiso nobugovu bethu. Kodwa konke lokhu kuyaphawuleka, kunengqondo futhi akekho kithi ozibuza ngokulunga kwezinto esizilangazelelayo, ingasaphathwa eyokuthi singabaze ukunemba kwezinto esibambelele kuzo. Ubani ongayazi intando kaNkulunkulu? Asikwazi ukufuna, noma ukuhlaziya, noma ngisho ukukhathazeka ngathi endleleni umuntu ahamba ngayo. Ngoba okuwukuphela kwento esikhathazeka ngayo injabulo, izibusiso, nokuthi ikhona yini indawo yethu embusweni wezulu, nokuthi sizoba nayo yini indima emanzini omfula wokuphila nasesithelweni sesihlahla sokuphila.

Ngaphezu kwalokho, asiphezi ukuthandaza, sicele iNkosi ukuba isivikele ekukhohlisweni oKristu bamanga, ngoba kulotshiwe eBhayibhelini ukuthi “Khona uma umuntu ethi kini, Bhekani, nangu uKristu, noma nanguya; ningakholwa. Ngokuba kuyakuvela oKristu bamanga nabaprofethi bamanga, futhi baveze izibonakaliso ezinkulu nezimangaliso; ukuze, uma kungenzeka, badukiswe nabakhethiweyo” (Mathewu 24:23-24). Sonke siwagcine engqondweni la mavesi eBhayibheli, siwazi njengoba sizazi, futhi siwabheka njengengcebo eyigugu, njengokuphila, nanjengesigxivizo senjabulo nokusindiswa kwethu…
Ezinkulungwaneni zeminyaka, abaphilayo baye bashona, bahamba namaphupho kanye nezinto ababezilangazelela, futhi akekho owaziyo ukuthi bawuthola yini umbuso wezulu. Abafile babuya, sebekhohlwe yizo zonke izindaba ezake zenzeka, futhi besalandela izimfundiso nezindlela zoyisemkhulu. Ngakho, njengoba iminyaka nezinsuku kudlula, akekho owazi ukuthi iNkosi yethu uJesu, uNkulunkulu wethu, bayakwamukela yini konke esikwenzayo. Simane silangazelela umphumela futhi siqagela konke okuzokwenzeka. Kodwa uNkulunkulu uye wathula, futhi akazange avele kithi, noma akhulume nathi. Ngakho siyahlulela ngothando intando nesimo sikaNkulunkulu ngokuvumelana neBhayibheli kanye nezimpawu. Siye sajwayelana nokuthula kukaNkulunkulu; sajwayelana nokubona okulungile nokungalungile ekuziphatheni kwethu sisebenzisa indlela esicabanga ngayo; siye sajwayelana nokusebenzisa ulwazi lwethu, imibono, nemithetho yethu yokuziphatha ukuze kungene esikhundleni sezinto ezifunwa uNkulunkulu; siye sajwayelana nokuthokozela umusa kaNkulunkulu; siye sajwayelana nokusiza noma nini lapho kudingeka; siye sajwayelana nokufaka isandla kuzo zonke izinto, nokuyalwa uNkulunkulu; futhi siye sajwayelana nokulandela imfundiso, nokunganaki ukuthi uMoya oNgcwele usiholela kuphi; ngaphezu kwalokho, siye sajwayelana nezinsuku esizibusa ngazo.

Imibuzo enjengokuthi sinjani isimo Sakhe, yini anayo, unjani umfanekiso Wakhe, nokuthi siyomazi yini lapho eza, njalo njalo—akukho okubalulekile kulokhu. Okubalulekile ukuthi usezinhliziyweni zethu, nokuthi sonke silindele Yena, nokuthi siyakwazi ukubona ngeso lengqondo ukuthi unjani. Siyalwazisa ukholo lwethu, nokumkhonza kwethu. Konke sikubheka njengokuyize, futhi asinandaba nakho konke. Ngoba singabalandeli beNkosi ekhazimulayo, akunandaba ukuthi uhambo lude kangakanani, akunandaba ukuthi sehlelwa yibuphi ubunzima nezinhlekelele, ayikho into engaphazamisa imikhondo yethu njengoba silandela iNkosi. “Umfula ocwebile wamanzi okuphila ocwebezela njengekristalu, uvela esihlalweni sobukhosi sikaNkulunkulu neseWundlu. Phakathi kwesitaladi sawo nomfula, emacaleni womabili kukhona umuthi wokuphila, uthela izithelo eziyishumi nambili, futhi uthela izithelo zawo inyanga nenyanga: namaqabunga omuthi angawokuphulukisa izizwe. Futhi akuyikuba khona nokukodwa ukuqalekisa: kodwa isihlalo sobukhosi sikaNkulunkulu neseWundlu siyakuba kuwo; nezinceku zakhe ziyakumkhonza: Futhi ziyakubona ubuso bakhe, negama lakhe liyakuba semabunzini azo. Futhi ubusuku abusayikuba khona; nabadingi ukukhanya kwesibani, nokukhanya kwelanga; ngokuba inkosi uNkulunkulu iyakubakhanyisela: futhi bayakubusa phakade naphakade.”(IsAmbulo 22:1-5) Ngaso sonke isikhathi lapho sicula la mazwi, izinhliziyo zethu ziphuphuma injabulo nokugculiseka, kugobhoza izinyembezi emehlweni ethu. Mayibongwe iNkosi ngokusikhetha, mayibongwe iNkosi ngomusa Wayo. Manje isinike okuningi, isinike ukuphila okungunaphakade ezweni elizayo, futhi uma ingathi asife manje, singenza kanjalo ngaphandle kokukhononda. Nkosi! Sicela uze ngokushesha! Ungephuzi ngisho nangomzuzu, ngoba siyakulangazelela, futhi sidele konke ngenxa Yakho.

Akekho onendaba nokuba khona Kwakhe, akekho okwazi ukucabanga umsebenzi Wakhe, futhi akekho onomqondo wokuthi ungubani. Simane siqhubeka nezinto esizifunayo, njengokungathi Yena akahlanganise lutho nathi…
UMoya oNgcwele uveza igama elithi “Ngaye,” futhi nakuba kungalindelekile, siyabona ukuthi lokhu kuyinto kaNkulunkulu, futhi siyakwamukela ngoba kuvela kuNkulunkulu. Lokho kungenxa yokuthi, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi la mazwi avela kubani, uma nje esavela kuMoya oNgcwele kufanele siwamukele, asinakuwaphika. Izwi elilandelayo lingavela ngami, noma ngawe, noma Ngaye. Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi livela ngobani, onke angumusa kaNkulunkulu. Kodwa akunandaba ukuthi umuntu ungubani, akufanele simkhonze, yena nanoma yini enye, akanakuba uNkulunkulu; ngeke nangayiphi indlela sikhethe umuntu ojwayelekile, abe uNkulunkulu wethu. UNkulunkulu wethu mkhulu futhi uhloniphekile; angamelwa kanjani umuntu ongabalulekile? Okukhulu, ukuthi sonke silinde ukufika kukaNkulunkulu ukuze asiyise embusweni wezulu, ngakho umuntu ongabalulekile angafaneleka kanjani ukwenza lowo msebenzi obalulekile? Uma iNkosi ibuya, kumele ibe sefwini elimhlophe, ibonakala kubo bonke. Yeka indlela lokho okuyokhazimula ngayo! Angakwazi kanjani ukuzifihla eqenjini labantu abajwayelekile?
Kodwa futhi ngumuntu ojwayelekile ocashe phakathi kwabantu owenza umsebenzi omusha wokusisindisa. Akasicaciseli lutho, akasitsheli nokuthi yini ayizele. Umane wenza umsebenzi ahlose ukuwenza ezigabeni Zakhe, futhi ngokuvumelana necebo Lakhe. Amazwi nezinto Zakhe kuyejwayeleka. Kusukela ekududuzeni, ekuzikhandleni, ekukhumbuzeni, kanye nokwexwayisa, kuya ekusoleni nasekusiyaleni; kusukela ephimbweni elinomusa kuye emazwini anolaka nanamandla amakhulu—onke anobubele nokukhathazeka kumuntu. Konke akushoyo kuhlaba esikhonkosini ngezimfihlo ezithukuswe kithi, amazwi Akhe ahlaba izinhliziyo zethu, ahlaba umoya wethu, asishiye sishaywa amahloni futhi sihlazekile. Siqala ukuzibuza ukuthi uNkulunkulu enhliziyweni yalo muntu uyasithanda ngempela yini, futhi yini ngempela ahlose ukuyenza. Mhlawumbe singajabula ngemva kokubekezelela izinhlungu ezinjalo? Emakhanda ethu siyabala… ngesikhathi esizayo nangomphumela wethu. Futhi akekho kithi okholelwa ukuthi uNkulunkulu uyishiyile inyama Yakhe usebenza phakathi kwethu. Ngisho noma ebe nathi isikhathi eside, nakuba esekhulume amazwi amaningi kangaka sibhekene ubuso nobuso Naye, asikazimiseli ukwamukela umuntu ongajwayelekile njengoNkulunkulu ekusaseni lethu, ingasaphathwa eyokwethemba umuntu onjalo ngekusasa nomphumela wethu. Kuye sithola amanzi angapheli okuphila, futhi siyambonga ngoba manje siphila noNkulunkulu. Sibonga kuphela umusa weNkosi uJesu emazulwini, futhi asikaze sinake imizwa yalo muntu ojwayelekile onobunkulunkulu. Usawenza umsebenzi Wakhe ngokuzithoba ezifihle enyameni, eveza izwi lenhliziyo Yakhe, okubonakala kungenandaba ukuthi aphikwe isintu, kuze kube phakade umuntu enobungane nokunganaki, futhi Yena embekezelela umuntu.
Engaziwa kithi, lo muntu ongabalulekile usiholele ezigabeni zomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu. Sidlula ezilingweni ezingenakubalwa, ekusolweni okungabaleki, futhi savivinywa ukufa.

Unomusa kithi, uyasikhathalela, uyasiphakamisa, uyasiduduza futhi asigqugquzele, uyasiqondisa, uyasikhanyisela, uyasisola futhi asiyale, aze ngisho asiqalekise. Ukhathazeka ngathi ubusuku nemini, uyasivikela ubusuku nemini, akalokothi asishiye, usinakekela ngazo zonke izindlela akhokhe noma yiliphi inani. Phakathi kwamazwi ale nyama engatheni najwayelekile, siye sajabulela ukuphelela kukaNkulunkulu, futhi sabona ikusasa uNkulunkulu asibekele lona. Kodwa naphezu kwalokhu, ukuzidla kusagcwele ezinhliziyweni zethu, futhi asikazimiseli ukwamukela umuntu ofana noNkulunkulu wethu.
