UMariya noYosefu babesebatsha. La maKristu mabini athembisayo ayecinga ngomtshato ngekamva lawo yaye ngequbuliso kwenzeka into engakholelekiyo kuye nawuphi na umntu.
UMariya, owayeyintombi enyulu engumKristu, wayekhulelwe. UJosé wayengaqondi ukuba, ubunyulu beqabane lakhe babubalasele yaye buncinane ubungqina bokuba wayenokuba neentlobano zesini nayo nayiphi na enye inkwenkwe edolophini.
Ngoko ke, aba batshatayo babesoyika uluvo ababenokuba nalo abantu ngenxa yolwalamano lwabo, imeko engaqondakaliyo kaMaria kunye nobungqina bakhe obubangel’ umdla: UThixo umnike intsikelelo yonyana esibelekweni sakhe.
Xa eli bali lalisasazwa ngabantu, isikhundla awasithabathayo uJosé sasincomeka.
Wayithabatha indima yakhe njengeqabane likaMaria waza wathembela kuye ngokupheleleyo nakwiNkosi, yaye ke, ngokungafaniyo noko kwakuya kwenziwa ngamanye amadoda amaninzi, wayehlala yaye esiya rhoqo ngenyanga yokukhulelwa kwentombi yakhe, eyayithwele uewe kuNyana kaNtathu. uThixo.
Eli bali lebhayibhile limele uthando olungagungqiyo kuhlobo lwalo lomntu. Uthando olugqibeleleyo lolo lukaThixo yaye nguye kuphela oza eluthandweni ngeyona ndlela inyulu.
Umbuzo ngowomKristu ofunda ukuthanda lowo amthandayo njengoko uThixo ebeya kwenza.
Lo ngumzekelo owamiselwa nguYosefu. Yena, ngenxa yenkalipho yakhe, uthando lwakhe olungagungqiyo, intembelo awayeyibeke kwintombi awayeza kutshata nayo nokholo awayelugcine kuThixo wakhe, wahlala waza wajamelana nomgwebo okhohlakeleyo womntu ngamnye owaphakamisa ilizwi lakhe ukuze agqabaze ngobukrwada endleleni yakhe.

Umkhombe kaNowa
UNowa wayeyindoda nje eqhelekileyo eyasindiswa emehlweni kaThixo xa uluntu lwaluvutha ngumsindo yaye luvalekile kumoya kaYise.
Kwanaxa umntu wayelawulwa ngokupheleleyo bubungendawo nobutyhefu botshaba, uNowa wayekholekile kuThixo, wayethandaza ngokusuka entliziyweni yonke imihla kwaye enze ukuthanda kweNkosi.
Xa uBawo wabona ukuba uluntu luthabatha ikhondo elingenakulungiseka, wagqiba kwelokuba asebenzise ubulungisa bakhe bobuthixo emhlabeni.
Ngenxa yoku, wayefuna umntu okwaziyo ukubuyisela uxolo emhlabeni kunye nosapho lwakhe kwaye avelise kwakhona ukudala umnombo ozele uxolo kunye nemvisiswano.
Emva koko uThixo wakhetha uNowa waza wamxelela ukuba akhe umkhombe, apho wayeza kubeka uhlobo ngalunye lwezilwanyana neentlobo ezahlukeneyo awayenokuzifumana emhlabeni.
Wathi akukuthetha oko uNowa, akazange akuthandabuze ukuthanda kukaYehova, waza walimisela icebo lakhe. Noko ke, ebona ukuba ubuncwane neengcamango zinqongophele yaye ukuphumeza icebo elinjalo kwakuya kusiba nzima ngakumbi, waqalisa ukuthetha noThixo ukuze ambonise indlela.
Waza ke wazingisa ngakumbi ukuba uThixo uya kumbonisa indlela, kodwa akazange ayilahle injongo yakhe.
UNowa wayesoloko eqinile kuwo wonke umzuzu, kuba akazange abonakalise buthathaka kumathandabuzo akhe, kodwa wakhangela uThixo ukuba amkhokele kwicebo awayezimisele ukulifeza.
Lahamba ixesha waza uNowa wathatha imbopheleleko yakhe njengonyuliweyo. Wayevuka yonke imihla kwangaxeshanye, evuka ekuseni ukuze aqokelele iinkuni ezaneleyo zokwakha umkhombe omkhulu owawunokuhamba nawo zonke izilwanyana awayenokuzifumana.
Ngelixa bonke abanye abantu batshona ekutshabalaleni, wayesenza owona msebenzi unyanzelwayo nonzima, ngokwasemzimbeni nasengqondweni, umntu anokuwenza. Oku wakwenza ngenxa yokuba yayikukuthanda kukaThixo.
Nangona kunjalo, i-protagonist yeli bali yayingengoNowa kuphela; Abantwana bakhe nomfazi wakhe nabo bahlala beceba kangangexesha elide ukwenza icebo libe nempumelelo ukuze bazalisekise imfuneko engcwele kaBawo.
Ngenxa yozimiselo lwalo mKristu uncomekayo, icebo likaThixo laphunyezwa emhlabeni yaye emva kokuba uNowa egqibile ukwakha umkhombe, esoyisa ukugxekwa okwakuvakala ezindlebeni zakhe nokutyeshela ukudinwa emzimbeni nasengqondweni, wakwazi ukuphumla.
Ngoxa wayephumle waphawula ukuba izilwanyana zivela macala onke zisiza ngasemnyango womkhombe wakhe, isilwanyana ngasinye sasemhlabeni sasikhona yaye emva koko zakhwela emkhombeni.
Ekufikeni kwaloo mini, uNowa nentsapho yakhe bangena emkhombeni waza uThixo wasenza mnyama isibhakabhaka ngamafu waza wakhulula eyona mvula yakha yabonwa ngabantu bonke.
Yaye kangangeentsuku ezingama-40 ezinoqhwithela, uThixo wawucoca kubo bonke ububi emhlabeni.
Ibali lisebenza njengomzekelo wendlela ukuthanda kukaThixo okufuneka kuhlale kuzalisekiswa ngayo ziingqondo ezizimiseleyo kukholo lwabo, ukholo oluqinisekileyo ngokupheleleyo njengoko lwalunjalo lukaNowa nosapho lwakhe.
Usapho lwakho kufuneka lusebenzise olu kholo ngokwemvelo ukuba ufuna ukukhula ngokomoya kwaye uphuhlise usuku ngalunye indlela yokudumisa uYehova ezisa impumelelo, iintsikelelo kunye novuyo.
Kwanaxa izinto zazibonakala zingenakwenzeka, uNowa akazange anikezele kuba wayekholelwa ngokwenene kwilizwi likaThixo nakwinjongo elalinayo ngaye. Lo ngomnye wemixholo emikhulu yobuKristu enokuxutyushwa yintsapho.
Yazi konke malunga Ubulungisa bukaThixo kule khonkco.
Esi sesona sifundo sibalulekileyo kwibali lonke, ungaze unikezele xa ufumana umyalezo ovela eNkosini. UmKristu wokwenyaniso akaze athabatheke bubuvila okanye amathandabuzo xa kufikelela kwisigidimi esivela kuBawo esicwangcisa ngokugqibeleleyo izicwangciso zakhe.
Intsapho yakho imele iqonde ukuba uThixo usoloko enyanisile kwizinto azibekela yona.
Ibali likaYotam, umkhonzi othembekileyo
Lo ngowona mxholo ubalaseleyo wobuKristu kusapho. UYotam ke wayengowamazibulo oyena wayenamandla kwisixeko siphela sakwaYuda. Wayengunyana kaUziya, ukumkani.
Lo kumkani, phambi kokuzalwa kukaYotham wayeziphathe kakuhle emehlweni kaThixo kwaye walandela indlela yakhe ngokuzinikela nokuthobeka. Xa umlinganiswa oyintloko weli bali wazalwa, ngasizathu sithile u-Uziya waphambuka endleleni yeNkosi waza waqalisa ukuphulukana neengqondo zakhe.
Wathi akukhula uYotham, ukumkani wakwaYuda washiywa ziingqondo, ngoko uThixo wagqiba kwelokuba amhlisele usizi olukhulu: wamohlwaya ngeqhenqa.
Ngeli xesha, uYotham wayesele echaphazeleke ngamandla sisigulo awayenaso uyise.
Wonke umntu wendlu ka-Uziya wayesazi ukuba isigulo awasizalelwayo sibangelwa kukungathobeli kwakhe. Ngokukodwa uYotham oselula wayesoloko ecinga ngale nto, kodwa wenza umahluko waza wenza ukuthanda kweNkosi.
Okwamangalisa abaninzi ababekwisangqa sikaUziya kukuba uYotam akazange ayeke ukuthembeka kuYehova. Phezu kwayo nje into yokuba uyise wayemgulise ngokugula njengesohlwayo ngenxa yekratshi nokuhlaziswa kwakhe, akazange ayeke ukukhonza uMdali wakhe.
Eli candelo leBhayibhile linemfundiso ebaluleke kakhulu kubomi bawo wonke umKristu.
Amaxesha amaninzi, amaKristu adla ngokuyishiya indlela yeNkosi kuba umntu omthandayo wohlwaywa ngokugula, ngokufa okanye naluphi na uhlobo losizi. Into abaninzi abangayaziyo kukuba le yimiphumo yokusesikweni kukaThixo kwihlabathi lanamhlanje.
Umntu ofuna ukufa uya kufumana ukufa ngokwebhayibhile kwaye lowo ufuna ubomi uya kubufumana ubomi. Ukuba uyihlo, unyoko, umntakwenu okanye iqabane lakho liye lagula, bekungayi kuba yinto efanelekileyo ukugxeka uThixo ngentlungu yabo.
Ngokuchasene noko, kuyimfuneko ukulandela umzekelo kaYotham kwaye uqhubeke ukhala ngenxa yenceba yeNkosi ebomini bakho kwaye ngoko uthandazela ukusindiswa komntu omthandayo.
Ukufundisisa nokuqonda oku kubaluleke gqitha ngokwentelekiso kwintsapho nganye.
INdumiso 27:10 kaDavide
KwiNdumiso 27:10, umprofeti uDavide ubalisa oku kulandelayo:
Ukuba ubawo noma umama uthe wawuzalisa umphefumlo wabo ngobugwenxa, bandishiya, uBawo yena wondenza ikhaya losindiso lwabo. Kuba nam ndiyabathanda abazali bam, kodwa ndiyithanda ngakumbi iNkosi.
Kubalulekile ukuba ufunde nzulu le ndinyana ngokuyifunda, njengoko intsingiselo yayo inokuntsonkotha ngakumbi kwaye ibe namandla.
Xa uDavide ethetha ngokulahlwa kwabazali bakhe, ukwenza njani oko?
Imixholo emininzi yamaKristu entsatsheni ithetha ngentsingiselo emibini okanye ngokufuziselayo kwaye ngenxa yesi sizathu, ukuze uqonde le ndinyana kuyimfuneko ukufunda indlela yokufunda iBhayibhile.
Ngeli xesha xa uDavide ecebisa ukuba ukuba abazali bakhe bamshiyile, wayeya kuqhubeka kusindiswa umbulelo kuzuko lweNkosi. Kodwa eli candelo lombhalo weendumiso likwayifihla enye intsingiselo yaye enento yokwenza nemilinganiselo yokuziphatha eyabonwa ngaphambili kaYotam noUziya.
Kuya kwenzeka ntoni ukuba umntu esimthandayo uyawushiya umendo kaBawo? Oko kukuthandabuza ukuba eminye imiba yobuKristu yentsapho ifuna ukucaciswa.
Oku kunokuba yimeko enzima ngokwenene ukujamelana nayo kumaKristu asaqalayo kukholo olungcwele, nangona kunjalo, ngokuqhelisela olu lwazi kunye nokulandela umzekelo kaDavide, ukoyisa le meko enzima kuya kuba lula kakhulu.
UDavide ukwanikela njengomzekelo wokuba ukuba umntu othandekayo uyaphambuka endleleni yeNkosi aze avumele umphefumlo wakhe wonakaliswe, kuphela loo maKristu abuthathaka nawo aya kuphambuka.
Ezi meko zixhaphake kakhulu, ngaphezu kwayo yonke into kwizibini. Kwenzeka rhoqo ukuba xa umntu eshiya iingalo zeNkosi, omnye uthathwa yile mikhwa kwaye ulandele isenzo esibi emehlweni kaYehova.
Oku kwenzeka rhoqo ukuze avunywe okanye ngenxa yokuba eneneni uthando onalo ngaloo mntu lukhulu kunolo unalo ngoMoya oyiNgcwele kaThixo.
Uya kubona ukuba lo mxholo uvakala kakhulu kusapho. Ngokuqhelekileyo kuyenzeka ukuba xa ilungu lentsapho lizixhalabele xa lisiya ebandleni, izalamane zalo ngandlel’ ithile, zisazi naxa zingekho zingqondweni, zifane nalo.
Duteronomi 12: 28
KwiDuteronomi, kukho indinyana ethile enemfundiso enkulu nefaneleke ngakumbi ukuba ifundwe yintsapho iphela. Ithi oku kulandelayo:
Ilizwi ngalinye endikuthuma ngalo liwaphaphele, ukuze uqonde ukuba, xa uthe wenza okulungileyo ngokokubona koMdali wakho, onguYihlo, uya kusoloko unempumelelo, kuwe nakwinzala yakho.
Isifundo esibalulekileyo amele asifunde wonke umKristu ebomini bakhe. Le ndinyana ibaluleke kakhulu kuba, ukubeka ecaleni umba wokomoya, abantwana babalulekile kwanaxa kuqalwa ubuhlobo bothando.
UThixo uthembisa, kanye njengoko wathembisa uAbraham, ukuba ukulunga komntu akwenzayo ebomini bakhe kuya kubuyiselwa njengentsikelelo ekwandisweni kwakhe.
Umnombo wengcwele uya kuba nempumelelo kwaye ube ngcwele. Khawucinge nje ngendlela umoya wobuKristu okhuthazwa ngayo umninimzi yimfundiso yale ndinyana.
UYoshuwa 24: 15
Kwincwadi kaYoshuwa kukho indinyana, apho ivakalisa imfundiso enkulu ngobomi bosapho ngokuphathelele indlela yeNkosi nomanyano lwamaKristu kwimekobume yosapho.
Ukuba nisenawo nawaphi na amathandabuzo, khethani ngalo mhla lowo ninqwenela ukumkhonza.
