Hazvishamisi here kuti Shoko raMwari rinogona kuva netapuro inoshamisa zvakadaro paupenyu hwedu? Kubata ikoko ndiko kutarisisa zvawave kuda kuverenga - Zvauchaitirwa neShoko raMwari.

Chokwadi, iko zvino patinotanga chidzidzo chino, ndinoda kukukumbirai kuti muvhure mwoyo wenyu kuti mugamuchire chokwadi ichi nemafungiro etarisiro. Tarisira kugamuchira chimwe chinhu chakanaka uye chakanaka kubva padzidziso iyi.

Shoko raMwari Ibenyu

Pfungwa yekutanga yatinofanira kunzwisisa muchidzidzo chino maererano nechimiro cheShoko raMwari ndeichi: rakasiyana nemamwe. Shoko raMwari rakatosiyana nezvimwe zvese zvatichasangana nazvo muhupenyu hwedu hwose. Shoko raMwari haringori zvitema pabepa jena. Kune zvakawanda zvakawanda kwazviri kupfuura izvozvo.

Kuti tizive zvakaita Shoko raMwari, tinofanira kuenda kuBhaibheri pacharo. Nzvimbo yakanakisisa yokuwana nayo mashoko pamusoro peShoko raMwari inowanwa muShoko raMwari. Necho kuva chokwadi, ndinoda kutanga nokukuratidzai zvimwe zvezvinhu izvo Shoko raMwari rinotaura pamusoro paro.

Ngatitangei pana Pisarema 33:6, iyo inoti:

“Kudenga denga kwakaitwa neshoko raJehovha, uye hondo dzaro dzose nokufema kwomuromo wake. (NAS)

Apo shanduro iyi inoti “chifemo,” shoko rechiHebheru rinoreva kuti “mudzimu.” Pane ukama hwepedyo pakati peshoko rokuti “mudzimu” nerokuti “kufema.” Mweya Mutsvene (Mweya waMwari) mumagwaro unonzi “mweya weWamasimbaose. “Asi tinofanira kuona kuti zvikamu zviviri zviri kutaurwa muvhesi iyi iShoko raShe uye Mweya waShe.

Nemasimba maviri aya anoshanda pamwechete-Izwi raIshe neMweya waIshe-pasi rose rakasikwa rakavapo. Neshoko raJehovha uye noMweya waMwari, matenga nehondo dzawo dzose zvakaitwa.

Simba Rezvakasikwa

Imwe yenheyo huru yatinofanira kunzwisisa ndeyekuti Shoko raMwari neMweya waMwari zvinoshanda pamwechete nguva dzose. Vanoshanda mukuwirirana kwakakwana. Izvi tinozviona kubva pakutanga kweBhaibheri. Mashoko ari muna Genesisi 1:2 anosimbisa chokwadi ichi: “Mweya waMwari waifamba pamusoro pemvura.” Ipapo ndima inotevera inoti, “Mwari akati” ndiko kuti, Shoko raMwari rakabuda. Pakuvamba chaiko kwechisiko, tinoona Shoko noMweya waMwari uchishanda pamwe chete. Apo masimba iwayo akabatanidzwa nenzira iyoyo, muuyo wakanga uri wokusika. Mwari akati, “Chiedza ngachivepo,” chiedza chikavapo.

Tinofanira kunzwisisa kuti simba rekusika riri seri kwepasi rose iShoko neMweya waMwari uchishanda pamwechete. Nei izvi zvichikosha? Nokuti paunogamuchira Shoko noMweya waMwari muupenyu hwako, uri kugamuchira simba rose rokusika raMwari. Kana zvikamu izvi zvasangana mauri, iro simba chairo rakaita kuti chisikwa ichi chivepo rinowanikwa kwauri.

Shoko raMwari harimbokundikani

Rumwe rutivi rweShoko raMwari runotaurwa muna Isaya55:11. Mundima iyoyo Mwari anozivisa kuti Shoko rake harizombokundikani muchinangwa charo.

“Ndizvo zvichaita shoko rangu rinobuda mumuromo mangu; haringadzokeri kwandiri risina chinhu [kana kuti risingashandi]; pasina kuita zvandinoda, uye pasina kubudirira panyaya yandakatumira. (NAS)

Shoko raMwari parinobuda, rinoita zvaanoda kuti riite. Inobudirira muchinangwa chaanoitumira. Izvi zvinoreva kuti unogona kuvimba neShoko raMwari zvakazara. Tingatoti pane vimbiso yakanyorwa yekuti ichaita zvayatumwa kuita. Kana iwe waizotenga imwe mhando yemidziyo muchitoro, kazhinji kazhinji mugadziri anokupa vimbiso yakanyorwa yezvawakatenga. Kutaura zvazviri, Isaya 55:11 ivimbiso yakanyorwa naMwari. Anovimbisa kuti Shoko rake richaita chaizvo zvaanotaura kuti richaita.

MuTestamente Itsva, Jesu anosimbisa chokwadi ichi paakataura mazwi anotevera kubva muna Johane 6:63b:

Mashoko andataura kwamuri ndiwo Mweya uye upenyu. (NAS)

Jesu aireva kuti mashoko aMwari haasi manzwi emumhepo chete, kana kuti zviratidzo zvepapepa. Ari kutaura kuti mumashoko aya makatakurwa Mweya chaiwo noupenyu hwaMwari pachake.

Kumwe kusimbisa chokwadi ichi kunowanikwa muna VaHebheru 4:12, patine kutaura uku pamusoro peShoko raMwari:

“Nokuti shoko raMwari ibenyu uye rine simba uye rinopinza kukunda munondo unocheka kumativi maviri, rinobaya kusvikira panoparadzana mwoyo nomweya, namafundo nomwongo, uye rinokwanisa kutonga pfungwa nezvinangwa zvemweya. mwoyo.” (NAS)

Izwi rakashandurwa kuti “kushanda” muchiGiriki ndiro izwi chairo ratinowana izwi reChirungu rokuti “simba”. Tome, iwoyo mufananidzo wakajeka weShoko raMwari. Hupenyu; ine simba; riri kupinda. Inosvika munzvimbo iri yose yohunhu hwomunhu—pfungwa, mudzimu, mweya, uye kunyange muviri wenyama. Kwose kwose kunoshandiswa Shoko raMwari, rinouya nevimbiso yakanyorwa yokuti richakuitira zvakanaka.

Ichi ndicho chivimbiso chaMwari maererano neShoko Rake: richazadzisa muupenyu hwako chinangwa chaakaritumira.

Mapinduriro Atinoita

Kupedzisa dunhu pachokwadi ichi, tave kuzotarisa chikamu chedu munyaya iyi. Iyi nhau yose haisati ichingova zvayo nhau yokuti Shoko raMwari chii kana kuti izvo Shoko raMwari richakuitirai. Kuvimbika kwayo kunovimbiswa. Izvo hazvina kushanduka sezvakaita Mwari pachavo. Zvisinei, mugumisiro uchabudiswa neShoko raMwari mauri kana kwandiri zvinoenderana nemabatiro atinoita.

Muchikamu chino ndichakutsanangurirai kuti tinofanirwa kudaira sei kuShoko raMwari. Tinofanira kuita sei kuti tiwane makomborero ose nezvikomborero izvo Mwari anoda kuti tive nazvo?

Muna 1 VaTesaronika 2:13, Pauro anonyora mashoko aya:

“Nemhaka iyi nesuwo tinogara tichivonga Mwari, kuti pamakagamuchira shoko raMwari, ramakanzwa kwatiri, hamuna kurigamuchira seshoko ravanhu, asi sezvariri, iro shoko raMwari, ramakanzwa kwatiri. anoita basa rawo mamuri imi vanotenda. (NAS)

Pane zvinhu zviviri zvinodiwa kuti tiite kana shoko raMwari rauya kwatiri. Kutanga, hatifaniri kuatora semamwe marudzi ezvinyorwa zvevanhu kana kuti mashoko evanhu. Pane kudaro tinofanira kubvuma kuti ishoko rinobva kuna Mwari zvakananga. IShoko raMwari—kwete romunhu.

Chechipiri, tinofanira kuigamuchira nokutenda. Tinofanira kuzvitenda. Pauro anotaura kuti patinorigamuchira seShoko raMwari kwatiri—uye tichitenda Shoko iri—rinobva “riita basa raro” matiri. Zvinoita zvinodiwa naMwari.

Ndapota rangarira izvi zviviri zvinodiwa. Kutanga, unofanira kurigamuchira seShoko raMwari, kwete seshoko rinobva kumunhu. Chechipiri, unofanira kuzvigamuchira nokutenda, uchitenda kuti zvinokwanisa kuita mauri zvinodiwa naMwari.

Zvinodiwa Pakugamuchira

Bhuku raJakobho rinounzawo chimwe chinhu kunhaurirano iyi. Tinoona pana Jakobho 1:21 kuti pane zvinodiwa zvetsika zvatinofanira kuita kuti tibatsirwe zvizere neShoko raMwari.

“Naizvozvo bvisai tsvina yose nezvose zvinosara pakuipa, mugamuchire nokuzvininipisa shoko rakasimwa mukati menyu, rinogona kuponesa mweya yenyu. (NAS)

Cherechedza izwi iri "rakasimwa." Shoko raMwari chinhu chine hupenyu mariri chinozokura matiri. Saka kana ukaugamuchira—kana ukaudyara mumwoyo mako nomuupenyu—uchadzika midzi imomo. Kufanana nomuti wemichero, uchakura wobereka zvibereko izvo Mwari anoronga.

Pane zvinodiwa zviviri zvinotaurwa mundima iyi. Chokutanga pane zvose, zvakaipa. Tinofanira kusiya tsvina uye huipi. Nemamwe mashoko, tinofanira kuita kuti upenyu hwedu hucheneswe. Hazvina kunaka kubatirira kuchivi, kupanduka uye humwe hunhu hwakaipa muhupenyu hwedu, tichitarisira kuti Shoko raMwari riite zvaanovimbisa. Izvozvo hazvizoitiki.

Chechipiri, tinofanira kugamuchira Shoko nekuzvininipisa. Ichi chinhu chakakosha zvikuru chinodiwa. Kana tichizvininipisa, tinodzidzisika. Hatiite semwana ane misikanzwa, tichipindura Mwari kana kuedza kumuudza zvekuita. Pane kudaro, tinogamuchira nekuzvininipisa zvaari kutaura kwatiri. Kana tikapindura nekuzvininipisa chete ndipo paachapedza Shoko rake muupenyu hwedu.

Kuzvininipisa Nekutya Kunoremekedza

Ndinoda kutaura chimwe chokwadi chinokosha sezvatinopedzisa chikamu chino cheShoko raMwari. Mwari pachake anosarudza vadzidzi vake. Kana uchida kuva mumwe wevadzidzi vaMwari—mumwe wevaya vanodzidza kubva kuna Mwari—unofanira kuita zvaanoda. Zvinodiwa izvozvo zvinonyatsotaurwa pana Pisarema 25:8-9, 12, 14 .

“Jehovha akanaka uye akarurama; naizvozvo anodzidzisa vatadzi nzira. Anotungamirira vanozvininipisa mukururamisira; Uye anodzidzisa vanozvininipisa nzira yake. Ndiani munhu anotya Jehovha? Achamurayiridza nzira yaanofanira kusarudza. Chakavanzika chaJehovha ndechevanomutya; Uye achaita kuti vazive sungano yake.” (NAS)

Aya mavhesi ane simba anotaura pamusoro pezvimwe zvakakosha zvehunhu zvinodiwa. Tinozvigadzirira sei kuti Mwari vatidzidzise nzira Yavo nekutiita kuti tinzwisise chibvumirano Chavo? Hatifanire kuzvininipisa chete, asiwo, tinofanira kutya (nokuremekedza) Ishe. Izvi zvinhu zviviri zvinodikanwa zvakakwana zvatinofanira kuita kuti tigamuchire Shoko raMwari muupenyu hwedu.

Kuzvininipisa uye kutya Jehovha zvine rukudzo kunofanira kuvapo kuti tione Shoko rake richizadzisa zvaarituma kuti riite muhupenyu hwedu. Kana tichizopinzwa muzvakavanzika zvaMwari zvinoshamisa—kana Iye achizogovera mifungo Yake inoshamisa nezvinangwa—tinofanira kusvitsa zvinodikanwa izvi.

Kune vanhu vakawanda—vamwe vakatonyoresa kuzvikoro zveBhaibheri, zvikoro zvebhaibheri kana zvikoro zvebhaibheri—vane ruzivo rwakanyanya mumusoro. Zvakadaro Mwari haana kumbobvira agamuchira vamwe veavo vane ruzivo rwemusoro sevadzidzi vake. Sei? Nekuti havana kusangana nehunhu hwaKe hunodiwa. Ndezvipi zvinodiwa izvozvo? Kuzvininipisa uye kutya nekuremekedza Mwari.

Zvino, ndinoda kukupikisa. Ndinoda kukubvunza mubvunzo wakananga. Panguva ino, uchasarudza kuva nemafungiro anodiwa kuShoko raMwari here? Uchazvininipisa noruremekedzo here pakutaura kwako naMwari neShoko Rake?

Kana chiri chishuwo chako, uye uchida kuzvipira uku, ndinokumbira kuti uzvisimbise nemunamato unotevera:
