Amandla Vuko yakhe (pt 2)

2.1 IPosi Laphezulu – noma, 'Izipho zikabani?’

Funda 1 Cor 12:4-11 (nb. 1 Cor 12:7). Izipho zomoya zinikezwa nguMoya oNgcwele ukuze kuzuze bonke. Umuntu osebenzisa isipho esinjalo akayena umsunguli waso futhi (ngaphandle kokukodwa esizoxoxa ngakho kamuva) umamukeli ohlosiwe. Kunalokho, ‘unguposi’ kaNkulunkulu, sinikezwe umsebenzi wokuletha isipho kumamukeli esihlosiwe. NguMoya oNgcwele onikeza isipho futhi onqumayo ukuthi ubani ozosiletha.

Ukungaqondi kahle lesi simiso esilula kodwa esibalulekile kusezimpandeni eziningi zezinhlelo zethu uma kuziwa ekukhonzeni amandla kaNkulunkulu kwabanye.. Ake sithi sisanda kubhekana nothile osesimweni esicindezelayo sokuswela. Kuyini ukusabela kwethu?

• ‘Ukube nje bengingenza okuthile.’
• ‘Yini okufanele nginikele ngayo?’
• ‘Ukube nje bengingokomoya ngokwengeziwe, Ngingahle ngikwazi ukukhuleka futhi ngithole isimangaliso.’
• ‘Kungani uNkulunkulu engenzi okuthile?’

Esihlulekayo ukukwazisa ukuthi uMoya oNgcwele usuvele ukhona; ngaphakathi kwethu, ukubheka leso simo ngeso lethu. UnguMoya kaKristu, uMthandazeli, uMoya womusa noMuphi wezipho. Okudingekayo nje ukwenza ukuxhumana ukuthi kufanele sikulungele ukusebenza njengonoposi wakhe – ethatha noma yini asinika yona ngaleso sikhathi futhi ayidlulise!

Kuyiphutha eliwubuwula ukucabanga ukuthi ukufaneleka kwethu siqu kuhlobene kakhulu nalokhu. Uke wenqaba ukuthumela isipho komunye umuntu ngenxa yokuthi awuzange ucabange kakhulu ngeposi? Ngokuyisisekelo, Ngicabanga ngezinto ezine kuphela ngomuntu weposi ezingangenza ngigweme ukusebenzisa izinkonzo zakhe:

• Uma ehlulekile ukuletha iphakethe njengoba eceliwe (Ez. 3:18)
• Uma evumele ukuthi lonakaliswe (Job 42:7, Jer. 23:28)
• Uma eqale ukufuna inkokhelo noma amalungelo kumamukeli (Acts 8:20-1, 2 Kings 5:8-27).
• Uma ekwenza kubonakale sengathi yena, hhayi mina, bekunguye umuphi (Is. 42:8 & 48:11)

Qaphela lokho, enezithelo ezichazwe njengobufakazi bokukhonza uNkulunkulu kweqiniso (Mt 7:20), UJesu uyaqhubeka exwayisa ngalabo abambiza ngokuthi iNkosi – ngisho nokuprofetha nokwenza izimangaliso egameni lakhe – kodwa abangababi ngempela (Mt 7:21-3). Ngokufanayo, ngemva kokutshela ibandla laseKorinte ‘abantuli noma yisiphi isipho esingokomoya’ (1 Cor 1:5-7) UPawulu ubagxeka ‘njengabezwe’ (1 Cor 3:3).

Abantu abaziqhenyayo ngengokomoya labo ngoba kaningi besetshenziswa ukukhonza izipho zomoya benza iphutha elikhulu. Ngokwesinye isandla, uma uNkulunkulu engasebenzisa imbongolo eyisimungulu njengomkhulumeli wakhe (Num. 22:21-33), angangisebenzisa impela!

2.2 Ukubonakaliswa kanye Nezinkonzo

Abanye abantu bavame ukusetshenziswa ekusebenziseni izipho ezithile; kanti ezinye zingasetshenziswa ngezikhathi ezithile kuphela, futhi hhayi njalo ngendlela efanayo. UPawulu wenza umehluko phakathi ‘kokubonakaliswa’ kaMoya kanye nalabo abakhonza njalo ezindaweni ezithile, kungaba ngeziphiwo ezingaphezu kwemvelo njengokuphilisa noma ezemvelo njengokuphatha (1 Cor 12:7-10 & 28-30). Kodwa kufanele ukuqonde lokho, nakuba uNkulunkulu engase angakusebenzisi ngendlela ethile, uyakwazi ukubonakalisa noma yisiphi sezipho ngawe uma kuphakama isidingo. UMoya oNgcwele okuwe awehlukile kuMoya oNgcwele owawukuPawulu; noma uJesu.

2.3 Ivuse isipho

UPawulu ugcizelela ukuthi labo abaprofetha futhi bakhulume ngezilimi bangakhetha ukuthi bazokwenza noma cha (1 Cor 14:26-32). Futhi utshela abaseKorinte ukuba ‘balangazelele izipho ezinkulu’ noThimothewu ukuba ‘bavuthele elangabini lesipho sikaNkulunkulu, elikuwe ngokubekwa kwezandla zami.’ (1 Cor 12:31 & 2 Tim 1:6).

Nakuba uMoya uzokwembula ukuthi ufuna ukusisebenzisa kanjani futhi nini, kukithi ukuhlakulela isifiso kanye nokulungela Yena ukwenza kanjalo. Kufanele futhi siqinisekise ukuthi izithelo zikaMoya ziyabonakala ekusebenzeni kwazo (yingakho uPawulu enqamula ingxoxo yakhe yezipho ukuze agcizelele ukubaluleka kothando ku 1 Cor 13:1-16). Njengonoposi, asithumeli isipho; kodwa siyanquma ukuthi nini, ihanjiswa kanjani futhi ikusiphi isimo.

2.4 Zisetshenziswa kanjani Izipho?

2.4.1 Izipho Zokuqonda

Lokhu kubonisa ukuthi uNkulunkulu wazi konke ngathi, njalo uyazi ukuthi enzeni.

Ukwehlukanisa Imimoya ukwambulwa kwamandla kamoya asebenza esimweni (eyengelosi, womuntu noma idemoni) (Acts 16:16-8). IZwi Lolwazi lembula ulwazi oluthile ngomuntu noma isimo (John 4:16-8): kanti iZwi loKuhlakanipha liveza noma yini okumele yenziwe mayelana nesimo (Mt 22:15-22, Luke 21:12-5) noma ukuqonda okukhethekile kweqiniso likamoya (1 Cor 15:51).

Lezi cishe izipho ezinzima kakhulu ukuzivocavoca ngoba, nakuba uNkulunkulu enikeza isambulo, indlela esisetshenziswa ngayo incike ngokuphelele kulowo osebenzisa isipho. (Zingaki ezinye izindlela uJesu ayengasebenzisa ngazo ulwazi ngowesifazane ku John 4:7-29, Ngokwesibonelo?) Lezi zipho kudingeka zixutshwe ngokukhululekile nesithelo somoya kulabo abazisebenzisayo. Kudinga nokuvuthwa okungokomoya ukuhlukanisa phakathi kwalokho okuvela kuNkulunkulu nemicabango yethu siqu.

Indlela okunikezwa ngayo izambulo iyehluka. Kungase kube izithombe ezisengqondweni, ukwanda kokuqwashisa, imibono, amaphupho, izehlakalo zemvelo ezisebenza ‘njengemifanekiso’, amazwi omBhalo athatha ukubaluleka okukhethekile, amazwi noma ulwazi olufika ngokusobala futhi olungabizwanga emqondweni, noma ngisho izwi elizwakalayo. Noma ngabe yisiphi isimo uNkulunkulu asisebenzisayo, kuzoba khona ukwazi ukuthi ukhuluma nawe.

Ekufundeni ukusebenzisa lezi zipho kubalulekile ukuba nombono ongokoqobo ngathi. Siyatshelwa, ‘Uma umuntu ekhuluma, kufanele akwenze njengomuntu okhuluma wona kanye amazwi kaNkulunkulu’ (1 Pet 4:11). Kodwa akufanele sidlule ukholo lwethu futhi sibeke imibono yethu njengezwi likaNkulunkulu; ngakho kufanele kube nokulingana lapha. Akufanele ‘sidobe’ ukuze uthole imikhondo bese umemezela isambulo esiphuphuthekisayo. Uma ungabaza, kungcono ukuthi uthule futhi usebenzise ulwazi ukuze uqondise imibuzo yakho noma usho ngokusobala, ‘Ngicabanga ukuthi uNkulunkulu uyasho…’

2.4.2 Izipho Zomboniso

Lokhu kubonisa ukuthi uNkulunkulu uyakwazi futhi uzimisele ukungenelela ezimpilweni zethu.

Kukhona ukugqagqana okukhulu lapha. Ukuphulukisa kungase kube okumangalisa kangangokuthi kubangele ukuchazwa njengezimangaliso. Izimangaliso zihlanganisa noma yikuphi ukumiswa kwaphezulu kwemithetho evamile yemvelo, njengokuphakela i 5,000 nokuvusa abafileyo. Nakuba wonke umKristu enokholo, isipho sokukholwa siwukuthelwa ngokuzumayo okwedlula okujwayelekile kumuntu osisebenzisayo.

Into eyinhloko okumelwe siyikhumbule ukuthi uNkulunkulu akalokothi enze ‘imilingo’ ngaphandle kwesizathu’ ukujabulisa abantu nje. Uthatha isinyathelo kuphela lapho kunesidingo sangempela esidinga ukungenela kwakhe futhi kukhona abantu abakulungele ngokomoya ukukwamukela. (Acts 14:8-10 & Mark 2:5). Uma lokho kwenzeka ujwayele ukuqaphela uMoya a) ukuvusa inhliziyo yakho mayelana nesimo kanye b) ukukugqugquzela ukuthi wenze noma usho okuthile. Ungabi novalo. Yenza okwakho ushiye konke kuNkulunkulu.

2.4.3 Izipho Zesimemezelo

Lokhu kusenza sikwazi ukumemezela iqiniso likaNkulunkulu ngokuzenzakalelayo.

Iziprofetho zihilela ukuqonda komuntu osebenzisa isipho; kanti izilimi ziyizilimi ezingaziwa okhulumayo, ngakho ukuqonda kweqiwa. Ngenxa yalokho, nakuba izilimi zingase zibonakale zingaphezu kwemvelo, ukuprofetha kudinga ukuvuthwa okwengeziwe ngokomoya futhi ngokuvamile kuhlotshaniswa nezipho zesambulo, ikakhulukazi kulabo abanenkonzo yobuphrofethi.

Nakuba umthetho ovamile ophathelene nezipho uwukuthi azinikezwa ukuze kuzuze lowo ozisebenzisayo, Izilimi ngokuyinhloko ziwulimi lomthandazo wangasese (1 Cor 14:4). Inhloso iwukuba okholwayo akheke emoyeni wakhe ngokunikwa amandla okukhuleka nokudumisa uNkulunkulu ngokukhululeka futhi aphuphume ebufakazini obuzenzakalelayo. (Acts 2:4-11).

Kuphela uma kuhambisana nokuhumusha lapho izilimi ziba isipho esiwusizo esingokoqobo ebandleni (1 Cor 14:5-13). Lokhu kunikeza ibhuloho phakathi kwezilimi nesiprofetho, ukuletha ukuqonda kolimi; kodwa kungadingi izinga elifanayo lokuvuthwa njengesiprofetho ekwahluleleni ukuthi kufanele sisetshenziswe nini futhi kanjani. Abanye bathi izilimi ziyimikhuleko njalo, nalapho kuhunyushwa: kepha Acts 2:11 futhi 1 Cor. 14:5-6 angase asikisele ngenye indlela.

Abaningi bacabanga ukuthi ngandlela-thile ingqondo, noma okungenani ulimi, ithathwa lapho abantu bekhuluma ngezilimi noma beprofetha. Kodwa, ngokungafani namazwi abangelwa ukuphupha, isinqumo sokuthi uzowunikeza nini futhi nini umlayezo sikusikhulumi (1 Cor 14:27-32), nakuba kunguMoya oNgcwele owenza (inikeza amandla okwenza kahle) (Acts 2:4). Ngakho, njengakuzo zonke izipho zomoya kuyadingeka ukuthi usebenze ngokholo. (Lokhu kudinga isimo sengqondo sokuncika okuphelele okushoyo, ‘Moya oNgcwele, Sengizovula umlomo wami futhi ngikhulume noma yimaphi amazwi owafaka engqondweni yami. Uma unganginiki amagama afanele, lokhu kuzoba umthwalo owodwa omubi kadoti: kodwa ngiyazi ukuthi uzokwenza okufanele ngoba uJesu wakuthembisa.’ (Gal 3:5 & Luke 11:11-3).)

Lapho uthandaza ngezilimi ungavumeli ukunaka kwakho kudonswe kuNkulunkulu (lowo okhuleka kuye) ezwini lolimi ngokwalo. NjengoPetru, ezama ukuhamba phezu kwamanzi amehlo akhe ephezu kwamagagasi, uzohamba. Ulimi luvame ukuzwakala njengenqaba, futhi ingase iphindaphindeke: kodwa ngokuvamile uzokhuluma kahle kakhulu njengoba uvulela iNkosi inhliziyo yakho.

Iziprofetho zivame ukubangela 'i-chain reaction', omunye evuselela omunye (1 Cor 14:29-31). Ulimi lubuye lukhuthaze ukuhumusha.

Ngezinye izikhathi abantu abasonqenqemeni lokunikeza incazelo bayadideka lapho othile ofika kuqala enikeza okubonakala kuwukuhumusha okuhlukile.. Kunezincazelo ezintathu ezingenzeka: mina) ukuhumusha kungase kubekwe ngendlela ehluke kakhulu kodwa nokho kudlulise umyalezo ofanayo, 2) lokho bona noma lowo okhuluma kuqala wayenakho empeleni kwakuyisiprofetho esikhulisa ulimi noma iii) bakuthola kungalungile. UDeveli uhlale eshesha ukusikisela lokhu kwakamuva; kodwa kufanele ngempela ihlolwe ngemibhalo nangokuqonda kwabanye.

2.5 Ukwenza noma ukungazenzi?

Kwesinye isikhathi ukugqugquzelwa nguMoya kufana ‘nokuhlebeza okumnene’ (1 Kings 19:12) futhi kwabanye ‘njengomlilo ovuthayo, zithulele emathanjeni ami’ (Jer 20:9). Akufanele sesabe kakhulu ukwenza amaphutha – UJesu ngeke asilahle (Mt 14:25-33). Njengazo zonke izikhathi, impikiswano eyinhloko ‘iwukuvumela ukuthula kukaNkulunkulu kubuse (lamula) enhliziyweni yakho’ (Col 3:15). Zibuze, ‘Okuyogcina ukuthula kwami ​​noNkulunkulu – ukwenza manje noma ukulinda?’ Vumela uNkulunkulu anakekele imiphumela.
