Ngo-Ephreli 22–28: “Bagcwele uThando lukaNkulunkulu kanye Nolwabantu Bonke”
uMosiya 1–3
Uma uzwa igama elithi inkosi, kungenzeka ucabange imiqhele, izisebenzi, kanye nezihlalo zobukhosi. Encwadini ka Mosiya 1–3, uzofunda ngohlobo olwehlukile lwenkosi. Kunokuba aphile ngokusebenza kwabantu bakhe, iNkosi uBenjamini “yasebenza ngezandla [zayo]” (uMosiya 2:14). Esikhundleni sokuba asetshenzelwe ngabanye, wasebenzela abantu bakhe “ngakho konke ukuqina, ingqondo kanye namandla iNkosi [eyayimnike] wona” (uMosiya 2:11). Lenkosi ayizange ifune ukuthi abantu bayo bayikhonze, kunalokho, yabafundisa ukuba bakhonze iNkosi yabo yaseZulwini, uJesu Kristu. INkosi uBenjamini yayikuqonda ukuthi “yiNkosi uMninimandla Onke ebusayo” (uMosiya 3:5), eyehla “ivela ezulwini” futhi yehlela “phakathi kwabantwana babantu, … ukuze insindiso ize kubantwana babantu ngisho nangokukholwa egameni lakhe” (uMosiya 3:5, 9).

“Niyicwaninge [imibhalo engcwele] ngokukhuthala.”
Kulamavesi, naka ukuthi lemibhalo engcwele yababusisa kanjani abantu beNkosi uBenjamini. Ngabe impilo yakho ingcono kanjani ngenxa yokuthi unemibhalo engcwele na?
Lapho ngisebenzela abanye, ngisuke ngisebenzela uNkulunkulu.
Ucabanga ukuthi iNkosi uBenjamini yayingathini uma wawumbuza ukuthi kungani yayisebenza ngakho konke “ukuqina, ingqondo, kanye namandla” na? (uMosiya 2:11). Cabanga ngalokhu njengoba ufunda uMosiya 2:10–26. Ngabe iNkosi uBenjamini yafundisani okukunika intshisekelo yokuba usebenzele abanye ngendlela enenzuzo kubo na?

Funa intshisekelo ngokuthi ungamsebenzela kanjani othile kulelisonto.

Enye indlela yokufunda incwadi ka Mosiya 2:10–26 wukwenza uhlu lamaqiniso iNkosi uBenjamini eyawafundisa angakusiza ukuba unqobe izinkinga ezingakuvimba ukuba ubasebenzele abanye.

Lapho ngisebenzela abanye, ngisuke ngisebenzela noNkulunkulu.

INkosi uBenjamini, njengabo bonke abaprofethi, yafakaza ngoJesu Kristu ukuze abantu bakhe “[bathole] ukuthethelelwa kwezono zabo, futhi bathokoze ngokuthokoza okukhulu” (uMosiya 3:13). Nansi imibuzo ongadlinza ngayo njengoba ufunda ngobufakazi beNkosi uBenjamini ngoMsindisi encwadini ka Mosiya 3:1–20:
-
Yikuphi engikufundayo kulamavesi mayelana noMsindisi nokuthunywa Kwakhe na?

Ngabe yikuphi okufundayo encwadini ka Mosiya 3:5–21 mayelana nokuthi uMsindisi uwasebenzisa kanjani lawomandla Akhe na? Usuke wawabona amandla kaMsindisi empilweni yakho nasezimpilweni zalabo abaseduze nawe na? Ngabe ukwazi ukwenzani ngamandla Akhe futhi yikuphi ongaba yikho na? Ngabe impilo yakho ingehluka kanjani ngaphandle kwagesi na?
