2 Muze Paulu azachishile chilweza chacho, iye kota kanyongene ha uzalo wa maswalale A-Roma. (Yilinga 28:16) Ha mutwe uno, mutuhengwolaho chilweza chacho chipema.

5 Amu twakulemesa umwenemwene wa Liji lia Zambi, kashika twakwononokena yize Mbimbiliya yakwamba ni kuhanjika umwenemwene mashimbu eswe. Mahuza kapwa umwe uta wambwende wa Satana. Mahuza kakupihisa lufuma wa yoze wakwaanjika ni yoze wakwaafuliela. (Yoano 8:44) Chipwe ngwe tuli yihenge, nihindu twakusa tachi hanga tweche kuhanjika mahuza. (A-Efwesu 4:25) Chino muchihasa kupwa chikalu. Abigail yoze uli ni miaka 18, yamba ngwenyi: “Kuhanjika umwenemwene ha mashimbu amwe chakupwa ngwe kuchishi ulemu, chipi-chipi nyi mutu mafupa kuhanjika mahuza hanga ehuke umwe mulonga.” Mba mumu liaka iye akusa tachi hanga ahanjike umwenemwene mashimbu eswe? Yamba ngwenyi: “Muze nakuhanjika umwenemwene nakupwa ni mbunge yitoma kumeso ja Yehova. Nawa yisemi ni masepa jami kananyingika ngwo mahasa kungujikijila.” Victoria, yoze uli ni miaka 23 yamba ngwenyi: “Nyi muhanjika umwenemwene ni kukalila yize wafuliela, akwenu mahasa kukukekuna. Alioze muyuka yiwape yipema: Makujikijila kuli akwenu, mupwa ni usepa upema ni Yehova, nawa makuvumbika kuli atu waze akukuzanga.” Shina wamona ulemu wa kuzala “muya wa umwenemwene” mashimbu eswe?

Chizechene nawa, kutuchi keza kasumbakenya shimbi ja Yehova ja ululi ni manyonga jetu a uhenge hakutwala ku yize yalita. Yetwene kutuchi kuhasa kufunga kanawa mbunge yetu, mumu mana jetu akehe.

Bo, yoze uli ni miaka 20, yamba ngwenyi: “Te nakwivwa woma wa kwambujola kuli alongi-ni-akwetu ku shikola. Kota napwile ni kwivwa sonyi. Kashika ni natala kunyima, kuchakapwile ni kumona yize ngulinga. Haliapwila, ngunawahilila ha kwambujola kuli akwetu waze nakupwa no.”

Kashika nakusa tachi hanga ngutange yikuma yeswe yize akutuhwishila akweze. Chino chakungukwasa kusolwela waze nalilongesa no yimwe mu Mbimbiliya hanji ha jw.org hanga yaakwase.” Kulilulieka kanawa ha kwambujola chapwa ngwe tunazale “sapato” jize jinatute kanawa.

“LUKEPWE WA UFULIELO”
12, 13. ‘Mivi yika yimwe ya kahia’ yize Satana akuzachisa?
12 Tanga A-Efwesu 6:16. Swalale Ka-Roma kapwile ni kumbata lukepwe yoze te ukwete mambango awana. Lukepwe wacho te kakufuka swalale kukatuka ku yipaya ndo ha makungunwa ni kumufunga ku tutana, kunga ni mivi.
13 ‘Mivi yika ya kahia’ yize Satana mahasa kukwasa? Iye mahasa kulimika ni yena hakuhanjika mahuza hakutwala kuli Yehova. Satana kanazange hanga unyonge ngwe Yehova keshi kukuzanga nawa kukushi niumwe yoze wakulipikala ni yena. Ida, yoze uli ni miaka 19, yamba ngwenyi: “Kanji-kanji te nakwivwa ngwe Yehova keshi hakamwihi ni yami nawa keshi kuzanga kupwa Sepa liami.” Yika Ida, akulinga muze mevwa chocho? Yamba ngwenyi: “Kukunguluka chakungukwasa chinji kukolesa ufulielo wami. Napwile ni kuyako alioze te kuchishi kukumbulula, mumu te nakunyonga ngwami kukushi niumwe yoze mapanjika kumbululo liami. Haliapwila, nakululieka kukunguluka nawa nakusa tachi hanga ngukumbulule kaali hanji katatu. Chakupwa chikalu, alioze nakwivwa kuwaha nyi nakumbulula. Nawa mandumbu kakungukolweza chinji. Chochene, kukunguluka chakungukwasa kunyingika ngwami Yehova kakunguzanga chinji.”

‘CHIFULU CHA ULAMWINO’
15, 16. Kuchi kutalatala chetu chinalifa ni chifulu?

16 Ngwe chize chifulu chakufunga wongo wa swalale, “kutalatala chetu cha ulamwino” chakutufunga ku manyonga api. (1 A-Tesalonika 5:8; Yishima 3:21) Kutalatala chakutukwasa hanga tulihulikile ha yilakenyo ya Zambi ni kuhona kuzeya muze mutupalika mu yipikalo. (Samu 27:1, 14; Yilinga 24:15) Alioze nyi tunazange hanga kutalatala chetu chitufunge, chatamba kupwa chuma chilemu ku mwono wetu. Kashika twatamba kuzala ‘chifulu’ chetu ku mutwe, kutwatambile kuchimbata ku kwoko!
17, 18. (a) Kuchi Satana mahasa kutwonga ni kutuzula chifulu ku mutwe? (b) Kuchi mutuhasa kusolola ngwetu Satana keshi kutwonga?
17 Kuchi Satana mahasa kutwonga ni kutuzula chifulu ku mutwe? Tuchinyongenu ha yize iye afupile kulinga hali Yesu. Satana kanyingikine ngwenyi Yesu te mapwa mwanangana wa atu. Chipwe chocho, chitangu Yesu te mamona lamba ni kufwa. Nawa iye te mashimbwila mba amupwise Mwanangana ha shimbu lize Yehova te hanatese. Alioze Satana yamwaha uhashi wakuyula ha mashimbu waze-ene. Satana yamba ngwenyi nyi Yesu te malinga chimwe hanga amuwayile, hazehene iye te mapwa mwanangana wa hashi. (Luka 4:5-7) Satana nawa kananyingika ngwenyi Yehova hanalakenya kutwaha yuma yipema mu paraisu. Alioze twatamba kushimbwila chilakenyo chacho hanga chimanunuke, muze shimbu liacho kanda lichiheta mutuhasa kupwa ni yipikalo yinji. Chocho Satana matwaha uhashi wa kupwa ni mwono upema haliapwila. Iye kanazange hanga tuse kulutwe yuma yize twakuzanga ha kusa Mwanangana wa Zambi ha chihela chamuchiali.—Mateu 6:31-33.
18 Akweze anji akwa-Kristu Satana keshi kuhasa kwonga. Chakutalilaho, Kiana, yoze uli ni miaka 20, yamba ngwenyi: “Ngunanyingika ngwami Wanangana wa Zambi che kutalatala chimuwika chize muchikahwisa lamba lietu lieswe.” Kuchi kutalatala chenyi chakumukwasa ha chize akunyonga ni ha chize akumbata mwono wenyi? Chakumukwasa kwiwuluka ngwenyi yuma ya hano hashi yili ya mashimbu akehe. Shimbu ase tachi hanga afupe lufuma wa hano hashi, Kiana kakuzachisa mashimbu ni tachi jenyi hanga alingile Yehova.

(2 A-Korindu 10:4, 5; 2 Timoteu 2:15) Mba kuchi muhasa kululieka utotombo we? Sebastian, yoze uli ni miaka 21, yamba ngwenyi: “Nakusoneka versu ya hita kapitulu yoze mungutanga mu Mbimbiliya. Nakulinga katalilo wa versu jize nakuzanga chinji.” Chino chakumukwasa hanga anyingike kanawa chize Yehova akunyonga. Daniel yawezela ngwenyi: “Muze nakutanga Mbimbiliya, nakusakula versu jize ngunanyingika ngwami mujikwasa atu waze nakuwana mu munda. Hi namona ngwami atu kakutayiza sango lipema muze mamona ngwo yena wa kuzanga Mbimbiliya nawa wa kuyizachisa kanawa hanga waakwase.”

Tunanyingika ngwetu ayo kakwete ndundo, alioze keshi ni ndundo jinji kuhiana Yehova. Nawa ayo kechi katambula mwono wa mutolo. Makaasa mu kamenga, ha Miaka Kanunu ya Kuyula cha Kristu ayo kechi kalinga upi niumwe hali atu, hi kusongo makwonona liakulu. (Usolwelo 20:1-3, 7-10) Hachino, hitwanyingika kanawa mukwa-kole wetu, yitaka yenyi ni manyonga jenyi. Ni ukwaso wa Yehova, mutuhasa kumana ngu ni kumukumba!
