(1 Akor. 12:13; Agal. 3:27; Chiv. 20:6) Choncho ubatizo umenewu, wobatizidwa ndi mzimu woyera, ndi umene Yehova anabatiza nawo anthu pa tsiku la Pentekosite komanso pambuyo pake, posankha anthu oti akhale olowa m’nyumba anzake a Khristu. (Aroma 8:15-17) Nanga bwanji za anthu amene amabatizidwa m’madzi m’dzina la mzimu woyera pamisonkhano ikuluikulu ya anthu a Yehova masiku ano?

6. Perekani chitsanzo chosonyeza zimene tiyenera kuchita n’cholinga choti tikhale ndi zipatso za mzimu.

⁶ Mzimu woyera ukamagwira ntchito pa inu, mumasonyeza makhalidwe abwino omwe ndi “zipatso za mzimu.” (Agal. 5:22, 23) Koma mukudziwanso kuti mufunika kuchita khama kuti izi zitheke. Mwachitsanzo, taganizirani za mlimi amene wakonza munda wake. Popanda kuwala kwa dzuwa ndiponso madzi iye sangakolole chilichonse. Tingayerekezere mzimu woyera ndi kuwala kwa dzuwa.

(Mat. 24:45-47) Apa n’zoonekeratu kuti mzimu woyera ungatitsogolere pokhapokha ngati tiwerenga Mawu a Mulungu ndi kusinkhasinkha. Ngati mumachita zimenezi, ndiye kuti mukutengera chitsanzo cha aneneri amene ‘anafufuza mwakhama ndi mosamala’ mfundo zimene Mulungu anapereka.

8. N’chifukwa chiyani mufunika kupempha Yehova kuti akupatseni mzimu wake?

Iye “angathe kuchita zazikulu kwambiri kuposa zonse zimene timapempha kapena kuganiza.” (Aef. 3:20; Luka 11:13) Koma kodi inuyo mungayankhe bwanji wina atakufunsani kuti, “n’chifukwa chiyani ndiyenera kumupempha Mulungu, popeza iye amadziwa ‘zimene ndikufuna ndisanamupemphe n’komwe?’” (Mat. 6:8) Chifukwa china n’chakuti tikamapempha mzimu woyera timasonyeza kuti timadalira Yehova. Mwachitsanzo, munthu wina akakupemphani kanthu mumachita zonse zimene mungathe kuti mum’thandize. Mumachita zimenezo podziwa kuti munthuyo wakupemphani zimenezo chifukwa chokudalirani.

9. Kodi kupezeka pamisonkhano kungakuthandizeni bwanji kuti muzitsogoleredwa ndi mzimu wa Mulungu?

⁹ Monga mukudziwira, mzimu wa Mulungu umatitsogoleranso kudzera m’misonkhano yampingo ndiponso misonkhano ikuluikulu. Kuyesetsa kupezeka pamisonkhano imeneyi ndiponso kumvetsera mwatcheru, n’kofunika kwambiri. Kuchita zimenezi kumakuthandizani kumvetsa “zinthu zozama za Mulungu.” (1 Akor. 2:10) Chinthu china chimene chingatithandize, ndi kuyesetsa kuyankha pamisonkhano. Taganizirani za misonkhano imene munapezekapo milungu inayi yapitayi. Kodi n’kangati pamene munakweza dzanja lanu kuti muyankhe posonyeza chikhulupiriro chanu? Kodi pali zinthu zina zimene mukuona kuti  mufunika kusintha kuti muzichita bwino pambali imeneyi? Ngati zilipo, ganizirani zimene mungachite milungu ikubwerayi.

¹⁰ Kuyenda mwa mzimu kumaphatikizaponso kuvomera zimene zalembedwa pa Chivumbulutso 22:17. Lembali limati: “Mzimu ndi mkwatibwi akunenabe kuti: “Bwera!” Aliyense wakumva anene kuti: “Bwera!” Aliyense wakumva ludzu abwere. Aliyense amene akufuna, amwe madzi a moyo kwaulere.” Mzimu woyera umene ukugwira ntchito kudzera mwa Akhristu odzozedwa, kapena kuti mkwatibwi, ukuitana anthu kuti adzamwe madzi amoyo. Ngati mwavomera poitanidwa kuti “bwera,” kodi nanunso mukufunitsitsa kuuza ena kuti “Bwera!”? Ndi mwayi wamtengo wapatali kugwira nawo ntchito imeneyi yopulumutsa miyoyo.

11, 12. Kodi mzimu woyera ukuthandiza bwanji pa ntchito yolalikira?

¹¹ Ntchito yofunika kwambiri imeneyi ikugwiridwa motsogoleredwa ndi mzimu woyera. Timawerenga mmene mzimu woyera unathandizira amishonale kulalikira m’madera atsopano m’nthawi ya atumwi. ‘Mzimu woyera unaletsa Paulo ndi anzake kulankhula mawu opatulika m’chigawo cha Asiya.’ Iwo sanaloledwenso kupita ku Bituniya. Sitikudziwa mmene mzimuwo unawaletsera kupita kumadera amenewa, koma chomwe tikudziwa n’chakuti mzimuwo unatsogolera Paulo kupita kumadera ambiri a ku Ulaya. Iye anaona m’masomphenya munthu wina wa ku Makedoniya akumupempha kuti akawathandize.​—Mac. 16:6-10.

¹² Masiku ano, mzimu wa Yehova ukutsogoleranso anthu pa ntchito yolalikira ya padziko lonse. Izi sizichitika mwa masomphenya, koma Yehova amatsogolera odzozedwa kudzera mwa mzimu woyera. Ndipo mzimu woyera umalimbikitsa abale ndi alongo kuchita zonse zimene angathe pa ntchito yolalikira ndi kuphunzitsa. N’zosachita kufunsa kuti inunso mukugwira nawo ntchito imeneyi. Kodi mungatani kuti muzisangalala kwambiri ndi ntchito yosangalatsa imeneyi?

13. Kodi mungatani kuti mzimu woyera uzikutsogolerani? Perekani chitsanzo.

¹³ Mungatsatire malangizo a mzimu woyera mwa kugwiritsa ntchito zimene anthu a Mulungu amaphunzitsidwa. Taganizirani zimene zinachitikira mtsikana wa ku Japan dzina lake Mihoko. Atangoyamba kumene upainiya, ankaona kuti sangathe kuchita maulendo obwereza. Iye ankaona kuti sangathe kukopa chidwi cha anthu amene akulankhula nawo. Koma panthawi imeneyi, Utumiki Wathu wa Ufumu unapereka malangizo okhudza mmene tingachitire maulendo obwereza achidule. Ndiye panatulukanso kabuku kakuti Mmene Mungapezere Moyo Wokhutiritsa. Kabuku kameneka kanali kothandiza kwambiri makamaka kwa anthu a ku Japan. Mihoko anagwiritsa ntchito malangizo a mmene angagwiritsire ntchito kabukuka makamaka popanga maulendo obwereza achidule. Pasanapite nthawi anayamba kuphunzira Baibulo ndi anthu amene poyamba, sakanalola kuphunzira. Iye anati: “Ndinali ndi maphunziro okwana 12 moti ena ankafunika kudikira kaye ndisanayambe kuphunzira nawo.” Zoonadi, ngati mukuyenda mwa mzimu ndiponso kugwiritsa ntchito malangizo amene Yehova amapereka kwa atumiki ake, mudzapindula kwambiri.

14, 15. (a) N’chiyani chingathandize anthu opanda ungwiro kukwaniritsa kudzipereka kwawo? (b) Kodi mungatani kuti mukhale ndi mabwenzi abwino?

Koma mofanana ndi odzozedwa, Mulungu ndi amene amakuchititsani kukhala oyenerera. (Werengani 2 Akorinto 3:5.) Mukhoza kukwaniritsa kudzipereka kwanu mwa kuchita khama ndiponso kudalira mzimu wa Mulungu.

¹⁵ N’zoona kuti n’zovuta kwa anthu opanda ungwirofe kukwaniritsa kudzipereka kwathu kwa Yehova Mulungu, yemwe ndi wangwiro. Vuto lina ndi lakuti anthu amene tinkacheza nawo poyamba sangasangalale ndi zimene tikuchita panopa ndipo ‘angamatinyoze.’ (1 Pet. 4:4) Koma musaiwale kuti panopa muli ndi mabwenzi ambiri kuphatikizapo Yehova ndi Yesu Khristu omwe ndi mabwenzi amtengo wapatali kwambiri. (Werengani Yakobe 2:21-23.) Ndiponso mufunika kumadziwa abale ndi alongo a mumpingo mwanu. Abale ndi alongo amenewa ali ‘m’gulu lonse la abale’ a padziko lonse. (1 Pet. 2:17; Miy. 17:17) Yehova adzakuthandizani kudzera mwa mzimu wake, kuti mukhale ndi mabwenzi amene nthawi zonse adzakuthandizani kuti muzichita zoyenera.

16. N’chifukwa chiyani tinganene kuti ‘mungamasangalale ndi kufooka’ ngati mmene Paulo anachitira?

¹⁶ Ngakhale mutakhala ndi mabwenzi ambiri mumpingo, zikhoza kukhalabe zovuta kuti mupirire mavuto ena. Nthawi zina chifukwa cha mavuto, mungamve ngati muli m’dzenje lomwe simungathe kutulukamo. Nthawi imeneyi ndi imene muyenera kupemphera kwa Yehova kuti akupatseni mzimu wake woyera. Mtumwi Paulo analemba kuti: “Pamene ndili wofooka, m’pamene ndili wamphamvu.” (Werengani 2 Akorinto 4:7-10; 12:10.) Paulo ankadziwa kuti mzimu wa Mulungu ungathandize pa vuto lina lililonse limene munthu angakhale nalo. Mzimu woyera wa Mulungu ungakulimbitseni pamene mwafooka ndiponso pamene mukufunikira thandizo. Paulo analemba kuti: “Ndimasangalala ndi kufooka.” Iye ankaona kuti akafooka, mzimu woyera unkamuthandiza. Zimenezi zingachitikenso kwa inu.​—Aroma 15:13.

17. Kodi mzimu woyera ungakuthandizeni bwanji kukwaniritsa cholinga chanu?

¹⁷ Kuti tikwaniritse kudzipereka kwathu kwa Mulungu, timafunika mzimu wake. Tiyerekeze kuti inuyo muli ndi boti loyendera mphepo. Chofunika ndi kudziwa mphepo imene ingakufikitseni kumene mukupita n’kulola kuti ikutsogolereni. Cholinga chanu ndi kutumikira Yehova kosatha. Mzimu woyera uli ngati mphepo imene ingakakufikitseni bwinobwino kumene mukupita. Simungafune kuti muzingotengekera uku ndi uko ndi mzimu wa dziko la Satanali. (1 Akor. 2:12). Mzimu woyera ungakutsogolereni bwino kudzera m’Mawu a Mulungu ndiponso gulu lake lotsogoleredwa ndi mzimuwo.

18. Kodi muyenera kuyesetsa kuchita chiyani, ndipo n’chifukwa chiyani?

¹⁸ Ngati mwakhala mukuphunzira ndi Mboni za Yehova ndiponso kusonkhana nazo koma simunadziperekebe n’kubatizidwa, dzifunseni kuti, ‘kodi chikundilepheretsa n’chiyani?’ Ngati mwazindikira ntchito ya mzimu woyera pokwaniritsa cholinga cha Yehova masiku ano, ndiponso mmene umagwirira ntchito, chitani zimene mwaphunzira kuti n’zoyenera kuchita. Yehova adzakudalitsani kwambiri. Iye adzakupatsani mzimu wake woyera mowolowa manja. Ngati munabatizidwa kalekale, muyenera kuti mwaona mzimu woyera ukukuthandizani. Mwaonanso Mulungu akukulimbikitsani pogwiritsa ntchito mzimu wake. Iye angapitirizebe kuchita zimenezi mpaka kalekale. Motero, yesetsani kuyendabe mwa mzimu woyera.
