Iyayi. Agambe ganichisya ya kamwanache kakakwawutuchila babagwe ni kwakumbatila mwachinonyelo ni kwasalila kuti, “Wawojo ali nangolo jwambone mnope pachilambopa.” Maloŵega gakumtendekasya mtatijo kuŵa jwakusangalala.

Jwalakwe akusasala kuti wosopewe mpaka tumjimuchile Mlungu naga kutenda yeleyo mpaka kutukamuchisye kupata yindu yineyakwe yambone. (Yob. 1:​9-11; 2:4) Pambali jeleji, mundu jwakulupichika Yobu jwalosisye kuti Satana ali jwaunami. Nambi uli pakwamba ya wawojo? Jwalijose jwetuwe akwete ufulu wakusagula kuŵa kumbali ja Mlungu soni kumsangalasya jwalakwe mwakumtumichila mwakulupichika. (Mis. 27:11) Yeleyi ni yatukusosekwa kutendaga.

⁶ Kumnonyela Mlungu kukusikwatendekasya ŵandu ŵakulupichika kuti alichimbichisyeje mnope lina lyakwe. Mwenye Daudi jwalembile kuti, “Mtima ŵangu, wachimbichisye AMBUJE, umi ŵangu wosope uchimbichisye lina lyawo lyaliswela.” (Sal. 103:1) Daudi jwamanyilile kuti kulichimbichisya lina lya Yehofa kuli kumchimbichisya Yehofa msyenejo. Lina lya Yehofa likupwatikapo mbili jakwe, mwamti patupikene linali tukusaganichisya ya ndamo syakwe syambone soni masengo gakwe gakusimonjesya. Daudi ŵaliwonaga lina lya Atati ŵakwe ŵakwinani kuti lili lyeswela soni ŵasakaga kulichimbichisya. Jwalakwe jwasakaga kutenda yeleyi “ni umi wakwe  wosope.” Mwakulandanamo, nombenawo Alefi ŵalongolelaga pakulichimbichisya lina lya Yehofa. Mwakulinandiya, jemanjaji ŵajitichisyaga kuti nganaŵa akombwele kulichimbichisya mwakwanila lina lyeswela lya Yehofa ni maloŵe gawo. (Aŵalanje Nehemiya 9:5.) Kumchimbichisya Yehofa mwakulinandiyaku kwatendekasisye mtima wa Yehofa kuŵa wakusangalala.

7. Ana mpaka tumchimbichisye chamtuli Yehofa patukulalichila soni patukutenda yindu yine lisiku lililyose?

Patukulalichila tukumbuchileje kuti chakulinga chetu chekulungwa chili kwakamuchisya ŵandu kumŵandichila Yehofa soni kuti amwoneje jwalakwe mpela mwatukusamwonela m’weji. (Yak. 4:8) Tukusaŵa ŵakusangalala kwalosya ŵandu yajikusati Baibulo pakumlondesya Yehofa kuti ali jwachinonyelo, jwachilungamo, jwalunda, jwamachili nambosoni kuti akwete ndamo sine syambone syejinji. Tukusamchimbichisya soni kumsangalasya Yehofa mwakulingalinga kumsyasya jwalakwe. (Aef. 5:1) Patukutenda yeleyi ŵane akusayiwona kuti tuli ŵakulekangana mnope ni ŵandu ŵane m’chilambo chakusakalachi. (Mat. 5:​14-16) Patukukunguluka ni jemanjaji mpaka twasalileje ligongo lyakwe tuli ŵakulekangana nawo. Patukutenda yeleyi ŵandu ŵamtima wambone akusatanda kumtumichila Mlungu. Patukumchimbichisya Yehofa m’matala gelega tukusasangalasya mtima wakwe.—1 Tim. 2:​3, 4.

⁸ Pa yindu yosope yalunda yaŵapanganyisye Mlungu Yesupe ni jwakusammanyilila chenene Mlungu. (Mat. 11:27) Yesu jwanonyelaga mnope Atati ŵakwe mwamti jwalakwe jwalongolele pakulichimbichisya lina lya Yehofa. (Yoh. 14:31) Mu lipopelo lyaŵapopesile kwa Atati ŵakwe chilo chakuti malaŵi gakwe chawulajidwe, jwasasile mwakata ya utumiki ŵajwatesile pa chilambo chapasichi. Jwalakwe jwatite, “Une namanyisye jemanjaji lina lyawo.” (Yoh. 17:26) Ana pelepa jwagopolelaga chichi?

9. Ana Yesu jwakamulichisye masengo chamtuli ngani ja mwanache jwamsokonechele pakusaka kutukamuchisya kuti tummanyilile chenene Yehofa?

⁹ Yesu jwatesile yindu yejinji kupunda kwamba kwasalila ŵandu yakuti lina lya Mlungu lili Yehofa. Ayuda ŵaŵajiganyaga Yesu ŵamanyililaga kuti Mlungu akwete lina. Nambo Yesu jwaŵele mundu ‘juŵasasile chenene ya Jwalakwejo.’ (Yoh. 1:​17, 18) Mwamti Malemba ga Chihebeli gakusasala kuti Yehofa ali jwachanasa soni jwachinonyelo. (Eks. 34:​5-7) Yesu jwalosisye chenene yeleyi pakamulichisya masengo ngani jakusala ya mtati ni mwanache jwakwe jwamsokonechele. Munganiji tukusaŵalanga kuti mtatiju ali am’weni mwanache jwakweju “ali chapakutalichila” ŵamwutuchile ni kumkumbatila mwamti ŵamkululuchile ni mtima wosope. Ŵatesile yeleyitu ligongo lyakuti mwanachejo ŵapitikwiche mtima. Nganiji jikusatukamuchisya kumanyilila kuti Yehofa ali jwachanasa soni jwachinonyelo. (Luk. 15:​11-32) Pelepatu Yesu jwakamuchisye ŵandu ŵajinji kupikanichisya mwaŵelele Atati ŵakwe.

10. (a) Ana tukusamanyilila chamtuli kuti Yesu jwakamulichisyaga masengo lina lya Atati ŵakwe soni kuti akusasaka tutendeje yakulandanayo? (Maliko 5:19) (Alole chiwulili.) (b) Ana Yesu akusasaka kuti tutendeje chichi masiku agano?

¹⁰ Ana Yesu jwasakaga kuti ŵandu akamulichisyejesoni masengo lina lya Atati ŵakwe? Elo. Achimlongola ŵane ŵadini pandaŵijo ŵasalaga kuti lina lya Mlungu lili lyakuchimbichikwa mnope mwamti ngakusosekwa kulikolangaga. Nambo Yesu nganakunda kuti misyungu ja ŵandu jakutindana ni Malembaji jimlepelekasye kulichimbichisya lina lya Atati ŵakwe. Aganichisye yayatendekwe pandaŵi jele Yesu ŵamposisye mundu jwine juŵakwete yiŵanda juŵatamaga mu dela ja Agelasa. Ŵandu ŵa m’delaji wakamwile woga mwamti ŵamŵendile Yesu kuti atyoche. (Maliko  5:​16, 17) Nambotu Yesu jwasakaga kuti ŵandu ŵa m’delajo alimanyilile lina lya Yehofa. Myoyo jwamlamwile mundu juŵamposisyejo kuti jwasalileje ŵandu kuti Yehofa ni jwamposisye ngaŵaga Yesu. (Aŵalanje Maliko 5:19.) a Jwalakwe akusasakasoni kuti masiku agano twasalileje ŵane lina lya Atati ŵakweli pachilambo chosope. (Mat. 24:14; 28:​19, 20) Patukutenda yeleyi tukusamsangalasya Mwenye jwetu Yesu.

11. Ana Yesu jwajiganyisye ŵakulijiganya ŵakwe kuti atendeje chichi pakupopela soni ligongo chichi yili yakusosekwa mnope? (Esekiele 36:23)

¹¹ Yesu jwamanyililaga kuti chakulinga cha Yehofa chili kuliswejesya lina lyakwe ku yindu yosope yaunami yakusaŵecheta ŵandu yakwamba linali. Alitu ni ligongo lyakwe Ambuje ŵetu ŵajiganyisye ŵakulijiganya ŵawo kuti apopeleje kuti, “Atati ŵetu ŵakwinani, lina lyawo liŵe lyeswela.” (Mat. 6:​9, Maloŵe gamwiŵanda.) Yesu jwamanyililaga kuti jeleji jili ngani jekulungwa ku yakupanganyikwa yosope. (Aŵalanje Esekiele 36:23.) Pangali chakupanganyikwa chalunda pachilambopa chachikombwele kuliswejesya lina lya Yehofa kupunda muŵatendele Yesu. Ana Yesu ali ataŵidwe achimmagongo ŵakwe ŵamjimbaga magambo gamtuli? Ŵamjimbaga magambo gakuti ali jwakunyosya Mlungu. Nambo Yesu jwamanyililaga kuti kukamulichisya masengo mwakulemwechekwa soni kuŵecheta yakusakala yakwamba Atati ŵakwe uli ulemwa wekulungwa mnope. Mwamti jwalakwe yampweteche mnope paŵamanyilile kuti akumjimba magambo gakunyosya lina lya Mlungu. Lyeleli ni ligongo lyekulungwa lyalyamtendekasisye Yesu ‘kulagasika mnope mu mtima’ pandaŵi jaŵamjimbaga magambo kuti amtaŵe.—Luk. 22:​41-44.

12. Ana Yesu jwaswejesye chamtuli lina lya Atati ŵakwe pandaŵi jakusawusya mnope?

¹² Kuti akombole kuswejesya lina lya Atati ŵakwe, Yesu jwasosekwaga kupilila yindu yaunami yiŵamlambuchisyaga soni yakusawusya yaŵasimanaga nayo. Jwalakwe jwamanyilile kuti jwapikanile Atati ŵakwe mu yindu yosope mwamti pangali chindu chakatesile nacho sooni. (Aheb. 12:2) Yesu jwamanyililagasoni kuti Satana ni jwakulimbana najo mundaŵi jakusawusyajo. (Luk. 22:​2-4; 23:​33, 34) Kusala yisyene, Satana jwasakaga kuti Yesu akaŵa jwakulupichika kwa Mlungu. nambotu jwalakwe jwalepele mwakutesya chanasa. Mwamti Yesu jwalosisye kuti Satana ali jwaunami nambosoni kuti Yehofa akwete ŵakutumichila ŵakwe ŵakulupichika. Jemanjaji  akusaŵaga ŵakulupichika atamose pasimene ni yakuligwa yekulungwa mnope.

Yili myoyo ligongo lyakuti Satana ‘asiŵile nganisyo sya ŵandu ŵangakulupilila.’ (2 Akoli. 4:4) Yakuyichisya yakwe ŵandu ŵeleŵa akusatanda kukulupilila mabosa ga Satana. Mabosa gakwe gali gakuti, kwangali Mlungu, Mlungu ali kwakutalichila, Mlungu jwangasamala ya ŵandu, Mlungu ali jwangasa nambosoni Mlungu akusiŵalagasya kwangamala ŵandu ŵakutenda yakusakala.

(Yes. 40:26) Jemanjaji akusaŵa ŵakusimichisya kuti Mlungu ali jwachilungamo. (Det. 32:4) Akusasimongasoni ni lunda lwangali malile lwakwete jwalakwe. (Yes. 55:9; Alo. 11:33) Yikusiyalimbikasyasoni pakumanyilila kuti Yehofa akusiŵanonyela jemanjaji pajikapajika. (1 Yoh. 4:8) Pakumŵandichila mnope Yehofa, chembecheyo chawo chakutama ni umi wangamala chikusaŵa chisyesyene. Kusala  yisyene uli upile wetu wekulungwa kwakamuchisya ŵandu kuti ŵaŵandichile Atati ŵetu. Patukutenda yeleyi Yehofa chachituwona kuŵa ‘ŵamasengo achimjakwe.’—1 Akoli. 3:​5, 9.

Mwamti jwasimonjile mnope paŵalijiganyisye kuti lina lya Mlungu ŵalityosisye m’ma Baibulo gane nikuŵika mena ga udindo mpela Ambuje. Kumanyilila kuti lina lya Mlungu lili Yehofa kwamkamuchisye jwalakwe paumi wakwe. Jwalakwe jwatite, “Mjangu jusyesyene akwete lina.” Ana yakuyichisya yakwe yaliji yamtuli? Msikanaju jwatite, “Sambano ngwete mtendele wa mumtima soni mbatile yindu yambone.” Aganichisyesoni ya jwamlume jwine lina lyakwe Steve juŵaliji jwakwimba nyimbo. Jwalakwe jwatyochelaga ku liŵasa lya Chiyuda soni nganakundaga kuchenga yaŵakulupililaga. Jwamlumeju nganasakaga kuŵa mu dini jilijose ligongo lya yindu yachinyengo yaŵayiwonaga.

Jwalakwe jwatite, “Nalijiganyisye yakuti Mlungu akwete lina. Mwamti kwandaŵi jandanda napikanichisye kuti Mlungu ali jusyesyene. Nayiweni kuti jwalakwe ali jusyesyene, soni nayimanyi kuti mbatile mjangu jwambone mnope.”
