2 Njira inatilekerera Yahova ndi yakusiyana kakamwe na njira inalekerera ife andzathu. Nkhabepo anakwanisa kulekerera munthu ninga munalekerera Yahova. Nyamasalmo alonga tenepa thangwi ya Yahova: “Kulekerera kwandimomwene kuli na imwe, toera anthu akulemedzeni.” a (Mas. 130:4) Undimomwene ndi wakuti kulekerera kwa Yahova ndi “kulekerera kwandimomwene.” Thangwi ndiye basi anadziwa mabvekero akulekerera.

YAHOVA ASALEKERERA MADAWO
5. Ninji pinacitika Yahova angatilekerera madawo athu?
5 M’Bhibhlya, madawo kazinji kene asalandaniswa na ntolo wakulemera. Mambo Dhavidhi alonga thangwi ya madawo ace kuti: “Madodo anga anjipa mpaka padzulu pa nsolo wanga; ninga ntolo wakulemera, ine ndisacimwana kuathukula thangwi ndi mazinji kakamwe.” (Mas. 38:4) Mbwenye Yahova asalekerera madawo a munthu anatcunyuka. (Mas. 25:18; 32:5) Fala Yacihebheri idathumburuzwa “kulekerera” isabveka “kulamuka” peno “kuthukula.” Natenepa Yahova angatilekerera madawo athu, pisakhala ninga abulusa m’mapewa mwathu ntolo wakulemera kakamwe wa madawo mbaenda nawo kutali kakamwe.

6 Bhibhlya isaphatisira citsandzo cinango toera kupangiza kuti Yahova asakwata madawo athu mbaenda nawo kutali kakamwe.

M’mafala anango, Yahova asakwata madawo athu mbaenda nawo kutali kakamwe kwakuti ife cipo tinaaona pontho.

7 Ngakhale kuti Yahova asakwata madawo athu mbaenda nawo kutali kakamwe, pisabveka kuti iye asakoya madawo anewa? Nkhabe. Mambo Ezekiya alonga: ‘Imwe mwaponya nduli mwanu madawo anga onsene.’ Peno ninga pinalonga cidzindikiro capantsi kuti: “Mwabulusa madawo anga onsene pamaso panu.” (Iza. 38:9, 17; cidzindikiro capantsi) Pyenepi pisapangiza kuti Yahova asakwata madawo a anthu akutcunyuka mbaasiya kutali kakamwe, pontho iye nee asaakumbukabve. Mafala adalonga Ezekiya anakwanisa kuthumburuzwa tenepa: “Imwe mwacitisa kuti pikhale ninga nee ndikhadacita madawo.” Bhibhlya isagomezera pontho ntsonga ineyi m’mafala anagumanika pa Mikeya 7:18, 19. (Lerini.) Mavesi anewa asalonga kuti Yahova asaponya madawo athu m’bara yakuzika kakamwe. Mu ndzidzi wakale, cinthu cingagwa m’bara yakuzika kakamwe, pikhali pyakunentsa toera kucigumana.

Pisakhala ninga pidalonga Dhavidhi kuti: “Anyakutsandzaya ndi ale adalekererwa macitiro awo akuipa, na ale akuti madawo awo afudzwa; anyakutsandzaya ndi ale akuti Yahova cipo anadzakumbuka pontho madawo awo.” (Aroma 4:7, 8) Kweneku ndi kulekerera kwandimomwene!
YAHOVA ASAFUDZA MADAWO ATHU
9. Bhibhlya isaphatisira citsandzo cipi toera kutiphedza kubvesesa kuti Yahova asatilekerera na ntima onsene?
9 Yahova aphatisira citsandzo cinango toera kutiphedza kuona kufunika kwa ntsembe ya ciomboli. Iye asatsuka na kufudza madawo a munthu wakutcunyuka. Bhibhlya isalonga kuti pisakhala ninga Yahova asafula mbatsuka madawo. Pyenepi pisacitisa kuti nyakudawa akhale pontho wakucena. (Mas. 51:7; Iza. 4:4; Yer. 33:8) Pontho Yahova afokotoza kuti asacita tani pyenepi pa Izaiya 1:18: ‘Maseze madawo anu akhale akufira, iwo anadzacena kakamwe ninga neve; maseze akhale akufira kakamwe, iwo anadzacena kakamwe ninga thonje.’ Ndi pyakunentsa kakamwe toera kumalisa midonthi yakufira ingagwa pa nguwo. Ndi thangwi yace Yahova aphatisira citsandzo ceneci toera kupangiza kuti madawo athu anakwanisa kukhala akucena kakamwe ninga kuti nee akhalipo.

10 Ninga pidapfundza ife mu nsolo udamala, madawo athu asalandaniswa na “mangawa.” (Mat. 6:12; Luka 11:4) Natenepa, ndzidzi onsene unadawira ife Yahova pisakhala ninga tiri kuthimizira mangawa athu. Mangawa ali na ife ndi mazinji kakamwe! Mbwenye Yahova angatilekerera madawo athu, pisakhala ninga atilekerera mangawa anewa. Iye nee asaphemba kulipwa thangwi ya madawo adamala iye kutilekerera.

11 Yahova asacita pizinji kupiringana kutilekerera mangawa peno madawo athu. Iye asaafudza kwenda na kwenda. (Lerini Mabasa 3:19.) Mangawa angalekererwa, ife tinakwanisa kunyerezera X wankulu kakamwe adalembwa padzulu pa tsamba idalembwa mangawa anewa. Mbwenye numero ya ntengo wa mangawa isapitiriza kuoneka. Natenepa kufudza cinthu ndi pyakusiyana kakamwe na kulemba X. Toera kubvesesa pyenepi, ife tisafunika kukumbuka kuti mu ndzidzi wakale tinta ikhaphatisirwa ikhali yakukhonda nentsa kufudzika. Munthu mbadakwanisa kukwata esponja yakutota mbafudza pinthu pidalembwa na tinta ineyi. Munjira ibodzi ene, mangawa angafudzwa iwo nee asaonekabve. Pisakhala ninga pa tsamba ineyi nee pakhadalembwa pinthu. Kudziwa kuti Yahova nee asalekerera basi ene madawo athu, mbwenye iye asaafudza mbakhonda kuonekabve, pyenepi pisakhuya kakamwe ntima wathu!—Mas. 51:9.

Lemba ineyi isalonga: “Ine ndinadzafudza madawo ako mbakhala ninga aphimbirwa na khole, pontho madawo ako anadzakhala ninga aphimbirwa na khole yakupswipa kakamwe.” Yahova angatilekerera, pisakhala ninga aphatisira khole ikulu kakamwe mbaphimbira madawo athu toera ife na anthu anango ticimwane kuaona.
13. Tisapibva tani Yahova angatilekerera madawo athu?

Kubulukira mu ntsembe ya Yezu Kristu, ife talekererwa mangawa athu. Yahova angatilekerera madawo athu pisakhala ninga cipo tacita madawo. Tingatcunyuka madawo athu na ntima onsene, Yahova asatilekerera.
YAHOVA ASATITAWIRISA KUKHALA PONTHO AXAMWALI ACE

Yahova apanga mprofeta Yeremiya tenepa: “Thangwi ine ndinadzalekerera madodo awo, pontho nee ndinadzakumbukabve madawo awo.” (Yer. 31:34) Mpostolo Paulu aphatisira mafala akulandana na anewa mu ndzidzi udalonga iye kuti: “Nee ndinadzakumbukabve madawo awo.” (Aheb. 8:12) Kodi mafala anewa asabvekanji?
15. Ndi munjira ipi Yahova nee asakumbukabve madawo athu?
15 M’Bhibhlya, fala yakuti “kukumbuka” nee isabveka basi ene kukumbuka pinthu pidacitika nduli. Mbwenye isabvekambo kupanga munthu toera acite pinthu. Phanga adakhomerwa pamuti dhuzi na Yezu aphemba: “Yezu, ndikumbukireni mungapita mu Umambo wanu.” (Luka 23:42, 43) Mamuna unoyu nee akhaphemba basi ene toera Yezu ankumbuke.

Natenepa, Yahova angalonga kuti nee anakumbukabve madawo athu, pyenepi pisabveka kuti iye atilekerera madawo athu, pontho nee anatitcunyusabve ntsogolo thangwi ya madawo anewa.
