1. (a) Ndi cidikhiro cipi cinatipasa Yahova? (b) ‘Kudikhira Yahova’ kusabvekanji? (Onani “Mabvekero a Mafala Anango.”)

 YAHOVA asapereka cidikhiro cakutsandzayisa kakamwe kuna onsene anafuna iye. Mwakukhonda dembuka, iye anadzamalisa kutsukwala, kuduwala na kufa. (Apok. 21:3, 4) Kusiyapo pyenepi, iye anadzaphedza ‘anthu akukhurudzika’ ananyindira kuti Yahova anadzacinja dziko yapantsi kudza paraizu. (Masal. 37:9-11) Iye anadzacita pyenepi toera m’bodzi na m’bodzi wa ife akwanise kukhala na uxamwali wakuwanga kakamwe na iye kupiringana uli na ife lero. Mwandimomwene ceneci ndi cidikhiro cakutsandzayisa kakamwe. Mphapo ninji cinatipasa cinyindiro cakuti mapikiro a Mulungu anadzakwanirisika? Ndi thangwi yakuti ndzidzi onsene Yahova asacita pinalonga iye. Natenepa, ife tiri na mathangwi adidi toera ‘kudikhira Yahova.’ * (Masal. 27:14) Ife tinapangiza kuti tisadikhira Yahova tingadikhira mwakupirira na mwakutsandzaya kuti Mulungu anadzakwanirisa mapikiro ace.—Iza. 55:10, 11.

Lero, nsoka unoyu wakupambulika usadziwika ninga “mwinji ukulu.” (Apok. 7:9, 10) Maseze amuna, akazi na ana anacita khundu ya nsoka unoyu ndi a pa dziko yonsene yapantsi na a pilongero pyonsene, iwo asakhala mu ntendere na mwakubverana. (Masal. 133:1; Juwau 10:16) Anthu anewa anacita khundu ya mwinji ukulu asamwazambo mphangwa mwaphinga. Ndzidzi onsene iwo ali dzololo toera kulonga kuna ale anaabvesera pya cidikhiro cawo cakukhala mu dziko yadidi kakamwe. (Mat. 28:19, 20; Apok. 14:6, 7; 22:17) Khala imwe musacita khundu ya mwinji ukulu, mwakukhonda penula cidikhiro ceneci ca pinthu pyadidi kakamwe ndi cakufunika kakamwe kuna imwe.

3. Ninji pinafuna Sathani?

(Yobe 1:1-5) Mbwenye pa ntsiku ibodzi basi, Yobe aluza pinthu pyace pyonsene. Cakutoma, iye aluza pifuyo pyace. (Yobe 1:13-17) Buluka penepo, iye aferwa na anace onsene. Mwakukhonda penula, pyenepi pikhali pyakutsukwalisa kakamwe. Anyakubala asatsukwala kakamwe angaferwa na m’bodzi wa anawo. Natenepa, nyerezerani kutsukwala kudakhala na Yobe na nkazace pidabva iwo mphangwa zakuti anawo khumi afa. Na thangwi ineyi, Yobe apandula nguwo zace mbagwa pantsi!—Yobe 1:18-20.

6 Buluka penepo, Sathani acitisa Yobe kukhala na utenda wakugopswa kakamwe na wakupasa manyadzo. (Yobe 2:6-8; 7:5) Mbwenye mbadzati kugwerwa na nyatwa ineyi, anthu azinji akhalemedza Yobe, pontho iwo akhaenda kuna iye toera kaphemba uphungu. (Yobe 31:18) Mbwenye mu ndzidzi udagwerwa iye na nyatwa, iwo akhancalira. Iye akhacalirwa na abale ace, axamwali ace apantima, kuphatanizambo anyabasa ace.—Yobe 19:13, 14, 16.

7. (a) Ndi pinthu pipi pidanyerezera Yobe thangwi ya nyatwa zikhathimbana na iye, mbwenye ndi pinthu pipi pidakhonda iye kucita? (b) Ndi mayesero api akuti panango Nkristu anathimbana nawo akulandana na pinaona ife pa foto?

7 Sathani akhafuna kuti Yobe akhulupire kuti Yahova akhadaipirwa na iye. Mwacitsandzo, Sathani aphatisira mphepo yamphambvu toera kufudza nyumba ikhali ana khumi a Yobe mu ndzidzi ukhacita iwo phwando.

(Yobe 1:16) Nakuti Sathani aphatisira mphepo na moto buluka kudzulu, Yobe anyerezera kuti pyenepi pyabuluka kuna Yahova. Na thangwi ineyi, Yobe akhakhulupira kuti akhadatsukwalisa kakamwe Yahova. Ngakhale tenepo, Yobe nee atikana Babace wakudzulu. Yobe akhadziwa kuti mu pyaka pizinji Yahova akhadampasa nkhombo zizinji kakamwe. Natenepa iye aona kuti khala iye akhatawira pinthu pyadidi, akhafunikambo kutawira pinthu pyakuipa. Na thangwi ineyi iye alonga: ‘Dzina ya Yahova mbipitirize kusimbwa.’ (Yobe 1:20, 21; 2:10) Mafala anewa asapangiza kuti maseze Yobe aluza mpfuma yace, aferwa na anace, pontho aphatwa na utenda, iye apitiriza kukhala wakukhulupirika kuna Yahova. Mbwenye buluka penepo Sathani amuyesera munjira zinango.

(Yobe 4:18; 22:2, 3; 25:4) Kusiyapo pyenepi, iwo ayesera kucitisa Yobe kunyerezera kuti Mulungu nee asanfuna, nee asantsalakana, pontho kutumikira kwace ndi kwakusowa basa. Mafala awo mbadacitisa Yobe kunyerezera kuti iye nkhabebve cidikhiro.

Mayesero ace akhali ninga ntolo wakulemera kakamwe mu ndzidzi wakuti iye ali wakutsukwala kakamwe thangwi yakuferwa na anace. Mbwenye pakutoma Yobe nee alonga cinthu.

Thangwi Yobe aayang’ana mbaapanga mwacipapo kuti: ‘Mpaka kufa kwanga, ine nee ndinasiya kukhala wakukhulupirika!’ (Yobe 27:5) Ninji cidaphedza Yobe toera kukhala wacipapo kakamwe na wamphambvu maseze akhathabuka? Ngakhale mu ndzidzi unoyu wa nyatwa, Yobe nee atawirisa kuti nyatwa zace zincitise kuluza cidikhiro cace cakuti Mulungu wace waufuni mbadam’phedza.

Ngakhale tenepo, Yahova apangiza kuti akhafuna Yobe, pontho kuti Yobe akhali wakutawirika kuna iye.—Yobe 42:7, 8.
