Pempherani chitsitsimutso! Tikufuna chitsitsimutso! Timamva zimenezi nthaŵi zambiri m'misonkhano yachikristu. Anthu ambiri amaona kuti pakufunika kuti chikhulupiriro chawo chikonzedwenso komanso kuti Mzimu Woyera agwire ntchito mwa iwo.
Chitsitsimutso, kapena kugalamuka kwauzimu, n'kofunika kwambiri kwa Akristu. Iwo amayambitsidwa ndi Mulungu Mwini ndipo amabweza mitima yathu ndi maganizo athu kwa Iye. Chitsitsimutso chimabweretsa moyo ndi mphamvu. Mzimu Woyera wa Mulungu umagwira ntchito kwambiri panthawi ya chitsitsimutso ndipo, pamene atengedwa mwamphamvu, chitsitsimutso chikhoza kukwaniritsa zambiri.
Zotsitsimutsa zomwe zimataya mphamvu
Koma tikuwona kuti chitsitsimutso chachipembedzo chambiri chimafa patapita nthaŵi. Amayamba odzaza ndi mphamvu, koma patapita nthawi onse amafa pansi, ndiyeno chitsitsimutso china ndi chofunikira.
Chimodzi cha chitsitsimutso chachikulu koposa cha chipembedzo chinali ku Ulaya ndi America m'zaka za zana la 18 ndipo chinatenga zaka pafupifupi 20 chisanafe. Pa "Kugalamuka Kwakukulu" kumeneku monga momwe kunatchedwera, zikwi zambiri zinafunafuna unansi waumwini ndi Mulungu. "Kugalamuka Kwakukulu" kwachiŵiri ndi kwachitatu kunachitika m'zaka za zana la 19 ndi 20 komanso kunafa patapita nthaŵi.
Koma n'chifukwa chiyani zili choncho? Ngati chitsitsimutso chimayambitsidwa ndi Mulungu, kodi nchifukwa ninji chimaleka?
Kodi mumayenda mu Mzimu?
Chimodzi mwa zinthu zofunika kwambiri zomwe tingathe kuziwona pa chitsitsimutso chachikristu ndi kukhalapo kwa Mzimu Woyera. Mkati mwa chitsitsimutso chenicheni chauzimu, Mzimu Woyera amalankhula mwamphamvu, ndipo amatisonkhezera kuchitapo kanthu m'miyoyo yathu Yachikristu. Kugwira ntchito kwa Mzimu Woyera panthawi ya chitsitsimutso nthawi zambiri kumakhala kwamphamvu kwambiri moti anthu amakhudzidwa kwambiri, mwauzimu komanso mwamaganizo.
Tsoka ilo, pangakhale ngozi yaikulu mu nthawi yotereyi ngati tikungofuna kusangalala ndi malingaliro osangalatsa awa popanda kumvetsera zomwe Mzimu akulankhula kwenikweni.
Paulo analemba kuti, "Ndipo iwo amene ali a Kristu Yesu apachika thupi ndi zilakolako zake ndi zikhumbo zake. Ngati tikukhala ndi Mzimu, tiyeni nafenso tiyende mwa Mzimu." Agalatiya 5:24-25. Sikokwanira kuti "tikhale ndi moyo mwa Mzimu" ndi kusangalala ndi malingaliro ndi malingaliro omwe nthawi zambiri amabwera ndi chitsitsimutso. Tiyeneranso kumvera zomwe Mzimu umagwira ntchito m'mitima yathu, makamaka (monga momwe Baibulo limanenera) kuti tipachike thupi lathu, lomwe ndi chikhalidwe chathu chaumunthu chochimwa, ndi zilakolako zake ndi zokhumba zake.
Izi zikutanthauza kuti timati Ayi kwa ife eni ndi kusiya chifuniro chathu, zilakolako ndi zikhumbo kuti chifuniro cha Mulungu chichitike m'miyoyo yathu. Timapanga chosankha chozindikira cha kuchita chifuniro cha Mulungu mu mkhalidwe uliwonse, ngakhale pamene zikutanthauza kuti sitingathe kuchita zimene tikufuna . Izi zikuyenda mu Mzimu: kuti ndife omvera Mawu a Mulungu ndi chifuniro m'miyoyo yathu, kulola Mzimu kulamulira miyoyo yathu ndi kutsatira kutsogolera kwa Mzimu mu mbali iliyonse ya moyo wathu.
Anthu ambiri amangobwera ku chikhululukiro cha machimo omwe achita, koma samayamba kukhala momvera Mulungu ndi Mawu Ake, samayamba "kuyenda mu Mzimu". Pamenepo Mzimu adzachoka pa moyo wawo ndipo chitsitsimutso chidzatha. Kodi tingayembekezere motani Mzimu wa Mulungu kupitiriza kugwira ntchito mwamphamvu mwa ife, ngati sitimvera Iye?
Chitsitsimutso chaumwini
Si cholinga cha Mulungu kuti chitsitsimutso chachikristu chithe. Amafuna kuti tikhale ndi chitsitsimutso chaumwini tsiku lililonse mumtima mwathu. "Choncho sitigonja. Thupi lathu lakuthupi likukula ndi kufooka, koma mzimu wathu mkati mwathu umapangidwa kukhala watsopano tsiku lililonse." 2 Akorinto 4:16.
Chitsitsimutso chimasungidwa chamoyo poyenda mu Mzimu, mwa kumvera Mawu a Mulungu, ndi kulimbana ndi kudzisankhira kwathu, komwe kuli kofanana ndi tchimo mu chikhalidwe chathu chaumunthu, mpaka tchimo pang'onopang'ono "kufa". (Ahebri 12:4.) Ngati timamvera Mawu a Mulungu ndi Mzimu m'moyo wathu wa tsiku ndi tsiku, n'zoonekeratu kuti chitsitsimutso sichidzaima m'miyoyo yathu!
Izi sizikutanthauza kuti nthawi zonse tidzakhala ndi malingaliro ndi malingaliro omwewo omwe nthawi zambiri amapita ndi chitsitsimutso chakunja. Koma zikutanthauza kuti tsiku lililonse tingakhale maso pa chifuniro cha Mulungu. M'malo mokhala "ochedwa kumva" zimene Mzimu ukugwira ntchito (Ahebri 5:11), Mzimu umatipatsa chikhumbo cha kuchita chifuniro cha Mulungu tsiku lililonse, ndipo timafulumira kuchita chifuniro chabwino ndi changwiro cha Mulungu.
