"Atakhala wangwiro, anakhala gwero la chipulumutso chosatha kwa aliyense womumvera. Iye anasankhidwa ndi Mulungu kukhala mkulu wa ansembe mogwirizana ndi dongosolo la Melekizedeki." Ahebri 5:9-10.
Melekizedeke – iye ndi munthu m'Baibulo amene anthu amadziwa zochepa kwambiri za. Mwadzidzidzi anaonekera ndi kupereka chakudya ndi vinyo kwa Abrahamu ndi dalitso pambuyo pakuti Abrahamu anamenya nkhondo kumasula Loti mwana wa mphwake mu mzinda wa Sodomu. Iye anali "Mfumu ya Salemu", koma palibe amene ankadziwa kuti mayi ake ndi bambo ake anali ndani. Anawonekera kwa kanthawi kochepa ndipo kenako anachoka mofulumira, akuzimiririka kubwerera ku zosadziwika. (Genesis 14:18-20.)
Ngakhale kuti pali zochepa kwambiri zodziŵika ponena za iye, nkhani yake nthaŵi zonse yandisangalatsa. Iye anadza kwa Abrahamu panthaŵi yoyenera, analankhula mawu enieni amene Abrahamu anafunikira, ndiyeno anachoka.
Kodi ndingatani kuti ndiselikidwe?
Zandipatsa ine kulakalaka kukhala dalitso ngati Melekizedeke pamene ndikuchita ndi ena. Pangakhale zosowa zambiri mwa omwe amandizungulira. Mwinamwake wina amafunikira mawu okoma mtima, chakudya chabwino, kapena kungomvetsera khutu. Mwinamwake wina akudwala, ali yekha, kapena akuvutika mwanjira inayake. Ngati ndimangoganizira za ine ndekha, zosowa zanga ndi zofuna zanga, n'zosavuta kuphonya mwayi wokhala dalitso kwa ena. Koma ngati ndikufunadi kudalitsa enawo, ndikulakalaka kutumikira Mulungu m'zonse zimene ndimachita, ndiye kuti ndingamvetsere mawu a Mzimu ndi kukhulupirira kuti Iye anganditsogolere kuchita zinthu zimene zingathandize ena.
Koma kodi ndingadziwe bwanji zimene ndingapereke? Kodi ndingadziwe bwanji zimene ndinganene kwa munthu amene angafune? Yankho ndi loyamba kukhala ndi mtima woyera - kuchita zinthu zomwe ndikudziwa kale kuti ndizoyenera. Pamene Mulungu anafuna kuti Mose ndi Aroni alankhule ndi Aisrayeli, Iye anati, "Tsopano pita! Ndidzakuthandizani kulankhula ndipo ndidzakuphunzitsani zoyenera kunena." Eksodo 4:12. Tikakhala mogwirizana ndi zimene tikudziwa kuti n'zabwino, ndiye kuti tilinso ndi lonjezo limeneli. Pamene Mulungu akufuna kuti tichite chinachake, Iye amatipatsanso zimene tiyenera kuchita. Tiyenera kungopita m'chikhulupiriro, kulankhula kapena kuchita zimene Mulungu amalankhula mumtima mwathu, ndiyeno kusiya zotsatira zake kwa Mulungu.
Siyani zotsatira m'manja mwa Mulungu
Ndimadziŵa ndekha, nthaŵi zina kusiya zinthu m'manja mwa Mulungu nkovuta kwambiri. Timakonda kuona zotsatira za ntchito zathu. Kodi ndinanena chinthu choyenera? Kodi munthuyo akuyamikira zimene ndinapereka? Kodi ena amadziwa kuti ndine "madalitso" oterowo?
Malingaliro onsewa angabwere mosavuta. Koma ngati ndikufunafuna ena kuti andithokoze, kapena kunditamanda kapena ngakhale kuona ngati zimene ndinachita kapena kunena zinali zoyenera, ndiye kuti ndikungofunafuna zofuna zanga. Zimenezo si zimene Mulungu akufuna pamene Iye amandigwiritsa ntchito kudalitsa munthu, ndipo si zimene Melekizedeki anachitanso. Iye anachoka mwakachetechete ndi kusiya zonse m'manja mwa Mulungu.
Sizikudziwika ngati ankadziwapo zotsatira za zochita zake. Chowonadi nchakuti, kupereka kwake chakudya ndi vinyo kunapatsa Abrahamu nyonga ndi kulimba mtima pambuyo pa nkhondoyo. Koma chofunika koposa, mawu ake olimbikitsa anachititsa Abrahamu kukana mfumu ya Sodomu pamene anafuna kupatsa Abrahamu chuma cha padziko lapansi. Zimenezi n'zofunika kwambiri, chifukwa zinatanthauza kuti Abulahamu sanakhulupirire zinthu za padziko lapansi kapena anthu, koma Mulungu yekha. Mchitidwe umenewu unali wofunika kwambiri moti Melekizedeke ankadziwikanso kuti "mfumu ya chilungamo". (Ahebri 7:1.)
Pakhala nthawi zina m'moyo wanga pamene ndinkafunadi kuthandiza munthu wina, koma ndinazindikiranso kuti ndinalibe mphamvu zokwanira zaumunthu zotsala, ndipo ndinayenera kupanga chosankha. Kodi ndimapitirizabe kuyesa kuthandiza, podziŵa kuti ndikungochita zimenezo mwa mphamvu zanga? Kapena ndimapita kukasiya munthuyo m'manja mwa Mulungu, podziwa kuti Iye ali ndi dongosolo la anthu amene ndimawaganizira ndi kuti Iye adzapitiriza ntchito Yake? Choyamba mu mtima wa munthu ameneyo, ndipo chachiwiri mwina kudzera mwa ena omwe angamvenso mawu Ake.
Mulungu amapereka kukula!
Nkhani ya Melekizedeke yandithandiza kwambiri pa nthawi zimenezo. Chitsanzo chake chandipatsa chikhulupiriro cholimba mumtima mwanga kuti ndikamvetsera mawu a Mzimu, ndikhoza kukhulupirira zomwe Iye amagwira ntchito mumtima mwanga. Ndikhoza kukhulupirira kwathunthu kuti Mulungu akupitirizabe kugwira ntchito ngakhale nditapita mwakachetechete, ndipo ndikhoza kusiya zotsatira zake kwathunthu m'manja Mwake.
Ndikukumbutsidwa za vesi la pa 1 Akorinto 3:7: "Amene amabzala ndi amene amathirira kwenikweni alibe kanthu. Ndi Mulungu amene ali wofunika, chifukwa amapangitsa chomeracho kukula." Kaya ndikuona zotsatira za ntchito zanga ndi mapemphero anga tsopano kapena kwamuyaya, zilibe kanthu. Chifukwa ndi Mulungu amene ayenera kulandira ulemu kwa iwo.
Nthawi zonse ndikhale woyera kuti ndimve mawu a Mulungu mumtima mwanga, ndikhale wodzichepetsa kuti ndichite ntchito zomwe Iye wandikonzera, ndipo ndikhale wolungama kuti ndikhale ngati "mphepo [yomwe] imawomba kumene ikufuna, ndipo mumve phokoso lake, koma sangathe kudziwa kumene amachokera ndi kumene amapita. Momwemonso aliyense wobadwa mwa Mzimu." Yohane 3:8. Ndicho cholinga changa m'moyo, ndipo ndikudziwa kuti ndidzakhala ndi zonse zomwe ndikufunikira - ndekha komanso kwa ena.
