Apostle Grace Lubega

And the mixt multitude that was among them fell a lusting: and the children of Israel also wept again and said, Who shall give us flesh to eat? We remember the fish which we did eat in Egypt freely; the cucumbers and the melons and the leeks and the onions and the garlic: But now our soul is dried away: there is nothing at all, beside this manna before our eyes (Numbers 11:4-6)

The children of Israel got to a point where they complained about being given manna from heaven every day. But the truth is that there was a lack of appreciation for what was so freely given simply because they were not digging in the wilderness.

Sometimes people “play” in the gospel because they are given too much and yet the ministers cannot stop because they are mandated by God to give eternal mysteries.

The Bible speaks of Jeshurun who waxed fat and he kicked because he forgot the Lord his God that made him great and lightly esteemed the rock of his salvation (Deuteronomy 32:15).

While some people might wax fat on material wealth, it is possible to wax fat on knowledge and forget God because by its nature, sometimes knowledge can puff up a man (1 Corinthians 8:1).

God wants you to desire for more, not to allow yourself to be too full to receive because in the matters of access to the things of the Spirit, no man can ever have enough of God. Praise Him!

FURTHER STUDY: Jeremiah 20:9, Psalms 119:162

GOLDEN NUGGET:
While some people might wax fat on material wealth, it is possible to wax fat on knowledge and forget God. God wants you to desire for more, not to allow yourself to be too full to receive because in the matters of access to the things of the Spirit, no man can ever have enough of God.

PRAYER: Thank You Lord for Your word, it is precious to me, I can never take it for granted. Even as I increase in knowledge, it is as a fire in my bones and in my spirit; it moves me to win souls and to do great things to the glory of your name. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Okwemanyiza Okumanya

Entumwa Grace Lubega

Omutwe gw’ebijwangye by’abanyamahanga abaabaire bari omuribo baatandika kwetenga; Abaisraeli nabo baagaruka baarira, nibagira bati: N’oha oraatuhe enyama y’okurya? Twaijuka eby’enyanja, ebi twabaire turiira busha, tukiri omuri Misri, emyongo, ebihaaza, obutunguru bw’ebibabi n’obw’ebitakuri, na katunguricumu; mbwenu twomire, titwine kindi kyona eki turikureeba kureka emaanu egi yonka (Okubara 11:4-6).

Abana ba Israeli bakahika aha kutongana ngu nibabaha emaanu okuruga omwiguru burizooba. Kwonka amazima gari ngu bakaba batarikusiima ahabw’ekibahairwe busha ahabw’okuba bakaba batari kuhinga omwihamba.

Obumwe abantu ‘nibazanira’ omu njiri ahabw’okuba bahairwe byaingi kandi obwo abaheereza tibarikubaasa kurekyeraho ahabw’okuba baine endagano na Ruhanga kuheereza enaama ezitarikuhwaho. 

Baiburi negamba ahari Yeshuruuni owagomokire, akateera omugyere, akahanguha, akabengyeya! Akaimuura Ruhanga owaamuhangire, Akaagaya Rukiri w’okujunwa kwe (Eky’Ebiragiro 32:15).

Abantu abamwe baba nibagomokyera aha butungi, nikibaasika kugomokyera aha kumanya okeebwa Ruhanga ahabw’okuba ahabw’obuhangwa bwako, obumwe okumanya kureeta okwetunguura (1 Abakorinso 8:1).

Ruhanga nayenda ku oyetenga ebindi, oteikiriize kugomoka okabura kwakiira ahabw’okuba omu kutuunga ebintu by’Omwoyo, tihaine nomwe orikubaasa kutuunga ebirikumara ebya Ruhanga. Mukama asiimwe!

SHOMA NEEBI: Yeremia 20:9, Zaaburi 119:162

EKY’OKUHAMIZA KIMWE:
Abantu abamwe baba nibagomokyera aha butungi, nikibaasika kugomokyera aha kumanya okeebwa Ruhanga. Ruhanga nayenda ku oyetenga ebindi, oteikiriize kugomoka okabura kwakiira ahabw’okuba omu kutuunga ebintu by’Omwoyo, tihaine nomwe orikubaasa kutuunga ebirikumara ebya Ruhanga. 

OKUSHABA: Ninkusiima Mukama ahabw’ekigambo kyawe, n’ekyomuhendo ahariinye, tindikubaasa kukitwaara nk’ekitaine mugasho. Kundikuba ninyeyongyera omu kumanya, kiri nk’omuriro omu magufa n’omumwoyo wangye; nikindetera okuburira abantu enjiri bakajunwa n’okukora ebintu bikuru ahabw’ekitiinisa ky’eiziina ryawe. Omwiziina rya Yesu. Amiina.

Kumenyera Ubwenge

Apostle Grace Lubega

Abanyamahanga b’ikivange bari hagati y’Abisirayeli batangira kwifuza, Abisirayeli na bo bongera kurira, baravuga bati”Ni nde uzaduha inyama zo kurya? Twibutse ya mafi twariraga ubusa tukiri muri Egiputa, n’amadegede n’amapapayi, n’ubutunguru bw’ibibabi by’ibibati n’ubutunguru bw’ibijumba, n’udutungurucumu. Ariko none turumye nta cyo dufite, nta kindi tureba kitari manu (Kubara 11:4-6)

Abana ba isirayeli bageze ahantu aho bitotomberaga guhabwa manu iva mu ijuru buri munsi. Ariko ukuri ni uko hatari gushima ku kintu bahererwaga ubuntu ku mpamvu y’uko batahingaga mu butayu.

Ibihe bimwe abantu “bakinira” mu gakiza kuko bahabwa byinshi kandi abakozi b’Imana ntibarekera kubibaha kuko babigombwa n’Imana kugabura ubwiru bwayo.

Bibiliya ivuga Yeshuruni wabyibushye agatera umugeri kuko yaretse Imana yamuremye, agasuzugura Imana y’agakiza ke (Gutegeka kwa Kabiri 32:15).

Mu gihe bamwe babyibuha mu bifatika, birashoboka kubyibuha mu bwenge ukibagirwa Imana kuko ari kamere, igihe kimwe ubwenge butera kwihimbaza (1 Abakorinto 8:1).

Imana ishaka ko ushaka ibisumbyeho, kutemera kumva ko wuzuye ku buryo utakwakira ibindi kuko ku byerekeranye no kwakira ibintu by’umwuka, nta muntu wabona Imana ngo agere aho yumva ko ayibonye bihagije. Ahimbazwe!

IBINDI BYANDITSWE: Yeremiya 20:9, Zaburi 119:162

ICYO WAKURAMO:
Mu gihe bamwe babyibuha mu bifatika, birashoboka kubyibuha mu bwenge ukibagirwa Imana. Imana ishaka ko ushaka ibisumbyeho, kutemera kumva ko wuzuye ku buryo utakwakira ibindi kuko ku byerekeranye no kwakira ibintu by’umwuka, nta muntu wabona Imana ngo agere aho yumva ko ayibonye bihagije.

ISENGESHO: Urakoze Mana ku bw’ijambo ryawe, ni iry’igiciro kuri njye, sinzigera ndifata nk’irisanzwe. Uko nkura mu bwenge, ni umuriro mu magupfa yanjye no mu mwuka wanjye; rinsunikira kuzana abantu iwawe no gukora ibikomeye ku bw’icyubahiro cy’izina ryawe. Mu izina rya Yesu. Amen
