Apostle Grace Lubega

1 Corinthians 14:26 (KJV); How is it then, brethren? When ye come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying.

Corporate prayer is not supposed to be an avenue where ‘fireless men’ seek to rekindle the smouldering embers of their spiritual lives. It is not where men with flameless candles come to light their fires by the flames on others’ candles.  

What does this mean? 

We do not use corporate prayer to stir the flickering flames of our prayerless lives into burning brightly again.

While it sometimes inadvertently serves this purpose, this is not the true spirit of corporate prayer. 

The true spirit of corporate prayer is explained in our theme scripture. The Message version says, “So here’s what I want you to do. When you gather for worship, each one of you be prepared with something that will be useful for all: Sing a hymn, teach a lesson, tell a story, lead a prayer, provide an insight.”

This scripture paints a picture of men who gather when they are FULL. Each of them had something that was useful for all.

It means that when believers come together to pray, they must come full of the experiences they received while in their secret places with God. They come charged and overflowing with what God has been pouring into them while they were in their prayer closets.

Hallelujah!!

FURTHER STUDY: 1 Corinthians 14:26, Ephesians 5:19

GOLDEN NUGGET: When believers come together to pray in unison, they must come full of the experiences they received while in their secret places with God. They come charged and overflowing with what God has been pouring into them while they were in their prayer closets.

PRAYER: Loving Father, I thank You for this truth. From Your Word, I understand the purpose of corporate prayer. This wisdom teaches me to prioritise my secret place with You above my prayer time with other men. My closet is a fireplace, consuming me with the power of Your presence.  In Jesus’ name, Amen.

KUHUSU YA MAOMBI YA USHIRIKA

Mtume Grace Lubega

1 Wakorintho 14:26 (KJV); Basi, ndugu, imekuwaje? Mkutanapo pamoja, kila mmoja ana zaburi, ana fundisho, ana ufunuo, ana lugha, ana tafsiri. Mambo yote na yatendeke kwa kusudi la kujenga.

Maombi ya ushirika hayatakiwi kuwa njia ambapo ‘watu wasio na moto’ hutafuta kuwasha upya makaa ya moshi ya maisha yao ya kiroho. Sio mahali ambapo watu walio na mishumaa isiyo na mwali huja kuwasha moto wao kwa miali ya moto kwenye mishumaa ya wengine.

Je, hii ina maana gani?

Hatutumii maombi ya ushirika kuchochea miale ya maisha yetu isiyo na maombi kuwaka tena.

Ingawa wakati mwingine hutumikia kusudi hili bila kukusudia, hii sio roho ya kweli ya maombi ya ushirika.

Roho ya kweli ya maombi ya ushirika imefafanuliwa katika andiko letu la mada. Toleo la Ujumbe linasema, “Kwa hivyo hiki ndicho ninachotaka mfanye. Mnapokusanyika kwa ajili ya ibada, kila mmoja wenu ajitayarishe na jambo ambalo litakuwa la manufaa kwa wote: Imbeni wimbo, fundishani somo, eleza hadithi, ongozeni sala, toeni ufahamu.”

Andiko hili linatoa taswira ya watu wanaokusanyika wakiwa WAMEJAA. Kila mmoja wao alikuwa na kitu ambacho kilikuwa muhimu kwa wote.

Ina maana kwamba waumini wanapokusanyika pamoja ili kuomba, lazima waje wakiwa wamejawa na uzoefu waliopata wakiwa katika eneo lao la siri na Mungu. Wanakuja wakiwa wamebebeshwa mizigo na kufurika kile ambacho Mungu amekuwa akiwamiminia huku wakiwa kwenye vyumba vyao vya maombi.

Haleluya!!

MASOMO YA ZIADA: 1 Wakorintho 14:26, Waefeso 5:19

UJUMBE MKUU: Waumini wanapokusanyika pamoja ili kuomba kwa umoja, ni lazima waje wakiwa wamejawa na uzoefu waliopata wakiwa katika eneo lao la siri na Mungu. Wanakuja wakiwa wamebebeshwa mizigo na kufurika kile ambacho Mungu amekuwa akiwamiminia huku wakiwa kwenye vyumba vyao vya maombi.

SALA: Baba Mpenzi, Nakushukuru kwa kweli hii. Kutoka kwa Neno Lako, ninaelewa madhumuni ya maombi ya pamoja. Hekima hii inanifundisha kutanguliza nafasi yangu ya siri na Wewe juu ya wakati wangu wa maombi na watu wengine. Chumba changu ni mahali pa moto, kinaniteketeza kwa nguvu za uwepo wako. Katika jina la Yesu, Amina.

统一祈祷

使徒卢贝加

◆哥林多前书 14:26 (RCU17SS); 弟兄们，那么，你们该怎么做呢？你们聚会的时候，各人或有诗歌，或有教导，或有启示，或有方言，或有翻出来，凡事都应当造就人。

统一祈祷不应该成为“无火者”寻求重新点燃他们精神生活中燃烧的余烬的途径。这不是拿着无焰蜡烛的人通过别人蜡烛上的火焰来点火的地方。

这是什么意思？

我们不使用统一的祈祷来搅动我们无祈祷生活中闪烁的火焰，使之再次明亮燃烧。

虽然它有时无意中达到了这个目的，但这并不是统一祈祷的真正精神。

我们的主题经文解释了统一祷告的真正精神。信息版本说：“我希望你们做的就是这样。当你们聚集在一起敬拜时，你们每个人都准备好了一些对所有人都有用的东西：唱一首赞美诗，授课，讲一个故事，引导祈祷，提供一个洞察力。”

这段经文描绘了一幅人们满后聚集在一起的画面。他们每个人都有一些对所有了人都有用的东西。

这意味着，当信徒们聚集在一起祈祷时，他们必须已经在与神同在的隐密地方，充满所领受的经验。他们溢满，当他们在自己的祈祷室里时，神一直在向他们倾注。

哈利路亚！！

◆进深学习◆：哥林多前书14:26，以弗所书5:19

◆要领◆：当信徒们来齐声祈祷时，他们必须已经在与神同在的隐密地方，充满所领受的经验。他们溢满，当他们在自己的祈祷室里时，神一直在向他们倾注。

◆ 祷告◆：亲爱的父亲，我为这个真理感谢您。从您的话语中，我明白了统一祈祷的目的。这种智慧教会我优先考虑与您在一起的秘密位置，而不是与别人在一起的祈祷时间。我的祈祷壁橱是一个壁炉，用您的存在的力量消耗着我。以耶稣的名义，阿门。

Apostle Grace Lubega

Matthew 6:6 (KJV); But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.

In my life of ministry, I have known Christians who depend on corporate prayer as the fuel to their prayer lives. They are more comfortable praying with others than they are praying alone. In fact, they are only able to pray for long when praying alongside others.

That is not how any serious child of God builds a life of prayer. Prayer is firstly personal before it is corporate. The closet is not supposed to be a common area.

If you never learn to pray alone, corporate prayer will delude you into thinking that you are a man or woman of prayer yet, in fact, you only burn by other men’s fires, are stirred by other men’s flames and only sail by other men’s winds.

Christ demonstrated this through how He lived. In Matthew 14:23 ESV, the Bible says, “ And after he had dismissed the crowds, he went up on the mountain BY HIMSELF to pray. When evening came, he was there ALONE.”

While there was a time when He invited Peter, James and John to pray with Him (Matthew 26:36-40), His prayer life was predominantly about Him and God.

Thus, prayer is primarily you with God, not you, God and your prayer partner or you, God and your spouse.

None of this means that corporate prayer is a bad thing or that having a prayer partner is unbiblical. It also does not mean that you should not pray with your spouse.

The lesson here is that even when you have people you pray with, be it friends or a spouse, you must have personal alone time with God because a life of divine communion is built on solitude.

FURTHER STUDY: Matthew 14:23, Luke 5:16

GOLDEN NUGGET: Even when you have people you pray with, be it friends or a spouse, you must have personal alone time with God because a life of divine communion is built on solitude.

PRAYER: Loving Father, I thank You for this instruction on prayer. I receive it with humility and practice it with diligence. My heart follows this knowledge, to seek You with wisdom and understanding. I burn by the flames that You stir up in the privacy of my communion with You. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

PEKE YAKO NA MUNGU

Mtume Grace Lubega

Mathayo 6:6 (KJV); Bali wewe usalipo, ingia katika chumba chako cha ndani, na ukiisha kufunga mlango wako, usali mbele za Baba yako aliye sirini; na Baba yako aonaye sirini atakujazi.

Katika maisha yangu ya huduma, nimewajua Wakristo wanaotegemea maombi ya ushirika kama nishati ya maisha yao ya maombi. Wana raha zaidi kuomba pamoja na wengine kuliko kuomba peke yao. Kwa hakika, wanaweza tu kuomba kwa muda mrefu wanaposali pamoja na wengine.

Hivyo sivyo mtoto yeyote wa Mungu aliye makini anavyojenga maisha ya maombi. Maombi ni ya kibinafsi kwanza kabla ya kuwa ya ushirika. Chumbani haifai kuwa eneo la kawaida.

Ikiwa hautawahi kujifunza kuomba peke yako, maombi ya ushirika yatakudanganya kwa kufikiria kuwa wewe ni mwanamume au mwanamke wa maombi lakini kwa kweli, unaungua tu na moto wa watu wengine, unachochewa na miale ya watu wengine na kusafiri tu na pepo za watu wengine.

Kristo alionyesha hili kupitia jinsi alivyoishi. Katika Mathayo 14:23 Biblia inasema, “Naye akiisha kuwaaga makutano, alipanda mlimani MWENYEWE ili kuomba. Ilipofika jioni, alikuwa huko PEKE YAKE.”

Ingawa kulikuwa na wakati ambapo Aliwaalika Petro, Yakobo na Yohana kusali pamoja Naye (Mathayo 26:36-40), maisha yake ya maombi yalimhusu Yeye na Mungu.

Kwa hivyo, maombi kimsingi ni wewe na Mungu, sio wewe, Mungu na mshirika wako wa maombi au wewe, Mungu na mwenzi wako.

Haimaanishi kwamba maombi ya ushirika ni jambo baya au kwamba kuwa na mshirika wa maombi ni kinyume cha Biblia. Pia haimaanishi kwamba hupaswi kuomba pamoja na mwenzi wako.

Somo hapa ni kwamba hata unapokuwa na watu unaosali nao, iwe marafiki au mke au mume, ni lazima uwe na muda binafsi wa pekee na Mungu maana maisha ya ushirika wa kiungu hujengwa katika upweke.

MASOMO YA ZIADA: Mathayo 14:23, Luka 5:16

UJUMBE MKUU: Hata unapokuwa na watu unaosali nao, iwe marafiki au mke au mume, ni lazima uwe na muda wa faragha na Mungu kwa sababu maisha ya ushirika wa kimungu hujengwa katika upweke.

SALA: Baba Mpenzi, Nakushukuru kwa maelekezo haya juu ya maombi. Ninayapokea kwa unyenyekevu na kuyafanyia kazi kwa bidii. Moyo wangu unafuata elimu hii, kukutafuta kwa hekima na ufahamu. Ninachoma kwa miali ya moto ambayo Unawasha katika faragha ya ushirika wangu na Wewe. Katika jina la Yesu, Amina.

与神独处

使徒卢贝加

◆马太福音6:6 (CUVS); 你祷告的时候，要进你的内屋，关上门，祷告你在暗中的父；你父在暗中察看，必然报答你。

在我的事奉生活中，我认识一些基督徒，他们依靠集体祈祷作为他们祈祷生活的燃料。他们和别人一起祈祷比独自祈祷更舒服。事实上，他们只有在与他人一起祈祷时才能长时间祈祷。

任何认真的神的孩子，都不是这样建立祷告的生活的。祷告首先是个人的，然后才是集体的。壁橱不应该是公共区域。

如果你从未学会独自祈祷，公司的祈祷会让你误以为你是一个祈祷的男人或女人，但事实上，你燃烧的唯一原因是因为其他男人的火焰，被其他男人的火焰搅动，只被其他男人的风吹动。

基督通过他的生活方式证明了这一点。在马太福音14:23 中，圣经说，“散了众人以後，他就独自上山去祷告。到了晚上，只有他一人在那里。 ”

虽然有一段时间他邀请彼得、雅各和约翰与他一起祷告(马太福音26:36-40)，但他的祷告生活主要是关于他和神。

因此，祷告主要是你和神在一起，而不是你，神和你的祷告伙伴，或者你，神和你的配偶。

这并不意味着集体祷告是件坏事，也不意味着有一个祷告的伙伴是违反圣经的。 这也不是说你不应该和你的配偶一起祈祷。

这里的教训是，即使你有和你一起祷告的人，无论是朋友还是配偶，你也必须有与神单独相处的时间，因为神圣交流的生活是建立在孤独之上的。

Apostle Grace Lubega

Jeremiah 29:13 (KJV); And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.

When you pray to God, you must ensure to do so in the way that best works for you. 

What do I mean by this?

I have met Christians whose prayer lives are nothing more than an imitation of how some other Christian prays. Because they saw brother Alex praying while clutching his chest, they adopted that as a method of prayer. Some heard that sister Martha wakes up at 3am every morning to pray, and assumed that prayers are best heard by God at 3am.

You cannot build your relationship with God by copying another man’s relationship with Him. You must understand that each of us is extremely unique. It is with this very uniqueness that God expects us to approach Him.  

It is okay to find what works for you. 

Some people are comfortable praying early in the morning, others are more comfortable doing so late in the evening. Some prefer to pace up and down, others prefer to sit still. Some prefer to lie prostrate, some prefer to stand. 

In prayer, always remember that God is not interested in the semantics but in the heart that prays. Be as authentic as you can be, that way, your heart will surely pray.

FURTHER STUDY: Deuteronomy 4:29, Psalm 119:10

GOLDEN NUGGET: In prayer, always remember that God is not interested in the semantics but in the heart that prays. Be as authentic as you can be, that way, your heart will surely pray.

PRAYER: Loving Father, You have said in Your Word that a broken and contrite heart You will not despise. Today, I come to You with no pretensions and no acts. I come as I am, with no cover-ups and no methods. I do not come with colourful words and grand gestures. I come with an open heart knowing that I am accepted. As I am, I yield to You even as You work in and through me. Today, I hear You more than ever before.  In Jesus’ name, Amen.

MOYO UNAPOOMBA

Mtume Grace Lubega

Yeremia 29:13 (KJV); Nanyi mtanitafuta na kuniona, mtakaponitafuta kwa moyo wenu wote.

Unapoomba kwa Mungu, lazima uhakikishe kufanya hivyo kwa njia ambayo inakufaa vyema zaidi.

Namaanisha nini kwa hili?

Nimekutana na Wakristo ambao maisha yao ya maombi si chochote zaidi ya kuiga jinsi Wakristo wengine wanavyoomba. Kwa sababu walimwona kaka Alex akiomba huku akiwa ameshika kifua chake, waliikubali hiyo kama njia ya maombi. Wengine walisikia kwamba dada Martha huamka saa tisa asubuhi kila asubuhi ili kuomba, na kudhani kwamba maombi husikilizwa vyema na Mungu saa tisa asubuhi.

Huwezi kujenga uhusiano wako na Mungu kwa kuiga uhusiano wa mtu mwingine Naye. Lazima uelewe kuwa kila mmoja wetu ni wa kipekee sana. Ni kwa upekee huu ambapo Mungu anatutazamia tumkaribie.

Ni sawa kupata kile kinachofaa kwako.

Baadhi ya watu wanastarehe kuomba mapema asubuhi, wengine wanastarehe zaidi kufanya hivyo jioni sana. Wengine wanapendelea kupanda na kushuka, wengine wanapendelea kukaa tuli. Wengine wanapendelea kulala kifudifudi, wengine wanapendelea kusimama.

Katika maombi, kumbuka daima kwamba Mungu hapendezwi na semantiki bali moyo unaoomba. Uwe wa kweli uwezavyo kuwa, kwa njia hiyo, moyo wako hakika utaomba.

当一个人的内心祈祷

使徒卢贝加

◆ 耶利米书29:13 (CUVS); 你们寻求我 ， 若专心寻求我 ， 就必寻见 。

当你向神祷告的时候，你必须确保以最适合你的方式来祷告。

我这是什么意思？

我见过一些基督徒，他们的祈祷生活不过是模仿其他基督徒的祈祷方式而已。因为他们看到亚历克斯兄弟紧紧抓住自己的胸膛祈祷，所以他们采用了那种祈祷方式。 有些人听说玛莎修女每天凌晨3点起床祈祷，并认为祈祷最好在凌晨3点被上帝听到。

你不能通过模仿别人与上帝的关系来建立你与上帝的关系。你必须明白我们每个人都是独一无二的。 正是这种独特的特质，神希望我们接近他。

找到适合你的方法是可以的。

有些人喜欢在清晨祈祷，有些人则更喜欢在晚上祈祷。 有些人喜欢在清晨祈祷，有些人则更喜欢在晚上祈祷。

在祷告的时候，要永远记住神对语义不感兴趣，而是对祷告的心感兴趣。尽你所能做真实的自己，这样，你的心就会祈祷。

Apostle Grace Lubega

Jeremiah 33:3 (AMPC); Call to Me and I will answer you and show you great and mighty things, fenced in and hidden, which you do not know (do not distinguish and recognize, have knowledge of and understand).

There is a difference between talking WITH God and talking TO God. 

Most people spend their prayer time talking TO God; ‘bombarding’ Him with their grievances, needs and problems. Even if God were to try, He cannot get in a word edgewise because the Christian is so busy talking. Because true and effective prayer is based on a relationship, it cannot be a mere monologue. You must give God the opportunity to speak. 

This is a lesson I learned many years ago. There was a time I prayed about the same issue over and over again yet in vain. One day, the Lord asked me, “Have you actually consulted me about this issue?” This question gave me pause because I suddenly realised that I had not asked Him and neither had I taken time to listen to His response. When He eventually told me what to do about the matter, my greatest regret was how much time I had wasted talking instead of listening to what God had to say about the issue.

Our theme scripture clearly reveals to us that God is very interested in talking WITH us. He wants to reveal to us great and mighty things. He wants to discuss purpose and destiny with us when we pray, not merely to be a receptacle for our list of needs.

In Deuteronomy 4:36, the Bible says, “Out of heaven he made thee to hear his voice, that he might instruct thee.” God wants you to hear His voice so that He can instruct you.

In prayer, you must remember that God wants to speak to you too. Be more eager to listen than to speak.

FURTHER STUDY: Deuteronomy 4:36, Ecclesiastes 5:2

GOLDEN NUGGET: There is a difference between talking WITH God and talking TO God. In prayer, you must remember that God wants to speak to you too. Be more eager to listen than to speak.

PRAYER: Loving Father, I thank You for this truth. You have said in Your Word that You cause me to hear Your voice that You may instruct me. Today, my heart is open not just to Your voice but to Your instructions. Even in Your silence, I hear instructions because You have taught me how to listen to You. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

KUBAZA NA RUHANGA

Haroho embaganiza hagati y’okubaza hamu na Ruhanga n’okubaliza Ruhanga.

Abantu nyamwingi bamara obusumi bwabu obw’okusaba nibabaliza Ruhanga; ‘nibamuhungu’ra’ okuhyema kwabu, ebyetaago hamu n’ebizibu. Ruhanga nobwakulengaho, tasobora kutahyamu n’obukakuba akasonda k’ekigambo habw’okuba omu kristayo nabaza obutaleka.

KUZUNGUMZA NA MUNGU

Yeremia 33:3 (AMPC); Niite, nami nitakuitikia na kukuonyesha mambo makubwa na yenye nguvu, yaliyofungwa na kufichwa, usiyoyajua wewe (usiyoweza kutofautisha na kutambua, ambayo hauna maarifa na uelewa kuhusu).

Kuna tofauti kati ya KUZUNGUMZA na Mungu KUZUNGUMZIA Mungu.

Watu wengi hutumia muda wao wa maombi kuzungumzia Mungu; ‘kumpa’ malalamiko, mahitaji na matatizo yao. Hata kama Mungu angejaribu, hawezi kuwapa hata neno moja kwa sababu Mkristo huyo anajishughulisha katika kuzungumza. Kwa sababu sala ya kweli na yenye ufanisi inategemea uhusiano, haiwezi kuwa mazungumzo ya upande mmoja tu. Ni lazima umpe Mungu nafasi ya kuzungumza.

Hili ni somo nililojifunza miaka mingi iliyopita. Kuna wakati nilisali kuhusu jambo lile lile tena na tena lakini bila mafanikio. Siku moja, Bwana aliniuliza, “Je, kweli umeniuliza mawaidha kuhusu suala hili?” Swali hili lilinifanya nitulie kwani ghafla niligundua kuwa sikumuuliza na wala sikupata muda wa kusikiliza majibu yake. Hatimaye Aliponiambia la kufanya kuhusu jambo hilo, majuto yangu makubwa zaidi yalikuwa ni muda mwingi ambao nilikuwa nimepoteza kuzungumza badala ya kusikiliza Mungu anasema nini kuhusu suala hilo.

Andiko letu kuu linatufunulia waziwazi kwamba Mungu anapenda sana kuzungumza NA sisi. Anataka kutufunulia mambo mengi na makuu. Anataka kuzungumzia kusudi na hatima pamoja nasi tunaposali, si tu kuwa kipokezi cha orodha yetu ya mahitaji.

Katika Kumbukumbu la Torati 4:36, Biblia inasema, “Toka mbinguni amekusikizisha sauti yake, ili akufundishe.” Mungu anataka uisikie sauti yake ili akufundishe.

Katika maombi, lazima ukumbuke kwamba Mungu anataka kusema nawe piya kusikiliza kuliko kuongea.

MASOMO YA ZIADA: Kumbukumbu la Torati 4:36, Mhubiri 5:2

UJUMBE MKUU: Kuna tofauti kati ya kuzungumza NA Mungu na kuzungumzia Mungu. Katika maombi, lazima ukumbuke kwamba Mungu anataka kusema nawe pia. Kuwa na hamu ya kusikiliza kuliko kuongea.

SALA: Baba Mpenzi, Nakushukuru kwa kweli hii. Umesema katika Neno lako kwamba unanifanya nisikie sauti yako ili unifundishe. Leo, moyo wangu uko wazi sio tu kwa sauti Yako bali kwa maagizo Yako. Hata katika ukimya Wako, nasikia maagizo kwa sababu umenifundisha jinsi ya kukusikiliza Wewe. Katika jina la Yesu, Amina.

与神交谈

使徒卢贝加

耶利米书 33:3 CUNPSS “你求告我，我就应允你，并将你所不知道、又大又难的事指示你。”

与神交谈和与神交谈是有区别的。与神交谈与与与神交谈和聆听神是有区别的

大多数人把祈祷时间花在与神交谈上用他们的不满、需求和问题轰炸他。 即使神尝试，他也不能插嘴，因为基督徒正忙着说话。 因为真正有效的祈祷是建立在一段关系的基础上的，它不能仅仅是一段独白。 你必须给神说话的机会。

这是我多年前学到的一课。 有一段时间，我一遍又一遍地为同样的问题祈祷，但都是徒劳的。有一天，神问我：“你真的就这个问题咨询过我吗？” 这个问题让我停顿了一下，因为我突然意识到我没有问他，也没有花时间听他的回答。 当他最终告诉我如何处理这件事时，我最大的遗憾是我浪费了太多的时间去谈论而不是倾听神对这个问题的看法。

我们的主题经文清楚地告诉我们，神对与我们交谈很感兴趣。 他想向我们展示伟大而强大的事物。 当我们祈祷时，他想和我们讨论目的和命运，而不仅仅是作为我们需求清单的容器。

在申命记 4:36, 圣经上说, “他从天上使你听见他的声音，为要教训你，又在地上使你看见他的烈火，并且听见他从火中所说的话。” 神希望你能听到他的声音，以便他能教导你。

在祷告中，你必须记住神也要和你说话。 更愿意听而不是说。

◆进深学习◆： 申命记 4:36, 传道书 5:2

◆要领◆： 与神交谈与与与神交谈和聆听神是有区别的。在祷告中，你必须记住神也要和你说话。 更愿意听而不是说。

◆ 祷告◆ ： 慈爱的父亲,我感谢您的真理。你曾用你的话说，你使我听见你的声音，好教训我。 今天，我的心不仅向你的声音敞开，而且向你的指示敞开。 即使在你的沉默中，我也能听到指示，因为你教会了我如何倾听你。以耶稣的名义，阿门。

Apostle Grace Lubega

Jeremiah 29:13 (KJV); And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.

Oftentimes, people excuse their inability to spend time in the presence of God by claiming that they cannot spare enough time for it. They are very busy, so they claim, as such, to find an hour in their schedules to speak to God would be asking for too much.

For some, their jobs are too demanding, they claim. They are required to be up very early to make it to the office in time and when they return, they are too tired and sleep is their sole focus. How should they be expected to pray when they must dash out of their homes in the morning in order to beat the traffic or return home too exhausted from the day’s activities? Should they be blamed if their days are too hectic for them to even consider praying within the day itself?

Today, I write to that man or woman who thinks that the reason they are not praying is because they do not have time to pray.

The truth is that consistency in prayer is not a question of how much free time a person may or may not have, it is a question of the heart. In our theme scripture, God says that when you seek Him, you must do so with all your heart. A willing heart will always find a way to spend time with God.

Martin Luther, the seminal figure in the Protestant Reformation once said, “I have so much to do that I shall spend the first three hours[of my day] in prayer.” That was a willing heart. A willing heart will pray through the veils of fatigue at the end of a long day, until the strength to pray more deeply rises in his heart. More importantly, a willing heart is yielded to the Spirit of God to lead him in prayer in any place and at any time.

If you find yourself struggling to find the time to pray, understand that it is not because you are too busy. It is most likely that your heart doesn’t beat after His presence. Instead of asking God to avail you time to pray, ask Him to deal with your heart.

FURTHER STUDY: Luke 18:1, 1 Thessalonians 5:17

GOLDEN NUGGET: Consistency in prayer is not a question of how much free time a person may or may not have, it is a question of the heart. A willing heart will always find a way to spend time with God.

PRAYER: Loving Father, I thank You for this word. The Bible says that men ought to always pray and not to faint. It says that I must pray without ceasing. It says that You have given to me the Spirit of prayer and supplication and that my labour in prayer is not by power nor might but by Your Spirit. You cause me to pray and to abide consistently in You. I am without excuse because I have received this understanding. I can never live a prayerless life. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

MOYO WA HIARI

Mtume Grace Lubega

Yeremia 29:13 (KJV); Nanyi mtanitafuta na kuniona, mtakaponitafuta kwa moyo wenu wote.

Mara nyingi, watu hutetea kutoweza kwao kutumia muda katika uwepo wa Mungu kwa kudai kwamba hawawezi kutenga muda wa kutosha kwa ajili yake. Wana shughuli nyingi sana, kwa hiyo wanadai, kwa hivyo, kupata saa katika ratiba zao za kuzungumza na Mungu itakuwa ni kuuliza mengi sana.

Kwa wengine, kazi zao zinadai sana, wanadai. Wanatakiwa kuamka mapema sana ili kufika ofisini kwa wakati na wakirudi wanakuwa wamechoka sana na usingizi ndio lengo lao pekee. Je, wanapaswa kutarajiwa kusali jinsi gani wakati lazima watoke nje ya nyumba zao asubuhi ili kuwashinda msongamano wa magari au warudi nyumbani wakiwa wamechoka sana kutokana na shughuli za siku hiyo? Je, wanapaswa kulaumiwa ikiwa siku zao zina shughuli nyingi sana hata kufikiria kusali ndani ya siku yenyewe?

Leo, ninamwandikia huyo mwanamume au mwanamke anayefikiri kwamba sababu ya wao kutoomba ni kwa sababu hawana muda wa kuomba.

Ukweli ni kwamba uthabiti katika maombi si suala la muda, mtu anaweza kuwa nao au asiwe nao, ni suala la moyo. Katika andiko letu la mada, Mungu anasema kwamba unapomtafuta, lazima ufanye hivyo kwa moyo wako wote. Moyo wa hiari daima utapata njia ya kutumia wakati na Mungu.

Martin Luther, mhusika mkuu katika Matengenezo ya Kiprotestanti alisema wakati fulani, “Nina mengi sana ya kufanya hivi kwamba nitatumia saa tatu za kwanza [za siku yangu] katika maombi.” Huo ulikuwa moyo wa kujitolea. Moyo wa hiari utaomba kupitia vifuniko vya uchovu mwishoni mwa siku ndefu, hadi nguvu ya kuomba inapanda zaidi moyoni mwake. Muhimu zaidi, moyo wa hiari hutolewa kwa Roho wa Mungu ili kumwongoza katika maombi mahali popote na wakati wowote.

Ukiona unatatizika kupata muda wa kuomba, elewa kwamba si kwa sababu una shughuli nyingi. Kuna uwezekano mkubwa kwamba moyo wako hautamani uwepo Wake. Badala ya kumwomba Mungu akupe muda wa kuomba, mwombe aushughulikie moyo wako.

MASOMO YA ZIADA: Luka 18:1, 1 Wathesalonike 5:17

UJUMBE MKUU: Uthabiti katika maombi sio suala la muda, mtu anaweza kuwa nao au hawezi kuwa nao, ni swali la moyo. Moyo wa hiari daima utapata njia ya kutumia wakati na Mungu.

SALA: Baba Mwenye Upendo, Nakushukuru kwa neno hili. Biblia inasema inawapasa watu kusali siku zote wala wasikate tamaa. Inasema kwamba lazima niombe bila kukoma. Inasema kwamba umenipa Roho ya maombi na dua na kwamba kazi yangu katika maombi si kwa nguvu wala uwezo bali ni kwa Roho wako. Unanifanya niombe na kukaa ndani Yako mfululizo. Sina udhuru kwa sababu nimepata ufahamu huu. Siwezi kamwe kuishi maisha yasiyo na maombi. Katika jina la Yesu, Amina.

Apostle Grace Lubega

Ephesians 3:17-19 (AMPC); May Christ through your faith [actually] dwell (settle down, abide, make His permanent home) in your hearts! May you be rooted deep in love and founded securely on love, That you may have the power and be strong to apprehend and grasp with all the saints [God’s devoted people, the experience of that love] what is the breadth and length and height and depth [of it]; [That you may really come] to know [practically, through experience for yourselves] the love of Christ, which far surpasses mere knowledge [without experience]; that you may be filled [through all your being] unto all the fullness of God [may have the richest measure of the divine Presence, and become a body wholly filled and flooded with God Himself]!

The presence of God in your life is the most important thing you need. The deeper the presence, the greater the manifestation of the power of God in your life.

His presence has levels. The level of the presence of God in a bar is not the same level of His presence in a church. The level of His presence in ministries also differs.

This variance in the levels of His presence also appears in our individual lives. God’s presence is manifested greatly in the lives of some individuals while in others, it is barely manifested at all.

If a man settles for a lesser level of the manifestation of His presence, it is inevitable that he will live a life with limited demonstration of the power of God.

Is this God’s plan for us? No. His desire is reflected in our theme scripture.

God wants you to be filled [through all your being] unto all the fullness of God [may have the richest measure of the divine Presence, and become a body wholly filled and flooded with God Himself]! He is inviting us to deeper levels of His presence. He wants us to live lives wherein whatever we do, men look at us and see Him.

Don’t settle for less. Respond to this invitation. Seek and commune with Him more than ever before. Launch into His Word deeper than ever before. Do not merely live the Christian life, live an extraordinary Christian life.

Hallelujah!

FURTHER STUDY: Acts 17:28, John 17:23

GOLDEN NUGGET: God is inviting us to deeper levels of His presence. He wants us to live lives wherein whatever we do, men look at us and see Him. Don’t settle for less. Respond to this invitation.

PRAYER: Loving Father, I thank You for this truth. I know who You are. Greater is He that is in me than He that is in the world. I have been called for greatness. I refuse to settle for less and yield my heart to Your power. My spirit is exercised to be continually conscious of the God who lives in me. By this, I live a life of miracles, signs and wonders. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

KIPIMO CHA UTAJIRI ZAIDI WA UWEPO WAKE

Mtume Grace Lubega

Waefeso 3: 17-19 (AMPC); Naomba Kristo kwa imani yenu [kwa hakika] aishi (kaeni, mfanye makao yake ya kudumu) mioyoni mwenu! Naomba muwe na mizizi ya kina katika upendo na kujengwa kwa usalama wa upendo, Ili muweze kuwa na nguvu ya kuelewa na kufahamu pamoja na watakatifu wote [watu wa Mungu waliojitolea, uzoefu wa upendo huo] ni upana na urefu na kina [chake]; [Ili kweli mje] kujua [kivitendo, kwa njia ya uzoefu kwenu] upendo wa Kristo, ambao unapita maarifa tu [bila uzoefu]; ili mjazwe [katika utu wenu wote] katika ukamilifu wote wa Mungu, [na kuwa na kipimo cha utajiri zaidi cha uwepo wa Mungu, na kuwa mwili uliojaa kabisa na kufurika na Mungu Mwenyewe]!

Uwepo wa Mungu katika maisha yako ni jambo muhimu zaidi unachohitaji. Uwepo wa kina zaidi, ndio dhihirisho kuu zaidi la nguvu za Mungu katika maisha yako.

Uwepo wake una viwango. Kiwango cha uwepo wa Mungu katika baa sio kiwango sawa cha uwepo Wake katika kanisa. Kiwango cha uwepo Wake katika huduma pia hutofautiana.

Tofauti hii katika viwango vya uwepo Wake pia huonekana katika maisha yetu binafsi. Uwepo wa Mungu unadhihirishwa sana katika maisha ya watu wengine wakati kwa wengine, haudhihirishi kabisa.

Ikiwa mtu atakaa kwa kiwango kidogo cha udhihirisho wa uwepo Wake, ni hakika kwamba ataishi maisha na maonyesho ya kiwango cha chini ya nguvu za Mungu.

Je, huu ndio mpango wa Mungu kwetu? La. Hamu yake inaonyeshwa katika andiko letu kuu.

Mungu anataka ujazwe [nafsi yako yote] kwa ukamilifu wote wa Mungu [inaweza kuwa na kipimo cha utajiri wa uwepo wa Mungu, na kuwa mwili uliojaa kabisa na kufurika Mungu Mwenyewe]! Anatualika katika viwango vya kina vya uwepo Wake. Anataka tuishi maisha ambayo katika chochote tunachofanya, wanadamu wanatuangalia na kumwona.

Usikubali kiwango cha chini. Jibu mwaliko huu. Mtafute na uwasiliane naye zaidi kuliko hapo awali. Zindua katika Neno Lake zaidi kuliko hapo awali. Usiishi tu maisha ya Kikristo, ishi maisha ya Kikristo ya ajabu.

Halleluya!

MASOMO YA ZIADA: Matendo 17:28, Yohana 17:23

Ninakataa kukubali kiwango cha chini na kusalimisha moyo wangu kwa nguvu Zako. Roho yangu inatekelezwa daima kumfahamu Mungu anayeishi ndani yangu.

Apostle Grace Lubega

Psalm 119:96 (KJV); I have seen an end of all perfection: but thy commandment is exceeding broad.

Oftentimes, people live their lives in pursuit of things they do not need. The problem is that most of them do not know that they don’t need these things.

True deliverance comes when God shows you that you actually do not need the things that you are dying to have. This experience changes your perspective of what is important and what is not. It transforms how you seek the Lord and why you seek Him.

Our theme scripture is a result of such an experience by David. The Lord took him to the end of all perfection, of all pleasures, of all earthly pursuits and gave him the realisation that none of those things could be compared to what the Word of God is.

You do not have to sample all the pleasures of life to understand that they are vanity. Solomon did so for you and passed his verdict, “vanity, all is vanity” (Ecclesiastes 1:2).

The Word of God is the ultimate pleasure. When Job realised this, he said that it is better than necessary food (Job 23:12). In the New Testament, Christ tells us that we live by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God (Matthew 4:4).

Pursue the Word of God because that is where contentment starts. It is the fountain that diminishes all other needs and leaves us with our true need — the need for God.

Apostle Grace Lubega

Psalm 131:1-2 (KJV); Lord, my heart is not haughty, nor mine eyes lofty: neither do I exercise myself in great matters, or in things too high for me. Surely I have behaved and quieted myself, as a child that is weaned of his mother: my soul is even as a weaned child.

A man with a weaned soul does not exercise himself in things that are too high for him. The message version of our theme scripture calls this meddling where one has no business.

One example of meddling where one has no business is judging a man based on his actions without understanding what God thinks about that man.

For example, if David was alive today and committed the kind of errors in judgment that he did by taking Uriah’s wife and arranging for his death (2 Samuel 11), there are those who would disqualify him and assume that even God does not want anything to do with him.

Such a matter is too high for you because you are not privy to the closet of that man. You may be criticising a man who has broken before God and begged for forgiveness. He may be condemned in your eyes yet still be the man after God’s own heart.

A weaned Christian has been dealt with in the ways of life and of the spirit. When I see believers who easily open their mouths to criticise another, I know that they have not been weaned.

A weaned soul knows the value of silence when there is undue pressure to speak. Such a man only speaks when he must because his spirit is too disciplined to be emotionally provoked into the errors of opinion-making.

FURTHER STUDY: 2 Samuel 11, 1 Thessalonians 4:11

GOLDEN NUGGET: A weaned Christian has been dealt with in the ways of life and of the spirit. Such a man only speaks when he must because his spirit is too disciplined to be emotionally provoked into the errors of opinion-making.

PRAYER: Loving Father, I thank You for this truth. I know what You have called me to do. My path is set and my goal is clear. I can never be swayed by naysayers, I do not answer to critics. You have taught me not to judge men but to pray for them. This is the wisdom by which I live my life. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

KUHUSU NAFSI ILIYOACHISHWA

Mtume Grace Lubega

Zaburi 131:1-2 (KJV); Bwana, moyo wangu hauna kiburi, Wala macho yangu hayainuki. Wala sijishughulishi na mambo makuu, Wala na mambo yashindayo nguvu zangu. Hakika nimeituliza nafsi yangu, Na kuinyamazisha. Kama mtoto aliyeachishwa, Ndivyo roho yangu ilivyo kwangu.

Mtu aliye na nafsi iliyoachishwa hajitumikii katika mambo ambayo ni ya juu sana kwake. Toleo la ‘message’ la andiko letu kuu linaita hii kuingilia ambapo mtu hana biashara.

Mfano mmoja wa kuingilia ambapo mtu hana biashara ni kumhukumu mtu kulingana na matendo yake bila kuelewa kile ambacho Mungu anafikiria kuhusu mtu huyo.

Kwa mfano, kama Daudi angekuwa hai leo na kufanya aina ya makosa katika hukumu ambayo alifanya kwa kumchukua mke wa Uria na kupanga kifo chake (2 Samweli 11), kuna wale ambao wangemkataa na kudhani kwamba hata Mungu hataki chochote kinachomhusu.

Jambo kama hilo ni juu sana kwako kwa sababu wewe si mtu wa karibu wa mtu huyo. Unaweza kumkosoa mtu ambaye amevunjika mbele za Mungu na kuomba msamaha. Anaweza kuhukumiwa machoni mwako lakini bado awe ni mtu anayeufuata moyo wa Mungu mwenyewe.

Mkristo aliyeachishwa ameshughulikiwa katika njia za maisha na roho. Ninapowaona waumini ambao hufungua midomo yao kwa urahisi kukosoa wengine, najua kwamba hawajaachishwa.

Roho iliyoachishwa inajua thamani ya kimya wakati kuna shinikizo lisilo la kweli la kuzungumza. Mtu kama huyo anaongea tu wakati ni lazima kwa sababu roho yake ina nidhamu zaidi ya kutochochewa kihisia kutoa maoni.

MASOMO YA ZIADA: 2 Samweli 11, 1 Wathesalonike 4:11

UJUMBE MKUU: Mkristo aliyeachishwa ameshughulikiwa katika njia za maisha na roho. Mtu kama huyo anaongea tu wakati ni lazima kwa sababu roho yake ina nidhamu zaidi ya kutochochewa kihisia kutoa maoni.

SALA: Baba Mpenzi, Nakushukuru kwa kweli hii. Ninajua ni nini umeniita kufanya. Njia yangu imewekwa na lengo langu liko wazi. Siwezi kamwe kuondolewa njiani na wanaonena, sijibu wakosoaji. Umenifundisha sio kuwahukumu watu bali kuwaombea. Hii ndiyo hekima ambayo ninaishi kwayo maishani mwangu. Kwa jina la Yesu, Amina.

Apostle Grace Lubega

Matthew 10:34-35 (MSG); Don’t think I’ve come to make life cozy. I’ve come to cut– make a sharp knife-cut between son and father, daughter and mother, bride and mother-in-law–cut through these cozy domestic arrangements and free you for God.

When God consecrates a man, He will specifically deal with his associations. The Lord knows that the people around you determine a number of things about how you grow and relate with Him.

In the life of the gospel, I have seen people cling to relationships that God is attempting to separate them from because they are destructive to their destinies.

In 2 Corinthians 6:14, the Bible says, “Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?”

This scripture is often looked at in the context of marriage to unbelievers. But there is more to it than that.

There are people in your life with whom you may be in the same book but different chapters; you may be in the same chapter but different pages or, you may even be in the same library but in different books. Sometimes elevation will mean separation from those with whom you share similarities yet to God, your paths are too different.

If you no longer have the desire to hang out in the places that your friends used to hang out, you must pay attention to that fact, it may be that God is separating you from those associations.

FURTHER STUDY: 2 Corinthians 6:14, 1 Corinthians 15:33

GOLDEN NUGGET: When God consecrates a man, He will specifically deal with his associations. Sometimes elevation will mean separation from those with whom you share similarities yet to God, your paths are too different.

PRAYER: Loving Father, I thank You for this truth. Thank You for the wisdom to know who is in my life for only a season and who I must let go of. I will never let my relationships stand in the way of my God-given destiny. I yield to Your leading and instruction even as You elevate me in the call that You have for my life. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

HURU KWA MUNGU – 2

Mtume Grace Lubega

Mathayo 10:34-35 (MSG); Usifikiri nimekuja kufanya maisha kuwa ya starehe. Nimekuja kukata—kukata kisu chenye ncha kali kati ya mwana na baba, binti na mama, bibi-arusi na mama mkwe—upanga unaopitia mipango hii ya nyumbani yenye kupendeza na kukuweka huru kwa ajili ya Mungu.

Wakati Mungu anamtakasa mtu, atashughulikia hasa mahusiano yake. Bwana anajua kwamba watu walio karibu nawe huamua mambo kadhaa kuhusu jinsi unavyokua na kuhusiana naye.

Katika maisha ya injili, nimeona watu wakishikilia mahusiano ambayo Mungu anajaribu kuwatenganisha kwa sababu ni haribifu kwa hatima zao.

Katika 2 Wakorintho 6:14, Biblia inasema, “Msifungiwe nira pamoja na wasioamini, kwa jinsi isivyo sawasawa; kwa maana pana urafiki gani kati ya haki na uasi? Tena pana shirika gani kati ya nuru na giza?”

Andiko hili mara nyingi hutazamwa katika muktadha wa ndoa kwa wasioamini. Lakini lina zaidi kuliko hilo.

Kuna watu katika maisha yako ambao unaweza kuwa katika kitabu kimoja lakini sura tofauti; unaweza kuwa katika sura moja lakini kurasa tofauti au, unaweza hata kuwa katika maktaba moja lakini katika vitabu tofauti. Wakati mwingine kuinuliwa kutamaanisha kujitenga na wale ambao mnafanana lakini bado kwa Mungu, njia zenu ni tofauti sana.

Ikiwa huna tena hamu ya kupunga upepo katika maeneo ambayo marafiki zako walikuwa wanapunga upepo, lazima uzingatie ukweli huo, inaweza kuwa kwamba Mungu anakutenganisha na mahusiano hayo.

MASOMO YA ZIADA: 2 Wakorintho 6:14, 1 Wakorintho 15:33

UJUMBE MKUU: Wakati Mungu anamtakasa mtu, atashughulikia hasa mahusiano yake. Wakati mwingine kuinuliwa kutamaanisha kujitenga na wale ambao mnafanana lakini bado kwa Mungu, njia zenu ni tofauti sana.

SALA: Baba Mpenzi, Nakushukuru kwa ukweli huu. Asante kwa hekima ya kujua ni nani yuko katika maisha yangu kwa majira tu na ni nani lazima nimwachilie aende. Sitaruhusu kamwe mahusiano yangu yazibe njia ya hatima yangu ya Kiungu. Ninajisalimisha kwa uongozi na maelekezo Yako hata unaponiinua katika wito ulio nao kwa maisha yangu. Kwa jina la Yesu, Amina.

Matthew 10: 34-37 (MSG); Don’t think I’ve come to make life cozy. I’ve come to cut—make a sharp knife-cut between son and father, daughter and mother, bride and mother-in-law—cut through these cozy domestic arrangements and free you for God. Well-meaning family members can be your worst enemies. If you prefer father or mother over me, you don’t deserve me. If you prefer son or daughter over me, you don’t deserve me.

Sometimes, the people who love us the most can be the greatest hindrances to our godly destinies.

Out of care and concern, they can counsel you out of the plans God has for you because they do not understand the journey of faith.

A man may be called to ministry out of his family area to a remote place that does not have the conveniences of his present surroundings. It may be his family that will show him everything that is wrong with such a decision. If he is unstable, he may listen to their reasons above the convictions of the Spirit of God.

Our theme scripture makes this fact very clear when it tells us that well-meaning family members can be your worst enemies. They can effectively love you out of destiny.

I have also seen people that have gone to an early grave because of the love of their family members. This is usually when they are sick and dying and no one around them is ready to believe God for their healing but are happy to let them go, so they can ‘die surrounded by their loved ones.’

In life’s hardest moments and in decisions that pertain to God’s purpose for your life, you must have the wisdom to surround yourself with men and women of faith. Choose faith above ‘blind love and concern’.

FURTHER STUDY: Hebrews 10:39, 2 Corinthians 5:7

GOLDEN NUGGET: In life’s hardest moments and in decisions that pertain to God’s purpose for your life, you must have the wisdom to surround yourself with men and women of faith. Choose faith above ‘blind love and concern’.

PRAYER: Loving Father, I thank You for this truth. Thank You for the people that You surround me with, men and women of faith that remind me to stand and to stick to the course of purpose. I am stable in my understanding of the destiny that You have designed for me and will never allow to be swayed off my track. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

KUZUNGUKWA NA IMANI

Mtume Grace Lubega

Mathayo 10:34-37 (MSG); Usifikiri nimekuja kufanya maisha kuwa ya starehe. Nimekuja kukata– kukata kisu chenye ncha kali kati ya mwana na baba, binti na mama, bibi-arusi na mama mkwe–upanga unaopitia mipango hii ya nyumbani yenye kupendeza na kukuweka huru kwa ajili ya Mungu.

Wakati fulani, watu wanaotupenda zaidi wanaweza kuwa vizuizi vikuu zaidi kwa hatima zetu za kimungu.

Katika kuhusika na kujali, wanaweza kukushauri nje ya mipango ambayo Mungu amekuwekea kwa sababu hawaelewi safari ya imani.

Mtu anaweza kuitwa kwenye huduma nje ya eneo la familia yake hadi mahali pa mbali ambako hakuna mambo yanayofaa katika mazingira yake ya sasa. Huenda ikawa familia yake ndiyo itamwonyesha kila kitu kibaya na uamuzi huo. Ikiwa hana msimamo, anaweza kusikiliza sababu zao juu ya usadikisho wa Roho wa Mungu.

Andiko letu kuu linaweka ukweli huu wazi sana linapotuambia kwamba wanafamilia wenye nia njema wanaweza kuwa adui zako wabaya zaidi. Wanaweza kukupenda kwa ufanisi kutoka nje ya hatima.

Pia nimeona watu ambao wameenda kwenye kaburi la mapema kwa sababu ya upendo wa wanafamilia wao. Hii ni kwa kawaida wanapokuwa wagonjwa na kufa na hakuna mtu karibu nao aliye tayari kumwamini Mungu kwa ajili ya uponyaji wao lakini anafurahi kuwaachilia, ili ‘wafe wakiwa wamezungukwa na wapendwa wao.’

Katika nyakati ngumu sana za maisha na katika maamuzi yanayohusu kusudi la Mungu katika maisha yako, lazima uwe na hekima ya kuzungukwa na wanaume na wanawake wa imani. Chagua imani zaidi ya ‘upendo pofu na ujali’.

MASOMO YA ZIADA: Waebrania 10:39, 2 Wakorintho 5:7

UJUMBE MKUU: Katika nyakati ngumu sana za maisha na katika maamuzi yanayohusu kusudi la Mungu kwa maisha yako, lazima uwe na hekima ya kuzungukwa na wanaume na wanawake wa imani. Chagua imani juu ya ‘upendo pofu na ujali’.

SALA: Baba Mpenzi, Nakushukuru kwa kweli hii. Asante kwa watu unaonizunguka nao, wanaume na wanawake wa imani wanaonikumbusha kusimama na kushikamana katika njia ya kusudi.

There are many things that make some people too busy for God. These may be relationships, jobs, businesses or opportunities that come our way.

There is a man whose only excuse for not attending service is because he is too busy with his new business. It is his baby and as such requires constant parental attention.

There is a woman out there who cannot spend time in the presence of God because her job keeps her too busy. She wakes up too early and returns home too late to give her God a second thought.

Sometimes, when God is pruning us, He separates us from those things that take too much of our time while pushing Him out of our priorities.

The Lord must come first.

Never allow yourself to get too busy for God. Be deliberate about this. Do not build your faith around your schedules. Build your schedules around your faith. If something demands your time, always ask yourself if it comes at the cost of time that must be spent with God or in service to Him.

Your busy schedules did not shed their blood for you; they do not give you life,  God does.

His name be praised.

Kuna mambo mengi ambayo yanawafanya baadhi ya watu kuwa na shughuli nyingi kwa ajili ya Mungu. Haya yanaweza kuwa mahusiano, kazi, biashara au fursa zinazokuja kwetu.

Kuna mtu ambaye kisingizio cha pekee cha kutohudhuria ibada ni kwa sababu anashughulika sana na biashara yake mpya. Ni mtoto wake na hivyo anahitaji uangalifu wa mara kwa mara wa wazazi.

Kuna mwanamke huko nje ambaye hawezi kutumia muda katika uwepo wa Mungu kwa sababu kazi yake humfanya awe na shughuli nyingi sana. Huamka mapema sana na kurudi nyumbani akiwa amechelewa sana kumpatia Mungu wake wazo la pili.

Wakati fulani, Mungu anapotupogoa, hututenganisha na yale mambo yanayochukua muda wetu mwingi huku tukimsukuma nje ya vipaumbele vyetu.

Bwana lazima aje kwanza.

Usijiruhusu kamwe kuwa na shughuli nyingi kwa ajili ya Mungu. Kuwa na makusudi kuhusu jambo hili. Usijenge imani yako kulingana na ratiba zako. Jenga ratiba zako kulingana na imani yako. Ikiwa kitu kinadai wakati wako, jiulize kila wakati ikiwa kinakuja kwa gharama ya wakati ambao lazima utumike na Mungu au katika huduma kwake.

Ratiba zako za shughuli nyingi hazikumwaga damu yao kwa ajili yako; hazikupi uzima, Mungu ndiye anakupa.

Jina lake lihimidiwe.

UJUMBE MKUU: Usijenge imani yako kulingana na ratiba zako. Jenga ratiba zako kulingana na imani yako. Ikiwa kitu kinadai wakati wako, jiulize kila wakati ikiwa kinakuja kwa gharama ya wakati ambao lazima utumike na Mungu au katika huduma kwake.

SALA: Baba, Nakushukuru kwa neno hili. Una mawazo yangu. Ninakuweka mbele ya yote ninayofanya kwa sababu Wewe ndiye unayefaa zaidi. Ninakataa chochote kusimama katika njia ya kujitolea kwangu Kwako. Hii ni hadithi ya maisha yangu. Katika jina la Yesu, Amina.

Apostle Grace Lubega

Matthew 1:23 (KJV); Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.

The birth of Christ reminds us that God is with us.

As Christians, our greatest assurance is that we do not live Godless in this world. The creator of heaven and earth is with us and is for us.

Why are these convictions of Emmanuel so important?

In 2 Kings 18:7, the Bible says of King Hezekiah, “And the LORD was with him; and he prospered whithersoever he went forth”. It means that because God is with us, prosperity is our portion in Christ.

In Acts 10:38, the scriptures say of Christ, “How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.”

When God is with a man, that man does good everywhere he goes. The convictions of Emmanuel remind us that we are answers to people’s prayers.

Never live your life like a person who does not have God with him. In all your pursuits and labours, remind yourself that God is with you. He prospers you and makes you an answer to many. Hallelujah!

PRAYER: Loving Father, I thank You for this truth. I am not alone! I live my life fully aware of this truth. I serve and help those around me, not by my own strength but with the consciousness that You are with me. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

OKULUMIRIZIBWA KWA EMMANWERI

Omutume Grace Lubega

Matayo 1:23(KJV); Laba, omuwala atamanyi musajja aliba olubuto, era alizaala omwana wa bulenzi, Balimutuuma erinnya lye Emmanweri; eritegeezebwa nti Katonda ali naffe.

Katonda bw’abeera n’omuntu, omuntu akola bulungi buli gy’alaga. Okulumirizibwa kwa Emmanweri kutujjukiza nti tuli kya kuddamu eri essaala z’abantu.

Tobeeranga mu bulamu bwo ng’omuntu atalina Katonda wamu naye. Mu byonna by’ogoba ne by’olafuubanira, wejjukize nti Katonda ali naawe. Akuwanguzisa era akufuula eky’okuddamu eri abangi. Alleluya!

DHIMA ZA EMMANUELI

Mtume Grace Lubega

Mathayo 1:23 ( KJV); Tazama, bikira atachukua mimba, Naye atazaa mwana; Nao watamwita jina lake Imanueli; Yaani, Mungu pamoja nasi.

Kuzaliwa kwa Kristo kunatukumbusha kwamba Mungu yu pamoja nasi.

Kama Wakristo, hakikisho letu kuu ni kwamba hatuishi bila Mungu katika ulimwengu huu. Muumba wa mbingu na nchi yuko pamoja nasi na yuko kwa ajili yetu.

Kwa nini imani hizi za Emmanueli ni muhimu sana?

Katika 2 Wafalme 18:7, Biblia inasema hivi kuhusu Mfalme Hezekia, “Naye BWANA akawa pamoja naye, kila alikokwenda alifanikiwa; tena alimwasi mfalme wa Ashuru, wala hakumtumikia.” Ina maana kwamba kwa sababu Mungu yu pamoja nasi, mafanikio ni sehemu yetu katika Kristo.

Katika Matendo 10:38, maandiko yanasema juu ya Kristo, “jinsi Mungu alivyomtia mafuta kwa Roho Mtakatifu na nguvu: naye akazunguka huko na huko, akitenda kazi njema na kuponya wote walioonewa na Ibilisi; kwa maana Mungu alikuwa pamoja naye.”

Mungu anapokuwa na mwanadamu, mtu huyo hufanya mema kila mahali anapokwenda. Dhima za Emmanueli zinatukumbusha kwamba sisi ni majibu ya maombi ya watu.

Kamwe usiishi maisha yako kama mtu ambaye hana Mungu pamoja naye. Katika shughuli zako zote na kazi yako, jikumbushe kwamba Mungu yu pamoja nawe. Anakufanikisha na kukufanya kuwa jibu kwa wengi. Haleluya!
