Apostle Grace Lubega

Hebrews 7:11 (KJV); If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law,) what further need was there that another priest should rise after the order of Melchisedec, and not be called after the order of Aaron?

The Melchizedek Priesthood is a better and superior order of the Priesthood to the Levitical one. The Melchizedek Priesthood achieved what the Levitical could not because, by it, Christ became the perfect atonement for our sins. The coming of Christ ended the Levitical Priesthood.

Under the new covenant,  priesthood is not based on physical ancestry. This also means that ministry is not hereditary in nature.

Sadly, in our day, there are ministers of the gospel who have a levitical perspective on ministry. 

I have known pastors who attempt to push their children into ministry as their successors and try to shape them accordingly, treating the priesthood as though it is a monarchy or an order of generational ancestry that has to be passed down through blood.

Oftentimes, this is done without teaching children the fundamental principles of how ministry is built.

While it is an honourable thing for a minister of the gospel to pass on a mantle to his seed, there is an order in God by which this is achieved.

Our children must know God for themselves, be taught by Him and have personal experiences of Him. The mere fact that a parent is a minister of the gospel is not a guarantee that their child is qualified to follow in his steps in ministry or in the priesthood.

Hallelujah!

FURTHER STUDY: Proverbs 22:6, Isaiah 54:13

GOLDEN NUGGET: Our children must know God for themselves, be taught by Him and have personal experiences of Him. The mere fact that a parent is a minister of the gospel is not a guarantee that their child is qualified to follow in his steps in ministry or in the priesthood.

PRAYER: Loving Father, we thank You for this revelation on Your order of Priesthood. We look beyond the levitical, to what we can do through our own acts and to what You have done through Christ. It is by this wisdom that we teach our children to seek You and know You, in Jesus’ name, Amen.

Abaheburaayo 7:11; Kuri nogira ngu okuhikiirizibwa kukatungwa ahabw’obunyamurwa bw’ekileevi, (ahakuba omu butegyeki obwo nimwo abantu baaheereirwe Ebiragiro) n’enki ekyakwetengyeise ondiijo munyamurwa kwimuka ow’omuringo gwa Melikizedeki, ateetsirwe omu muringo gwa Arooni?

Obunyamurwa bwa Melikizedeki n’obunyamurwa burungi kandi nibukira ahabw’ekileevi. Obunyamurwa bwa Melikizedeki bukakora eki obw’ekileevi bwabaire butarikubaasa ahabw’okuba ahabw’abwo, Kristo akaba empongano ehikiriire y’ebibi byaitu. Okwiija kwa Kristo kukahendera obunyamurwa bw’ekileevi.

Omu ndagaano ensya, obunyamurwa tiburikugyendera aha kusikira ab’omubiri abaira. Eki nakyo nikimanyisa ngu obuheereza tibukusikirwa omu buhangwa.

Eky’obusaasi, omu biro byaitu, hariho abaheereza b’engiri abaine enteekateeka y’ekileevi aha buheereza.

Manyire abariisa abarikugyezaho kutsindika abaana baabo omu buheereza nk’abarikubaza omu bigyere kandi bagyezaho kubombeka batyo, barikutwaara obunyamurwa nk’obugabe nari nk’engyenderwaho y’obusingye bwabaira oburikusikirwa omu shagama.

Obwiire obwingi, eki nikikorwa haba hatabeireho okwegyesa abaana engyenderwaho nkuru ez’oku obuheereza buri kwombekwa.

N’obu kiri kirungi omuheereza w’engiri kuheereza omunagiro gwe ruzaaro ye, hariho obuteeka omuri Ruhanga ahu eki kirikuhikirizibwa.

Abaana baitu bashemereire kwemanyira Ruhanga, kwegyesibwa we n’okugira akakwaate nawe. Omuzaire yaba ari omuheereza w’engiri tikirikumanyisa ngu omwaana we ahikire kumukuratira omu bigyere bye omu buheereza nari omu bunyamurwa.

Hallelujah!

SHOMA NEEBI: Enfumu 22:6, Isaaya 54:13

EZAABU: Abaana baitu bashemereire kwemanyira Ruhanga, kwegyesibwa we n’okugira akakwaate nawe. Omuzaire yaba ari omuheereza w’engiri tikirikumanyisa ngu omwaana we ahikire kumukuratira omu bigyere bye omu buheereza nari omu bunyamurwa.

OKUSHABA: Taata omukundwa, Nitukusiima ahabw’okushuuruurirwa kw’obutegyeki bw’obunyamurwa bwaawe. Nitureeba kukira ahabw’ekileevi, kukira ahabiturikukora omu bikorwa byaitu kandi tureeba ebi okozire omuri Kristo. Nahabw’obwengye obu ngu nitwegyesa abaana baitu kukusherura n’okukumanya, omu eiziina rya Yesu, Amiina.

Abaebbulaniya 7:11 (KJV); Kale okutuukirira singa kwaliwo lwa bwakabona obw’Ekileevi (kubanga abantu baaweebwa amateeka mu biro byabwo), kiki ekyetaaza nate kabona ow’okubiri okuyimuka mu ngeri ya Merukizeddeeki, n’atabalirwa mu ngeri ya Alooni?

Engeri y’obwakabona bwa Merukizeddeeki esingako era esukkuluma ku ngeri y’obwakabona bw’Ekileevi. Obwakabona bwa Merukizeddeeki bwafuna ekyo obw’Ekileevi kye bwali butasobola kufuna kubanga, ku lwabwo, Kristo yafuuka ekiweebwayo ekituukiridde ku lw’ebibi byaffe. Okujja kwa Kristo kwakomya obwakabona bw’Ekileevi.

Wansi w’Endagaano Empya, obwakabona tebuyimiridde ku nsikirano ez’omubiri. Era kino kitegeeza nti obuweereza ssi bwa nsikirano.

Eky’ennaku, mu nnaku zaffe, waliwo abaweereza b’enjiri abalina endaba ey’Ekileevi ku buweereza.

Ntegedde ku basumba abagezaako okusindiikiriza abaana babwe mu buweereza nga babaddira mu bigere ne bagezaako okubabumba nga bwe kisaanide, ng’obwakabona babuyisa nga obw’ensikirano oba nga obw’enkola ey’obusika obw’emirembe obuteekeddwa okweyongerayo nga buyitira mu musaayi.

Ebiseera ebisinga, kino kikolebwa awatali kusomesa baana ennono ez’enkizo ez’engeri gye bazimbamu obuweereza.

Wadde nga kya kitiibwa omuweereza w’enjiri okuwaayo omunagiro eri ensigo ye, waliwo engeri mu Katonda kino bwe kifunibwa.

Abaana baffe bateekedwa okumanya Katonda ku lwabwe nga bbo, basomesebwe Ye era babeere n’ensisinkano eza ssekinnoomu ku Ye. Olw’okuba ng’omuzade muweereza wa njiri ssi bukakafu nti omwana we agwaanidde okudda mu bigere bye eby’obuweereza oba mu eby’obwakabona.

Alleluya!

AKASUMBI KA ZAABU: Abaana baffe bateekedwa okumanya Katonda ku lwabwe nga bbo, basomesebwe Ye era babeere n’ensisinkano eza ssekinnoomu ku Ye. Olw’okuba ng’omuzade muweereza wa njiri ssi bukakafu nti omwana we agwaanidde okudda mu bigere bye eby’obuweereza oba mu bw’obwakabona.

ESSAALA: Kitaffe Omwagalwa, Tukwebaza ku lw’okubikkulirwa kuno ku ngeri ey’obwakabona. Tutunula okusukka ku nkola y’Ekileevi, okudda ku bye tusobola okukola nga tuyita mu bikolwa byaffe na ku ki ky’okoze okuyita mu Kristo. Kiri ku lw’amagezi gano nti tusomesa abaana baffe okukunoonya n’okukumanya, mu linnya erya Yesu, Amiina.

KUPITISHA JOHO LA UONGOZI

Mtume Grace Lubega

Waebrania 7:11 (KJV); Basi, kama ukamilifu ulikuwapo kwa ukuhani wa Lawi; (maana watu wale waliipata sheria kwa huo); kulikuwa na haja gani tena ya kuhani mwingine ainuke, kwa mfano wa Melkizedeki, wala asihesabiwe kwa mfano wa Haruni?

Ukuhani wa Melkizedeki ni utaratibu bora na bora zaidi wa Ukuhani kwa ule wa Lawi. Ukuhani wa Melkizedeki ulifanikisha kile ambacho wa Lawi haukuweza kwa sababu, kwa huo, Kristo alifanyika upatanisho kamili kwa ajili ya dhambi zetu. Kuja kwa Kristo kulimaliza Ukuhani wa Lawi.

Chini ya agano jipya, ukuhani hautegemei ukoo wa kimwili. Hii ina maana pia kwamba huduma si ya urithi katika asili.

Cha kusikitisha ni kwamba, katika siku zetu, kuna wahudumu wa injili ambao wana mtazamo wa Lawi kuhusu huduma.

Nimewajua wachungaji wanaojaribu kuwasukuma watoto wao katika huduma kama warithi wao na kujaribu kuwatengeneza ipasavyo, wakichukulia ukuhani kana kwamba ni utawala wa kifalme au utaratibu wa ukoo wa vizazi ambao unapaswa kupitishwa kupitia damu.

Mara nyingi, hii inafanywa bila kuwafundisha watoto kanuni za kimsingi za jinsi huduma inavyojengwa.

Ingawa ni jambo la heshima kwa mhudumu wa injili kupitisha joho la uongozi kwa uzao wake, kuna utaratibu katika Mungu ambao unafanikiwa.

Watoto wetu lazima wamjue Mungu wenyewe, wafundishwe Naye na wawe na uzoefu wa kibinafsi Kwake. Ukweli tu kwamba mzazi ni mhudumu wa injili si hakikisho kwamba mtoto wao anastahili kufuata hatua zake katika huduma au katika ukuhani.

Haleluya!

MASOMO YA ZIADA: Mithali 22:6, Isaya 54:13

UJUMBE MKUU: Watoto wetu lazima wamjue Mungu wenyewe, wafundishwe Naye na wawe na tajriba ya kibinafsi Kwake. Ukweli tu kwamba mzazi ni mhudumu wa injili si hakikisho kwamba mtoto wao anastahili kufuata hatua zake katika huduma au katika ukuhani.

SALA: Baba Mpenzi, Tunakushukuru kwa ufunuo huu juu ya utaratibu Wako wa Ukuhani. Tunatazama zaidi ya mambo ya lawi, kwa kile tunachoweza kufanya kupitia matendo yetu wenyewe na kwa yale ambayo umefanya kupitia Kristo. Ni kwa hekima hii kwamba tunawafundisha watoto wetu kukutafuta na kukujua Wewe, katika jina la Yesu Kristo, Amina.
