Apostle Grace Lubega

Hebrews 12:16-17 (MSG); Watch out for the Esau syndrome: trading away God’s lifelong gift in order to satisfy a short-term appetite. You well know how Esau later regretted that impulsive act and wanted God’s blessing—but by then it was too late, tears or no tears.

Self-mastery requires that you gain control over your appetites. A lack of control over your appetites can greatly compromise your spiritual journey and the purposes God has for your life.

The scriptures reveal that Esau once returned home from the field, feeling hungry. He exchanged his birthright for some pottage to alleviate a short-lived hunger. With this act alone, he degraded his own inheritance and disqualified himself from receiving the blessing of the firstborn son (Genesis 25:29-34).

Esau epitomises the weakness of people who live at the mercy of their impulses. Our theme scripture calls this the Esau syndrome.

For such people, no urge to eat goes unattended to. No desire of the flesh passes by without being indulged. They are slaves to biology.

It is wisdom to tame the cravings of the body. You do not have to eat every time the urge to eat strikes you. Never let your body rule your spirit. Continually exercise control until the desires of the body are at the dictates of the spirit and not the other way round.

Hallelujah!

GOLDEN NUGGET: Self-mastery requires that you gain control over your appetites. A lack of control over your appetites can greatly compromise your spiritual journey and the purposes God has for your life.

PRAYER: Father, I thank You for this Word. Thank You for self-control, the fruit of Your Spirit. I am not at the mercy of my body because I rule my spirit. This wisdom places me in the right places at the right time in all things pertaining to Your purposes. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Abaebbulaniya 12:16-17 (MSG); Mwegendereze endwadde ya Esawu: okutunda ekirabo ekya Katonda eky’obulamu obw’olubeerera okusobola okukkusa olubuto olw’enjala ey’akaseera obuseera. Mukimanyi bulungi nga oluvannyuma bwe yejjusa ekikolwa kino nga ayagala okusikira omukisa gwa Katonda, n’agaanibwa-naye mu kaseera ako kyali kikeerezi, awali amaziga oba awatali.

Okubeera n’obukugu mu kwefuga kikwetaagisa okuba ng’olina obufuzi eri okuyaayaana kw’omubiri gwo. Obutaba na bufuzi eri okuyaayaana kw’omubiri gwo kiyinza okuleetawo okwekkiriranya eri olugendo lwo olw’omwoyo n’ebigendererwa Katonda by’alina ku bulamu bwo.

Ebyawandiikibwa biraga nti Esawu olumu yakomawo ewaka okuva mu nnimiro, nga muyala. N’awaanyisiganya obusika bwe okufuna eky’okulya okuggyawo enjala ey’akaseera akatono. Ku lw’ekikolwa kino kyokka, yatyoboola obusika bwe bwennyini era ne yeeletera okuba nga tasaanira kufuna obusika obw’omwana omubereberye (Olubereberye 25:29-34).

Esawu alaga obunafu obw’abantu ababeerawo nga tebasobola kwebeera mpulira ya mibiri gyabwe. Ekyawandikibwa kyaffe ekiguddewo kikiyita endwadde ya Esawu.

Eri abantu ng’abo, tewali njala gye bafuna ne batagikkusa. Teri kuyaayaana kwa mubiri kujja ne kuviiramu awo. Baddu eri obutonde bw’omubiri.

Gaba magezi okufuga okuyaayaana kw’omubiri. Tolina kulyanga buli kiseera w’owulira nga oyagala kulya. Tolekanga mubiri gwo kufuga mwoyo gwo. Weetendeke entakera mu kwefuga mpaka ng’okuyaayaana okw’omubiri kufugibwa omwoyo so ssi omubiri okufuga omwoyo.

UGONJWA WA ESAU

Mtume Grace Lubega

Waebrania 12:16-17 (MSG); Jihadhari na ugonjwa wa Esau; kufanya biashara na zawadi ya maisha ya Mungu ili kukidhi hamu ya muda mfupi. Unajua vizuri jinsi Esau baadaye alijuta kitendo hicho cha msukumo na alitaka Baraka za Mungu- lakini wakati huo ulikuwa umechelewa, machozi au bila machozi.

Kujitawala kunahitaji upate udhibiti wa hamu yako. Ukosefu wa udhibiti wa hamu yako unaweza kuathiri sana safari yako ya kiroho na makusudi ambayo Mungu anayo maishani mwako.

Maandiko yanaonyesha kuwa Esau wakati mmoja alirudi nyumbani kutoka uwanjani, akihisi njaa. Alibadilisha haki yake ya mzaliwa wa kwanza kwa chakula kidogo cha kupunguza njaa ya muda mfupi. Kwa kitendo hiki peke yake, alidhalilisha urithi wake mwenyewe na akajiondoa kutoka kwa Baraka ya mtoto wa kwanza (Mwanzo 25:29-34).

Esau ni mfano wa udhaifu wa watu wanaoishi kwa rehema za misukumo yao. Andiko letu kuu linauita ugonjwa wa Esau.

Kwa watu kama hawa, hakuna hamu ya kula ambayo haishughulikiwi. Hakuna hamu ya mwili inayopita bila kushawishiwa. Hao ni watumwa wa bayolojia.

Ni busara kudhibiti tamaa za mwili. Sio lazima ule kila wakati hamu ya kula inapokupata. Kamwe usiruhusu mwili wako utawale roho yako. Endelea kuudhibiti mpaka matakwa ya mwili yako kwenye maagizo ya roho na sio njia nyingine.

Haleluya!

MASOMO YA ZIADA: 1 Wakolosai 9:24-27, 2 Timotheo 1:7

UJUMBE MKUU: Kujitawala kunahitaji upate udhibiti wa hamu yako. Ukosefu wa udhibiti wa hamu yako unaweza kuathiri sana safari yako ya kiroho na makusudi ambayo Mungu anayo maishani mwako.

SALA: Baba, Ninakushukuru kwa neno hili. Asante kwa kujidhibiti, tunda la Roho wako. Siko katika rehema ya mwili wangu kwa sababu naitawala roho yangu. Hekima hii inaniweka katika sehemu sahihi kwa wakati unaofaa katika vitu vyote vinavyohusu makusudio yako. Katika jina la Yesu, Amina.
