UJUMBE WA JUMAPILI YA LEO - IMANI NYALAMOYO KAPINGA
Mara nyingi shetani amekuwa akitufanya tupoteze muda mwingi kuwahukumu na kuwasema wengine vibaya kwa makosa yao wanayofanya.
Halafu akatusahaulisha tusione makosa yetu wenyewe na tusijibidiishe kutafuta namna ya kutubu na kujirekebisha.
-Hivi tunakumbuka kweli kuwa kila mtu atahukumiwa kwa dhambi zake na si za mtu mwingine?
-Je ni kweli tumekuwa vipofu sana kiroho na kimwili tukasahau kuwa hata
sisi wenyewe tunakosea mara nyingi tu tena makosa yaleyale ambayo
tunayowasema wengine? na wala hatujishughulishi kutafuta namna ya
kujirekebisha.
Warumi 3-7
Wewe, rafiki, unayewahukumu wale
wanaofanya mambo kama hayo ambayo hata wewe pia unayafanya, je unadhani
utaiepa hukumu ya Mungu? Au labda unaudharau wema wake mkuu, uvumilivu
wake na saburi yake na umeshindwa kutambua kwamba wema wake huo una
shabaha ya kukuongoza upate kutubu?
Lakini unao ugumu na ukaidi wa
moyo, na hivyo unajilundikia adhabu kwa Siku ile ambayo ghadhabu ya
Mungu na hukumu zake za haki vitadhihirishwa. Siku hiyo Mungu atamlipa
kila mmoja kufuatana na matendo yake.

ASK
Therefore
I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and
it will be yours. -
Mark 11:24
BUT:
- We need to follow Gods instructions in order to receive the blessings:
- Are you sure that what you are today God wants you to be like that?
- If God says “Yes” who can say “No!” God works with an appointed in a given time.
- Do not rush, be blameless and walk before God, God will bless you and if God says “Yes!” We can’t say “No!”
- Remember our father Abraham;
Genesis12:1-3
“Now the Lord had said to Abram: “Get out of your country, From your family And
from your father’s house, To a land that I will show you. 2 I will make you a
great nation; I will bless you And make your name great; And you shall be a
blessing. 3 I will bless those who bless you, And I will curse him who curses
you; And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”
Maybe
God might be talking to you just like He did to Abraham.
God
might be telling you to leave your country and your people.
Maybe
the environment that you’re staying in is not suitable for your blessing; maybe
the people that are surrounding you are the ones blocking your blessings.
God
wants you to leave the place you are sitting in, God wants you to leave your
tradition and go to a place He want you to be because that is where He will
bless you.
When
God blesses you it means that whatsoever you touch will be well and all your
wishes will come true.
The
qualities that God considers when He wants to bless you:
God wants to bless you but He needs a pure heart. A person who had such a pure heart as David the son of Jesse.
When
God blesses He doesn’t care about your possession. He doesn’t care whether you
are rich or poor but He considers a pure heart.
You
need to be righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances
of the Lord blameless.”
When you are blessed it means that everything that you touch is also blessed.
When God blesses you He does not consider age. You are aged and maybe at this stage you have already given up, maybe people are laughing at you, remember there is someone who listens to you and He is looking for your pure heart.
Hence
God says that what you have today is not what God wants you to have; there are
things that are hidden in the darkness and He is about to release them.
Therefore Father, thank
you for all You have done, will do and are doing. I love You so
much. Now Father I ask that You help me keep everything in
perspective. In Jesus’ name … Amen!

“Speak, Lord, for your servant hears.”
DO WE KNOW WHEN GOD IS CALLING US?
- It is not an overnight event
- God reveals it to those chosen gradually over the years.
- BUT talents and gifts to serve others is a major sign of God’s calling,
- God’s Calling brings us a deep sense of fulfillment and happiness.
As one writer once wrote that: "We have different
gifts, according to the grace given us. If a man's gift is prophesying, let him
use it in proportion to his faith. If it is serving, let him serve; if it is
teaching, let him teach; if it is encouraging, let him encourage; if it is
contributing to the needs of others, let him give generously; if it is
leadership, let him govern diligently; if it is showing mercy, let him do it
cheerfully."
Because of our human
nature “it is easy to dismiss the voice of God when He speaks to us. We may
even turn it away and think we are just confusing it with something else. It is
so easy to pass it off as being something other than what it really is that we
delay hearing what God has to say to us and we delay God’s blessings on our
lives”
When
we read In First Samuel 3:7, “Now Samuel did not yet know the Lord, neither was
the word of the Lord yet revealed unto him.”
What
is this to our understanding? Does it
mean that Samuel did not know the Lord? Knowing the Lord is a very basic and
fundamental part of serving Him. Listening to God is not always easy, but it is
always rewarding. Listening means taking time to seek His will and focusing on
what He has to say. We will never find peace of heart until we take the time to
attune our attention on Him.
We
will never know what God is trying to tell us if we do not listen. There are
those out there who never listen to Him simply because they don’t want to. Let
us develop this a habit of saying “Speak, Lord, for your servant hears.”
Assumption
one:
Suppose Samuel had not listened to God when he heard Him call his name what then?
Assumption
two:
Suppose
he had just rolled over and gone back to sleep. He could just as easily have
chosen to ignore the calling of God, but he didn’t.
In
John 10, the Lord Jesus Christ said, “My sheep know my voice, and they follow
me.”
We
need to be ready because “God may be calling your name today, but for whatever
reason, you have not responded: continue to search God’s calling like Samuel.
For
some reason, you have chosen to tune Him out” remember what happened to Jonah;
We need to remember that, God does this
by calling each of us by name. It might
not be an audible voice in the night as it was for Samuel, but God does call
out our names to come and follow Him and make a difference in the world. To bring hope where there is no hope. To bring light to where there is
darkness. To build a better world
The
questions which we need to ask ourselves are:
- Do I seek to find God’s voice in the voices of those who know me and who love me?
- Do I take any criticism or concern as an opportunity to examine my motivations and find myself strengthened rather than weakened in accepting Gods calling?
