<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Yohana 3: 16-17</b> “<i>Kwa maana jinsi hii
 Mungu aliupenda ulimwengu, hata akamtoa Mwanawe pekee, ili kila mtu 
amwaminiye asipotee, bali awe na uzima wa milele. Maana Mungu hakumtuma 
Mwana ulimwenguni ili auhukumu ulimwengu, bali ulimwengu uokolewe katika
 yeye</i>.”</span></blockquote>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><span style="font-size: large;">Mungu anakupenda sana, anajua jinsi unavyoenenda na amemtuma Mwana 
wake wa pekee, Yesu afe msalabani kwa ajili ya ukombozi wako. Haupaswi 
tena kuendelea kuishi dhambini, neema ya wokovu imefunuliwa na 
yapatikana bure kwa kumkiri na kumwamini Yesu.

kuzipata baraka za Mungu kama hauna ushirika naye, na pia huwezi 
kushinda dhambi bila msaada wa Mungu. Kama upo tayari kumpa Yesu maisha 
yako, sali sala hii kwa kumaanisha kutoka moyoni.

makosa yangu na kuwa siwezi peke yangu. Naomba uingie ndani ya moyo 
wangu, uondoe kiu ya dhambi, unisamehe makosa yangu yote, ufute jina 
langu kwenye kitabu cha mauti, na uliandike kwenye kitabu cha uzima. 
Nimeamua kukufuata wewe na kujitoa kwako siku zote za maisha yangu. 
Nisaidie niweze kutembea nawewe daima.”</i></span></blockquote>

KWA NINI SI MAPENZI YA MUNGU TUWE MASKINI?

Yesu Kristo aliposema “Heri walio maskini wa roho …….”Alikuwa ana maana ya kusema ‘Heri walio wahitaji wa mambo ya rohoni; maana ufalme wa mbinguni ni wao. Ndiyo maana aliongeza kusema, “Heri wenye njaa na kiu ya haki; maana hao watashibishwa"(Mathayo 5:6).</span><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; background-color: white; font-family: 'Open Sans'; font-size: 13px; line-height: 24px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="more" style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; color: #990000; font-family: 'Open Sans'; font-size: 13px; line-height: 24px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease; vertical-align: baseline;"></a><span style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: medium; line-height: 24px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease; vertical-align: baseline;"><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Mtu aliye maskini wa mambo ya mwili ni yule aliye mhitaji wa mambo ya mwili. Na mambo ya mwilini ninayoyasema ni mavazi, chakula na mahali pa kulala. Yesu Kristo hakusema heri wale walio na mahitaji ya chakula, mavazi, afya na malazi.<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Ninaposema mahitaji ya mwili usije ukachanganya na matendo ya mwili yaliyoandikwa katika Wagalatia 5:19-21 ambayo ni uasherati, uchafu, ufisadi, ibada ya sanamu, uchawi, uadui, ugomvi, wivu, hasira, fitina, faraka, uzushi, husuda na ulevi. Mimi siyazungumzii hayo ninaposema juu ya mahitaji ya mwili. Mahitaji ya mwili ninayoyasema ni mavazi, chakula, nyumba na matibabu.<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Kwa hiyo si sawa kabisa kwa mtu kuhalalisha umaskini wa mwili, yaani ukosefu wa chakula, mavazi, matibabu na nyumba, kwa kutumia maneno ya Bwana Yesu Kristo yaliyo katika Mathayo 5:3:<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Nataka kurudia tena; si mapenzi ya Mungu mtu awe maskini.<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Unaweza ukaniuliza na kusema, “Bwana Mwakasege kama si mapenzi ya Mungu mtu awe maskini, mbona basi kuna matajiri na maskini, je! Mungu hakuwaumba wote?<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Ni kweli kwani hata imeandikwa katika Mithali 22:2, kuwa “Tajiri na maskini hukutana pamoja; Bwana ndiye aliyewaumba wote”. Lakini fahamu ya kuwa ingawa matajiri na maskini waliopo wote waliumbwa na Mungu; tangu mwanzo wa uumbaji Mungu hakuyaweka matabaka haya mawili.<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Hapo mwanzo Mungu alipomuumba mtu, hakuweka ndani yake utajiri na umaskini pamoja. Wala hakuumba watu wengine wawe matajiri na wengine wawe maskini.<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Tunafahamu ya kuwa mtu aliumbwa kwa mfano wa Mungu na kwa sura ya Mungu. Na naamini ya kuwa utakubaliana nami nikisema Mungu wetu si maskini kwa hiyo hatukuumbwa kwa mfano wa kimaskini wala sura ya kimaskini.<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Kwa nini nasema na kusisitiza ya kuwa si mapenzi ya Mungu tuwe maskini?<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Ninazo sababu nne ambazo ningependa kukushirikisha:<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Mungu ndiye atupaye nguvu za kupata utajiri<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />“ Bali utamkumbuka Bwana , Mungu wako, maana ndiye akupaye NGUVU ZA KUPATA UTAJIRI; ili alifanye imara agano lake alilowapa baba zako, kama hivi leo” (Kumb. 8:18).<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Si mapenzi ya Mungu tuwe maskini kwa kuwa yeye mwenyewe ndiye atupaye nguvu ili tupate utajiri! Kama basi Mungu anatupa nguvu za kupata utajiri, ina maana ni wazi kwamba Mungu hapendi tuwe maskini wa mambo ya mwilini.<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Lakini fahamu ya kuwa si matajiri wote waliopo duniani wameupata utajiri kutokana na nguvu walizopewa na Mungu. Wengi wamepata utajiri kwa njia ya dhuluma. Na ndiyo maana sehemu nyingi katika Biblia matajiri wa jinsi hiyo wamekemewa. Soma Amosi 5:11, 12. Kwa sababu hii Mungu hayuko upande wa matajiri hawa. Hii pia haimaanishi kuwa Mungu yuko upande wa KILA maskini aliopo duniani. La hasha! Mungu yuko upande wa yule ayafanyaye mapenzi yake awe tajiri au maskini (Mathayo 7:21)<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Watu wengi wametajirika kwa njia ya rushwa na kutokusimamia haki pamoja na uchoyo. Na hii si sawa hata mbele za Mungu. Ni dhambi zilizo wazi kabisa. Na wote wafanyayo hayo wanahitaji kutubu!<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Ngoja nikueleze jambo muhimu: Mungu anapokupa nguvu za kupata utajiri, anakupa akiwa na lengo na kusudi muhimu.<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Ni lengo gani hilo?<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Imeandikwa, “………. Ili alifanye imara agano lake alilowapa baba zako, kama hivi leo”<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Na Yesu Kristo alisema, “ ……. Kikombe hiki ni AGANO JIPYA KATIKA DAMU YANGU, inayomwagika kwa ajili yenu” (Luka 22:20).<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Mungu akikupa nguvu za kupata utajiri ni kwa ajili ya kulifanya imara agano lake katika damu ya Yesu Kristo. Na hii ina maana utajiri utakaokuwa nao kutoka kwa Mungu ni kwa kueneza injili! Ni kwa ajili ya kueneza habari njema ya ukombozi kutokana na dhambi, mauti, magonjwa na umaskini. Habari njema hii inatakiwa kuenezwa kwa maneno na kwa matendo.<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Kwa kuwa tu kuna matajiri wasio wa haki basi haimaanishi kuwa matajiri wa haki hawapo. Ni budi tuweze kutofautisha utajiri ulio wa haki na utajiri usio wa haki.<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Mungu ndiye atufundishaye kupata faida<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Mungu wetu tunayemwabudu na kumtumikia katika Kristo Yesu si Mungu wa hasara bali Mungu wa faida. Imeandikwa hivi;<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />“ Bwana, Mkombozi wako, Mtakatifu wa Israeli, asema hivi;Mimi ni Bwana, Mungu wako, nikufundishaye ili upate faida, nikuongozaye katika njia ikupasayo kuifuata”(Isaya 48:17).<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Ndiyo maana kila mtu ndani yake ameumbiwa kupenda kufundishwa ili apate faida katika mambo anayoyafanya. Mungu akikufundisha kupata faida; njia utakayotumia kupata faida itakuwa njia ya haki. Na faida hiyo haitakuwa kwa ajili yako mwenyewe, bali utawashirikisha na wengine pia faida hiyo .<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Watu wengine kwa kutokuwa wavumilivu, na kutokujali mafundisho ya Mungu; wameamua kujipatia faida kwa kuwadhulumu, kuwakandamiza na kuwanyonya wengine. Na inasikitisha jinsi wanavyomshirikisha Mungu katika faida najisi namna hiyo waposema ya kuwa ni Mungu aliyewasaidia ‘kudhulumu na kunyonya’. Ni wazi ya kuwa Mungu hakuwasaidia kupata faida kwa njia ya udhalimu. <br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Si mapenzi ya Mungu tuwe maskini, ndiyo maana anatufundisha ili tupate faida ya halali. Kwa ajili hiyo imeandikwa; “Mwibaji asiibe tena; bali afadhali afanye juhudi, akitenda kazi iliyo nzuri kwa mikono yake mwenyewe, apate kuwa na kitu cha kumgawia mhitaji” (Waefeso 4:28).<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Je! Si jambo la kushukuru hili, la kuwa na Mungu ambaye hapendi tupate hasara?<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Kama Mungu asingekuwa anapenda tufanikiwe katika mahitaji yetu ya mwili, basi ingeandikwa wazi katika Biblia. Lakini badala yake naona maneno kama yafuatavyo; “Mpenzi, naomba ufanikiwe katika mambo YOTE na kuwa na afya yako, kama vile roho yako ifanikiwavyo” (3Yohana 1:2).<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Kwa maneno mengine anatuombea ya kuwa kwa kadri roho inavyofanikiwa basi tufanikiwe vivyo hivyo katika mahitaji ya mwili – yaani tuwe na chakula, mavazi, n.k.<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Vitu vyote vyema ni mali ya Bwana, na vyote vya Bwana ni vyetu ndani ya Kristo<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Katika Zaburi 24:1 imeandikwa;“Nchi na vyote viijazavyo ni mali ya Bwana; Dunia na wote wakaao ndani yake”<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Na pia ukisoma katika Hagai 2:8 unaona imeandikwa hivi “Fedha ni mali yangu, na dhahabu ni mali yangu, asema Bwana wa majeshi”<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Ngoja nikuulize swali; Je! unadhani vitu vyote hivi Bwana amemwekea nani? Unadhani alimwekea shetani na watu wanyonyaji wachache?<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />La hasha!<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Mungu aliviweka vitu hvi vyote na mali hii yote kwa ajili ya watu wake wote, ili itumike katika usawa. Kwa nini? Kwa kuwa Mungu hapendi watu wake wawe maskini. Ndiyo maana mtu alipoumbwa aliwekwa awe wakili wa mali yote ya Mungu hapa duniani. <br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Utajiri uliomo duniani umetawaliwa na watu wachache na nchi chache siku hizi kwa sababu ya dhambi za uchoyo, ubinafsi, uonevu,unyonyaji, unyang’anyi na dhuluma zilizoingia ndani ya mwanadamu. <br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Na hii imefanya watu wengine kufikiri ya kuwa Mungu ndiye aliyegawa matabaka haya mawili, ambavyo si kweli. Na si vizuri kumsingizia Mungu katika jambo ambalo mwanadamu mwenyewe amejiletea uharibufu.<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Yesu Kristo alikuwa maskini ili sisi tuwe matajiri<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />“ Maana mmejua neema ya Bwana wetu Yesu Kristo, jinsi alivyokuwa maskini kwa ajili yenu, ingawa alikuwa tajiri, ili kwamba ninyi mpate kuwa matajiri kwa umaskini wake” (2 Wakorintho 8:9). <br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Je! unafahamu kwa nini Yesu Kristo aliamua kuwa maskini? Ni “…….. ili kwamba ninyi mpate kuwa MATAJIRI kwa umaskini wake”.<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Najua kuna wengine watashangaa kuusoma mstari huu; lakini ndivyo ilivyo.<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Nimewahi kusikia mkristo mmoja akisema: “ Mimi ni maskini kwa kuwa Yesu Kristo alikuwa maskini”.<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Na mwingine alisema; “ Napenda kuwa maskini kwa kuwa Yesu Kristo alikuwa maskini”.<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Nadhani kuwa kuna wakristo wengi ambao wana mawazo kama haya. Ni kweli kwamba Yesu Kristo alipokuwa hapa duniani alikuwa maskini. Lakini hakuwa maskini ili sisi tuwe maskini; bali alikuwa maskini ili sisi tuwe matajiri! Kama alikuwa maskini ili sisi tuwe maskini kama wengine wanavyodhani, basi kazi hiyo haina faida kwetu. Lakini Yesu Kristo asifiwe kwa kuwa alikuwa maskini ili sisi tuwe MATAJIRI.<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Na ndiyo maana alisema katika Luka 4:18a ya kuwa; “Roho wa Bwana yu juu yangu, kwa maana amenitia mafuta kuwahubiri MASKINI habari njema.”<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Je! kuna habari njema kwa maskini zaidi ya kumwondoa katika umaskini wake?<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Injili ni habari njema. Na injili ni uweza wa Mungu uuletao wokovu kwa kila aaminiye (Warumi 1:16). Kuokoka si kuenda tu mbinguni; bali kuokoka maana yake ni uokolewe usiende motoni bali uende mbinguni ukifa, PAMOJA na kuokolewa kutoka kwenye matatizo ukiwa hapa duniani ambayo ni pamoja na umaskini.<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Petro aliposema “Bwana niokoe” alipokuwa anazama katika maji unafikiri alikuwa anataka wakati huo aokoke aende mbinguni? La hasha! Yeye Petro alitaka aokoke ASIZAME KATIKA MAJI. Na Yesu akasikia kilio chake akamwokoa. Hivi leo kuna watu wengi mijini na vijijini wanalia Yesu awaokoe kutokana na njaa, kukosa mavazi, magonjwa, maonezi, nakadhalika. Kanisa kama mwili wa Kristo linatakiwa kuwa mstari wa mbele kuwasaidia watu hao, kwa kuwa kazi hii ni sehemu ya utume wake. <br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Wakristo wengine utawasikia wakisema; hapa duniani hawahitaji kitu bali thawabu yao wataipata mbinguni. Lakini matamshi ya namna hii yanaeleza ukweli nusu na usiokamilika. Kuwa mkristo kuna thawabu duniani na kuna thawabu mbinguni. <br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Kama hakuna thawabu yoyote tunayoipata tukiwa hapa duniani kwa kumfuata Yesu Kristo; basi ukristo wetu hauna maana na hauna msaada wowote kwa mwanadamu. Ukristo usiotatua matatizo ya mwanadamu ya kila siku, ni ukristo usio na uhai.<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Mtume Petro naye aliwahi kusumbuliwa sana na jambo hili, hata ikabidi amuulize Bwana Yesu.<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />“Ndipo Petro akajibu, akamwambia, tazama, sisi tumeacha vyote tukakufuata, TUTAPATA NINI BASI?” (Mathayo 19:27)<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />“Yesu akasema, Amini, nawaambiaeni, hakuna mtu aliyeacha nyumba, au ndugu waume, au ndugu wake, au mama, au baba, au watoto, au mashamba, kwa ajili yangu, na kwa ajili ya Injili, ila atapewa MARA MIA SASA WAKATI HUU, nyumba, na ndugu waume, na ndugu wake, na mama, na watoto, na mashamba, pamoja na udhia; na katika ulimwengu ujao uzima wa milele” (Marko 10:29,30).<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Majibu haya ya Bwana Yesu, yanazidi kutudhihirishia ya kwamba si mapenzi ya Mungu tuwe maskini. Yesu Kristo ameeleza wazi kabisa ya kuwa atakayemwamini na kufuata maagizo hayo atapata MARA MIA SASA WAKATI HUU akiwa bado duniani. Na kati ya vitu atakavyopewa ni pamoja na nyumba na mashamba!<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Ni kweli Bwana Yesu Kristo alipokuwa hapa duniani alikuwa maskini, lakini baada ya kufufuka alirudishiwa utajiri wake. Ndiyo maana Mtume Paulo anazungumzia juu ya “….. utajiri wake Kristo usiopimika”. (Waefeso 3:8). Na katika Wafilipi 4:19 tunasoma hivi; “Na Mungu wangu atawajazeni kila mnachokihitaji kwa kadri ya utajiri wake, katika utukufu, ndani ya Kristo Yesu”.<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Kumbuka ya kuwa; Yesu Kristo alichukua dhambi zetu na magonjwa yetu , na kwa kupigwa kwake sisi tumepona (Isaya 53:5; Mathayo 8:16,17; 1Petro 2:24). Na kwa kujua hili kanisa linajihusisha na kuombea wagonjwa na kutoa huduma za afya kwa wagonjwa.<br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Kumbuka ya kuwa; Yesu Kristo alichukua dhambi zetu na akafanyika dhambi kwa ajili yetu, “ Ili sisi tupate kuwa haki ya Mungu katika Yeye” (2Wakorintho 5:21). Na kwa kujua hili kanisa linahubiri habari za ondoleo la dhambi kwa yeyote atakayemwamini Kristo. <br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" /><br style="-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.5s ease;" />Kumbuka ya kuwa; Yesu Kristo alikuwa maskini, ingawa alikuwa tajiri, ili kwa umaskini wake sisi tupate kuwa matajiri (2 Wakorintho 8:9). Na kwa kujua hili kanisa linajihusisha na miradi mbalimbali ya kimaendeleo ili mtu aondokane na umaskini.</span>

The Bible teaches us that we are blessed not just so that we can feel good, not just so we can be happy and comfortable, but so that we will bless others. God told Abraham in Genesis 12:2, “I will bless you ... and you will be a blessing” (NIV). This is the first law of blessing: It must flow outwardly.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #202020; font-family: normal, 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.75; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizelegibility;">
How do you bless others? By serving a need, whether it is physical or emotional support, financial help, or practical advice. "Forget yourselves long enough to lend a helping hand" (Philippians 1:4 MSG).</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #202020; font-family: normal, 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.75; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizelegibility;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit;">2. When we bless others, God takes care of our needs.</strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #202020; font-family: normal, 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.75; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizelegibility;">
God promises that if we will concentrate on blessing others, he’ll take care of our needs. There’s almost nothing that God won’t do for the person who really wants to help other people. In fact, God guarantees this blessing. In Luke 18, Jesus says, “I guarantee this. Anyone who gives up anything for the kingdom of God will certainly receive many times more in this life and will receive eternal life in the next world to come.”</div>

When you care about helping other people, God assumes responsibility for your problems. And that’s a real blessing, for he’s much better at handling your difficulties than you are.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #202020; font-family: normal, 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.75; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizelegibility;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit;">3. Our blessings to others will come back on us.</strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #202020; font-family: normal, 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.75; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizelegibility;">
The more you bless other people and the more you help others, the more God blesses your life. Luke 6:38 tells us, “Give away your life; you’ll find life given back, but not merely given back — given back with bonus and blessing” (MSG). You cannot out-give God. The more you try to bless other people in the world around you, the more God says, “I’m going to pour blessings out on you. We’ll play a little game here. Let’s see who will win. Let’s see who can give the most. The more you bless others, the more I’m going to bless you in return.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #202020; font-family: normal, 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.75; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizelegibility;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit;">4. The more we</strong><strong style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit;">’</strong><strong style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit;">re blessed by God, the more he expects us to help others.</strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #202020; font-family: normal, 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.75; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizelegibility;">
Jesus said it this way in Luke 12: “Much is required from the person to whom much is given; much more is required from the person to whom much more is given” (GNT). We are blessed to be a blessing.</div>

Fikiria jinsi maamuzi haya mawili unayopaswa kufanya yanavyoweza kukuathiri. Kwanza: Wewe huchagua kushirikiana na nani? Kwa nini hilo ni muhimu? Methali iliyoongozwa na roho ya Mungu inasema: “Anayetembea na watu wenye hekima atakuwa na hekima, lakini anayeshirikiana na wajinga atapatwa na mabaya.” (<a href="http://wol.jw.org/sw/wol/bc/r13/lp-sw/2004323/19/0" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: subpixel-antialiased; -webkit-user-select: auto !important; color: #4477a1; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none;">Methali 13:20</a>) Yaani, mwishowe tutakuwa kama wale tunaoshirikiana nao—wenye hekima au wajinga.

Hiyo ni kweli, lakini mengi zaidi yanahusika. Unapotazama kipindi cha televisheni, kusikiliza muziki, kusoma hadithi, kwenda kwenye sinema, au kutumia vituo fulani katika Intaneti, unashirikiana na watu. Ikiwa ushirika huo unakusudiwa kutosheleza tamaa za kijeuri na kingono au unakutia moyo utumie dawa za kulevya, kunywa kupita kiasi, au kufanya jambo lingine lolote linalovunja kanuni za Biblia, unashirikiana na mtu “asiye na akili,” anayetenda kana kwamba Yehova hayuko.—<a href="http://wol.jw.org/sw/wol/bc/r13/lp-sw/2004323/20/0" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: subpixel-antialiased; -webkit-user-select: auto !important; color: #4477a1; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none;">Zaburi 14:1</a>.</span></div>

Pengine unahisi kwamba hutapatwa na madhara yoyote kwa kutupia jicho kituo fulani cha ponografia kwenye Intaneti. Mtume Paulo anakwambia kwamba umekosea! Anasema: “Mashirika mabaya huharibu tabia nzuri.” (<a href="http://wol.jw.org/sw/wol/bc/r13/lp-sw/2004323/21/0" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: subpixel-antialiased; -webkit-user-select: auto !important; color: #4477a1; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none;">1 Wakorintho 15:33</a>) Inasikitisha kwamba tabia za vijana wengi Wakristo wenye kutegemeka zimeharibiwa kwa kuchagua mashirika yasiyofaa.

Ikiwa cheti cha shule ya sekondari kinaweza kukusaidia kupata kazi inayofaa, ni vema. Ikiwa unahitaji mazoezi zaidi baada ya shule ya sekondari, unaweza kuzungumzia jambo hilo na wazazi wako.

Huenda wengine hata wakafikiri kwamba wanalishwa vizuri. Lakini ikiwa wanafikiri hivyo, hiyo ni kwa sababu wanalishwa “hekima ya ulimwengu” isiyofaa ambayo inatia ndani ufuatiaji wa vitu vya kimwili, udadisi wa kisayansi, maoni kuhusu maadili, na kadhalika. Wengine huhisi kwamba “hekima” hiyo ya kisasa hufanya mafundisho ya Biblia yaonekane kuwa ya kizamani.

Yaelekea vijana hao wanafikiri kwamba vijana wa ulimwengu hawasumbuliwi na lolote, wanafurahia maisha. Wanasahau kwamba vijana hao wametengwa na Yehova.

Ninawezaje kushinda dhambi katika maisha yangu ya kikristo?

2:46 AM 0

<strong>Swali: "Ninawezaje kushinda dhambi katika maisha yangu ya kikristo?"<br /><br /> Jibu: </strong> Biblia inazungumzia juu ya vitu hivi tulivyonavyo ili tushinde maisha yetu ya dhambi:<br />
<br />
(1) Roho Mtakatifu – kipawa kimojachapo ambacho Mungu ametupa (kanisa lake) kwa ajili ya kuwa na ushindi katika maisha ya kikristo ndani ya Roho Mtakatifu. Mungu anatofautisha mtendo ya mwili na matunda ya Roho Mtakatifu katika wagalatia 5:16-25. katika andiko hilo tunashauriwa kutembea katika uwepo wa Roho Mtakatifu. “waumini wote tayari wamejazwa na Roho Mtakatifu”,lakini hapa tunasisitizwa kupatia nafasi Roho Mtakatifu atutawale na kutuongoza. Hii ina maana ya kuwa tusikilize sauti yake tusije tukatenda mapenzi yetu wenyewe.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7g4sk65Q6julRf-MeWwCDK72xPk3a7ogGI-Y6gHVepOe3yxnekPpIaCtYX4DuD3LgmQESfF7_k60cSgy5iElUATzpjYJSKBxdz6g-Uiua6rRO4p1O4Ptw-9fuHRpVzsx9YnqtJEQxZNE/s1600/imagesUGVJOO13.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7g4sk65Q6julRf-MeWwCDK72xPk3a7ogGI-Y6gHVepOe3yxnekPpIaCtYX4DuD3LgmQESfF7_k60cSgy5iElUATzpjYJSKBxdz6g-Uiua6rRO4p1O4Ptw-9fuHRpVzsx9YnqtJEQxZNE/s1600/imagesUGVJOO13.jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
Tofauti ambayo Roho Mtakatifu anaweza kuifanya maishani mwa mtu ni kama ile ya Petro, kabla hajajazwa Roho Mtakatifu alimkana Yesu mara tatu, na alikuwa mbeleni ameahidi kumfuata Yesu mpaka kwenye hatari ya kifo angekufa naye. Baada ya kujazwa na Roho alizungumza waziwazi na kwa ujasiri mbele ya wayahudi juu ya mwokozi katika siku ya pentekote.<br />
<br />
Unatembea ndani ya Roho ukiwa humzuii anapotaka kujidhihirisha (“kumzima Roho” wathesalonike wa kwanza 5:19) na una kiu ya kujazwa naye kila wakati (Waefeso 5:18-21). Je mtu hujazwaje na Roho Mtakatifu? Kwanza ni kwa mapenzi ya Mungu kama vile ilivyo katika agano la kale. Alikuwa akichagua watu Fulani, kuwajaza kwa ajili ya kutekeleza kazi ama wadhifa Fulani (Mwanzo 41: 38; Kutoka 31:3; Hesabu 24:2; Samueli wa kwanza 10:10; na kadhalika.) Ninaamini kuwa kuna ushahidi katika Waefeso 5:18-21 na Wakolosai 3:16 yakuwa Mungu huchagua kujaza wale wanaojijaza Neno la Mungu kwa kuwa kote kote ni kujazwa uwezo wa Mungu.<br />
<br />
(2) Neno la Mungu, Biblia – Timotheo wa pili 3:16-17 inasema ya kwamba Mungu ametupa neno lake ili lituandae katika kufanya kazi njema. Linatufundisha jinsi ya kuishi na cha kuamini, linatufunulia kama tumetenda makosa na kuturudisha katika njia ya sawa. Kama waebrania 4:12 inavyosema Neno la Mungu liko hai na lina nguvu ya kupenya ndani ya nafsi zetu kung’oa lile tatizo ambalo mwanadamu hangeweza kulitatua. Mwandishi wa zaburi azungumzia uwezo wa Neno la Mungu juu ya kubadilisha maisha ya watu katika zaburi 119:9,11,105 na aya nyengine. Joshua aliambiwa siri ya kushinda adui zake (inayoashiria pia vita vyetu vya kiroho) ni kwamba asilisahau Neno la Mungu bali alitafakari usiku na mchana ili akalitimize. Haya aliyatenda, ijapokuwa maagizo yenyewe hayakuwa na uhusiano na mambo ya kivita lakini yakampa ushindi katika vita vya kuimiliki nchi ya ahadi.<br />
<br />
Hii ni sehemu ambayo mara nyingi tunaipuuza. Tunapenda kubeba biblia tukienda kanisani ama kusoma aya za kukariri lakini hatuyatilii maanani yale tuyasomayo. Hatuyatafutii nafasi maishani mwetu kiasi cha kutubu dhambi zetu na kumtukuza Mungu kwa kipawa hiki. Tunasoma tu kiasi cha kupata mtazamo Fulani juu ya wokovu lakini hatuongezi juhudi zozote katika kutafakari kwetu mara kwa mara kiasi cha kutufanya tuwe na afya nzuri kiroho.<br />
<br />
Ni muhimu sana kwako ufanye tabia ya kusoma neno la Mungu. Kama bado hujazoea basi Roho anakusisitiza uwe na tabia ya kulisoma Neno la Mungu. Nina kushauri uwe na kumbukumbu ya yale uliyoyasoma kwa kuyanakili kwenye daftari lako au kwenye kompyuta. Biblia ndicho kifaa Roho hutumia katika maisha yetu na maisha yaw engine (Waefeso 6:17), ikiwa ni sehemu kubwa ya silaha mojawapo ambayo Mungu hutupa ili tupigane vita vya kiroho (Waefeso 6:12-18)!<br />
<br />
(3) Maombi – Hii pia ni njia nyengine ambayo Mungu ametupatia. Njia hii wakristo wengi huitaja tu kwa maneno lakini hawaitumii. Tuna ibada za maombi na nyakati za maombi na kadhalika lakini hatuoni manufaa ya jambo hilo sawa na kanisa la kwanza (Matendo 3:1; 4:31; 6:4; 13:1-3, na kadhalika). Paulo mara kwa mara arudia kueleza vile alikuwa akiwaombea wale aliokuwa akiwahudumia. Lakini tunapokuwa peke yetu hatuitumii njiaa hii. Mungu ametuahidi mambo mazuri ya ajabu kuhusiana na maombi (Mathayo 7:7-11; Luka 18:1-8; Yohana 6:23-27; Yohana wa kwanza 5:14-15, na kadhalika.) Paulo analiongezea mkazo tena katika mafundisho yake juu ya kujiandaa kwa ajili ya vita vya kiroho (Waefeso 6:18)!<br />
<br />
Je, ni muhimu kiasi gani njia hii? Tunapomtazama tena Petro, tunaona maneno ya kristo aliyomwambia kabla hajamkana kule Gethsemane. Yesu alipokuwa akiomba Petro alilala. Yesu akamwambia, “Kesheni mkiomba ili msiingie majaribuni: Roho inataka lakini mwili ni dhaifu” (Mathayo 26:41). Wewe pia kama Petro unataka kufanya mema lakini huna nguvu yakutosha kufanyia hayo. Lazima tufuate mausia ya Mungu, tuendelee kumtafuta, tukibisha na kumuuliza… na atatupatia nguvu ile tuitafutayo (Mathayo 7:7 na kuendelea). Lakini lazima tuitilie mkazo njia hii maishani mwetu ndiyo tufaulu. Sisemi ya kwamba maombi ndiyo njia maalum zaidi. La sivyo. Mungu ni wakutisha. Maombi ni kukubali hali zetu za udhaifu, ukuu wa Mungu mwenye nguvu na asiyeshindwa ili tupate uwezo huo huo tuweze kuyafanya yaliyo mapenzi yake (wala si yetu) (Yohana wa kwanza 5:14-15).<br />
<br />
(4) Kanisa – Hii ni mojawapo ya njia tunazozifumbia jicho. Yesu alipowatuma wanafunzi wake aliwatuma wawili wawili (Mathayo 10:1). Tunaposoma juu ya habari za safari za wale wamishenari katika kitabu cha matendo ya mitume, hawakuenda mmoja mmoja bali katika makundi, wawili wawili au zaidi.Yesu alisema mahali wawili au watatu wamekusanyika kwa ajili ya jina langu, nami nitakuwa katikati yao (Mathayo 18:20). Anatuamuru tusiache kukusanyana pamoja kama kawaida za watu wengine zilivyo bali tuutumie wakati wa kuwa pamoja kwetu kwa kutiana moyo katika upendo na matendo mema (Waebrania 110:24-25). Anatuagiza kutubu dhambi zetu mmoja kwa mwingine (Yakobo 5:16).
