3, 4. (a) Umlobi weHubo 71 wacelani kuJehova? (b) Asebeluphele abasebandleni bangacelani kuNkulunkulu?

3 Ephefumulelwe, umlobi weHubo 71:⁠9 wancenga uNkulunkulu esithi: “Ungangilahleli kude nxa sengiluphele; ungangifulatheli lapho amandla ami esephelile.” Kukhanya angani ihubo leli liqhubeka ngendaba ekuHubo-70 elesihloko esithi, “ElikaDavida.” Yikho-ke kungabe kunguDavida owenza isicelo esikuHubo 71:⁠9. UDavida wakhonza uNkulunkulu kusukela esesemutsha waze waluphala njalo uJehova wamsebenzisa ngezindlela ezinengi ezinkulu. (1 Sam. 17:​33-​37, 50; 1 AmaKho. 2:​1-​3, 10) Lanxa kunjalo, uDavida wabona kuqakathekile ukuthi acele ukuthi uJehova aqhubeke embusisa.​—⁠Bala iHubo 71:​17, 18.

4 Lamuhla banengi abanjengoDavida. Baqhubeka besenza okusemandleni abo ukuze badumise uNkulunkulu lanxa sebeluphele njalo ‘sebesezinsukwini zokuhlupheka.’ (UmTshu. 12:​1-⁠7) Abanengi babo bangabe sebesehluleka ukwenza okunye kwalokho ababesenelisa ukukwenza besaqinile, ngokwesibonelo ukutshumayela. Kodwa bangamncenga uJehova ukuthi aqhubeke ebabusisa njalo ebanakekela. Asebeluphele laba abathembekileyo bangaba leqiniso lokuthi uJehova uzayiphendula imithandazo yabo, ngoba imithandazo leyo ilezikhalazo ezivela enhliziyweni ezifanana lezakhulunywa nguDavida ephefumulelwe nguNkulunkulu.

Omunye ubaba waseBrazil wathi: “Siyakukholisa kakhulu uKukhonza Kwemuli kwantambama okokuthi nxa ngingasayimisanga imuli yami siyaxoxa kuze kube sebusuku.” Kanti njalo enye inhloko yemuli eJapan yathi umntanayo ongumfana oleminyaka elitshumi uyabe engakuboni lokuthi isikhathi sesihambile, uyabe elokhu efuna ukuqhubeka. Ngani? Inhloko yemuli le ithi, “uyakukholisa kakhulu ukufunda okokuthi kumenza athokoze.”

Kodwa akusibo bonke abantwana abakuthandayo ukukhonza kwemuli, futhi kuliqiniso ukuthi abanye bangabe bengakukholisi. Ngani? Omunye ubaba weTogo uthi yena, “Ukukhonza uJehova akumelanga kube yinto edinayo.” Nxa kuyikuthi kuyadina kungabe kutshengisa ukuthi kumele kulungiswe indlela ukukhonza kwemuli okwenziwa ngayo. Kodwa izimuli ezinengi sezakubona ukuthi ukukhonza kwemuli kungaba “yintokozo” njengalokhu u-Isaya akutsho mayelana leSabatha.​—⁠Isaya 58:​13, 14.

Obaba abangamaKhristu bayakunanzelela ukuthi ukuze izimuli zabo zikholise ukukhonza kwemuli, kumele wonke umuntu akhululeke. URalf ubaba olabantwana abathathu abangamantombazana kanye lomfana oyedwa uthi ekukhonzeni kwabo kwemuli bayabe bezixoxela nje, njalo wonke umuntu uyabe ekhululekile ukukhuluma. Kodwa kwesinye isikhathi kungaba nzima ukwenza ukuthi wonke umuntu akholise okufundwayo. Omunye umama uthi: “Kwesinye isikhathi ngizizwa ngingelamandla okwenza ukuthi ukukhonza kwemuli kuthokozise ngendlela engifisa ngayo.” Lingakwenza njani ukuthi kuthokozise?

UKUZWISISA KANYE LOKUNTSHINTSHANTSHINTSHA

Ubaba ohlala eGermany olabantwana ababili uthi, “Kumele sizwisise.” UNatalia, umama olabantwana ababili uthi “into eqakatheke kakhulu emulini yabo yikuhlala bentshintshantshintsha.” Izimuli ezinengi zenza ukuthi ukukhonza kwazo
