Na obiara a obisa no nya, na obiara a ɔhwehwɛ no hu, na obiara a obom no wobebue ama no.”—Luka 11:5-10.

⁶ Ɛnyɛ sɛnea ɛsɛ sɛ yɛkɔ so bɔ mpae nko na Yesu kyerɛɛ yɛn, ɔkyerɛɛ yɛn nea enti a ɛsɛ sɛ yɛyɛ saa nso.

Ɔbarima no kɔɔ so bisaa paanoo efisɛ na osusuw sɛ, sɛ obetumi asom ne hɔho no yiye a, na ehia sɛ ɔkwan biara so no onya saa paanoo no. (Yesaia 58:5-7) Sɛ wannya paanoo a, n’anim begu ase. Saa ara na esiane sɛ yenim sɛ yehia Onyankopɔn honhom ɔkwan biara so na yɛatumi ayɛ yɛn som adwuma sɛ nokware Kristofo nti, yɛkɔ so bɔ mpae de hwehwɛ Onyankopɔn honhom. (Sakaria 4:6) Sɛ yɛannya honhom no a, yɛrentumi nyɛ adwuma no. (Mateo 26:41) So wuhu aba a yebetumi afa afi mfatoho yi mu no? Sɛ yebu Onyankopɔn honhom sɛ biribi a yehia denneennen a, ɛda adi sɛ yɛbɛkɔ so abisa.

Wuhu sɛ ɔkwan biara so no, wuhia obi a ne ho akokwaw. Sɛ woanhwehwɛ mmoa a, onipa no betumi awu. Saa ara na sɛ yɛbɛka a, nokware Kristofo kɔ so hyia tebea bi a ɛsɛ sɛ wodi ho dwuma ntɛm. Nokwasɛm ne sɛ, Satan nenam te sɛ “gyata a ɔbobom” repɛ yɛn amene. (1 Petro 5:8) Sɛ yɛbɛkɔ so ne Yehowa anya abusuabɔ a, yehia Onyankopɔn honhom kronkron no mmoa ɔkwan biara so. Sɛ yɛanhwehwɛ Onyankopɔn nkyɛn mmoa a, ebetumi de yɛn nkwa ato asiane mu. Enti ɛsɛ sɛ yɛkɔ so guan Onyankopɔn ho de hwehwɛ ne honhom kronkron. (Efesofo 3:14-16) Sɛ yɛyɛ saa nkutoo a na yebetumi anya ahoɔden a yehia de ‘agyina mu akosi awiei.’—Mateo 10:22; 24:13.
