Shetani mara nyingi hushambulia mawazo ya waumini kuhusu maisha yao ya baadaye na Mungu.
Anawataka watilie shaka ahadi za Mungu, na kuwa na shaka ikiwa kweli wataenda mbinguni baada ya kifo chao.
Mawazo haya yanaweza kuwa ya kukatisha tamaa sana, na yanaweza kuchukua furaha yetu na uhakika wa imani.

“Ipokeeni chapeo ya wokovu…”(Waefeso 6:17)

Chapeo ya wokovu imewekwa juu ya vichwa vyetu kwa sababu vita vingi hufanyika katika kiwango hiki. Ni katika ngazi ya kichwa kwamba mawazo, hofu, mashaka huzaliwa, tafakari huundwa, maamuzi hufanywa. Kwa hiyo ni kwa kichwa kwamba makofi mengi hupigwa.
Tukivaa chapeo ya wokovu, hakika tunalinda mawazo yetu ya tumaini la wakati ujao.
Tazamio la furaha la uzima wa milele katika uwepo wa Bwana na uhakikisho wa ahadi za Mungu kuhusu mbingu mpya na dunia mpya, hutoa tumaini na nguvu za kustahimili.
Hebu turuhusu wokovu wa Mungu kutujaza na tumaini na uvumilivu tena.
Wakristo ni kama Waisraeli wakati wa safari yao ya jangwani: hali wakati mwingine ni ngumu, si rahisi kila wakati kuendelea, lakini tunaendelea kwa sababu tunajua mwisho wetu unastahili na Mungu hututegemeza katika safari yao.
Kofia ya wokovu inaweza kutupa mtazamo sahihi juu ya maisha.

OMBI:
Bwana Mungu wetu, utujalie tumaini la maisha yetu yajayo.
Ni katika jina la thamani la mwanao Yesu Kristo tunaomba, Amina.

Words are not just words, the reality is that words have meaning and power. And one of the greatest powers of the spoken word is the power to reveal the inner condition of our hearts.
Our words can expose just how much we have been stained and corrupted by the world or how much we have been transformed into the image and likeness of Jesus Christ.
That is why James says that:
« If anyone considers himself religious and yet does not keep a tight rein on his tongue, he deceives himself and his religion is worthless. »(James 1:26)

If we can’t bridle our tongues and the words that come out of our mouths look more like the world than like Christ, the impurity of our hearts is laid bare.

But if we are really in Christ, we are a new creation with a new heart and new words: « Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come. »(2 Corinthians 5:17)
It means that we take off the old self and put on the new, and one of the ways we take off the old self is to stop talking like the old self.

PRAYER:
Eternal our God, help us to control our words and to stop talking like the world.
It is in the precious name of your son Jesus Christ that we pray, Amen.

Les mots ne sont pas que des mots, la réalité est que les mots ont un sens et un pouvoir. Et l’un des plus grands pouvoirs de la parole est celui de révéler la condition intérieure de notre cœur.(Lire Matthieu 12:34-37)
Nos paroles peuvent révéler à quel point nous avons été souillés et corrompus par le monde ou à quel point nous avons été transformés à l’image et à la ressemblance de Jésus-Christ.
C’est pourquoi Jacques dit que:
« Si quelqu’un croit être religieux, sans tenir sa langue en bride, mais en trompant son coeur, la religion de cet homme est vaine. »(Jacques 1:26)

Si nous ne pouvons pas maîtriser notre langue et que les paroles qui sortent de notre bouche ressemblent plus au monde qu’à Christ, l’impureté de notre cœur est mise à nu.

Mais si nous sommes réellement en Christ, nous sommes une nouvelle création avec un cœur nouveau et des paroles nouvelles.
« Si quelqu’un est en Christ, il est une nouvelle créature. Les choses anciennes sont passées; voici, toutes choses sont devenues nouvelles. »(2 Corinthiens 5:17)
Cela signifie que nous enlevons l’ancien moi et revêtons le nouveau, et l’une des façons de nous débarrasser de l’ancien moi est d’arrêter de parler comme l’ancien moi.

PRIÈRE:
Éternel notre Dieu, aidez-nous à contrôler nos paroles et à arrêter de parler comme le monde.
C’est dans le nom précieux de votre fils Jésus-Christ que nous prions, Amen.

Maneno sio maneno tu, ukweli ni kwamba maneno yana maana na nguvu. Na mojawapo ya nguvu kuu za neno lililonenwa ni uwezo wa kufichua hali ya ndani ya mioyo yetu.
Maneno yetu yanaweza kufichua ni kwa kiasi gani tumetiwa doa na kupotoshwa na ulimwengu au ni kwa kiasi gani tumegeuzwa kuwa sura na mfano wa Yesu Kristo.
Ndiyo maana Yakobo anasema:
« Mtu akidhani ya kuwa anayo dini, wala hauzuii ulimi wake kwa hatamu, hali akijidanganya moyo wake, dini yake mtu huyo haifai. »(Yakobo 1:26)

Ikiwa hatuwezi kudhibiti ndimi zetu na maneno yanayotoka katika vinywa vyetu yanafanana zaidi na ulimwengu kuliko Kristo, uchafu wa mioyo yetu unawekwa wazi.

Lakini ikiwa kweli tumo ndani ya Kristo, tu kiumbe kipya chenye moyo mpya na maneno mapya.
« Mtu akiwa ndani ya Kristo amekuwa kiumbe kipya; ya kale yamepita tazama! Yamekuwa mapya. »(2 Wakorintho 5:17)
Ina maana kwamba tunavua utu wa kale na kuvaa utu mpya, na mojawapo ya njia tunazovua utu wa kale ni kuacha kuzungumza kama utu wa kale.

OMBI:
Mungu wetu wa milele, tusaidie kudhibiti maneno yetu na kuacha kuzungumza kama ulimwengu.
Ni katika jina la thamani la mwanao Yesu Kristo tunaomba, Amina.

The book of Proverbs says:
« As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another. »(Proverbs 27:17)

Iron, symbolizes here human strength, obstinacy, fortitude, honor, courage, sharpness (of body and mind), tenacity, and confidence in power.
Just as iron needs another iron to be sharpened, every man needs another man who encourages him, gives him knowledge, strengthens him and so on.
So, as christians, we have to be continually sharpened and to sharpen others for the glory of God, not for our own glory.
We can sharpen others or be sharpened through the teachings of God’s word, through counseling and various refresher trainings.

So, are you sharp ?
If you are sharp, how many people have you already sharpened for the glory of God?

PRAYER:
Eternal our God, help us to feel the need of being sharpened and to sharpen others.
It is in the precious name of your son Jesus Christ that we pray, Amen.
