Nei tichishandisa nguva yedu uye simba zvakadaro asi vakawanda vachitarisana nedambudziko rakakura roupfumi? Tingaramba sei takashinga asi vakawanda vachitya ramangwana? Rwiyo rwaMambo Dhavhidhi rwakanyorwa muPisarema 27 rwune mhinduro dzacho.
2. Kudedereswa nechimwe chinhu kunoita kuti munhu aite sei, asi isu tine chivimbo chei?

Ndingadedereswa naaniko?” (Pis. 27:1) Kana munhu akadedereswa nechimwe chinhu, anopera simba zvokuti haana chaanozokwanisa kuita. Asi hapana chinofanira kudederesa munhu anotya Jehovha. (1 Pet. 3:14) Kana tikaita kuti Jehovha ave nhare yedu, ‘tichagara takachengeteka, tisingadedereswi nedambudziko.’ (Zvir. 1:33; 3:25) Nei zvakadaro?

3 Fananidzo yokuti “Jehovha ndiye chiedza changu” inotipa pfungwa yokuti Jehovha anotisunungura mukusaziva uye murima rokunamata. (Pis. 27:1) Chiedza chinoita kuti tione ngozi kana kuti chinhu chinopingirisha, asi hachibvisi ngozi yacho. Tinofanira kubva tadzivisa ngozi yacho. Ndizvo zvinoitawo Jehovha, anotizivisa zvinorehwa nezvinhu zviri kuitika munyika. Anotinyevera nezvengozi dziri munyika ino yakaipa. Anotipa mazano anoshanda nguva dzose anobva muBhaibheri, asi tinofanira kuashandisa. Patinodaro, tinogona kuva vakachenjera kupfuura vavengi vedu kana kuti vadzidzisi vedu.—Pis. 119:98, 99, 130.
4. (a) Nei Dhavhidhi aigona kutaura nechivimbo kuti: “Jehovha ndiye . . . ruponeso rwangu”? (b) Ndepapi chaipo Jehovha paachava ruponeso rwedu?

Somuenzaniso, Jehovha ainge amununura “patsoka dzeshumba nepatsoka dzebheya.” Jehovha akaitawo kuti akunde hofori yainzi Goriyati. Mambo Sauro akaedzawo kumubaya nepfumo, asi Jehovha aingomununura. (1 Sam. 17:37, 49, 50; 18:11, 12; 19:10) Ndosaka Dhavhidhi aigona kutaura nechivimbo kuti: “Jehovha ndiye . . . ruponeso rwangu”! Jehovha achaponesa vashumiri vake sezvaakaita Dhavhidhi. Sei? Nokununura vanamati vake “mukutambudzika kukuru” kuri kuuya.—Zvak. 7:14; 2 Pet. 2:9.

Somuenzaniso, wakambonyengetera nemwoyo wose here nezvedambudziko raikushungurudza ukaona kupiwa kwawakaitwa uchenjeri kana kuti simba rokutsungirira naJehovha? Kana kuti unoyeuka here kubviswa kwakaitwa zvipingamupinyi zvaikutadzisa kushumira Jehovha uchifara kana kuti kuzarurwa kwakaitwa suo guru rebasa?

Ndangariro dzakadaro hadziiti here kuti uve nechokwadi chokuti Jehovha anogona kukubatsira kukunda kana kuti kutsungirira matambudziko akatokura?—VaR. 5:3-5.

Dhavhidhi ndiye akaunganidza zvinhu zvaidiwa kuti mwanakomana wake Soromoni azovaka temberi yakanaka chaizvo. Mazana emakore akazotevera, Jesu akataura kuti vanhu vaisazofanira kuenda kutemberi kuti kunamata kwavo kugamuchirwe naJehovha. (Joh. 4:21-23) Muzvitsauko 8 kusvika ku10 zvaVaHebheru, muapostora Pauro akaratidza kuti temberi huru yomudzimu yakavapo pakabhabhatidzwa Jesu muna 29 C.E., paakazvipa kuti aite zvinodiwa naJehovha. (VaH. 10:10) Temberi iyi urongwa hwaJehovha hwokuti, kana tichitenda muchibayiro chaJesu chorudzikinuro, tikwanise kutaura naMwari. Tinomunamata sei patemberi iyoyo? Nokunyengetera “nemwoyo yechokwadi tiine chivimbo chizere nokutenda”; nokuzivisa tariro yedu pachena tisingazununguki; uye nokurangarirana, tichikurudzira vatinonamata navo patinoungana pamisangano yeungano uye pakunamata kwemhuri. (VaH. 10:22-25) Kukoshesa urongwa hwokunamata kwechokwadi kunotisimbisa mumazuva ano akaoma okupedzisira.

Asi mazuva ano vakawanda vari kurambwa nemhuri dzavo. Vakawanda vakadaro vakabatsirwa uye vakadzivirirwa neungano yechiKristu.

Munguva pfupi yapfuura pakwakava nematambudziko ezvoupfumi, vazhinji vakaona kushanda kwezano rokuchenjera rokuita kuti upenyu husava netwakawanda-wanda.
