Apostle Grace Lubega

Matthew 10:34-35 (MSG); Don’t think I’ve come to make life cozy. I’ve come to cut– make a sharp knife-cut between son and father, daughter and mother, bride and mother-in-law–cut through these cozy domestic arrangements and free you for God.

When God consecrates a man, He will specifically deal with his associations. The Lord knows that the people around you determine a number of things about how you grow and relate with Him.

In the life of the gospel, I have seen people cling to relationships that God is attempting to separate them from because they are destructive to their destinies.

In 2 Corinthians 6:14, the Bible says, “Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?”

This scripture is often looked at in the context of marriage to unbelievers. But there is more to it than that.

There are people in your life with whom you may be in the same book but different chapters; you may be in the same chapter but different pages or, you may even be in the same library but in different books. Sometimes elevation will mean separation from those with whom you share similarities yet to God, your paths are too different.

If you no longer have the desire to hang out in the places that your friends used to hang out, you must pay attention to that fact, it may be that God is separating you from those associations.

FURTHER STUDY: 2 Corinthians 6:14, 1 Corinthians 15:33

GOLDEN NUGGET: When God consecrates a man, He will specifically deal with his associations. Sometimes elevation will mean separation from those with whom you share similarities yet to God, your paths are too different.

PRAYER: Loving Father, I thank You for this truth. Thank You for the wisdom to know who is in my life for only a season and who I must let go of. I will never let my relationships stand in the way of my God-given destiny. I yield to Your leading and instruction even as You elevate me in the call that You have for my life. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Matayo 10:34-35 (MSG); Mutateekateeka ngu nkaija kureeta obusingye omu nsi; tindaizire kureeta busingye, kureka rurara. Ahabw’okuba nkaija kutaanisa omwojo na ishe, omwishiki na nyina, omukazi na nyinazaara;

HURU KWA MUNGU – 2

Mtume Grace Lubega

Mathayo 10:34-35 (MSG); Usifikiri nimekuja kufanya maisha kuwa ya starehe. Nimekuja kukata—kukata kisu chenye ncha kali kati ya mwana na baba, binti na mama, bibi-arusi na mama mkwe—upanga unaopitia mipango hii ya nyumbani yenye kupendeza na kukuweka huru kwa ajili ya Mungu.

Wakati Mungu anamtakasa mtu, atashughulikia hasa mahusiano yake. Bwana anajua kwamba watu walio karibu nawe huamua mambo kadhaa kuhusu jinsi unavyokua na kuhusiana naye.

Katika maisha ya injili, nimeona watu wakishikilia mahusiano ambayo Mungu anajaribu kuwatenganisha kwa sababu ni haribifu kwa hatima zao.

Katika 2 Wakorintho 6:14, Biblia inasema, “Msifungiwe nira pamoja na wasioamini, kwa jinsi isivyo sawasawa; kwa maana pana urafiki gani kati ya haki na uasi? Tena pana shirika gani kati ya nuru na giza?”

Andiko hili mara nyingi hutazamwa katika muktadha wa ndoa kwa wasioamini. Lakini lina zaidi kuliko hilo.

Kuna watu katika maisha yako ambao unaweza kuwa katika kitabu kimoja lakini sura tofauti; unaweza kuwa katika sura moja lakini kurasa tofauti au, unaweza hata kuwa katika maktaba moja lakini katika vitabu tofauti. Wakati mwingine kuinuliwa kutamaanisha kujitenga na wale ambao mnafanana lakini bado kwa Mungu, njia zenu ni tofauti sana.

Ikiwa huna tena hamu ya kupunga upepo katika maeneo ambayo marafiki zako walikuwa wanapunga upepo, lazima uzingatie ukweli huo, inaweza kuwa kwamba Mungu anakutenganisha na mahusiano hayo.

MASOMO YA ZIADA: 2 Wakorintho 6:14, 1 Wakorintho 15:33

UJUMBE MKUU: Wakati Mungu anamtakasa mtu, atashughulikia hasa mahusiano yake. Wakati mwingine kuinuliwa kutamaanisha kujitenga na wale ambao mnafanana lakini bado kwa Mungu, njia zenu ni tofauti sana.

SALA: Baba Mpenzi, Nakushukuru kwa ukweli huu. Asante kwa hekima ya kujua ni nani yuko katika maisha yangu kwa majira tu na ni nani lazima nimwachilie aende. Sitaruhusu kamwe mahusiano yangu yazibe njia ya hatima yangu ya Kiungu. Ninajisalimisha kwa uongozi na maelekezo Yako hata unaponiinua katika wito ulio nao kwa maisha yangu. Kwa jina la Yesu, Amina.
