Apostle Grace Lubega

Matthew 6:7-8 (MSG); The world is full of so-called prayer warriors who are prayer-ignorant. They’re full of formulas and programs and advice, peddling techniques for getting what you want from God. Don’t fall for that nonsense. This is your Father you are dealing with, and he knows better than you what you need.

The realm of the Spirit of God responds to principle and not to method. 

This truth is key if you must have an effective life of prayer. 

Many people are overly preoccupied with the methods of prayer and assume that it is the method that brings the answers. No, it is not the method of prayer that will bring the answer. Rather, it is the principles of prayer that will bring the results of prayer.

I have heard men teach about ACTS in prayer, which is an acronym for Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving and Supplication. That is a method and not a principle of prayer. Nowhere in the scriptures does God instruct us to pray following this order. 

Praying while kneeling is a method of prayer. It is not a principle. It is therefore erroneous to judge a man because he did not kneel while praying. God does not answer prayer because a man knelt down or stood up while he prayed.

Methods of prayer will always differ but the principles are the same. What God requires of you is to invest in understanding the principles and not the methods.

Praying in faith is a principle of prayer. Invest in understanding how faith works.

Praying with the Word is a principle of prayer.  Study the scriptures so that you can know what to say when you pray. 

It is the principles that define the relationship we have with God in prayer, not the method.

FURTHER STUDY: James 5:15, Psalm 107:20

GOLDEN NUGGET: The realm of the Spirit of God responds to principle and not to method. Methods of prayer will always differ but the principles are the same. What God requires of you is to invest in understanding the principles and not the methods.

PRAYER: Loving Father, I thank You for this truth. I receive this wisdom of effective prayer and apply it diligently to my life. I understand the principles of prayer and abide by them, above the methods of prayer. I see results in prayer because I have this knowledge. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

ESSAALA — ENNONO WAGGULU W’ENGERI

Omutume Grace Lubega

Matayo 6:7-8 (MSG); Ensi ejjudde abantu abayitibwa abasabi bannaggwano abatamanyi kusaba. Bajjudde engeri n’enteekateeka n’okuwebwa amagezi, obukodyo obusendasenda okufuna ky’oyagala okuva eri Katonda. Kale, temufaanana ng’abo. Ono ye Kitaawo gw’okolagana naye, era amanyi okukusinga bye weetaaga.

Ensi ey’omwoyo wa Katonda eyanukula eri ennono sso si eri engeri.

Amazima gano ga nkizo bw’oba ng’onaabeera n’obulamu obw’essaala ezikola.

Abantu bangi bamaliddwawo n’engeri ez’essaala era n’endowooza nti engeri y’ereeta eby’okuddibwamu. Nedda, tekiri ku ngeri ya ssaala. Naye, ennono ey’essaala y’ejja okuleeta ebibala eby’essaala.

Mpulidde abantu abasomesa ku ACTS mu ssaala, nga ky’ekigambo eky’oluzungu ekifundiziddwa ekiggwaayo mu luganda okutegeeza, Okusinza, Okwatula, Okwebaza, Okwegayirira. Eyo ngeri sso si nnono ey’okusaba. Tewali mu byawandiikibwa Katonda bw’atulagira okusaba nga tugoberera omutendera guno.

Okusaba ng’ofukamidde eyo ngeri ey’okusaba. Si nnono. N’olwekyo nsobi okusalira omuntu omusango kubanga teyafukamira bwe yali nga asaba. Katonda taddamu ssaala kubanga omuntu yafukamira wansi oba yayimirira ng’ali mu kusaba.

Engeri ez’essaala zijja kwawukananga naye ennono zeezimu. Katonda ky’akwetaaza kwe kuteeka obudde mu kutegeera ennono sso si mu ngeri.

Okusaba mu kukkiriza nnono ey’essaala. Teeka obudde mu kutegeera engeri okukkiriza gye kukolamu.

Okusaba n’Ekigambo nnono ey’essaala. Soma ebyawandiikibwa olwo osobole okumanya kiki eky’okwogera bw’oba ng’osaba.

Nnono ze zinnyonnyola enkolagana zetulina ne Katonda mu kusaba, sso si ngeri.

YONGERA OSOME: Yakobo 5:15, Zabbuli 107:20

AKASUMBI KA ZAABU: Ensi ey’omwoyo wa Katonda eyanukula eri ennono sso si engeri. Engeri ez’essaala zijja kwawukananga naye ennono zeezimu. Katonda ky’akwetaaza kwe kuteeka obudde mu kutegeera ennono sso si engeri.

ESSAALA: Kitange Omwagalwa, Nkwebaza ku lw’amazima gano. Ntwala amagezi gano ag’essaala ekola era n’okugateeka mu nkola n’obwegendereza eri obulamu bwange. Ntegeera ennono ez’essaala era nzisigalako, okusukkuluma ku ngeri ez’essaala. Ndaba eby’okuddibwamu mu ssaala kubanga nnina okumanya kuno. Mu linnya erya Yesu, Amiina.

KANUNI ZA SALA ZAIDI YA NJIA

Mtume Grace Lubega

Mathayo 6:7-8 (MSG); Ulimwengu umejaa wale wanaoitwa wapiganaji wa maombi ambao hawana ufahamu wa maombi. Zimejaa fomula na programu na ushauri, mbinu za kuuza ili kupata kile unachotaka kutoka kwa Mungu. Usiangukie upuuzi huo. Huyu ndiye Baba yako unayeshughulika naye, na anajua bora kuliko wewe kile unachohitaji.

Ufalme wa Roho wa Mungu huitikia kanuni wala si mbinu.

Ukweli huu ni muhimu ikiwa ni lazima uwe na maisha madhubuti ya maombi.

Watu wengi wamejishughulisha kupita kiasi na mbinu za maombi na kudhani kuwa ndiyo njia inayoleta majibu. La, sio njia ya maombi ambayo italeta majibu. Bali ni kanuni za maombi ambazo zitaleta matokeo ya maombi.

Nimesikia watu wakifundisha kuhusu ACTS katika maombi, ambacho (katika kiingereza) ni kifupi cha Kuabudu, Kuungama, Kushukuru na Kuomba. Hiyo ni mbinu na sio kanuni ya maombi. Hakuna mahali popote katika maandiko ambapo Mungu anatuagiza kuomba kwa kufuata utaratibu huu.

Kuomba ukiwa umepiga magoti ni njia ya maombi. Sio kanuni. Kwa hivyo ni makosa kumhukumu mtu kwa sababu hakupiga magoti wakati wa kuomba. Mungu hajibu maombi kwa sababu mtu alipiga magoti au kusimama wakati anaomba.

Mbinu za maombi daima zitatofautiana lakini kanuni ni zile zile. Mungu anachohitaji kwako ni kuwekeza katika kuelewa kanuni na sio mbinu.

Kuomba kwa imani ni kanuni ya maombi. Wekeza katika kuelewa jinsi imani inavyofanya kazi.

Kuomba kwa Neno ni kanuni ya maombi. Jifunze maandiko ili uweze kujua la kusema unapoomba.

Ni kanuni zinazofafanua uhusiano tulionao na Mungu katika maombi, wala si njia.

MASOMO YA ZIADA: Yakobo 5:15, Zaburi 107:20

UJUMBE MKUU: Ufalme wa Roho wa Mungu huitikia kanuni wala si mbinu. Mbinu za maombi daima zitatofautiana lakini kanuni ni zile zile. Mungu anachohitaji kwako ni kuwekeza katika kuelewa kanuni na sio mbinu.

SALA: Baba Mpenzi, Nakushukuru kwa kweli hii. Ninapokea hekima hii ya maombi yenye matokeo na ninaitumia kwa bidii maishani mwangu. Ninaelewa kanuni za maombi na kukaa nazo, zaidi ya njia za maombi. Ninaona matokeo katika maombi kwa sababu nina ujuzi huu. Katika jina la Yesu, Amina.
