Apostle Grace Lubega

Matthew 1:23 (KJV); Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.

The birth of Christ reminds us that God is with us.

As Christians, our greatest assurance is that we do not live Godless in this world. The creator of heaven and earth is with us and is for us.

Why are these convictions of Emmanuel so important?

In 2 Kings 18:7, the Bible says of King Hezekiah, “And the LORD was with him; and he prospered whithersoever he went forth”. It means that because God is with us, prosperity is our portion in Christ.

In Acts 10:38, the scriptures say of Christ, “How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.”

When God is with a man, that man does good everywhere he goes. The convictions of Emmanuel remind us that we are answers to people’s prayers.

Never live your life like a person who does not have God with him. In all your pursuits and labours, remind yourself that God is with you. He prospers you and makes you an answer to many. Hallelujah!

OKULUMIRIZIBWA KWA EMMANWERI

Omutume Grace Lubega

Matayo 1:23(KJV); Laba, omuwala atamanyi musajja aliba olubuto, era alizaala omwana wa bulenzi, Balimutuuma erinnya lye Emmanweri; eritegeezebwa nti Katonda ali naffe.

Okuzaalibwa kwa Kristo kutujjukiza nti Katonda ali naffe.

Nga Abakristaayo, obukakafu bwaffe obusingayo obukulu buli nti tetubeerawo awatali Katonda mu nsi eno. Omutonzi w’ensi n’eggulu ali naffe era ku lwaffe.

Okulumirizibwa kwa Emmanweri kuno lwaki kukulu nnyo?

Mu 2 Bassekabaka 18:7, Baibuli eyogera ku kabaka Kezekiya, “Awo Mukama n’abanga naye; buli gye yafulumanga yonna n’alabanga omukisa.” Kitegeeza nti Katonda ali naffe, enkulaakulana mugabo gwaffe mu Kristo.

Mu Ebikolwa By’Abatume 10:38 ebyawandiikibwa byogera ku Kristo, “Yesu Omunazaaleesi Katonda bwe yamufukako amafuta n’Omwoyo Omutukuvu n’amaanyi: eyatambulanga ng’akola bulungi, ng’awonya bonna abaajoogebwanga Setaani; kubanga Katonda yali naye.”

Katonda bw’abeera n’omuntu, omuntu akola bulungi buli gy’alaga. Okulumirizibwa kwa Emmanweri kutujjukiza nti tuli kya kuddamu eri essaala z’abantu.

Tobeeranga mu bulamu bwo ng’omuntu atalina Katonda wamu naye. Mu byonna by’ogoba ne by’olafuubanira, wejjukize nti Katonda ali naawe. Akuwanguzisa era akufuula eky’okuddamu eri abangi. Alleluya!

DHIMA ZA EMMANUELI

Mtume Grace Lubega

Mathayo 1:23 ( KJV); Tazama, bikira atachukua mimba, Naye atazaa mwana; Nao watamwita jina lake Imanueli; Yaani, Mungu pamoja nasi.

Kuzaliwa kwa Kristo kunatukumbusha kwamba Mungu yu pamoja nasi.

Kama Wakristo, hakikisho letu kuu ni kwamba hatuishi bila Mungu katika ulimwengu huu. Muumba wa mbingu na nchi yuko pamoja nasi na yuko kwa ajili yetu.

Kwa nini imani hizi za Emmanueli ni muhimu sana?

Katika 2 Wafalme 18:7, Biblia inasema hivi kuhusu Mfalme Hezekia, “Naye BWANA akawa pamoja naye, kila alikokwenda alifanikiwa; tena alimwasi mfalme wa Ashuru, wala hakumtumikia.” Ina maana kwamba kwa sababu Mungu yu pamoja nasi, mafanikio ni sehemu yetu katika Kristo.

Katika Matendo 10:38, maandiko yanasema juu ya Kristo, “jinsi Mungu alivyomtia mafuta kwa Roho Mtakatifu na nguvu: naye akazunguka huko na huko, akitenda kazi njema na kuponya wote walioonewa na Ibilisi; kwa maana Mungu alikuwa pamoja naye.”

Mungu anapokuwa na mwanadamu, mtu huyo hufanya mema kila mahali anapokwenda. Dhima za Emmanueli zinatukumbusha kwamba sisi ni majibu ya maombi ya watu.

Kamwe usiishi maisha yako kama mtu ambaye hana Mungu pamoja naye. Katika shughuli zako zote na kazi yako, jikumbushe kwamba Mungu yu pamoja nawe. Anakufanikisha na kukufanya kuwa jibu kwa wengi. Haleluya!

MASOMO YA ZIADA: Matendo 10:38, 2 Wafalme 18:7

UJUMBE MKUU: Dhima za Emmanueli zinatukumbusha kuwa sisi ni majibu ya maombi ya watu.

SALA: Baba Mpenzi, Nakushukuru kwa ukweli huu. Siko peke yangu! Ninaishi maisha yangu nikifahamu ukweli huu kwa ukamilifu. Ninawatumikia na kuwasaidia wale walio karibu nami, si kwa nguvu zangu bali kwa ufahamu kwamba Wewe u pamoja nami. Katika jina la Yesu, Amina.
