Enye yeeNdumiso ezifundwa rhoqo kwiZibhalo ngama-51, ebhalwe emva kokuba uDavide ekrexezile. Wawa esihlalweni sobukratshi ngamadolo akhe wambongoza uThixo ukuba ahlambulule intliziyo yakhe. Kwaye uDavide wayenokukwenza oko kuba wayephethe isitshixo sakhe sokuthobeka.

Owu Thixo, umoya wam wonakele; intliziyo etyumkileyo, ethobekileyo, Thixo, akuyi kuyidela. (INdumiso 51:19)

Owu mphefumlo othandekayo usongelwe ziintlungu zetyala lakho kunye nesono! Uzibetha ngeentsimbi zentliziyo yakho, uqwengwe bubudenge besono sakho. Kodwa yintoni le inkcitho yexesha, yinkcitho engakanani le! Kungenxa yokuba xa umkhonto wagqobhoza iNgcwele yeentliziyo zikaYesu, wenza ukuvula imilo yesitshixo sokungena eluntwini, kwaye ukuthobeka kunokuvula. Akukho namnye Uyakucinywa ophethe esi sitshixo.

UThixo uyabachasa abanekratshi, kodwa ubapha abo bathobekileyo. (Yakobi 4: 6)

Nokuba umphefumlo uvalelwe ngumkhwa, ugqilazwe bububi, ukhathazwa bubuthathaka unokubuyela kwiNhliziyo yakhe enenceba ukuba uyasithatha esi sitshixo sincinci, “Abo bathembela kuwe abanakuze babe neentloni” (ukufunda okokuqala).

Isuka kulowo sele 'engcamle wakubona ukulunga kweNkosi' ^[1]cf. INdumiso 34: 9 kodwa ukhethe isiqhamo esalelweyo sehlabathi. UThixo unenceba! UThixo unenceba! Kukangaphi endamkela, kwaye ngothando noxolo olugqwesa konke ukuqonda, uphilise umphefumlo wam kaninzi-ninzi. Kuba ubenzela inceba abathobekileyo amaxesha amaninzi njengoko bacelayo, ewe “Hayi kasixhenxe, kodwa ngamashumi asixhenxe anesixhenxe” (IVangeli yanamhlanje).

Kwaye ngaphezulu koko, isitshixo sokuthobeka siqhubeka nokuvula ubuncwane boBulumko, iimfihlelo zikaThixo.

Abathobekileyo ubakhokelela kokusesikweni, abafundise indlela yakhe abalulamileyo. (INdumiso yanamhlanje)
