Abantu akumele bachaze umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu; ngaphezu kwalokho, abantu abakwazi ukuchaza umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu. Emehlweni kaNkulunkulu, umuntu mncane ngisho kunentuthwane, ngakho umuntu angawuqonda kanjani umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu? Labo abaphikelelayo bethi, “uNkulunkulu akasebenzi ngale ndlela noma ngaleya ndlela” noma “uNkulunkulu ufana nalokhu noma lokhuya”—ingabe bonke abaqhoshi? Sonke kumele sazi ukuthi abantu abayinyama, bonke uSathane ubenze bakhohlakala. Kungokwemvelo kubo ukuphikisana noNkulunkulu, futhi abalingani noNkulunkulu, ingasaphathwa eyokunikeza iseluleko ngomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu.

Njengoba sizama ukufuna uNkulunkulu ngeke sikwazi ukufaka ukuqonda kwethu emsebenzini kaNkulunkulu ukuze uNkulunkulu akubheke, kanjalo akumele sisebenzise isimo sethu esikhohlakele sizame ukuphikisa umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu ngenhloso. Ingabe lokho ngeke kusenze abaphikikrestu? Abantu abanjalo bangasho kanjani ukuthi bakholelwa kuNkulunkulu? Njengoba sikholelwa ukuthi ukhona uNkulunkulu, futhi njengoba sifisa ukumanelisa nokumbona, kumele sifune indlela yeqiniso, futhi sibheke indlela yokuvumelana noNkulunkulu. Akumele sibe ontamo-lukhuni siphikisane noNkulunkulu; yini enhle engavela ngokwenza kanjalo?
Namuhla, uNkulunkulu unomsebenzi omusha. Kungenzeka ungawamukeli la mazwi, angezwakala engavamisile kuwe, kodwa ngineluleka ukuba ningavezi ubunina bemvelo, ngoba yilabo abalambele nabomele ukulunga phambi kukaNkulunkulu abangathola iqiniso, futhi yilabo kuphela abazinikele ngeqiniso abangase bakhanyiselwe futhi baqondiswe uNkulunkulu. Akukho okuzovela ngokufuna iqiniso ngokuklwebhana. Imiphumela sizoyithola kuphela uma sifuna ngokuthula. Uma ngithi “Namuhla, uNkulunkulu unomsebenzi omusha,” ngibhekisele ekubuyeni kukaNkulunkulu enyameni. Mhlawumbe awunandaba nala mazwi, kungenzeka uyawazonda, noma unentshisekelo ngawo. Noma ngabe yikuphi, ngithemba ukuthi bonke laba abafisa ukuvela kukaNkulunkulu bangabhekana naleli qiniso balicabangisise. Kungcono ukungajahi ukufinyelela eziphethweni. Lena yindlela abantu abahlakaniphile okumele benze ngayo.
