THE GODLY
CHOICES OF CHRISTIANS THAT ENSURE PLEASANTNESS AND PEACE IN THE CHRISTIAN LIFE
(Ang mga
maka-Diyos na pagpipilian ng mga Kristiyano na magtitiyak ng kasiyahan at
kapayapaan sa buhay Kristiyano)
PROVERBS 3:17 “Her ways [are] ways of
pleasantness, and all her paths [are] peace.”
Panimula:
a. Kinukumpirma ng Diyos sa
Kanyang mga anak na kung pipiliin ng isang Kristiyano na sundin ang Kanyang
payo sa atin, tinitiyak Niya sa atin na ating makakamtan ang isang kasiya-siya
at mapayapang buhay sa ating buhay Kristiyano.
b. Ngunit binigyan tayo ng
Diyos ng isang paunang babala na kung hindi natin papansinin at ating
tatanggihan ang Kanyang payo, malaking kaguluhan at banta ang kakahaharapin
natin sa buhay Kristiyano.
PSALMS 89:30-32 “If his children forsake my law,
and walk not in my judgments;
Pss 89:31 If they break my
statutes, and keep not my commandments;
Pss 89:32 Then will I visit their
transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes.”
Limang (5) magagandang bagay tungkol sa araling ito:
1. CHOOSING TO VALUE GOD’S WORD WILL BRING YOU
PLEASANTNESS AND PEACE
(Ang
pagpili sa pagpapahalaga sa Salita ng Diyos ay magdadala sa iyo ng kasiyahan at
kapayapaan)
PROVERBS 3:1-2 “My son, forget not my law; but
let thine heart keep my commandments:
Prov 3:2 For length of days, and
long life, and peace, shall they add to thee.”
a. Pinaaalalahanan tayo ng
Diyos na huwag kalimutan ang Kanyang salita at pinangakuan ang Kanyang mga anak
ng mahabang buhay.
b. Pinahalagahan ni Haring
David ang Salita ng Diyos at ginamit ito sa kanyang pang-araw-araw na matuwid
na lakad at tinawag siyang mapalad.
PSALMS 1:1-3 “Blessed [is] the man that walketh
not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor
sitteth in the seat of the scornful. a
Pss 1:2 But his delight [is] in
the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.
Pss 1:3 And he shall be like a
tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his
season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.”
c. Ang kagalakan ni Haring
David sa buhay Kristiyano ay ang pagninilay ng Salita ng Diyos araw-araw.
d. Maraming mga pagpapala si
Haring David mula sa Panginoon sapagkat pinahahalagahan niya ang Salita ng
Diyos.
2. CHOOSING TO CLAIM GOD’S MERCY AND TRUTH WILL ENJOY
FAVOR AND GOOD UNDERSTANDING IN HIS SIGHT
(Ang
pagpiling kailanganin ang awa at katotohanan ng Diyos ay magtatamasa ng pabor
at mabuting pag-unawa sa Kanyang paningin)
PROVERBS 3:3-4 “Let not mercy and truth forsake
thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart:
Prov 3:4 So shalt thou find favour
and good understanding in the sight of God and man.”
a. Ang Diyos ay maawain at
matapat at laging magagamit para sa anak ng Diyos na matamasa ito.
b. Nangako ang Diyos ng biyaya
at mabuting pag-unawa sa harap Niya at sa kanyang mga anak.
c. Naranasan ng iglesya sa
Jerusalem ang pabor ng Diyos pati na rin sa harap ng mga tao sa kanilang
panahon.
ACTS 2:47 “Praising God, and having favour
with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be
saved.”
3. CHOOSING TO TRUST IN THE LORD WITH ALL THEIR HEART
WILL ENJOY GOD’S PROMISE TO DIRECT THEIR PATHS
(Ang
pagpili na magtiwala sa Panginoon ng buong puso ay masisiyahan sa pangako ng
Diyos na gagabay sa kanilang mga landas)
PROVERBS 3:5-6 “Trust in the Lord with all thine
heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
Prov 3:6 In all thy ways
acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.”
a. Ang magtiwala sa Panginoon
ay katumbas ng pananampalataya sa Diyos at pangako ng Diyos na sasagutin tayo
sa ating mga panalangin sa Kanya.
MARK 11:24 “Therefore I say unto you, What
things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive [them], and ye
shall have [them].”
b. Ang Diyos ay hindi nalulugod
at naluluwalhati sa buhay ng Kristiyanong walang pananalig sa Kanya.
HEBREWS 11:6 “But without faith [it is]
impossible to please [him]: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is,
and [that] he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.”
4. CHOOSING TO FEAR GOD AND DEPART FROM EVIL WILL ENJOY
GOD’S BOUNTIFUL SPIRITUAL, PHYSICAL AND MATERIAL PROMISE
(Ang
pagpili na matakot sa Diyos at umalis mula sa kasamaan ay magtatamasa ng
masaganang pangako ng Diyos sa espirituwal, pisikal at materyal)
PROVERBS 3:7-17 “Be not wise in thine own eyes:
fear the Lord, and depart from evil.
Prov 3:8 It shall be health to thy
navel, and marrow to thy bones.
Prov 3:9 Honour the Lord with thy
substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase:
Prov 3:10 So shall thy barns be
filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine.
Prov 3:11 My son, despise not the
chastening of the Lord; neither be weary of his correction:
Prov 3:12 For whom the Lord loveth
he correcteth; even as a father the son [in whom] he delighteth.
Prov 3:13 Happy [is] the man
[that] findeth wisdom, and the man [that] getteth understanding.
Prov 3:14 For the merchandise of
it [is] better than the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine
gold.
Prov 3:15 She [is] more precious
than rubies: and all the things thou canst desire are not to be compared unto
her.
Prov 3:16 Length of days [is] in
her right hand; [and] in her left hand riches and honour.
Prov 3:17 Her ways [are] ways of
pleasantness, and all her paths [are] peace.”
a. Ang pagpili at pagganap ng
kalooban ng Diyos ay totoong may katiyakan na mararanasan ang lahat ng
pagpapala ng Diyos sa ating buhay Kristiyano.
1TIMOTHY 1:12 “And I thank Christ Jesus our
Lord, who hath enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the
ministry;”
b. Ang ating pagsunod sa
kalooban ng Diyos ay hindi mahirap malaman dahil ito ay nasa Kanyang Salita.
Maiwawasto nito kung nagkakamali tayo sa ating buhay Kristiyano.
PROVERBS 3:11-12 “My son, despise not the
chastening of the Lord; neither be weary of his correction:
Prov 3:12 For whom the Lord loveth
he correcteth; even as a father the son [in whom] he delighteth.”
Pangwakas:
Ang kaligayahan at kapayapaan ay laging magagamit sa Kristiyanong
pinipili na sundin ang kalooban ng Diyos sa kanilang buhay.
PROVERBS 3:16-17 “Length of days [is] in her right
hand; [and] in her left hand riches and honour.
Prov 3:17 Her ways [are] ways of
pleasantness, and all her paths [are] peace.”
