2 kwabaseKorinte 4

Amandla avela evangelini ayaqinisa ezinhluphekweni nasezingozini

7Kepha le ngcebo sinayo ezitsheni zebumba, ukuze ubukhulu bamandla obukhulu kakhulu bube ngobukaNkulunkulu, bungabi ngobuvela kithi. 8Siyacindezelwa nxazonke, kodwa asinyinyekile; siyaxakeka, kodwa asidikibali; 9siyazingelwa, kodwa asidelwa; siwiswa phansi, kodwa asibhujiswa; 10sithwele njalonjalo emzimbeni wethu ukufa kukaJesu, ukuze nokuphila kukaJesu kubonakaliswe emzimbeni wethu. 11Ngokuba sisaphila sinikelwa njalo ekufeni ngenxa kaJesu, ukuze nokuphila kukaJesu kubonakaliswe enyameni yethu efayo. 12Kanjalo kusebenza ukufa kithina, kepha kinina ukuphila.

2 kwabaseKorinte 4:7-12ZUL59NOVula kumfundi weBhayibheli

We are not called to be the Potter and solve all that is not Godly, but to be the fragile clay pot moulded by the Potter to do great things in difficult times.

We may see darkness surrounding us, but God’s light promises to shine through. Our Christian identity will never be found in succumbing to the darkness, but in receiving, carrying, and sharing the GODLY TREASURE with those in darkness. Let the strength of God’s treasure be yours and may your faith be tested positive now and always.
