Develop Spiritual Insight
Bible passage: 2 Kings 6:8-17
“8. Now the king of Aram was at war with Israel. After conferring with his officers, he said, "I will set up my camp in such and such a place." 9. The man of God sent word to the king of Israel: "Beware of passing that place, because the Arameans are going down there." 10. So the king of Israel checked on the place indicated by the man of God. Time and again Elisha warned the king, so that he was on his guard in such places. "
The factors that enabled human history to develop so remarkably include humanity’s effort to see better.
There is a book dealing with this subject called ‘Insight Over Ability’. The effort to see better - this has created so many things. For example, eyeglasses were invented to correct weak eyesight.
Eyeglasses are truly one of the most essential tools. If one cannot see the Bible or read text, how can one prepare a sermon? There are glasses used for reading books, and for preaching, one must use multifocal glasses. Since one must look at the sermon manuscript while also looking at the congregation, multifocal glasses are necessary.
Kuza Ufahamu wa Kiroho
Andiko la Biblia: 2 Wafalme 6:8–17
“8. Basi mfalme wa Shamu alikuwa akipigana na Israeli; akashauriana na watumishi wake, akasema, ‘Nitaweka kambi yangu mahali fulani.’ 9. Yule mtu wa Mungu akatuma ujumbe kwa mfalme wa Israeli, akisema, ‘Jihadhari usipite mahali hapa, kwa maana Washami wanashukia huko.’ 10. Basi mfalme wa Israeli akapeleka watu mahali alipoonywa na mtu wa Mungu. Elisha akamwonya tena na tena mfalme, naye akawa mwangalifu katika maeneo hayo.”
Miongoni mwa mambo yaliyowezesha historia ya wanadamu kuendelea kwa namna ya ajabu ni jitihada za watu za kuona vizuri zaidi.
Kuna kitabu kinachozungumzia jambo hili kinachoitwa *Insight Over Ability*. Jitihada za kuona vizuri zaidi zimezalisha vitu vingi. Kwa mfano, miwani ilibuniwa ili kurekebisha uoni hafifu.
Miwani ni mojawapo ya vifaa muhimu sana. Mtu asipoweza kuona Biblia au kusoma maandishi, ataandaaje hubiri? Kuna miwani ya kusomea vitabu, na kwa kuhubiri mtu huhitaji miwani yenye lenzi za umbali tofauti. Kwa kuwa mhubiri lazima aangalie maandishi ya hubiri na pia kusanyiko, miwani ya lenzi nyingi inahitajika.
