Dɛn Na Woyɛ a Ɛbɛma Onyankopɔn Atie Wo Mpaebɔ?
Yehowa Nyankopɔn yɛ “mpaebɔ Tiefo.” (Dwom 65:2) Baabiara a yɛwɔ no, yebetumi abɔ no mpae bere biara. Yebetumi abɔ mpae ama apue yɛn ano, anaa yɛabɔ wɔ yɛn tirim. Yehowa pɛ sɛ yɛfrɛ no yɛn “Agya,” na nea ɛte ne sɛ, Agya biara ne no nsɛ. (Mateo 6:9) Yehowa dɔ yɛn, enti wakyerɛ yɛn sɛnea ɛsɛ sɛ yɛbɔ no mpae, na ama watie yɛn.
ƐSƐ SƐ WOFA YESU SO BƆ YEHOWA MPAE
“Biribiara a mubebisa Agya no ɔde bɛma mo wɔ me din mu.”—Yohane 16:23.
Asɛm a Yesu kae yi ma yehu sɛ, Yehowa mpɛ sɛ yɛfa ahoni, ahotefo, abɔfo, anaa nananom a wɔawuwu so bɔ no mpae. Mmom, ɔpɛ sɛ yɛbɔ no mpae wɔ Yesu Kristo din mu. Sɛ yɛbɔ Onyankopɔn mpae wɔ Yesu din mu a, ɛkyerɛ sɛ yegye tom sɛ, nea Yesu bɛyɛ maa nnipa nti na Onyankopɔn tie yɛn mpaebɔ. Yesu kaa sɛ: “Obiara mma Agya no nkyɛn gye sɛ ɔnam me so.”—Yohane 14:6.
FI WO KOMA MU KASA
“Munyi mo koma mu nsɛm adi nkyerɛ no.”—Dwom 62:8.
Sɛ yɛrebɔ Yehowa mpae a, ɛsɛ sɛ yɛne no kasa te sɛ nea yɛne yɛn agya a ɔdɔ yɛn rekasa. Ɛsɛ sɛ yefi yɛn koma mu ne no kasa wɔ obu mu, na ɛnsɛ sɛ yɛhwɛ nhoma bi a wɔakyerɛw mpaebɔ agu mu so ne no kasa, anaasɛ yɛkyere nsɛm bi gu yɛn tirim woro gu hɔ ara kɛkɛ.
ƐSƐ SƐ WO MPAEBƆ NE ONYANKOPƆN APƐDE HYIA
“Biribiara a yebisa sɛnea n’apɛde te no, otie yɛn.”—1 Yohane 5:14.
Biribiara a Yehowa Nyankopɔn abɔ ne tirim sɛ ɔbɛyɛ ama yɛn, ne nea ɔpɛ sɛ yɛn nso yɛyɛ ma no no, waka ne nyinaa wɔ Bible mu. Enti sɛ Onyankopɔn betie yɛn mpaebɔ a, ɛsɛ sɛ yɛma ɛne “n’apɛde” hyia.

Enti yebetumi abɔ mpae ama yɛn kunu, yɛn yere, yɛn mma, yɛn abusuafo, ne yɛn nnamfo. Ɔsomafo Yakobo kaa sɛ: “Mommɔ mpae mma mo ho.”—Yakobo 5:16.
