Study the Principle of Learning: Exercise Faith in Jesus Christ

Muab Siab rau Ntseeg Yexus Khetos

Jesus Christ can help me do all things when I exercise faith in Him.

Yexus Khetos pab tau kuv ua txhua yam thaum kuv muab siab rau ntseeg Nws.

Yexus Khetos yog Vajtswv Leej Tub. Nws muaj hwj chim tag nrho. Nyob hauv cov vaj lug kub, peb nyeem txog ib tug txiv neej uas tau muab siab rau ntseeg Yexus Khetos. Tus txiv neej tus me nyuam muaj mob heev thiab tsis muaj leej twg uas txawj kho nws. Tus txiv tsev no thov Yexus kho nws tus me nyuam zoo. Yexus qhia nws tias:

“Yog leej twg ntseeg, kuv yeej ua tau txhua yam huv tib si. … Tam sim ntawd tus me tub leej txiv hais tias, Kuv ntseeg tiam sis tsis txaus, thov koj pab kom kuv muaj kev ntseeg ntxiv. … Yexus cev tes mus tuav nkaus tus metub txhais tes thiab rub nws sawv, ces nws txawm sawv tsees sawv ntsug” (Malakaus 9:23–24, 27).

Ib yam li tus txiv neej no, cia li siv kev cia siab thiab kev ntseeg uas koj muaj lawm. Ces koj txoj kev ntseeg yuav loj tuaj dhau los ntawm kev thov Vajtswv thiab kev nyeem cov vaj lug kub. Koj txoj kev ntseeg kuj yuav loj zuj zus thaum koj sim kawm lus Askiv. Pib ntawm tej yam uas koj paub tam sim no. Tsom ntsoov rau tej yam uas koj txawj hais ua lus Askiv, thiab hais ntau npaum li koj hais tau. Sim mloog, nyeem, hais lus, thiab sau ntawv Askiv txhua hnub. Thaum koj muab siab rau ntseeg kom ua zoo npaum li koj ua taus, Nws yuav pab koj txoj kev ntseeg loj tuaj.

Ponder

• Koj yuav ua li cas kom muab siab rau ntseeg Yexus Khetos?

• Koj yuav ua li cas kom koj txoj kev ntseeg loj tuaj thaum koj kawm lus Askiv?
