Yoane 10 - MB & HBN

Addictions come in many shapes and forms, whether it’s lust, alcohol, substances, gambling, gaming, or even excessive use of your mobile phone and social media. There is professional help to get as well as counselling from your priest or pastor.

Also, read the Bible and lay your addiction before God in prayer. Here are some passages from the Word of God to reflect upon.

James 1:14-15 But each person is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desire. Then desire when it has conceived gives birth to sin, and sin when it is fully grown brings forth death.

We all have weaknesses within us that can make us fall and lead to an addiction. Acknowledging this, and admitting that you struggle with addiction is an important step to be free from it.

1 John 2:16 For all that is in the world—the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride of life—is not from the Father but is from the world.

Addictions don’t come from God, but from the world and our desires, lusts and pride. We can rely on God wanting us to be free from any addiction.

1 Corinthians 10:13 No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.

You may feel that you can’t break your addiction. But the Bible tells us that God can. God will provide the way of escape. Turn to God, turn from your addiction. Let God fill you with his presence.

1 Corinthians 6:12 “All things are lawful for me,” but not all things are helpful. “All things are lawful for me,” but I will not be dominated by anything.

Addiction is many times when something takes control over you. Those things that are not helpful in your life and dominate your thoughts and desires you may need to cut out of your life.

1 Peter 2:11 Beloved, I urge you as sojourners and exiles to abstain from the passions of the flesh, which wage war against your soul.

Addictions come from this world and not from God. In the end, addictions replace God as the number one in our lives. It’s not just about addictions, but also about our souls.

Matthew 6:13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

Lay your struggles before God. Ask for God’s protection and deliverance.

John 8:36 So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.

This is the promise of Jesus Christ, that when he sets us free, it is real freedom.

This article is not intended as a replacement for medical or therapeutic help or treatment for addiction, but a complement and inspiration to those who battle addiction.

Lapidriopi Timele Lekye'ba ro

1 Yesu atate ekye: “Ma ugu taŋgye iti ämiri: 'dise ci kote gyolo timele roya dereŋwa yasi, oko tu gwo vo to aza yasi, orivoya kugu yi ago ŋgatopa'ba yi. 2 Oko 'dise kabe oci dereŋwa yasi orivoya lekye'ba timele ro. 3 Dereŋwa gaga'ba pi dereŋwa te ndäri, timele eri läzi ndaro ndi ondro nda kate timele modo ndaro ro uzi ävuru si owo, ago nda oro ànya te tesi. 4 Ondro nda kolofo ànya te tesi oko, nda 'dete käti ànyari, ago timele sote nda vo, tana ànya niyi drî ndaro te. 5 Ànya osonayi ko 'di to vo, oko ànya umuna ṛo pere ni 'di inye 'do ri, tana ànya niyi drî ndaro ko.” 6 Yesu iti lapidri ono te ànyari, oko ànya niyi takaci tase nda kusube ana ro ko.

Yesu Lekye'ba Kado yi

7 Ago Yesu atate to'di ekye: “Ma ugu taŋgye iti ämiri. Ma orivoya dereŋwa timele ro owo. 8 Azaka se cini kikyibe käti ni märi orivoya kuguyi ago ŋgatopa'bai, oko timele eri ta ànyaro kote. 9 Ma orivoya dereŋwa yi. Nda se kabe oci ma ya si apana ndi, nda ocina ndi ago ofona ndi tesi ago usuna lowo ndi. 10 Kugu ka ikyi toto ŋga kugune, ufune ago perene. Mikyite tana nyà'do robe adri be; adri se parandra be.

11 “Ma orivoya ni lekye'ba kado yi, se ṛo olebe odrane ta timele rota. 12 Mano se kabe päläti uruuru, se ko lekye'ba yi ago timele ko modo ndaro ro, kondre ihwi be ikyivoya, nda e'be timele te ago mu ṛo umu; ago ihwi ru timele te ago pere ànya te. 13 Päläti uru'ba mute tana nda toto päläti uru'ba yi ago ti ta timele ro ko. 14 Ma orivoya ni lekye'ba kado yi, mäni timele maro ndi, ago timele maro ni ma ndi, 15 kpa oso Täpi kuni mabe ronye ago mäni Täpi be ronye, ago mozo mate odrana timele ta. 16 Timele azaka orivoya se kpa maro se ànya i'do gyolo ono ya. Beṛo märi ànya ezine kpa; ànya erinayi drî maro 'da, ago ànya a'donayi 'da gboko alo ro lekye'ba alodi be.

17 “Täpi lu ma tana ma ṛo olebe adri maro ozone, tana mago märu robe kpa to'di. 18 'Diaza ri adri maro urune ni märigyesi i'do, mozo ni dritai ro ole ma modo rosi. Ma mbara be anya ozone, ago ma mbara be ogone anya urune. Ono ni tase Täpi maro kota mabe oyene owo.”

19 Rulonyi go a'dote kpa to'di Yudai lako ta ata kwoi rota. 20 Amba ànyaro uguyi atate ekye: “Nda demona be! Nda orivoya drikoziro be! Nyà ta ndaro erina etaya?”

21 Oko azaka uguyi atate ekye: “Mano demona be unina ko atane oso nonye. Demona unina voondre ozone lidri miako ro ri eŋwanye ya?”

Yudai Ga Yesu Tezo

22 Te orivoya meṛi si, ago Karama Yekalu Äṛu ro a te oyena Yerusalema ya. 23 Yesu ka ugu aba ndiṛi Solomo ro Yekalu ya yasi, 24 ondro lidri kotokalate ŋgulu nda lomvo oko ejiyitate ekye: “Nya ama o'ba ugu a'done wiriwiriro tuna mu'du eŋwanye ya? Nyiti ta ŋbelero ämäri: inye'do mi Mesiya owo ya?”

25 Yesu zatadrite ekye: “Miti ta ṛote nja ämiri, oko mìle ko omane ta maro ya. Taoye se mabe oyena drikaca Täpi maro rosi ka ta maro itina, 26 oko mìle ko omane, tana ami ko orivoya timele maro. 27 Timele maro ka drî maro eri, mäni ànya ndi, ago ànya soyi ndi mavo. 28 Ma adri äduako ozo ànyari, ago ànya odrana ko alona. 'Diaza alo unina ko ànya ivune ni märigyesi. 29 Ŋgase Täpi maro kozote märi orivoya 'desipara ndrani ŋga cini ri, ago 'diaza alo unina ko ànya ivune ni Täpi maro rigyesi. 30 Täpi ndi mabe orivoya alo.”

31 'Dooko lidri go ruyi kuniŋwà te nda ovoza sina. 32 Yesu atate ànyari ekye: “Maye taoye amba kado te ami milesi se Täpi kozote märi oyene; taoye kwoi se eŋwani nyà ma ovo tana roya?”

33 Ànya zayitadrite ekye: “Mà ko mi ovo kuni si ta tase aza kado oye rota, oko ta Lu o'da rota ayani! Mi orivoya toto lidri yi, oko nya ojo andivo miro o'bane a'done Lu ro!”

34 Yesu zatadrite ekye: “Egyitate Ota modo amiro roya anjioko Lu atate ekye: ‘Ami orivoya lui.’ 35 Mä̀ni ndi anjioko tase taegyi kabe atana orivoya endaro äduako; ago Lu zi lidri se kai te lui, lidri se ozo lazo ndaro te ànyari ono. 36 Oko ta maro ta, Täpi nji ma te ago ezo ma te 'bädri ya. Ka'do inye, nyàtana eŋwanye mìkye ma Lu o'da, tana tase matabe makye ma ni Ŋgwa Lu ro ono ta ya? 37 Ka'do inye mìma ko ma ya, ondro ka'do ma kote tase Täpi maro kolebe märi oyene oyena owo. 38 Oko ondro maye ànya ndi, ka'do inye mìma ca ko ma ya, beṛo ämiri omane taoye maro si, tana mìni ṛobe anjioko Täpi orivoya ma ya ago ma orivoya Täpi ya.”

39 Ànya go ojoyi kpate Yesu urune to'di, oko nda pavote ni drí ànyaro yasi.

40 'Dooko Yesu go oyite kovole Golo Yaradene tasi vose Yoane koye bapatisi be kigye ana ya, ago nda rite lau. 41 Lidri amba ikyite ndare, ànya atayite ekye: “Yoane ye talaro ro kote, oko tase cini nda katabe ta mano ono rota orivoya endaro.”

42 Ago amba lidri ro se lau ana mate nda ya.
