Romans 12:1-2; Hebrews 5:12-14
Brethren! It’s time for us to reflect and examine ourselves, whether we are still in the faith…
Watch your values (belief/operating system), they shape your decisions, your decisions determine your actions; your actions graduate to your habits… your habits eventually determine your perception to life…
Some of the areas in which we need to examine our value systems include the following:
Kingdom Culture/Lifestyle
Seek first, the Kingdom of God and His righteousness… Matt. 6:33; 5:6
Are you a kingdom addict?
Are your priorities rightly set? Are you a seeker of God? Do you thirst and hunger for His righteousness?
Do you care about your spiritual life, are you growing in the faith?
Is your lifestyle leading/attracting others to Christ or sending people away from Christ?
2 Cor. 13:5
A rightly developed value system gives room for a well-balanced growth.
Let your value system be built on prayer and the Word of God.
Purity/chastity… it’s beyond just being moral, but living a Godly inspired life by grace (Joseph in Potiphar’s house)

Our value systems have to be thoroughly checked from time to time, to ensure that we are in perfect synch with the mind of the Spirit (being constantly renewed in the spirit of your mind), Ephesians 4:23.
May the Lord enable us to run with diligence, the race that has been set before us, shedding every unnecessary weights that easily beset us.
