ADD VALUES TO YOURSELF

Post date: Feb 27, 2013 5:19:43 AM

One of the most precious gifts you will ever receive is not a sack of gold or precious metal worth billions in the market, it is the life you already have right now, that which was freely given you the day you were conceived in your mother’s womb by the Almighty Father. The life you have can never be priced; no amount of money can adequately be given in exchange. It was divinely purposed, divinely priced, divinely given and it is divinely sustained. That was the reason Christ had to pay for its ransomed with His blood when the devil came and compromised its value.

It is only your belief, acceptance and your continuous practice of wrong values, wrong ideas and thoughts when things happen contrary to your expectations, holding in your heart wrong words about you from wrong the people, and the presence and power of sin that has the ability to compromising the value of your life, and will surely drift it in a direction that will not glory God and will not give you the joy you expect. It is not the lack of opportunity, the disappointment and delays you experience, the poverty or the words and thoughts of others about you, it is all you.

To fully restore the value of that given life to what God said and made originally in and for you, Christ Jesus came into the world. And He said; “I am the Way and the Truth and the Life; no one comes to the Father except by (through) Me. If you had known Me, you would also have known My Father. From now on, you know Him and have seen Him.” John 14:6-7. Adding the right values will definitely require you following the ways Christ had said and made for you.

In giving you salvation, Christ also gave you the power to add tangible and distinguishing values to your life by grace thereafter. True and genuine salvation will definitely affect everything about you, will restore everything about you, will redeem everything the devil had stolen, that you did misplaced physically and spiritually, it will open the door to a whole new life and expectations, and above all, it will open the door of heaven for you, but until that glorious day, you will have the need of always adding spiritual and physical values to your life.

What kind of life are you living today? God’s planned life for you, your desired designed life, or the life being determined by the wrong or right words of men. Life is much more than a basket of roses, more than the words of men and far more than your best thoughts and ideas. Unfortunately many people are living in the words of others thereby crying and lamenting. Many are living in extreme bitterness, frustration and many great regrets. Those are not the plans of God for your life, you are better than that and well able to add values to yourself despite all the odds you will ever come to experience. Jesus said: “Blessed (happy, to be envied and spiritually prosperous with life-joy and satisfaction in God’s favor and salvation, regardless of your outward conditions) are you when people revile you and persecute you and say all kinds of evil things against you falsely on My account.” Matthew 5:11

Despite what you are seeing, do not quit and do not give up, prepare to live in your expected tomorrow by adding values to your life today. Prepare to live in your dreams, in your desires, and in the promises of God for you. People will always see something bad in you and seek to pull you off track, but be determined and resolve in yourself, whatever they see in me, My God had not seen it; I refuse to accept it and I will not give up adding values. When I am down, I will wake up, take the dust off me, add more values to myself and move on. “For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.” 2 Peter 1:8. You are worth the value you add to yourself. You might not have all that is required, but refuse to remain like yesterday, seek added personal values each day. If you remain as yesterday, you will soon be obsolete. The values you add to yourself today, opens the door for new opportunity you desire. Life is so precious, don’t sit back because of lack and what people are saying and doing to you, always add values to it. For prayer Click here
