Values To Learn In Order To Build Ourselves Up To Last

1. Values of Loyalty

Loyalty is the quality of being firm in your friendship or support for someone or something. If we believe that there is only one God in this world, we will align ourselves to this one God. The same applies in your place of work. There are many companies that you can work for but for you to stay on in the same place will be greatly influenced by the leader of the company. If the CEO of the company has great visions for the company, the employees will align themselves towards the same visions. The vision of the CEO will become the vision of the employees, too. No matter what may happen, the visions and the direction remain. This is loyalty, being firm no matter how great the storm is.

2. Values of Commitment (Servanthood)

Commitment is a strong belief in an idea or system, especially when it is shown by your actions and behaviour. The value of commitment is to be committed to the authority you are aligned with. This commitment is demonstrated through what you do and say. It is important to teach commitment to the people of God or else nothing can be built. If you want to build a family that will last, you must be committed to making it work.

3. Values of Respect (Submission to Authority)

The value of respect is proper submission to authority. There is a proper order of relationship. If you do not understand this, the relationship will be broken up. The things that you do not guard, you will loose. Adam is a good example. He did not guard the relationship he has with God. He watched and allowed Eve to fall into the deception. In the place where God places you with authority over you, you do not elevate yourself to the same level as the authority placed over you. This is wrong. If you do, you allow the seed of seduction to be planted and it is an act of rebellion.

Knowledge can puff up a person. If a person works hard and gets promoted, he unconsciously begins to think his promotion is due to his hard works and by his own efforts. He will begin to think that he knows better than his boss. However, he does not realize that his promotion was due to his boss giving him authority to do the work. He was delegated the job, otherwise there will be no chance for him to be recognised in his works and be promoted. We have to guard ourselves against pride for it breeds familiarity and contentious in the office and this is wrong.

Jesus is an example of humility. Philippians 2:5-11 tells us clearly of Jesus’ humility where He humbles Himself and obeys God to the point of death. He was different from Lucifer. Lucifer wanted to be equal with God. Lucifer was a created being but Jesus was not. It was clear in Philippians that Jesus is equal with God but He chooses to submit Himself to the authority of God. Without this submission to authority and humility of God, His death on the cross and God’s redemption plan will not happen.
