The Worthy King (Episode 1) - Danny Steyne

Why we do what we do.

All of us have values ... many of values that people around the world live with and develop are related to the well-being of our own lives and families and communities. That is how our priorities are formed. Usually a quick glance at expenditures we make will show what we truly value. We can "say" our values are different but in fact what we invest in declares very loudly what we really believe in and want.
When the Kingdom comes in view... we must shift our values to what God wants... values that determine our obedience to Jesus ("if you love Me, you will obey My commandments")... different values begin to shape our lives. Values like worship and relationships and generosity and mercy all become a part of that value system. But there is first an understanding of WHY these values are so important... higher and more important than any... and it's based upon our understanding WHY we do what we do.
