TRUE GOVERNMENT
People are fickle in that they are easily persuaded to change their minds. Their values have been compromised so that they are very malleable. It is time that good values are brought back into the culture. When values are compromised or given up it leads to a slow rot and decay. This then leads to chaos and break up of society. It is values that keep a group together. Commitment to values is the girdle that keeps the group moving in the right direction. So also a vision keeps the group pulling in the same direction. A break down of any of these leads to a division and crumpling of the system. Yet values have to be possessed and be the hard wiring of each individual otherwise it is only window dressing. Much of what is seen and said is window dressing. When the crisis comes then these values are put to the test. Conflict is one indicator of values of the system being challenged. If the test fails then one needs to revisit the values of the system and reinforce it otherwise further breakdown will occur. The Kingdom of God is based on a value system of the sacrificial offering of Christ. There is no greater value then to lay down one’s life for another. The Kingdom of God is righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. It is in the Holy Spirit or by the Spirit that these values can be upheld. Therefore with a Kingdom mindset you are set to rule the world through His Spirit in you.
