What is Your Value!! ( 1 of 5)
Value is defined as worth, importance and significance.
We must regularly evaluate our actions and listen to how other people define our contributions.
Which adjectives are used to describe your life: loving, kind, helpful, or evil-spirited, mean and lazy?
Other factors which determine our value are: how well we value and esteem others, if we have a servant's heart and do we make wise, productive and caring decisions?
1Corinthians 11:31- But if we would examine ourselves, we would not be judged by God in this way.
To be viewed as being valued will entail being prayerful of how we speak to people; using compassionate and loving words.
We must demonstrate value for others and maximize our opportunities to bless their lives.

What is Your Value!! (2 of 5)
At the end of the day, we should evaluate our day as to our effectiveness and make necessary changes to be kinder, loving, and more Christ- like.
The song by Mahalia Jackson-"If I Could Help Somebody" as I travel along, then my living shall not be in vain, should be the theme of our lives!
What is Your Value?
Some people have incorrectly concluded that their actions don't matter because people won't remember them anyway.
However, that is not true.
Everyone will be remembered for how they lived their lives.
So we must constantly accept the Lord's help which He extends to us to be effective and victorious, which will increase our life value.
He will assist us to walk in His Word, to keep our mouths shut, to have pleasant attitudes and will help us to be patient as we deal with one another.

What is Your Value!! (3 of 5)
Phil. 2:3-Don't be selfish; don't try to impress others. Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourselves.
4-Don't look out only for your own interests, but take an interest in others, too.
We can't be self-centered-only valuing what we think, say and decide to do.
Matthew 23:11-The greatest among you must be a servant.
Serving others is the way of obtaining an honored definition of one's value.
To have an esteemed (respected, honored and valued) title cannot be verbally demanded; but, through helpful actions, it will be earned.
Even those who are jealous of you may not admit it publicly, but they will recognize the honored position you walk in.
Gifted people must use their God-Given gifts and talents for the benefit of others.

What is Your Value!! (4 of 5)
Benefits of having an honorable life-image are found in
Luke 7:2-NLT- At that time the highly valued slave of a Roman officer was sick and near death.
[Because he was an honest, upright, faithful, and helpful servant; the slave was highly valued and beloved by the Roman Officer.]
3- When the officer heard about Jesus, he sent some respected Jewish elders to ask Him to come and heal his slave.
[This was because of how the slave had lived his life and the choices he made.]
4- So they earnestly begged Jesus to help the man. "If anyone deserves your help, he does," they said,
5-"for he loves the Jewish people and even built a synagogue for us."
They went to Jesus, on the slave's behalf, to beseech (ask, beg, to plead) Jesus to come and heal the servant.
Because of how the slave had lived his life and the good he did for others; the Officers and Elders were motivated to act on his behalf.

What is Your Value!! (5 of 5)
Will someone go on your behalf?
Will someone care enough to utilize their time and resources for your behalf?
Instead of envying how others are valued; cultivate an honorable life-image, one of significant value and worth.
This means purposing to be loving, kind and caring and not thinking so highly of ourselves to the point that we won't help somebody else.
Each of us has a birth date and a demise date.
There is a dash in between those dates, allowing our life's value to fill in the blanks.
What story will your dash tell of your life?
What legacy will be left of your actions?
Will people fondly reflect of your memory or be glad that you are gone?
What is Your Value?
It will be determined by how we live our lives!!
God Bless!

Words from the Heart!
Thank Pastor Ma. The nuggets have really transformed me, the family, church and the Community. I have successfully launched an academy, Life Is Spiritual Academy, an institute for empowering widows, orphans, school dropouts, unemployed people, ministers of the Gospel. At this stage we are running it using principles from the Nuggets and what you continue to teach. As discussed and highlighted before our Dr. Tonya Lewis in Africa Initiative is building capacity in teaching the beloved saints that all solutions are found in the Word of God and life is better when the inner man is transformed. It is the spirit man who matters most in dominating our World and circumstances. So I have managed to enroll our first students who are undergoing a three months course on Spiritual Leadership; Soul Winning, Etiquette and personal effectiveness, Kingdom Financial Liberty, Church planting and Pioneering, Priestly Ministry etc. We are grateful for your love.
Pastor C M
Hey Dr. Lewis: YES WE MUST! That is a real good Word from the Lord. We must be faithful to our God and Father at all times! He is a great God and we must live for Him, in Him and through Him at all times keep Him on our minds and in our hearts! Thanks for thinking of me you are so faithful with the News Letter, and it is such a comfort to me. Evangelist L V Thanks Dr. T. Yes to survive I know I must trust Daddy God. I thank Him for all He has done and is going to do. The entire message was good. All the nice pictures women gathering were so nice. R S
