When the structural integrity of an object (a building, car, aircraft, etc) is compromised, a weak spot forms. Over time, that weak spot will give out and the structure will breakdown. The same can be applied to life. One should not compromise his core values, because as one Pastor put it, the seeds are at the core. If you compromise on the inside eventually, your life will implode.

Scripture Reference: Psalm 119:3 NLT, Proverbs 4:23 NLT

We often think of power as something we use until it is gone. Power has been given to us, but you need to act with your abilities. If you want to act on the Word of God then you need to make the Word of God part of your core values and beliefs by studying it and acting on the revelation that you find.

Scripture Reference: Luke 24:29, Mark 16:14-20

In any substance, strength comes from the core. When pressure pushes on you, you need to have enough strength to keep on living as a Christian, regardless of circumstance. The way you build a strong core is to open your Bible, actively study God’s Word and do and act on the principles that you find.

Scripture Reference: Ecclesiastes 4:12 NLT, 1 John 5:1-8
