Integrity

“Integrity”
Blessings folk!
We saw yesterday…
- evil men do not understand justice
- those who seek the Lord understand justice completely
This is glorious truth.
Are you seeking the Lord?
Do you seek to understand?
If we seek to understand only in the flesh we will fail.
Seek the Lord!
He will reveal.
The next Proverb gives a truth that goes against the mind of the world…
Pro 28:6
Better is a poor man who walks in his integrity
than a rich man who is crooked in his ways.
ESV
The world…and sadly, many “believers”…are in constant pursuit of more.
More riches.
More power.
More pleasure.
Such is not the way of the kingdom.
The walk of the Kingdom is a walk of integrity…even if it means being poor.
Gaining riches by being “crooked in his ways” is a dead-end pursuit.
Now, be careful.
One who walks in integrity can be rich.
There are many Biblical examples.
There are more examples from our lives!
Each of us is richer than the vast majority of mankind could have fathomed.
Also, just because one is poor is not an indicator of integrity.
Walk in the integrity of the Lord.
Rejoice in all He does in and through you.
Choose integrity.
Reject crookedness.
Selah!
