RETAINING YOUR INTEGRITY

RETAINING YOUR INTEGRITY
Integrity is a word which means steadfast adherence to a strict moral or ethical code. It also means the quality or condition of being complete and pure. It could also mean honesty, uprightness, purity, sincerity, decency, virtuous and wholeness. To retain is to keep in possession and maintain something. Many a time people find it difficult retaining their integrity. It takes determination to stand on your integrity. Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank; therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuch that he might not defile himself. GOD is a lover of men of integrity. Daniel 1 vs. 8-9: But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank; therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuch that he might not defile himself. Now GOD had brought Daniel into favor and tender love with the prince of the eunuch. Show me a man of integrity and I will tell you he will be blessed and his children are blessed after him. Proverbs 20 vs. 7: The just man walks in his integrity, his children are blessed after him. Those who retain their integrity are preserved and guided, but the unfaithful are destroyed. Proverbs 11 vs. 3 (NIV): The integrity of the upright guides them, but the unfaithful are destroyed by their duplicity. David said in Psalm 25 vs. 21: Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on you.

         

Show me a man of integrity and I will tell you he is just and fears GOD. A man of integrity will retain his integrity no matter the circumstances he finds himself. Joseph said how can I do this great wickedness and sin against GOD? When his master’s wife casted her eyes on him and asked him to lay with her. Retaining your integrity is necessary and paramount. GOD delights in men of integrity, He fights and defends them. He favors them. Daniel was brought into favor for retaining his integrity. Joseph was also favored in the sight of the keeper of the prison. Genesis 40 vs. 9: There is none greater in this house than I; neither has he kept back anything from me but you, because you are his wife; how then can I do this great wickedness and sin against GOD? Vs. 21: But the LORD was with Joseph and shows him mercy and gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison. Have you defiled yourself and remained unfaithful? You can still be faithful and retain your integrity. It takes determination and a pure heart to retain your integrity. GOD is a merciful GOD, He can still show you his mercies; if you repent and surrender all to Him. Do share with others, if this write up has blessed you. It is well with us..

OUR DAYS.

OUR DAYS Greetings to all reading on this platform worldwide. I write on this topic OUR DAYS even as   my twin sister and I are a year older today. Glory be to GOD for a new year and a new day. A song says great is thy faithfulness, Oh LORD my father, morning by morning new mercies we see, all we have needed his hands have provided, Great is thy faithfulness. Truly great is his faithfulness toward all men. Many are not convinced of these, many don’t see something special in GOD’s faithfulness towards them. David said “Then I lay down and slept in peace and woke up safely, for the LORD was watching over me. He GOD never sleeps nor slumber over us, we just find out we sleep and before you know it, you open your eye to a new day. This is the LORD’s doing and it should be marvelous in our sights. We are to see reasons to always appreciate and thank GOD for his goodness, mercies and faithfulness. That you are alive shows He is faithful. The gift of life which is the greatest of...

FAITHFUL WHO HAD PROMISED.

FAITHFUL WHO HAD PROMISED To be faithful is to be reliable, worthy of trust and consistent with reality. A faithful man pledges and might later be unfaithful. For instance, couples make vows at the altar during their wedding, but these vows don’t stop the man or woman from breaking promises and vow. A married man finds himself cheating outside marriage despite all vows made during his wedding, because he is not faithful. You find cheating outside marriage is a common thing now, which shouldn’t be. Husbands drink from your own well, stick to her and figure out things by praying together. Wives drink from your own well, stick to him no matter what he has done. A man is not the faithful who had promised, because men fails and break their promise. Only GOD is the faithful who had promised. The bible said cursed be he that put his trust in the arm of flesh. The arm of flesh will surely fail. You been promised something by your uncle or aunt doesn’t guarantee you will be given the th...
