Where have the people of integrity gone in our societies and in our churches?
Where did we go to hide?
The Lord boasts of Job to the devil, he wonders if satan realizes the deposit that is in this servant, if he is aware of his justice and his integrity.
Waouhhhh,
What an appreciation!
What a testimony!
And U.S?
What is God calling us?
What is his judgment concerning us?
Is the heart of the Lord excited when he speaks about us?
Are we speaking people?
Are we walking righteously?
The word of God tells us the story of a woman from among the wives of the sons of the prophets who came to Elisha complaining.
Her husband who was a servant of God died, he feared the Lord.
She had a problem that she couldn’t solve, she had already been humiliated, disgraced, she had surely lost her dignity, her honor, she had been stripped of everything she could have until we also took his two children to make them slaves.
How did they get there?
To contract a debt which suffocates us, to make a commitment which throws us the shame is a danger.
We want to believe that this woman had already looked for all the solutions, she surely even wanted to borrow and no one trusted her.
Their reputation was already sullied, they were already known as dishonest people although they were in the faith.
Surely she had made promises that she broke.
We want to think that what happened to him was not right, but we can point out in this tale the lack of integrity.
The problem in our opinion was not the debt but surely the missed dates, the lies, the broken words.
Do we see what a lack of integrity can do to us?
He locks us up in cages, he erects fortresses in front of us, he steals our peace from us.
Beware of eloquent people with honorable demeanors, attractive appearances with a holy air and when we get closer we find that they have masks, that they are not what they show, they are hypocrites, angry, dishonest, they give the impression of having a relationship with God yet they are not consecrated, they are not really converted.
Let’s not be white collar men, integrity is an important value for the Lord, it’s an essential ingredient.
To lack integrity is to sadden the Holy Spirit, to hurt the Father, to lack deep truth in our lives.
Proverbs, 20: 7 – The righteous walk in his integrity; Happy are his children after him!
Pray to be steadfast in your ways.
Our integrity does not only affect our lives or our relationship with God, but our conduct with integrity affects our children.
A father of integrity brings blessings to his children who will follow in his footsteps.
Our walk with God impacts the people around us.
To be honest is to be righteous, to be fair.
May the Lord help us to be good examples for those around us.
