Job 2:3<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201c<\/em>Then the\u00a0Lord\u00a0said to Satan, \u2018Have you considered My servant Job, that\u00a0there is\u00a0none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, one who fears God and shuns evil? And still he holds fast to his integrity, although you incited Me against him, to destroy him without cause.\u2019\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

What would God say to Satan about you or me?\u00a0 Would He delight in reminding Satan of our hearts being blameless and upright?\u00a0 Would He say that we have a reverential fear of Him that pleases Him?\u00a0 Would He say that we shun the evil that is so prevalent all around us?\u00a0 What would God say about our integrity?\u00a0 When no one is watching — when we are away from the prying eyes of family and friends — what is the level of our integrity?<\/p>\n

Daniel was taken into captivity as a young man.\u00a0 He demonstrated integrity by not wanting to eat and drink that which Nebuchadnezzar’s stewards served. He was never known to compromise his beliefs, even when it may have seemed easier to go with the flow.\u00a0 He was answerable to the God of the universe, and that was far more important than any earthly monarch. If we had a pack of “integrity” investigators going through every scrap of paper in our wastebasket, our computer memory, the words that we spoke, actions that we took, or the people we saw, would they find incriminating evidence against us?<\/p>\n

Do we live a life of integrity?\u00a0 Do we live in a way that is pleasing to God and without violating moral absolutes as presented in the Word of God?\u00a0\u00a0The word\u00a0is\u00a0integrity<\/strong>!<\/p>\n

Blessings dear hearts!\u00a0\u00a0Walk with God today and be a blessing!<\/p>\n
