He who walks with integrity walks securely,
Pr 10:9
But he who perverts his ways will become known.
Want to live a worry-free and carefree life?
Live with integrity.
You’ll never have to remember your actions, or constantly consider if you covered up your sin or not.
If you pervert your ways in life, business or faith, it will eventually be found out. It will eventually be made known. If not in this life, in the next life where “God will bring into judgment every secret thing”.
The way you walk is secure if you act with integrity. Your path is strong and set. No one will be able to catch you in deception or sin.
Be like Daniel who was so full of integrity that his political enemies could not find anything to accuse him of unless it was concerning his God. Nothing could be brought against Daniel.
His enemies searched but still could find nothing to accuse him.
Imagine if that could be said of those holding political office today.
If you dig for 5 minutes you can find dirt on anyone you want.
But even though Daniel’s enemies searched, they could not find anything against him. He walked with integrity, so he walked securely.
Even though his enemies attempted to pervert the sword of government to kill him, his integrity and faithfulness to God would save Him, as God would close the mouths of the lions.
The way to walk securely is to walk with integrity. Do the right thing even when alone. Remove yourself from tempting situations as rapidly as possible. Go to war with your own sins and weaknesses and drive them from your mind.
Conduct yourselves like men.
