Proverbs 11:3”The integrity of the upright shall guide them: but the perverseness shall destroy them.”
This verse gives us an understanding of honesty. Very simply, the honest man has fixed principles and certain rules of conduct; he is sincere and does not change his goals as the wind blows. His primary goal is to keep his mind foremost on Jesus and that keeps his actions inline with his goals.
The dishonesty of a man will be his own ruin., His lies will catch up with him, his half-truths will be exposed, his manipulating character will be obvious and he will ultimately be destroyed.
Lord, we love you today and seek only Your will in our lives. It is difficult to remain honest; sometimes we crush other’s dreams, hurt people unintentionally, or exalt ourselves in error. Help us be examples of Your love to all we meet. For Your service we live. Amen
