DEVELOPING YOUR PERSONAL INTEGRITY
SATURDAY 1ST APRIL, 2023
WONDERWORLD CAPSULES BY APST. JORDAN AKADA
“Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.”(1Timothy 4:12)
Integrity is wholeness. It means being totally or completely sound. To have personal integrity means you are upright, sincere, loyal and pure. The Bible warns that the crown (your position) is not guaranteed forever. You need personal integrity to be a good believer.
Facts About Integrity
It can be shattered by lies and deception. Very few people believe in politicians. This is because their integrity has been greatly compromised by deception and lies. Are you sound? Are you whole?
Don’t allow your integrity to be poisoned by bitterness. You must not allow the wounds of being a believer to discourage your attitude (Leviticus 21:17-24). Sonship in the kingdom is accompanied by wounds, offences and pain. Never allow these to distort your integrity as a child of God.
Start humble and end humble: most believers start out humble and end up proud: full of themselves and of their achievements. Pride goes before a fall. Self- destruction button has become prominent in the lives of many people. Integrity does not blow it siren. Proverbs 11:2, Colossians 3:11-12.
MEDITATION:
I am justified by faith.
PRAYER
1. Oh Lord help me to represent the kingdom effectively wherever I find myself in Jesus name
2. Abba father, by your mercy, let the spirit of deception be far from me in Jesus name
FOR EXTRA DOSE, DWELL ON 1Timothy 4:12-16
