MFM Daily Devotional 11 June 2024 MESSAGE
Integrity is the quality of being honest, faithful, accountable, responsible and having strong moral principles. It means doing the right thing even behind closed doors when no one is watching. People of integrity are consistent in matters that are right and cannot be induced or swayed by gratifications and will never pervert or prevent justice. Their YES is Yes and their NO is No. You can count on them because their word is their bond.
In the scheme of things in life, integrity is one thing that will preserve you. It is a selling point for patronage and lasting relationships in today’s corporate world. There is vacancy everywhere for anyone that will exhibit honesty, competence, discipline, industry and integrity.
From our Fire Scripture (Psalms 15), we can see the qualities of a person of integrity:
1) Verses 1-2 say that he walks uprightly, works righteousness and speaks the truth in his heart. A person of integrity always does what is right. He doesn’t say one thing and mean another thing. Even in his inward heart, he is truthful
2) Verse 3 says he or she does not backbite his neighbour. He is not a gossip or talebearer. He or she does not take a reproach against his neighbour. Not doing evil against his neighbour, not a wicked neighbour, not a troublemaker. He doesn’t work at bringing down his neighbour. He is not a slanderer, one in whose eyes a vile person is condemned, but he honoureth them that fear the LORD.

He doesn’t approve of wrongdoings, will never support evil or unbecoming behaviours. He will never join the multitude to do evil. And he honours fellow believers. He won’t talk down on fellow Christians.
3) Verse 4 says he honours the LORD at all times: Honours those who fear the LORD; He is faithful to relationships, keeps to time and does not waste other people’s time; He honours Godly relationships.
4) Verse 5 says he does not engage in economic exploitation or financial oppression. He doesn’t take bribes or any inducement against the innocent. He does not engage in exploitation but keeps promises. He does not swear and does not change; He pays his vows; his word is his bond; He fulfils his commitments to God and man.
It pays to be a person of integrity.
