FAITHFULNESS

Daily Scripture: Proverbs 11: 3, 5-6: “The integrity of the upright will guide them, but the perversity of the unfaithful will destroy them. The righteous of the blameless will direct his way aright, but the wicked will fall by their own wickedness. The righteousness of the upright will deliver them, but the unfaithful will be caught by their lust.”

  • God will never forsake the righteous.
  • Integrity will guide you to do the right thing and please God. Righteousness will direct your ways, telling you which way to go and what to do. That is why your case is always different. Where others fall, you will stand. Where they fail, you will succeed.
  • The way you have chosen is the way that leads to fulfillment. Righteousness delivers. Yes, it rescues you, the upright from traps and snares. It pays to serve God. 
  • The unfaithful on the other hand are perverse, twisted. Stop trying to understand them. They chose to be that way but the result is destruction. The wicked will fall by his own wickedness. 
  • Stop blaming village people. Many people are the orchestrators of the traps they fall into.
  • The unfaithful will be caught by his lust. We have lost that quality of being faithful and true to a cause or commitment. Loyalty is now so conditional, like a commodity sold to the highest bidder. 
  • Everything has changed but God’s word remains the same. Live to please him and reap the rewards.

Good morning, Upright.
