Title: Own your integrity
I will not deny my integrity. – Job 27:5b
An interesting way to put it is that you can see an extremely high level of resolve in this sentence. There’s no question whether he has integrity. Job has integrity, and he owns it. He seems to take hold of it as if it is a part of his identity. He won’t deny who he is.
Did you know you have that same integrity? Don’t sell yourself short.
Our integrity comes from God. He calls us righteous, blameless, joint heirs with Christ. And because of the identity he has given us, our integrity is solid. It is no longer a matter of how strong our integrity is but if we are willing to deny who we are.
Trust in the one who has given you this identity. God knows what he is doing. As we trust, we will find that our new identity has given us a resolve, just like Job.
Real Men know integrity comes from God.
