1 Peter 3:14-16
Mighty Servants of God. Integrity—honesty and moral uprightness—exalts God and creates trust with others. The life and ministry of Jesus were so characterized by integrity that no charge could be found against Him (Mark 14:55-59). His disciples followed His example, and they call us to live with God-honoring integrity.
But even if you should suffer for what is right, you are blessed. “Do not fear their threats; do not be frightened.” But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect, keeping a clear conscience, so that those who speak maliciously against your good behavior in Christ may be ashamed of their slander. – 1 Peter 3:14-16
Prayer: Dear God, what do You see when You look at me? Is integrity lacking in any area of my life? Transform me into a person who lives and leads with increasing integrity. In Jesus’ name, amen.
