S. Daniel 6:4 (NIV) “At this, the administrators and the satraps tried to find ground for charges against Daniel in his conduct of government affairs, but they were unable to do so. They could find no corruption in him because he was trustworthy and neither corrupt nor negligent.”
O. Daniel lived with a high degree of integrity. He was trustworthy, not corrupt. He took care of matters. He was not negligent. Because of this, people who wanted to harm him could not find any ground for charges against him. He did the right thing. His integrity was known by many.
A. I desire to live my life with such a high degree of integrity. I want to have those qualities in my life, that first, I might be pleasing to God and that He will entrust greater opportunities to me. Secondly, I do not want there to be any way that others can find fault in me. That I am a person who is trusted and relied upon.
P. Thank you Lord for Daniel’s example of integrity. Holy Spirit, fill me and guide me to live with such integrity that I’m found to be completely trustworthy and not negligent. I pray that your light will shine through me – in Jesus’ name.
