Chapter: Proverbs 9 | Verse: Proverbs 10:9
Markets crash. Currencies fluctuate. Even your reputation can take hits. But integrity? It holds its value in every season and under every pressure. It’s the quiet wealth of the wise.
“He who walks in integrity walks securely, but he who makes his ways crooked will be found out.” — Proverbs 10:9, LSB
Solomon doesn’t offer leadership tips—he offers life truth. Integrity is not a PR strategy; it’s a security system for your soul.
Proverbs 9 contrasts two voices: Wisdom and Folly. One leads to life. The other to ruin. The path you choose—and the character you carry—will shape how steady your steps are.
Crooked ways may be clever. But they’re never secure. Eventually, they cave in.
When you walk with integrity, you don’t have to look over your shoulder. You don’t have to cover your tracks. You sleep well because you’ve walked straight.
Where are you tempted to compromise for convenience?
- Ask the Spirit to reveal any crooked paths in your heart or habits.
- Choose one small action today to walk straighter.
- Remember: shortcuts in character always lead to longer consequences.
Walking with God is about more than knowledge—it’s about character. We believe integrity isn’t optional for believers. It’s essential. Explore more at ShoeLeatherGospel.com.
