Will thou pass over me today?
Without my being blest?

INTRODUCTION
Integrity comes from the Latin word “Integritas” which means wholeness or unbroken state. It is the state of being honest, just or pure. Integrity covers the whole moral character. It is one of the dire needs of every believer and the society at large.
LESSON OUTLINES
1. THE ESSENCE
2. ERODING FACTORS
THE ESSENCE
Integrity is a personality trait that does not make a person waver (Isaiah 33:15). It provides an avenue to demonstrate our reliability to all (1 Samuel 12:3–4). People of integrity honour commitments and keep promises (Joshua 2:12–14; 6:22–23); they recognise their fallibility; take responsibility for failures and try to rectify same (Genesis 26:9–11); they are also naturally consistent in every area of life (Luke 16:10).
The Bible has records of people who exhibited integrity. They include Abimelech, the King of Gerar (Genesis 20:3–7), Joseph (Genesis 47:14), Samuel (1 Samuel 12:3–4), King David (1 Kings 9:4), Job (Job 2:3, 9–10), Paul (Acts 20:33–34) and our Lord Jesus Christ (John 14:30).
ERODING FACTORS
1. The quick-fix mentality for worldly gains (2 Kings 5:20–23).
2. Preoccupation with gratifying desires resulting in lust (1 John 2:16–17).
3. Crave for material wealth at the expense of loyalty (Matthew 26:14–16).
4. Inability to maintain a consistent lifestyle (Galatians 2:11–14).
5. Misappropriation of God’s mercy and grace as an excuse for careless living and moral laxity (Romans 6:1–2).
CONCLUSION
Integrity helps us to be upright.
QUESTIONS
1. Give five reasons for integrity.
2. Mention three factors that can erode integrity.
