Integrity...When I think of the word comprise, I am reminded of the word integrity. The word integrity reminds me of words and ideas like pure, focus, solid, whole, complete, perfect, structured in purpose, and a fulfilling of intent and vision. Integrity is a result of someone bringing their convictions, plans and agenda into alignment with the plans and purpose of God and his eternal kingdom. In this sense of the word, I suggest the word Integrity implies a perfect harmony and unity producing highly influential and lasting results within the context of community and culture. Applying these words and thoughts about integrity helps to consider the power integrity can offer. Once I heard someone share an explanation of integrity which I really like. They said people who are the same publicly AND privately have integrity. Most people act, say and do things privately they would not dare do publically. This is not a good example of integrity. This type of behavior could lend itself as unpredictable, unreliable, not genuine and hypocritical. Let's just say is this way: hypocrites do not have integrity. Integrity is a respectable power that draws from in inner source of commitment, conviction, passion, and transparency. Individuals with integrity have power. Compromise...Compromise weakens the power of integrity. Those who compromise their convictions, focus and standards are giving permission for an enemy to advance the purpose of the devil and his kingdom. The devil was the first to compromise. He is the first to the compromise the standards that helped give him such a place of prominence before his willful act of rebellion. I believe the devil uses skillful strategies and forceful tactics to either lead or push us into some type of compromise. A Dream about TRUMPI would like to share a dream with you.
