"But as for me, I will walk in my integrity. Rescue me and show me favor." (Ps 26:11)

[Bible Speaks]

"But as for me, I will walk in my integrity. Rescue me and show me favor." (Ps 26:11) 

In ancient times, objects were often weighed on a beam scale. It usually consisted of a horizontal beam, or bar, that pivoted on a peg at its center. A pan hung from each end of the bar. The object being weighed was put in one pan and a weight in the other. God’s people were to use honest scales and weights. (Prov. 11:1) 

When the godly man Job was suffering under satanic attack, he said: “[Jehovah] will weigh me in accurate scales and God will get to know my integrity.” (Job 31:6) "Let God weigh me with accurate scales; Then he will recognize my integrity." (Job 31:6) 

In that regard, Job mentioned a number of situations that could put an integrity keeper to the test. But Job actually passed the test successfully, as implied by his words recorded in Job chapter 31. 

We are not suffering exactly as Job did. However, we must be faithful to God in matters large and small if we are to bolster our position as integrity keepers and supporters of his sovereignty. (Luke 16:10)
