“Integrity And Society”

Key Verse

“Howbeit there was no reckoning made with them of the money that was delivered into their hand, because they dealt faithfully” (2 Kings 22:7).TEXT — 2 Kings 22:1-7

Message

According to sociologists and political scientists, society is a mirror of its leaders. Those at the helm, they conclude from several generational studies, would pass to the led what they possess as their virtues or vices. They admonish therefore that the process of choosing or electing rulers must be thorough to lead to a salutary outcome, where leaders of probity would be positioned to spread their positive influence and integrity to the entire citizenry.

Josiah became king of the kingdom of Judah at the age of eight, after succeeding his evil-inclined father. He “did that which was right in the sight of the LORD…” His righteous reign so influenced the society that the authorities did not experience undue concerns over those entrusted with huge funds for repairs of the Temple, “because they dealt faithfully.”

If nations across the globe recognise the impact of godly leadership as a strategic success factor, the world would enjoy great peace and enduring prosperity meant for us by our loving Creator. But, it has not been so. Leadership in the institutions of society is steeped in corruption and unethical conducts. Their subjects are also neck-deep in the mire of corruption and, the whole humanity is entangled in self-destructive actions daily.

So it seemed in the days of Josiah. But his righteous leadership style turned the tide and brought about a new society of men and women who could be fully trusted with delicate public office and funds. God saw a king who was determined to cooperate with Him and abide by His laws in ruling His people. So He ensured that the virtues in Josiah’s life were reflected in his subjects. Godly leaders are needed to create godly citizens. But our role is to promote righteousness that will exalt our nation.

Thought for the day

Integrity is a virtue that builds a godly and prosperous nation.
