When I think of integrity, I think of Job. After having lost everything, he still fell down and worshipped God. Satan went back to God for permission to do more, and God noted how he maintained his integrity despite loss. Then his wife asked, “Do you still cling to your integrity [and your faith and trust in God, without blaming Him]? Curse God and die!” (AMP) Integrity is still living out your faith and trust in God despite what’s going on in your life. We can say we trust God in the good times, but can we really do it over periods of difficulties? Job shows us it is possible to keep your faith and trust in God no matter what. We can maintain our integrity despite our circumstances.
Here are some Bible verses on integrity:

4. I will be careful to live a blameless life— when will you come to help me? I will lead a life of integrity in my own home.

5. The one who walks in integrity will experience a fearless confidence in life, but the one who is devious will eventually be exposed.
