Live with Integrity

Psalm 51:6
6Surely you desire truth in the inner parts; you teach me wisdom inn the inmost place.

What is the inmost place of you? It's your spirit then your soul (mind and emotions). David had sinned and asked God for forgiveness. David admitted that he knew exactly what he had done that was against God. When each of us sins, we outright deny God. David knew that he had gone against what God taught him. He admitted that he knew better and recognized that God wanted nothing more than for him to be truthful about what he had done. Yes, God already knows what we have done but it's nothing like hearing the confession, because the confession is a sign of humility and admittance that what was done was willful. Yes, God desires truth from you. He wants you to use the wisdom He's taught you. What good is wisdom and knowledge given if never applied? It just becomes information. We live in an information overload and a constant downloading society so God's intention is never about just giving more information. He wants you to be wise, obedient and live with integrity. In order to live with integrity it starts within your spirit and being truthful with God. Most would rather not be truthful with God because it also means being truthful with yourself and anyone else who has believed the lie you sold.  What truth do you think you're hiding from God? He already knows your transgression, He's just waiting for you to say it. What wisdom has He already given you? Have you used it or is it just another piece of information? What if God treated your prayer of need the way you treat the wisdom He has given you? What if it was just another piece of information to Him? How would you feel?
