Although he was indeed a mighty warrior and slaughtered many, David always displayed an honor and integrity about what he did. His extreme respect for whomever the Lord had chosen to be a leader, was characteristic of David’s comportment towards the house of Saul.
In his writings, his integrity was always a priority for living. It was one of the sustaining elements of his rule.
“Let integrity and uprightness preserve me, for I wait on Thee.” [Ps. 25:1]
PRAYER: Father, as David walked in his integrity, let me also live a life of integrity before You and all who serve You.
