One said of a devoted Christian man in his business, “He commands my custom, for all his goods are Christian;” and of another, “He sells a Christian shovel.” When we are “upright in heart and life and business, we need no recommendation.”
The upright man, and not the leaner, is ever the blessed one. If the Book of Proverbs is carefully studied, it will be found there are many blessings which come to the upright.
1. The upright “dwell in the land” of promised blessing—2:21.
2. The upright have Jehovah as their strength—10:29.
3. The integrity and righteousness of the upright bring guidance and deliverance—11:3, 6, 11.
4. The upright are a joy to the Lord, and He delights to answer their prayer—11:20; 15:8.
5. The upright find that the Lord keeps them, causes them to flourish, and obtain definite direction—13:6; 14:11; 21:29.
6. They find “good things in possession” (28:10). “No good will Jehovah withhold from them who walk uprightly” (Psa. 84:11).
