There are times when you look around and your heart ached. Oh how you wish your friends, family, community, country and even the entire world would follow God's law and live morally correct lives. Unfortunately it is not so, sin has marred us so bad, it is much easier to do bad than to do what's right. However, as individuals we can stand anyway. Joshua, looking around him and viewing the people he had led for many years said, "choose today whom you will serve" then he declare his choice " as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord." Joshua 24:15 In other words, regardless of the choices you make, as for me and my house, we will stand for righteousness.
To stand and declare undying obedience to God often means declaring yourself out of the spotlight, out of the popular group. But in declaring you have placed yourself in The Way, The Truth and The Life.
Maybe, unlike Joshua, you may not get your whole household to stand with you BUT stand anyway Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. Matthew 5:16
Stand in Jesus name
