There is a very interesting little command in Exodus 23:2 that says -- "Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do evil. . ." I think this scripture could probably be stated in just two words -- "BE SINGULAR"! It makes me think of the song that challenges us to--- "Dare to be a Daniel! Dare to stand alone! Dare to have a purpose firm! Dare to make it known!"
Ouch! That hurts a little, doesn't it! I don't believe I know anyone who really enjoys standing alone. It is so much easier to follow the crowd---to be on the side of the majority. But there comes a time when, if necessary, we must stand if we have to stand alone! Yes---even if the multitude--the crowd--the majority--our friends, and even our family are following what we know to be evil, we must be singular and stand alone!
May God help us to do it Every Day---All the Way!!
