Be Different!

The world appears to have lost its moral compass and the new slogan in town seem to be 'If it feels good, do it,' an illegitimate definition of fun. But in a world this crazy about self pleasuring, you can still stand out and be different. What separates you from others is your unique difference as against your similarity. Thus, we're told, "Therefore “Come out from among them and be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, And I will receive you" (2 Cor. 6:17)! In a world so perverse with sin, immorality and homosexuality as Sodom, where all the men in town came after two visiting men to sleep with them, Lot and his daughters stood out. Paul counsels, “Come out from among them and be separate" (2 Cor. 6: 17). Do not join the bandwagon of people you can't define their stand on issues; people who are not guided or bound by any principles. Come out of from people with a closed mind; from people with sound reasoning deficiency. Come out from amongst people whose lifestyle doesn't align with your purposes. Be the odd one out if the plan violates the principles of God's Word. Let them mock you, if they have to, but do not touch an unclean thing (2 Cor. 6: 17). These words should probe at your heart daily as you make choices and decisions.
