Genesis 37:2 (NKJV).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201c\u2026and Joseph brought a bad report of them to his father.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nobody likes a spoiler in the group, and Joseph was a spoiler indeed. He could not flow with the others. It was hard for Joseph to see wrong and be silent about it. I can imagine that he may have tried to correct them but being the baby in the group, I doubt his opinion counted for much. This may have necessitated his informing his dad about the wrong doings among the siblings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Don\u2019t conform to the group image or group motto, if the team is headed in the wrong direction. Yes, people may consider you a spoiler, but we must be spoilers to those who choose a path of evil. We cannot conform, and we must not conform. But we must also be ready for the backlash that always comes to non-conformists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It happened to Joseph. It\u2019ll happen to you. That\u2019s the price of non-conformity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cLord, I am a non-conformist, and I choose not to conform to anything that is against righteousness. I will stand alone if necessary for the sake of Truth. Please give me the strength I need to speak up and refuse to tow the line of evil. In Jesus\u2019 name. Amen.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
