Obey God and Don't Worry about the Responses of Others

Ezekiel 3:17-19 "…17“Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel. Whenever you hear a word from My mouth, give them a warning from Me. 18 I say to the wicked man, ‘You will surely die,’ but you do not warn him or speak out to warn him from his wicked way to save his life, that wicked man will die in his iniquity, and I will hold you responsible for his blood. 19 But if you warn a wicked man and he does not turn from his wickedness and his wicked way, he will die in his iniquity, but you will have saved yourself.…"
How often are we confronted with pressure to do what others are doing and go along to get alone?
When we stand for righteousness we will be maligned and judged wrongly and irrationally. It only matters what God thinks not what others want to believe about us. And, if we are led by the Holy Spirit to warn someone then it doesn't matter what their reaction or accusation is, it only matters that we obey God.
