Take a stand for what you know is right. Leaders may think they're doing what's best because it's in line with "the norm" or it's what's popular in today's society but take the stand you know is right in God's eyes. He will defend and elevate you for doing what is right and pleasing in His eyes. Remember the three Hebrew men, Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-nego and the great prophet this book that gives account of these happenings was named after, Daniel? Not only did God bring them through their situations but He elevated them to places of high honor in that kingdom they were captives in.
I (and I know many others do) see the moral fabric of our society (this nation) eroding piece by piece (or state by state) and I know for sure that even if it's not during my generation at some point this nation will deteriorate to lower than a third world country status, or even worse if something is not done soon.
If we, as believers in God's will being done on earth as it is in heaven, do not take the stand right now that will reverse this downward spiral trend this country is in and recapture what has already been taken, then God will have to destroy this nation and all the evil in it in order for His will to be done here on earth as it is in heaven and someone or all of us who call ourselves believers will one day have to give account. We are the watchmen on the wall.
I (and others like myself) who do not have the influence other brethren do, will stay in prayer that the brethren with influence will get the Holy Ghost boldness and/or courage (Acts 4:23-31) to speak to the powers that be to recapture some nationwide honor and respect by reversing these unintelligent and foolish decisions that affect us morally and will affect future generations detrimentally. For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal (physical) but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds- 2 Cor. 10:3-4
