Good morning Beloved Brethren,

Topic: STANDING AGAINST THE CURRENT
Text: Read: Psalm 63:1-8
Daily Bible Study: Ex. 33-34; Ps. 21
“O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is” (Ps. 63:1).
The Holy Bible covers some tough subjects, and postmodernism seems to provide an easy escape. The Bible warns that immorality is sin and rebellion against God. But postmodernism says that our lifestyle is our own personal preference. While the Bible says that God's Word is the final authority, postmodernism says that we are our own judge.
No matter what current society’s opinion is, it doesn’t change the Truth of God's Word. The book of Proverbs 14:12 warns that, “There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.” Humanistic wisdom and reasoning is a poor basis for determining what is true or false, right or wrong, worthy or unworthy. The only way to fight postmodern thinking is to be immersed in the Word of God daily, believe it, obey and live by it.
We need to seek power and Truth from the Bible, and not through our own faulty emotions and opinions. The Scriptures will give us the strength to stand against the current culture of society. They will remind us that there is a final and absolute Truth, no matter what the world tries to tell us. We should spend time in prayer everyday seeking God's Truth. Ask God to help you identify areas where postmodern thinking has influenced your faith and let the Holy Spirit guide and help you to repent and follow God’s will.
Prayer: Omniscient God, I pray that You give me strong desire to seek Your Truth at all times and to be motivated to spend time in Your Word daily. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ – Amen.
