📖 Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counsellors there is safety.
⎯Proverbs 11:14 KJV
We’ve all made mistakes. Many times, we could have avoided those mistakes if we had simply sought Godly counsel. We should seek first the guidance of the Holy Spirit. He has been sent to lead and guide us. In the Amplified version of the Bible, the Holy Spirit is referred to as our Counselor, Helper, Advocate, Intercessor, Strengthener, and Standby. Another way that we can receive assistance in making good decisions, is by getting advice from a man or woman of God. We should consult someone who is walking with the Lord and has a renewed mind. Psalm 1 tells us not to seek counsel from the ungodly (v.1). The thoughts of the ungodly are contrary to God’s thoughts, and we must stay clear of anyone or anything that disagrees with God. God will lead you and guide you when you seek His face. He may speak to us directly, or He may use another individual, but either way, He offers us help. He will lead and guide us in the way that we should go.
