Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who listen to advice.
Do you listen to the advice of wise counselors?
I am guilty. I have requested advice, agreed with it, and then delayed taking the advice or followed my own path. Have you ever done that? You have listened, but even though you get sound advice, you don’t act.
Proverbs 12:15 has an answer for all advice seekers.
“The way of a fool is right in his own eyes,
but a wise man listens to advice.”
This verse has a lot to say about who is a fool and who is wise. God can guide us if we will only listen to others, but also ask for God to clarify if the recommended course of action is the right one.
