Guide Me, Lord, with Your Counsel!
Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom, and that you would guide me with your counsel. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Proverbs 11:14 (ESV) offers us wisdom. The proverb tells us:
“‘Where there is no guidance, a people falls,
but in an abundance of counselors there is safety.’”
Bringing in reinforcements when a person needs wise counsel makes sense.
The message of Psalm 73:24-28 (ESV) is God is able to provide counsel.
“You guide me with your counsel,
and afterward you will receive me to glory.
Whom have I in heaven but you?
And there is nothing on earth that I desire besides you.
My flesh and my heart may fail,
but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.
For behold, those who are far from you shall perish;
you put an end to everyone who is unfaithful to you.
But for me it is good to be near God;
I have made the Lord God my refuge,
that I may tell of all your works.”
Have you made the Lord God your refuge? Draw near to God. Trust him to provide wise counsel.
