Your Counselor

Everyone needs a counselor from time to time. All along life's journey, problems arise as we encounter difficulty. You can be overwhelmed by problems. You don't have the answers. Help is needed. Who is your counselor? The psalmist said to God, "You guide me with Your counsel" (Psalm 73:24). Let God be your counselor.

God's counsel is found in your Bible. God has a unique way of bringing a verse from the Bible at just the right time to encourage and strengthen your faith. He may use another person to deliver the word of faith to you. It could be a word of wisdom or a word of knowledge. A word from God builds your faith and directs your path.

God's counsel speaks to your heart. His words of counsel always brings peace. Many thoughts may come to your heart, but not all of those thoughts bring peace. His thoughts are always identified with peace. "And let the peace of God rule in your heart" (Philippians 3:15).

God's counsel is available now. No appointment is necessary. He is with you everyday and everywhere. You confront no life situation without His presence. Take heed to words from the Bible that come to mind. Those words are from God's Spirit. He will speak to your heart with His words of wisdom and truth. They will bring peace to your heart.
