He’s My Counselor

When scripture says to lean not to your own understanding and in all of our ways to acknowledge Him and He’ll direct our paths…it is a truth and fact that should be practiced religiously. Jesus promised that when He went away, He would send the Comforter, the Holy Spirit, to lead us and guide us into all truth.

I’m ready to put this Word into action on a greater level. Before Jesus was born, it was proclaimed that His name would be Wonderful, Counselor, Prince of Peace and so on. It’s the Counselor part of His name that has my interest after this last life experience.

I am encouraged to seek Holy Spirit’s guidance for truth in every area of my life. I marvel at a dear friend’s relationship with the Lord. She says that she’ll ask Holy Spirit for wisdom and instruction on how to do something and He answers and leads her into truth. It can be concerning her business, ministry, even normal everyday life stuff. I’m stepping up in this area.

I need His counsel. I’m not shooting first and asking questions later. I trust Holy Spirit to speak and instruct if I should even fire my weapon! I may need that bullet for later! Mind you, these are things I already practice. I want Him to counsel me in every area of my life and then boldly declare and stand on what He instructs. I want to walk in His wisdom. I’m ready to experience the Counselor in a greater way in my life. He has full reign in my life.

I’m taking full advantage of His all-seeing and all-knowing character.

I’m taking full advantage of His name…Counselor.

I’d be crazy not too.

I’ll trust Holy Spirit’s ability to lead and guide into all truth. Especially since He knows the heart and mind of the Father. Who better to consult? Sit still long enough, He’s sure to speak and give insight and wisdom for any situation.

So I’m not rushing into anything; relationships, business ventures, ministry opportunities, I’m not rushing into anything. I first need to consult my Counselor and be comfortable with saying no if that’s what He says.

It’s a new day.
