Proverbs 15:22
New International Version (NIV)
22 Plans fail for lack of counsel,
but with many advisers they succeed.
but with many advisers they succeed.
In a world where you have to keep things to yourself
for the fear of someone stealing your joy or your idea. However in the body of
Christ we are to share and seek counsel from one another and not just keep
things bottled up unless the Lord tells us to keep something in until a certain
time.
We are to seek counsel if we heard a word from God
about doing something or moving somewhere. We can’t just act instantly on a
word we get and rush into things, get anxious to jump on things right away.
But also be wise in who you seek counsel from, you
seek counsel from those who you trust and are in the church. Not your neighbor
who is an atheist or the coworker who is a Buddhist. The unsaved cannot give
sound advice as to how to act on a word from God.
Because some people act so quickly on a prophetic
word that they receive they end up getting off course and out of God’s will.
You have to have confirmation and to get that is through counsel with other
believers and through prayer.
