Counsel and Guidance — Part 2

“Who hath directed the Spirit of the Lord, or being His counsellor hath taught Him?” (Isaiah 40:13).

Here are some further ways that our Great Counselor, the Lord Jesus, guides us through life:

• In judgment: “The meek will He guide in judgment: and the meek will He teach His way” (Psalm 25:9).

• Into all truth: “Howbeit when He, the Spirit of truth, is come, He will guide you into all truth” (John 16:13).

• Continually: “The Lord shall guide thee continually” (Isaiah 58:11).

• Unto death: “For this God is our God for ever and ever: He will be our guide even unto death” (Psalm 48:14).

What a wonderful Savior and guide we have! Are you following His counsel and guidance in the days of your youth? Don’t wait until you are older. If you do, you will have much to regret later on. Follow the Lord while you are young, and you will be preserved from many things. Remember, He knows what is best, “With Him is wisdom and strength, He hath counsel and understanding” (Job 12:13). Listen, and heed His counsel at all times!
