How to Get or Give Wise Counsel Dr. S.M. Davis

An absolutely indispensable part of any successful life is the ability to know how to get wise counsel. Proverbs 11:14 not only teaches that you need several wise counselors, but also that you will probably experience significant failure or destruction if you don’t find them. Sadly, many people don’t realize their need for counsel. “The way of a fool is right in his own eyes.” There are people whose homes are falling apart, but they will tell you they don’t need any counsel. Most people still get counsel, but they get it without knowing they are doing so by talking with their friends about their problems. Of course, if their friends are foolish, they get foolish counsel! When King Rehoboam sought counsel from friends with whom he was raised, he lost the kingdom! On the other hand, King Hezekiah sought counsel and reinstated the proper worship of God. This message will tell you how to get counsel that will be as wise as if you walked into God’s private office, closed the door and let Him share personal secrets just with you.
