DON’T IGNORE GODLY COUNSEL 2

“There are many devices in a man’s heart; nevertheless the counsel of the LORD, that shall stand.”
Proverbs 19:21
Main Text:

If your desire is not the counsel of God for your destiny in this 2018 and the years ahead, you will struggle from now and forever without result. This is the simple reason why many conclude today that heaven helps those who help themselves, whereas that is lie and not scriptural.

There are many devices in a man’s heart; nevertheless the counsel of the LORD, that shall stand.” Proverbs 19:21. If you will succeed eternally, you need the counsel of the Lord. If your relationship will end up in a fruitful marriage, you must secure divine counsel and leading. If you won’t be frustrated on that project or business proposal for 2019, you need to urgently approach your Maker for direction and the revelation of His will so that you will not be frustrated at the end. Your decision to outsmart God is your readiness to die prematurely. There’s no better way than the route that God has shown. “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil...” Jeremiah 29:11. You are limited in thought and wisdom. Doing it alone is dangerous. That’s why you see so many single brothers and sisters returning with regrets after few years of fruitless efforts. Dating is simply toying with your emotions when you can’t see through the eyes of the spirit what God has planned for you maritally. Marriages void of the counsel of the Lord will surely lead to frustration and the deepest regrets; no wonder the so many records of domestic violence today. You need to be guided in your quest in life. It’s never too late beloved, there’s still a solution if you have missed it in 2018 ending, just do the right things as you get set for 2019. Seek the Lord in prayers and crave for His Kingdom in your life in 2019.

Prayer: Father, open my eyes of understanding and grant me access to your counsel in life
