Proverbs 12:15
The way of a fool is right in his own eyes:
but
he that hearkeneth unto counsel is wise.
When
we are confident in ourselves we are most likely playing the fool. If we are confident in the Lord’s counsel
through His Word and basing our confidence upon His precepts we are wise. When in a disagreement within yourself or
with another maintain humility and be open to correction. The Lord gives grace to the humble but
resists the proud.
LISTENING
to counsel is not the same as HEARKENING to counsel. We can expose ourselves to the best bible
studies, books and influences and still remain fools. May the Lord give us the ability to HEARKEN unto
counsel - to adjust ourselves to the Lord’s counsel and take it as we would a
prescription.
“I thought
about MY ways, and turned my feet to YOUR testimonies.” (Ps 119:59)
