Counsel

Proverbs 11:14 Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counsellors there is safety.

Too often we try to do things on our own. We want to make our own decisions, go our own way, etc. Before we do anything we ought to seek counsel first. This verse says "in the multitude of counsellors there is safety." Regardless of whom we seek counsel, we should be sure that counsel is Godly. Whether it be your pastor, a Godly friend, or a parent. But the most important counsel we should seek is that of the Father. Always go to Him first, in prayer and His Word.
