Awaken Bible Prophecy Update: 4-5-23 – Good Counsel, Bad Counsel
It makes a difference who we listen to. This is true whether one is a king or a peasant, someone living in ancient times or an individual today. If people give us suggestions, what kind of discernment do we have to understand whether what is said is actually good counsel or bad counsel? What is the only means we truly have in order to determine this? Obviously, we should filter their words through a Biblical and prophetic lens. Only by using Scripture as our plumb line can we know whether people speak truth or not.
We have many examples in God’s Word regarding this. The Lord has not left us bereft of His guidance, i.e. His good counsel. He makes it quite clear on the pages of Holy Writ that when we follow that which has a Godly moral basis, positive results occur. The other side of the coin shows that when guidance comes from a place other than God, the odds are that trouble is in the offing.
The two chapters of 1 Kings 12-13 provide a wealth of illustrations in this regard. What I’ll do today is show this and reflect on the outcomes. In the same light, I’ll point out a few instances today where good and bad counsel have shown up in the public sphere. Unfortunately, because the bad has outweighed the good for far too many years, this is a major reason for our downward trajectory as a people and a nation. Worse, it’s why the church has become no different than the world.
