The best counselor is wisdom. A wise Godly man is a good counselor because he is fair, just, and one who knows right from wrong. Seek to be wise, and ask God for wisdom, if you do not have it already. When wisdom is yours, never let it slip away.
When you have become wise, you no longer work or continue to work for the devil. Wisdom gained from experience or the enlightenment of God teaches us to avoid stealing, drug dealing, and murder as we age. Nothing teaches us better than our own experiences.
Our children are the heirs of wise discernment, and are therefore, descendants of wisdom. Those who are wise know that beauty has nothing to do with being pretty. More attractive is a pretty mind and heart; it is a sign of the presence of a beautiful soul.
Seek wisdom and find eternal life. Those who hate wisdom will find the path that leads to death. God’s wisdom shows us how “to distinguish right from wrong, how to find the right decision every time.” (Proverbs 2:9) Hold on to wisdom when you find it, and never let it slip away. The wisdom of God created the universe, which shows beyond doubt that wisdom was here before the earth.
Children of God are given the sense of reason for self-restraint, and therefore are wiser than the serpent. They know when to hold their tongue and speak only when prudent to do so. Being wise not to stumble into snares of the devil, that we are able to go where God leads us, in the day of our destiny. We live in peace and freedom, as we wait on commands from God for Kingdom duty.
