Who is Your Counselor?

Psalm 32:8 “I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my loving eye on you.”

Today’s prayer point is simple.  Pray that our sons and daughters would lean on Jesus for wise instruction and direction.  He watches over them so lovingly.  He WILL counsel them, but they need to be listening.   Let’s be mindful to point them in the direction of looking for answers from the Lord and listening to His voice as they wait.

Christmas Season challenge: As you listen to Christmas carols today, pray for those people on the other side of the radio, listening along.  Pray that their eyes are opened to the truth and light of Jesus.  Pray that when they sing these words ….

God rest ye merry, gentlemen
Let nothing you dismay
Remember, Christ, our Savior
Was born on Christmas day
To save us all from Satan's power
When we were gone astray
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy

Traditional English Carol

Or these…..

O Holy Night!

The stars are brightly shining

It is the night of the dear Savior's birth!

Long lay the world in sin and error pining

Till he appear'd and the soul felt its worth.

A thrill of hope the weary soul rejoices

For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn!

Song by Adolphe Adam

….that these lost ones would hear and finally realize the truth of the words they sing.  Pray their hearts would be transformed and they would fall on their knees to follow after the Wonderful Counselor, Jesus.

Pray without ceasing.
