"The way of a fool seems right to him, but a wise man listens to advice." (Pr 12:15 NIV)
EARLY MORNING SUNDAY SCHOOL
LESSON (LORD, WHAT SHOULD I DO?
The Most High will lead you: Through godly advice. (In the biblical narrative). Moses experienced this. Instead of getting help, he tried to do it all himself. At that point his father-in-law, Jethro, said to him, "What you are doing is not good." (Ex 18:17 NIV). Then he told Moses to delegate responsibility to capable leaders w...ho could share the load with him. "Moses listened to his father-in-law and did everything he said" (Ex 18:24 NIV). As a result, Moses' problem was solved, and Israel made it successfully to the Promised Land.

Some of the time the (Most High) (Your Higher Conscious) will speak to you directly and reveal what you should do, but much of the time He will speak to you through relationships. He/she will bring wise and seasoned people alongside you. At that point you need to be humble enough to heed their advice.
You may be good; indeed, you may be better than most. But you must be careful who you listen to. Therefore, seek trustworthy counselors and persons who want only what The Most High wants (for you.) Such persons will stay objective, listen carefully, and answer slowly. Often they won't give you an answer at the time you ask for it. They want to sleep on it; they want to pray about it; they want to think about it.
Such a person is like having an extra set of eyes and ears. Why would you want to live without them? So, today be open to those The Most High sends into your life to help guide you. (Source: Word For Today)
