Sometimes we think that if we really have faith, we should hear from God on our own and never need help. But God never intended us to walk this journey alone. He often confirms His voice through others—especially wise, godly counsel.
Our springboard for today’s discussion is:
"Where there is no guidance, a people falls, but in an abundance of counselors there is safety." — Proverbs 11:14
Hearing God isn’t meant to be an isolated experience. One of the ways God protects you from deception and confirms His direction is by speaking through other people—mentors, pastors, and mature believers who know the Word and walk closely with Him.
If what you think you’re hearing can’t stand up to godly counsel, that’s a red flag.
This isn’t about getting permission from others—it’s about seeking confirmation from those grounded in truth. Pride says, “I don’t need advice.” Humility says, “God, speak to me through your people.”
David had Nathan. Paul had Barnabas. Even Moses had Jethro. You and I? We need each other too.
So if you feel like God is leading you in a certain direction, bring it into the light. Share it with someone who prays, someone who listens, someone who knows the Word. If it’s from God, they’ll likely say, “That sounds like Him.”
Question of the Day:
Have you shared what you’re hearing with a trusted believer?
Let’s Pray:
Lord, thank You for the wise people You've placed in my life. Give me humility to seek counsel and courage to receive it. Help me recognize Your voice through others. In Jesus' name, amen.

Isolation invites confusion—community invites clarity.
