FAITH IN GOD WHO GIVES US WISE COUNSEL

March 25 Faith in God Bible Meditations Based on Judges 18-21 

Key Verse – Judges 18:5 … Ask counsel, we pray thee, of God, that we may know whether our way which we go shall be prosperous.

FAITH IN GOD WHO GIVES US WISE COUNSEL God gives us wise counsel against discouragement For us to overcome emptiness-ailment As we seek His will in our Bible reading-engagement With faith’s trust in His empowerment. God gives us wise counsel against worldliness For us to practice holy steadfastness As we stick to His Word of truthfulness With faith’s drive toward good works’ bountifulness. God gives us wise counsel against pride For us to keep on staying on His side As we exalt Him and in His grace, always hide With faith’s diligence to strive for heavenly stride. God gives us wise counsel against falling into iniquity For us to become prayerful in our wholehearted sincerity As we flee from temptations by His strength so mighty With faith’s conviction to stand upon His authority. God gives us wise counsel against attacks of pressure For us to find peace in His compassion beyond measure As we admit our unbelief in His promises that assure With faith’s determination to live for His pleasure. God gives us wise counsel against complaining For us to submit to Him despite fleshly whining As we worship Him Who is majestically reigning With faith’s thanksgiving for vision’s brightening. God gives us wise counsel against mourning because of despair For us to move on by His compassion and care As we praise Him that His Gospel we can share With faith’s empowerment and courage that divinely dare.
