    Coffee Time with Jesus (Yeshua)
    Jesus: Counselor
    For unto us a Child is born,
    unto us a Son is given;
    and the government will be upon His shoulder.
    And His name will be called…Counselor.
    Isaiah 9:6

    Jesus is Counselor. Isaiah used this name for Jesus when he predicted His birth. It is Jesus’ nature to give counsel to those who follow Him, because He knows all things. He can counsel you, because He knows what is best for you today. Jesus does not need to ask anyone what is best for you, because He is described as “wonderful in counsel and excellent in guidance” (Isaiah 28:29). He can show you what to do, if you will listen; and He can guide you, if you will obey.

    Lord, I need Your direction today; “Guide me with Your counsel” (Psalm 73:24). You know all about me; I trust Your guidance.

    Jesus is the Counselor, who will counsel you in many ways. He will guide you from the Scriptures. Study them well to find direction for your life. His solutions are not cookie-cutter answers, because He personally knows you and will apply the Scriptures to your life. Jesus has a plan for you individually; but to find it, you must know Him individually. You can find His counsel through prayer; talk to Jesus about your day. Jesus may also use wise counselors to guide you (Proverbs 11:14). Then, Jesus may verify His counsel through the circumstances of your life. Jesus is your Counselor; what ways will He use to guide you today?

    Lord, I will follow these guidelines to discover and follow Your counsel for my life. Amen.
