Christmas: Jesus the counsellor

Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. We live in a world of darkness. Darkness signifies two things; ignorance and confusion. A man in the dark is confused. Jesus is the light of the world. Isaiah 9:2 "The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light: they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined". A man in christ is a man void of confusion. Jesus the counsellor is in us. When we received jesus Christ we received His essence too. I love to call His essence and promises the salvation package. Counsel is in the salvation package. God is not happy that you are confused. Jesus was never confused. And we are living His life. Christ Is not happy that we confused in that business, career choice, choice of life partner and everything else. Christ wants to guide you in everything you do. And He also want you to be a light to those in the world. Jesus called believers the light of the world. As a light we are to dispel confusion every where we go. The unsaved are to meet us for guidance. Not the other way around. You may ask how do I get His counsel? You can get His counsel by being patient and having faith. Patience and faith are the two things you need to access all in the salvation package. You need knowledge also, You need to discover everything in the salvation package. That's why its important to study the word. So anytime you are confused seek christ in you for counsel. He may answer you through people, inspiration, revelation in the word or the inner voice. The problem with most of us is that when christ give us His counsel. We reject it If it doesn't fit our lifestyle. Don't grieve the holyspirit accept His counsel today. Merry Christmas once again.
