Proverbs 11:14 (NKJV) — 14 Where there is no counsel, the people fall; But in the multitude of counselors there is safety.

The value of counsel. There is safety in godly counsel. (See Psalm 1:1.) Those who reject counsel are sure to fail. When facing a major decision a person should seek counsel from a number of wise people in order to obtain a general consensus. Otherwise, one may overlook some important points. The person who declares, “Nobody is going to tell me what to do” is headed for destruction.
