Does not wisdom call out, and understanding raise her voice? For my mouth will speak the truth, and wickedness is detestable to my lips. — Prov 8:1,7 BSB

The world’s counsel often involves guessing and speculation. Friends may mean well and try to speak the truth, but their advice may be wrong due to their limited knowledge. Bad advice, even when well-meaning, has led many lives astray. But here is counsel we can always trust—God’s Word is infallibly true. Here is a guide we can follow with complete confidence. God’s counsel is always safe because it is always right and true.

Those who completely trust in the Word of God, following its counsel and obeying its commands, are guaranteed blessedness in this world and the next. The Bible has never led anyone to disaster or loss. It always guides us in right paths, and those paths are safe, leading us to the highest good and ultimate blessing.
