As we go through life, we all need help, guidance, and counsel. More importantly, we need good advice and counsel. Not all counsel is good and godly. If heeded, the wrong counsel can lead us down a dangerous and destructive path. In 2 Chronicles 22, a man named Ahaziah ascended to the throne of Judah. In verse four, it says, “He did what was evil in the sight of the Lord, as the house of Ahab had done. For after the death of his father they were his counselors, to his undoing.” Some of Ahaziah’s family and friends had ties to the house of Ahab—a house that had proven to be wicked and rebellious. Ahaziah accepted these ungodly people as counselors; the Bible says such was his undoing. When judgment came to the house of Ahab, Ahaziah lost his life, too! Be wary of who you take counsel from. Choose godly counselors, lest you find yourself caught up in the destruction of the wicked!
