FIRE SCRIPTURE: John 16:7-15 (KJV)
7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.
8 And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:
9 Of sin, because they believe not on me;
10 Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more;
11 Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.
12 I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.
13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.
14 He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you.
15 All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you.

Why is it important that you seek the counsel and direction of the Holy Spirit? 1 Corinthians 2:11 affirms that no one knows the mind of God except the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is in the best position to be your counsellor and help you navigate life’s journey and challenges.

As a believer, the Holy Spirit will guide you into all truth and help you understand and apply God’s Word to your life and situation (John 16:13). He will also guide you in your walk with Him (Romans 8:14). He will convict you of sin, righteousness and judgement, helping you to grow in holiness and obedience (John 16:8-11). He will give you the spirit of power, love and self-discipline, enabling you to live a life pleasing to God (2 Timothy 2:17). In addition, He will provide you with comfort, peace, hope and joy (Acts 9:31 and Romans 15:13).
As your counsellor, the Holy Spirit will help you understand and apply the Word of God. He will guide you in decision making and problem solving. He will give you peace, hope and reassurance in times of need. He will also enable you to live a life of obedience, holiness and service. In James 1:5, the Bible says that whoever lacks wisdom should ask God for it. You should ask the Holy Spirit for wisdom and discernment. He is available to help you know the will, purpose and plan of God per time. He will also provide you counsel and support when you find yourself struggling with emotions like anxiety, fear, grief, etc. (Romans 15:13). Also, when you face uncertainty, you can ask Him for guidance and reassurance (Proverbs 3:5-6).
To enjoy the counselling ministry of the Holy Spirit, you must be born again, pray to Him to counsel and guide you, listen to His gentle nudges, convictions, guidance and be sensitive to His leading. Read and meditate on the Scriptures regularly and obey His counsel and guidance always.
