I seek not my own will but the will of my Father who sent me…
The world is in deep suffering and as believers we are called to be the light of the world for those in darkness – to support, to counsel and to walk alongside them, bringing light and hope to their darkest moments.
We are to seek His counsel, to let His word be the lamp to our feet and speak the Word, Truth into the darkness we encounter.
But we are not the lights we think we are, if we rely on our own will, or opinions, or understanding, or beliefs. Having walked many people through grief and suffering, the Lord is using Kezia’s past career as a counsellor and art therapist, to equip the saints to counsel each other and a world overcome with suffering.
This podcast seeks to repair the foundations – getting back to the simple command to: seek His counsel (kingdom) first. You will find encouragement to prepare you for works of service, to be built up in unity in the faith, and in the knowledge of Christ Jesus to become mature in the fulness of Christ. So that as a body we will no longer be rocked by the many plights and turmoil’s of this life and can confidently end friendship with the world, lighting the way for those still in bondage to follow.
We are to let our light shine before men, that they may see our good and praise our Father in heaven.
The word is preserved in you, as you are renewed in mind by the Word of God. And that Word filters down to your heart removing the hardness. Just like salt which removes the hard, scale-causing minerals, so that water can be softened. And so it is with softened hearts, His light radiates out through you and illuminates the dark world we inhabit.
Meaning we know our Lord God, and through us He is revealed and made known to believers and unbelievers alike. This is our service.

Serve: Preserve the Word
If we’re the salt of the earth, we preserve the word of God. Which is why we are not to add or take from it. Instead we are to love it, Jesus said, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word”. So, we are to read it, meditate on it and store it in our hearts so that your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have.
In a world that is growing increasingly dark, increasingly antagonistic to the gospel, we are to serve, to work, for the Lord is with us.

Purposeful Prayer
Prayer can be our comfort in times of trouble; a source of strength – not human strength but divine power, divine strength. So that, we can go through – not around, not over, not avoid, but through whatever it is we face. Yet, so often our prayers can sound like change this or help me with this or get me out of that; can sound like grumbling and moaning; can sound like we don’t trust God to be good.
Therefore, perhaps it is necessary that we understand the purpose of prayer…

Powerful Prayer – Food for Thought
We are admonished: stop bringing meaningless offerings! The food of our Lord God is our worship. Can we pray without worship? We can, but is it wholly pleasing and acceptable to God? We must consider then, that our prayer life is beautifully transformed when our prayer includes – worship, thanksgiving, confession, petition and intercession. Our prayers reveal our hearts…

Powerful Prayer: Ask, Seek, Knock!
We should enquire of the Lord’s mind, shouldn’t we? We should want to know His plans, and thoughts to fight against the sufferings and the tribulations that afflict many, to fight against the schemes and snares of the devil that plague the world. But this raises the questions: Are we asking? And, what are we asking for? Perhaps, our problem is that we don’t understand the authority given to us in the name of Jesus.

Woe to the complacent!
Comfort and convenience are thorns in our sides at best, or tools of the enemy at worst, that we must not be asleep too. We must open our eyes to the fact that comfort and convenience are our battle, the challenge of our particular place and time. Therefore, we need to consider where in our lives we are complacent and compromised, as we are liable to be vulnerable to one or both…

The Wound of My People is Serious!
Do we look at the fruit of the systems and institutions that we engage with or that exist in our reality every day? Do we go and research them? Do we know what they believe? Do we have eyes to distinguish their fruit? The Lord will tear down for his people anything that doesn’t bear the fruit of the kingdom. So as we dive into the history of counselling, psychotherapy and psychology, what are we to conclude about its fruit?

For Whose Glory Is It?
Counsel is the word of God; and the word of God thoroughly equips us for every good work. But if we just see counsel as useless, or ineffective, as something that only happens when things are going wrong, then we miss the point of it completely and it becomes exactly that: a useless, ineffective, vain endeavour. When we bemoan that counsel has no remedy, let’s ask for whose glory are we seeking this endeavour of counsel? Our glory? Or His glory?

Speak Lord! Your Servant is Listening
We live in the information age; there is an abundance of information and noise, our world is a noisy place. Hearing is not our problem; we’re hearing all the time. But are we listening? Or are we seeking what our itching ears want to hear? And when we give counsel, are we listening to answer rather than listening to understand?

Go and Tell! Transformation Power
For out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks… So, if we just speak or sing words, if we just say all the right things, and recite all the key verses that we memorise, and don’t connect to the meaning of those words, then who or what is in our heart? We must remember our great commission because within that is implied: go and tell them how much the Lord has done for you…

Wake, O Sleeper! It’s The Great Distraction
What are we distracted by? And from? And by whom? We are constantly being distracted from the very thing that can set as free: Jesus Christ, the way the truth and the life; who says it is the truth that sets us free. It is a war. A war for your attention. For your discernment. A war for your mind. A war for your very soul…

Who Darkens My Counsel? Speaking God's Word Faithfully
When we “darken” the Lord's counsel, with our own understanding or we dull it or dampen it or soften it, to be all things to all people, to not cause offense – what we end up speaking is useless, without effect, empty. And it matters because God's Word wants to move. We must not stand in the way of that…

Whose Will Is It? The battlefield of our faith
The question is: your will or the Lord’s will? This is the great battle at the centre of our Christian lives. Our will, our desires, our pleasures and comfort; yet, our Lord gave all for us, so that we might live, and have His way in our lives. The two wills are in opposition, therefore, we can’t have both - we must choose…

Outside: I stand at the Door and Knock
In this first ever episode of the Fruit of His counsel, we look at bringing Jesus back to the centre of not just our lives but to every word we speak when we are in service to the Lord. It is His word that is to go forth not ours. When we give poor counsel it’s because we lean on our own understanding and this really shouldn’t be so…
