Today we will be dealing with 20 bible verses about giving advises.

We have people around us who sees good qualities of Jesus in us and wants to learn one or two things from us. Sometimes we see that our new converts sees us as their role models. When people come to us for advise we should try not to be rude and make sure we give appropriate advice . It’s important we know that before giving advises we should ask for the help of the Holy spirit first who will direct us and tell us what to say.
Giving advises to people around us is a gift from God and we should use it for the glorification of Our Father in Heaven. Twenty bible verses have been collected to help us understand how we can give Holy spirit filled advice to people around us when they need help and spiritual guidance.

By the waysides you have sat awaiting lovers like an Arab in the wilderness. You have polluted the land with your vile whoredom. Therefore the showers have been withheld, and the spring rain has not come; yet you have the forehead of a whore; you refuse to be ashamed.
