Right problem but wrong solution..

Job 15:9-10 KJV
What knowest thou, that we know not? What understandest thou, which is not in us? With us are both the grayheaded and very aged men, Much elder than thy father.

Have you notice how most of the times when things aren’t going well and you need advice, you happen to get the wrong advice and the wrong answers? In most cases those answers mislead you and may even turn you against the will of God. When King Jesus was tempted by Satan the word shows that Satan also provided Him with an easy way out. That is why at all times we should be careful whom we take advice from and what advice we take.

If we lack wisdom all we need to do is ask God for it, because if we lean on our own understanding things could go wrong. It might be that people think they know better than you do or that things have been done a certain way in the past by previous generations, however if it is against God’s instruction then we will not get the right solution. Only God is able to give you proper answers and solutions. You need to pray before giving and even receiving advice. Ask God to lead you to do what is right. (Proverbs 3:5-6)
