2Ch 10:7 And they spake unto him, saying, If thou be kind to this people, and please them, and speak good words to them, they will be thy servants for ever.
2Ch 10:8 But he forsook the counsel which the old men gave him, and took counsel with the young men that were brought up with him, that stood before him.
2Ch 10:9 And he said unto them, What advice give ye that we may return answer to this people, which have spoken to me, saying, Ease somewhat the yoke that thy father did put upon us?
2Ch 10:10 And the young men that were brought up with him spake unto him, saying, Thus shalt thou answer the people that spake unto thee, saying, Thy father made our yoke heavy, but make thou it somewhat lighter for us; thus shalt thou say unto them, My little finger shall be thicker than my father's loins.
2Ch 10:13 And the king answered them roughly; and king Rehoboam forsook the counsel of the old men,
2Ch 10:14 And answered them after the advice of the young men, saying, My father made your yoke heavy, but I will add thereto: my father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.
2Ch 10:16 And when all Israel saw that the king would not hearken unto them, the people answered the king, saying, What portion have we in David? and we have none inheritance in the son of Jesse: every man to your tents, O Israel: and now, David, see to thine own house. So all Israel went to their tents.
2Ch 10:19 And Israel rebelled against the house of David unto this day.
As Christian Business professionals we must understand that,
THE ADVICE YOUR PARENTS TOOK, MAY NOT HAVE BEEN LED BY CHRIST
THE ADVICE RELIGIOUS LEADERS FOLLOW MAY NOT OF LINE UP WITH ORIGINAL FOUNDER
THE ADVICE YOUR FRIENDS MAY GIVE IS NOT ALWAYS CONSIDERATE TO
WHAT HAVE ALLOWED YOU YOUR CURRENT LUXURY
NOT SAYING FOR SAKE THE YOUNG FOR THE OLD, EITHER WAY
BUT AM SAYING SEEK GOD'S WISDOM SO WHEN IT IS GIVEN TO YOU IT WILL REGISTER WITH CONVICTION IN YOUR SPIRIT WHICH WAY TO GO
