Proverbs 15:21 (NKJV) 21 Folly is joy to him who is destitute of discernment, but a man of understanding walks uprightly.
Discernment is so very critical in our walk with God.
Discernment will help us to understand the things of God.
Discernment will help us to make sound choices in our lives.
Discernment will help us to better distinguish between right and wrong.
Discernment will help us see people’s motives and show us who someone really is, beyond their facades and their flowery words.
The church needs discernment! We have pushed it aside because we have become desensitized over the years. We have traded discernment for politeness and political correctness.
Without discernment, our judgment is impaired and our ability to make sound decisions and wise choices is weak, at best.
Without discernment, black and white become gray. Right and wrong become nothing more than personal preferences, instead of absolutes.
Proverbs 2:3-5 (NKJV) 3 Yes, if you cry out for discernment, and lift up your voice for understanding, 4 If you seek her as silver, and search for her as for hidden treasures; 5 Then you will understand the fear of the Lord, and find the knowledge of God.
Having razor-sharp discernment isn’t just for leaders, but for every child of God, so that we can make the right choices and our lives will be blessed because of it.
So, people of God, don’t take discernment lightly. Ask God for sharper discernment in your life and He will be faithful to give it.
