Many are struggling with discernment, having problems identifying the plans of the enemy. Sometimes, we are guided by the Holy Spirit to make the right decisions but may choose otherwise because it appears more convenient in the short run.

We seek instant gratification instead of our long term spiritual well-being. Let us receive God’s gift of wisdom and discernment today and exercise it in our lives.

When we open our ears to hear what the Spirit is saying, we allow our hearts to be encouraged, thereby allowing the Holy Spirit to operate in us.

God will do what he says He will do. We can anchor our faith on His Word.

Romans 12:2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect.

Prayer for Discernment and Guidance

Heavenly Father, I approach Your throne of grace and mercy, leaving my burdens at the foot of the cross.

Father, today I request that Your Holy Spirit draws near as You give me discernment in all that I do.

Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways submit to him and he will make your paths straight.

Praying For Discernment

Open the eyes of my heart, Oh Lord, so that I may be able to identify the plans of the enemy.

Guide me to make the right decisions in my life as I follow through with Your will. Raise me up, Lord, so that I would not fall by the wayside. Take full complete control of every aspect of my life.

1 Kings 3:9 So give Your servant an understanding heart to judge Your people to discern between good and evil. For who is able to judge this great people of Yours?

Praying for Divine Wisdom

Father, nothing in this world escapes Your sight. You are the God that sees, that hears and will deliver me from the grasp of the enemy.

Invoke divine wisdom within me so that I would not be a slave to my flesh. For the flesh is weak, but the spirit is willing.

Teach me to walk in obedience while I stand firm on You, my rock and fortress. I pray that the discernment that I seek awakens within me as I remain faithful to You, my Lord and Savior. In Jesus’ Mighty name I pray, Amen!

Psalm 119:66 Teach me good discernment and knowledge, For I believe in Your commandments.

Hebrews 5:14 But solid food is for the mature, for those who have their powers of discernment trained by constant practice to distinguish good from evil.

  12. If we keep our eyes stayed on thee O’ LORD, then might we discern what is not of you. Anything that is not of you has to be of the enemy. We need not look any further than You O’ LORD. We need only recognise your voice. Thank you O’ LORD for showing that there are no grey areas or variances with You, it is either, or….. black or white, in or out. You said: “My sheep hear my voice” that means Your sheep are filled with Your Spirit, anything other than Your Spirit is alien and not of You. Keep us grounded in Your word O’ LORD, that we wont be led into temptation by the evil one!
    Thine be the glory for ever and ever! Amen

      Do not be dismayed or discouraged, for the Lord Your God is with you always. Eventhough you don’t feel it, He’s working. Eventhough you don’t see it He’s working. Believe in your miracle working God. In the midst of your disheartened soul, He’s there holding you, hugging you like a small child who needs love n most of all His divine heavenly encounter in your life right now in Jesus most precious name. Amen ??
