wisdom and discernment pt 1

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

Solomon asked God for wisdom.... this wisdom wld help him discern good and evil... discerning is perceiving with the spirit the true state of affairs.... it is not the same as having a suspicious spirit... rather a peace that gives rule to good directions and decisions... its also the peace that surpasses all understanding... Jesus in His earthly life always uses discernment... He always perceive situations and knw the true state of affairs.. therefore He moved in the supernatural... the pharisees do not perceive or even discern... the pharisees often reason.... so discerning with te spirit is not the same as reasoning nor the same as suspicion... rather is following the peace of God... follow the peace and discern with spirit and you will have a supernatural life... be wise as serpents... harmless as doves... when u feel life about something... go and do it... if something feels scratchy... follow the peace... before u sign the investment... check with ur spirit... follow the Spirit's leading...

James 1:5
If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.
