Let’s reason and take an inspiring verse by verse look at the following scripture verses below, followed with a Summary and uplifting Prayer before GOD’S throne-room.

“If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of GOD, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.” (James 1:5)

In this verse, James encourages believers to seek wisdom directly from GOD. The promise is clear: if we find ourselves lacking in discernment or understanding, we can approach GOD in uplifting prayer before His Holy Throne-room. GOD is generous and does not scold us for our lack of knowledge. This invitation to ask is a reminder that GOD desires to share His wisdom with us, equipping us to navigate life’s complexities.

“For the LORD giveth wisdom: out of His mouth cometh knowledge and understanding.”
(Proverbs 2:6)

This verse emphasizes that true wisdom originates from the LORD. It is not merely an accumulation of facts or experiences but a divine gift that comes from His marvelous righteous Word. When we immerse ourselves in Scripture and seek His voice, we open ourselves to the knowledge and understanding that can only come from GOD. This understanding is essential for discernment, as it allows us to see situations through GOD’S perspective.

“Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of GOD; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of GOD.”
(1 Corinthians 2:12)

In this vers of 1 Corinthians 2:12, Paul contrasts the spirit of the world with the Spirit of GOD. As believers, we have received the Holy Spirit, who enables us to comprehend the gifts and truths that GOD has bestowed upon us. This divine insight is crucial for discernment, as it helps us recognize what aligns with GOD’S divine will and what does not. The Holy Spirit acts as our guide, illuminating our path and helping us to discern the spiritual realities around us.

“But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.”
(Hebrews 5:14)

Our maturity in faith is essential for developing discernment. The writer of Hebrews points out that just as physical growth requires nourishment, spiritual growth requires us to engage with GOD’S marvelous righteous Word and practice discernment. As we mature, we learn to distinguish between good and evil, right and wrong. This process involves not only knowledge but also experience and practice, as we apply (experience) what we learn in our daily lives.

“And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment; that ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of CHRIST.”
(Philippians 1:9-10)

In this prayer, Paul expresses his desire for the Philippians to grow in love, knowledge, and discernment. Love is the foundation of discernment; it enables us to make choices that reflect GOD’S fulfilling character. As our love increases, so does our ability to discern what is excellent and pleasing to GOD. This growth is a continuous journey, leading us to live lives that are sincere and blameless before Him.

“Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.”
(1 John 4:1)

John warns us to be vigilant and discerning, urging us not to accept every teaching or influence without scrutiny. The call to “try the spirits” emphasizes the importance of testing what we hear against the truth of GOD’S marvelous righteous Word. Discernment is crucial in a world filled with conflicting messages and false teachings. By grounding ourselves in Scripture and relying on the Holy Spirit, we can discern what is truly from GOD.

Let’s summarize the Bible Study on How we receive spirituel discernment:

Receiving spiritual discernment is a vital aspect of our spiritual growth and relationship with GOD. The Scriptures teach us that wisdom is a gift from GOD, available to all who seek it earnestly. Through prayer, we can ask for this wisdom and trusting in GOD’S generous nature. The Holy Spirit plays a crucial role in helping us understand and apply GOD’S truths, enabling us to discern between good and evil. As we mature in our faith, we learn to navigate life’s challenges with clarity and purpose, guided by love and knowledge. Ultimately, discernment allows us to align our lives with GOD’S divine will, so we can make choices that reflect His glorious, fulfilling will and character.

Let’s lift our prayers up before GOD’s throne-room:

Thank You for the promise that if we lack wisdom, we can lift-up our requested prayers before Your throne-room.
