Discernment

God is faithful you know! Like "dem way dere" when sometimes you pray a casual prayer and then forget about it? Or even a serious one? Well God answered that prayer. It's nuts when you pray something soo in line with God's will that He's just like, "about time!", then BOOM the situation changes on ya!

Well my prayer was for discernment cos basically I believe that a lack of wisdom, ruthlessness and discernment can often lead to the downfall of a young Christian. I myself was quite ineffective for a while last year because I didn't discern the enemy's clever movements in my own life.

Let me take this opportunity to point out something that was revealed to me. Satan has been here trying to destroy us from Genesis so that's like 6000+ years and we, well... I, have been here for 20 years. Clearly he's got a head start on us and he knows exactly what he's doing ya dig? So we need a supernatural advantage if we are going to survive in this game of life and not just survive but run this race well and go to WAR! (more about war in the coming blogs)

So yeah, anyway, God answered my prayer nicely, just like when I prayed for wisdom when I was younger! For instance last Sunday we had a powerful service! It was beautiful, bare grown men crying at the front and that! Then afterwards there was some confusion as to which teams were meant to be doing what in regards to packing everything away the way that we found it (we rent a school hall you see). Basically some people left early without doing some stuff and it was left to others who weren't meant to be doing it and you can see how an argument was brewing between team leaders and members... *Sigh*

So then the Lord just showed me that the enemy was trying it after such a great service and I just let one of the leaders know and he was like "its true you know bro, thanks" and we all continued in one accord! *big grin*
That's just one example though, I've actually noticed this increased discernment like every single day lol. God is good man!

So erm yeah, discernment. It's great! Pray for it! Use it! Don't get taken out! Grace and Peace!
