The Importance of Spiritual Discernment
Spiritual discernment is the ability to see the spiritual reality of a matter. It allows us to answer questions like, “What is the motivation, attitude or spiritual influence behind this circumstance?” As God’s people, developing the ability to test and discern the spirits is one of the most important factors to our spiritual well-being. We must have our senses exercised to discern both good and evil.
