Discernment 101

I will not look with approval on anything that is vile. I hate what faithless people do; I will have no part in it. Psalm 101:3

If you are a Christ follower you should be discerning in what you choose to allow into your mind and what and who you allow to influence you. This world is under tremendous spiritual warfare by our enemy Satan who lies so much even believers start to accept the garbage and start living in the dump. This is why it is so critical to not wake up daily and feed your mind on worldly things  coming from the news on TV or the morning newspaper. Often times you can be deceived into believing so many things that are not real.

2019 is a clean slate and a new opportunity to get serious about your walk with God and your quiet time. It is also a time to really set boundaries on feeling you have to listen to news more than you even want to read God’s word. Even your choice of movies shouldn’t be what Hollywood says.

Why not decide now in this the first month of the new year things are going to be different. Purpose in your heart to be set apart for the kingdom of God. To do this you have to look at the ‘world’ in your rear view mirror and press on. 

PRAYER: Lord Jesus I want to truly have the mind of Christ. I don’t want bad junk entering my head and also want a Christian worldview. Give me discernment and courage to do the right thing. In Jesus’ name.Amen.
