God-given discernment matters, because our emotions can be very convincing. But remember, the guidance from God will never pull you away from wisdom, truth, and prudence. In I Kings 3:9, Solomon’s prayer was for wisdom…him asking for and receiving a discerning heart. And in Psalm 119:25 the same request was echoed, “I am Your servant; give me discernment.” So why is discernment, insight, and sage wisdom far superior to feelings and emotions? It’s simple, we need truth not feelings. Emotions can be volatile, often unreasonable, and can change in a blink of an eye. When we operate from our emotions, our state of mind can run the gambit from aroused to agitated to shut down…with not a hint of truth in sight. So we need to be daily seeking a discerning heart from God in order to receive divine knowledge and wisdom. (Proverbs 15:14)
