Prayer to Know the Difference Between Judgment and Discernment

24 Feb 2015

God, sometimes it seems very difficult to know the difference between judgment and discernment. Help us to know the difference…

Matthew 7:1 KJV Judge not, that ye be not judged.

Romans 12:2 KJV And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

Those two ideas: not judgment, but knowing the difference between what is good and what is not, seem contrary at times. But Holy Spirit, I know they’re not. You know my heart (1 Samuel 16:7). My heart knows your truth. Your truth is inside me.

Your love has filled me to overflowing. I know what your love is like. Help me to look at every situation through the lens of your love. Then I will know my motives. If I am looking at a person and come to the conclusion that they are unworthy or undeserving of anything but the best that you have to offer, Jesus, then I will know that my motives are not pure. Please purge those impure motives from my heart and thoughts, Holy Spirit.

Instead, let me plainly see the world. Let me see what glorifies you and what doesn’t. Let me see my words and actions with sound judgment, but when it comes to others, help me to worry about myself and to only walk in discernment to protect my heart from the things that don’t glorify you.

Thank you, Lord. Thank you for walking with these people and meeting their needs…

We lift up this anonymous prayer request to you, God:

Please help pray that God help my dad reflect and be kind, my mum be humble and me honour my parents and never to judge/be impatient. And for a personal miracle needed badly too. Thanks.

Thank you for Hope, Lord. Send her the husband that she desires, and in the meantime, thank you for being her comfort:

Pray that God sends me a husband and that were equally yoked and we are very fond of reach other I form a relationship very soon and he works and he is a gentleman and don’t judge me for my past and that God gives me confirmation that he will do this. It says in his word, “Ask and you shall receive.” Please keep this in prayer. I’m very lonely.

Father, thank you for the plan that you have for Marlo’s life. Bless her financially, and help her to get into a new home soon:

I’m homeless. I go up for rapid refund housing on December 4th. I have a judgment on my credit report. I need all the paper work for the interview.

Bless C, Father. Set her free from the bondage of addiction and the problems that have come with it:

Huge financial problems created by long-term addiction. Have asked everyone I know for help getting back on my feet, but have only received judgment and condemnation. Don’t want my depression and stress over the situation to lead to a relapse. Want God to restore my finances, health, wasted years, and dreams for my life.

Bless Dan, his prayer meeting, and his church:

I am leading a new church prayer meeting and really trying to fight for the land that God has given us. Please pray for continued wisdom and direction as I lead the prayer meeting. Please pray for a mighty outpouring of the Holy Spirit and a passion to fight for victory. Please pray for me individually that God would give me wisdom and discernment and the fruit of the Holy Spirit through this challenging season.

We lift up Earl’s prayer request from Washington D.C.:

God in Jesus name by the power of the blood that was shed on the cross please protect me from all negative forces that are trying to come to destroy the in my life: emotionally, financially, spiritually, physically, and mentally. Lord please remove all the barriers and hindrances that is preventing me from having a happy, productive, and prosperous life. Lord please bless everyone I come in contact with; peace, love, joy, happiness, grace, mercy, strength, good health, prosperity, discernment, motivation, and the power of the Holy Spirit.

Bless L, Jesus:

I pray I would be blessed to be completely pay off and be out of debt before the years end. I pray for my business to prosper and to do well in school. I pray for wisdom and discernment in financial matters. I pray to be financially settled so we can get married and have a family.

Bless Wanda:

God, please let me have an amazing day today. Amen

Bring companionship into this person’s life, Lord:
