Discernment: The Gentleman’s Shield #041

Discernment is the front-line defense for your heart, mission and legacy.

Without it, you’ll be robbed by smiling faces and polite words.

Jesus warned that He was sending His followers “as sheep in the midst of wolves” (Matthew 10:16), so the command was clear: Be wise as serpents and harmless as doves.

The Dangerous Gentleman prays for discernment, watches patterns over promises and takes note of the small inconsistencies others ignore.

This isn’t paranoia — it’s preparation.

Warrior’s Reminder: A dull blade can’t cut. A dull mind can’t discern. Stay sharp.

Scripture Focus:

“Behold, I am sending you out as sheep in the midst of wolves, so be wise as serpents and innocent as doves.”
Matthew 10:16
