Episode Synopsis

Today is the Ides of January. And it’s already clear that this new year will challenge us in new ways. So, today, we’ll look at the single greatest weapon we must develop and continuously train with so that we can be effective in the intensifying spiritual war. Our very survival may well depend on it.But we need to begin now to develop and hone this skill in new ways we never imagined to survive and thrive against the existential threats of AI, nuclear war, more pandemics, perhaps even extraterrestrial encounters — and most importantly the spiritual war against evil.  This powerful weapon that can protect and defend you, as well as help you evolve in ways you never imagined is: discernment. From the practical and physical to the sublime and the divine, we can think of discernment as a heightened sense of awareness and perception that we can activate consciously, subconsciously, or even unconsciously. And it’s extremely powerful! We all have either personally experienced or know someone who saw or heard or otherwise knew of, a particular threat against which they reacted instantly — sometimes in fractions of a second — to narrowly avoid death or serious injury.Discernment serves as an early warning system in your daily life. Sometimes, it’s warning is subtle — you have a vague but sudden sense that “something isn’t quite right.” Maybe when you turn down a street, or walk into a building, maybe even your own house. Or you strongly don’t want to take a particular flight on the scheduled date of departure.Your discernment often operates on levels you are not consciously aware of. We  call that form of discernment intuition. And once your subconscious early-warning discernment alerts you, you can then bring your discerning power into full consciousness to focus and direct it intentionally as you seek to identify and eliminate the threat.
