Discerning Spirit

Been reading up some articles on the gift of discernment and there are so many views on the purpose and how to exercise it. Quite honestly it's not something that I have been exercising though as a woman I do have much experiences on my "gut feel" But the gift of discernment goes deeper than that, in that it is able to test the spirits and know if a word, a person's spirit is correct or wrong. And also this comes with much sensitivity of the Holy Spirit, which will come about through prayers and a deeper intimacy with the Lord. I want to learn how to get into it and be used by God in this area.

Lord, awaken my senses that I may be more sensitive to HS and begin to operate in the giftings that you have given me. And not just in this area, but allow me to be stretched to used in the way that you have created me for.
