Discernment; the ability to tell between truth and lie, or to understand a truer or hidden meaning, is given as a gift and a tool by the power of the priesthood through the gift of the Holy Ghost. The bearer must be living worthily and the power of Discernment can only be used in either personal decisions or over those whom which you have direct stewardship over; yourself, your family and those whom fall under the scope of your authorized calling. An example would be the ward or branch bishop whom has the authority and power to use discernment when interviewing a member. He has the ability given him to know the the truth or hidden thoughts of those whom are in his council.
In your personal life, discernment given by the spirit can guide and direct you in personal decision making.
An important note: you cannot assume the power of discernment for those whom you are not called to serve, unless so dictated by the power of the Holy Ghost.

Discernment is the ability to recognize or distinguish the true nature of someone or something. Discernment and wisdom are close cousins. Personally, discernment means that I can "see through" (discern) a situation and decide whether that situation is good or bad, for instance. I use discretion with a person that I have discerned to be bad for me. I have deducted/discerned through watchful eyes, that not everything is what it seems. Discernment is a result of having lived through different situations and learning the outcomes. In most cases, the older you are the better you can discern a good person from a bad person.
It refers to the gift of discernment. Understanding what is of God and what is from a demonic spirit or just a human spirit. This can relate to any number of actions, manifestations that happen in the pentecostal or charismatic churches, and or any type of Holy Spiritual experience. This gift was referred to in the bible in both the old and new testaments relating to prophecy primarily. Paul, for instance recognized by the gift of discernment that the girl who was a fortune teller, although she was speaking praise, was in fact trying to discredit his ministry by association. He called out the demonic spirit and cast it out of her, of course making her owners( as it was, she was a slave) upset enough to have him stoned. The gift of discernment rose up in him (manifested a righteous anger) and caused him to rebuke that spirit and to set her free at least spiritually, putting an end to her ability to tell fortunes by that demonic power.
