I received this word from a dear friend and college. She stated the Lord gave her a vision of a shepherd’s crook. It is defined as a multipurpose stick used for balance, examining dangerous undergrowth and for defense against attack by predators. The crook’s main purpose is catching sheep. Your shepherd’s crook is discerning of spirits. It helps bring balance, and it examines for dangerous undergrowth. There are things that you see and feel that others don’t. Because of your hypersensitive discerning of spirits, you have an integrity in your heart that is pure before the Lord.
