Blake Robert Templeton explains how the enemy doesn't attack with drama but with subtle internal whispers that feel like your own thoughts. God's voice comes as an inner, audible unction that passes through your system. Learning to polarize these voices lets you tell them apart and avoid deception.

When the enemy attacks, it doesn't sound like Darth Vader. I'm here to attack and destroy you. Like, it doesn't sound like that. And more importantly, it sounds like what? It sounds like your voice. And so the voice isn't actually in your ears, it's inside you. It's a feeling and an unction. When God speaks, I have heard the voice of God audible inside of me many times. It's words that come through my system and he speaks, and I'm like, whoa, that was God. But I don't always think like, whoa, I'm like, that was God. I just— it's a natural feeling. Oh, that was him. But the enemy tries to sound like you so that you think it's just your thoughts being thought. So it's like, man, I'm hungry for a steak. Oh yeah, the more I'm thinking about a steak, I'm really hungry for a steak. That's a feeling that comes to be an unction that words get put on that emotion, and now you're thinking it. That's what the enemy takes over. That's why if we polarize the voices, then we understand how different they are. We don't become twisted when we actually are trying to discern who's speaking to us.
