HOW TO DEVELOP YOUR SPIRITUAL INTELLIGENCE PODCAST NOTES
We know a lot about IQ (Intelligence Quotient), which is the brain’s ability to process information. There’s EQ (Emotional Intelligence), which is the soul’s ability to process information. Today I want to talk about SQ, which is Spiritual Intelligence. We are a spirit that has a soul and a body. We’re supposed to be led by our spirit.
1 Corinthians 12:1, “Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I do not want you to be unaware.” The word “gifts” is italicized because it wasn’t in the original Greek. Paul is teaching in this section about the spiritual, not just gifts.
There are so many different dimensions to spiritual intelligence, but there are five I want to highlight in this message.
5 Dimensions of Spiritual Intelligence:
- The Gift of Discernment: The ability to actively perceive the spiritual entities that are influencing people, organizations, and geographical locations and applies to their motives, attitudes, inclinations, and mindsets.
- The Gift of Knowledge: the ability to receive facts and pertinent information about the visible realm by communicating with the Holy Spirit.
- The Gift of Wisdom: The ability to rightly apply knowledge in a way that builds for the future that was envisioned by the creator so we develop a divine ecosystem that yields life.
- The Gift of Prophecy: The ability to foresee the future before it happens and the ability to understand a person, organization, or geographic locations’ divine purpose and call.
- The Mind of Christ: The ability to process all aspects of life from the eternal, timeless, and multi dimensional perspective. The ability to think supernaturally and perceive the natural world through infinite probabilities and limitless resources that transcend the laws of physics and the restrictions of physical realities.
When Pharaoh had the dream of the stalks and the cows, he knew the dream was important and he didn’t know what it meant. I propose Pharaoh is dreaming again! Nebuchadnezzar had a dream and his spirit was anxious. He is so troubled about the dream that he threatens to kill all of his wise men. He knows it’s about his future but he doesn't know what it means. The Lord is giving people dreams all over the world! The world is looking for someone to interpret their dreams and their divine moments with God.
As I've discussed throughout today's podcast, God has given Believers a capacity for brilliance that goes beyond conventional intelligences. We have Spiritual Intelligence (SQ)— access to God’s thoughts and wisdom from another age! With that being said, I want you to know that my newest book Spiritual intelligence is finally here, and it’s ready for pre-order!
