The Law of Intuition Part 17
Godly Wisdom vs. Worldly-James 3:13-18
James speaks of two kinds of wisdom: the wisdom from above and the wisdom from below. Good leadership intuition always springs from the wisdom from above. Notice the following differences.
| Wisdom from Above | Wisdom from Below |
| 1. Gentle and generous | 1. Selfishly ambitious and jealous |
| 2. Speaks the truth | 2. Speaks lies and deceives |
| 3. Pure and organized | 3. Disorderly and demonic |
| 4. Results in peace | 4. Results in disharmony |
| 5. Reasonable | 5. Self-centered |
| 6. The fruit of love and mercy. | 6. The fruit of strife and competition |
Spirit of Behavior-1 John 4:1-8
Leaders are to read the spirit behind a person’s behavior to sense how ready he or she may be to contribute to the team. Leaders look for a spirit that: confesses Christ as Lord (1 John 4:1-3); agrees with and believes the truth (4:5, 6); and loves others (4:7, 8).
