Awakened to Deliver –The Gifts of the Spirit Day 4: Words of Wisdom - Counterfeits, Cautions, and Common MisunderstandingsKey Verse: James 3:15 (NASB 2020)“This wisdom is not that which comes down from above, but is earthly, natural, demonic.”⸻Episode Highlights• Not all “wisdom” is from God—some is fleshly, emotional, or demonic in origin.• Counterfeit wisdom may sound spiritual but leads to confusion, pride, or deception.• Misusing the gift can turn godly counsel into manipulation when it lacks humility and love.• Common misunderstandings—like believing you’re unqualified or that mistakes disqualify you—often keep believers from stepping out.• True wisdom is humble, Christ-centered, submitted to Scripture, and marked by peace and fruitfulness.• We must walk in reverence, test every word, and stay teachable.⸻Scriptures to Reflect On• James 3:15 – False wisdom is earthly and demonic.• 1 John 4:1 – Test the spirits.• Romans 12:3 – Don’t think more highly of yourself than you should.• 1 Corinthians 12:7 – The gifts are for everyone filled with the Spirit.• Proverbs 24:16 – The righteous fall but get back up.• Proverbs 17:27 – Wisdom is shown in restraint.⸻Takeaway ThoughtThe Word of Wisdom is powerful—but without love, humility, and discernment, it can be misused. Don’t be afraid to grow in it—but do so in reverence and full submission to God.⸻Stay ConnectedGrab a free digital copy of 30 Days of Patience and explore more resources in the Linktree found in the show notes.All socials: @AwakenedBibleMinistrieshttps://linktr.ee/AwakenedBibleMinistries⸻Support This MinistryAwakened to Deliver is listener-supported.If this podcast blesses you, consider giving via Cash App, Venmo, PayPal, or monthly through Patreon—details in the Linktree.⸻Music Credits• “Paphos” by MountaineerLicensed through PremiumBeat by Shutterstock under a Creator License.⸻Call to ActionTest every word.
