Spiritual Intelligence (SIQ)








Jesus Spiritual Intelligence (SIQ) was extremely high. He heard the Father and stayed in constant communication with Him. He said “I have food that you are not aware of”. There have been a few times in my life when I was aware of God’s presence. However, my meager experience, as transforming as it has been, cannot compare with walking in a constant interaction with God. The Disciples walked and talked with Jesus daily but somehow they missed the fact that he was the Creator of the Universe.

He had marvelous insight, great discernment and read the hearts of others both far and near. His ability to heal broken hearts, broken bodies and broken spirits was unrivaled. He raised people from the dead and opened the eyes of the blind. His supernatural IQ (SIQ) was amazing.

Jesus did the hard stuff as well as the easy. Satan tempted Jesus three times with things that required a connection to the Father. His obedience to the Father indicated great motivation and ability to resist every temptation. Such righteousness requires a highly developed spiritual life from beginning to end. He needed no bracelet to remind him whom to trust or what to do. Jesus did nothing other than what the Father commanded. Even when the Father abandoned the Son to die, Jesus obeyed.  Such spiritual IQ was never before seen on the earth and was desperately needed by the millions who were cut off from the Father.

Spiritual IQ is called, Wisdom in the Bible and two books are dedicated to it and Practical IQ. Both Proverbs and Ecclesiastes focus on the accumulated wisdom of wise men and women that helped people make the practical decisions of life. 

Yet, it was better that he, the spiritual light of the world, should go away.
