Know-it-all Syndrome

from Mrs. PIE · host Shelley Jeffcoat

Today's message explores the danger of becoming a spiritual "know-it-all," particularly for those serving as intercessors. Solomon warns in Ecclesiastes that pursuing wisdom brings vexation and increasing knowledge brings sorrow—a paradox where the more we learn, the more we realize we don't know.• Being coachable is essential regardless of spiritual position or experience• God may send correction through unexpected people, even those junior to us• Taking intentional breaks from noise and social media creates space to hear God clearly• True humility means receiving correction gracefully, even from surprising sources• The Holy Spirit's guidance is indispensable—we cannot intercede effectively in our own strength• Spend dedicated time with the Holy Spirit before starting each day• Intercessory prayer should be done without seeking recognition or praise• The more wisdom we gain, the more responsibility we carry for how we use itRemember to make time away from distractions to hear what's on God's heart. Let Him work on your heart first before you attempt to stand in the gap for others.Support the showLearn more about our events, prayer groups and watch video replays on our Grace and Grit Media website.
