Matthew 7:24
24
"Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock.
James 1:5
If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.
James 3:17
But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere.
Matthew 7:25
25
The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock.

Heavenly wisdom provides selfless ability to love those in need, with fullness that is greater than what human knowledge can provide. Human wisdom is based on human experience and perception, while heavenly wisdom is provided by faith and founded in love.

Matthew 6:33
33
But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

The righteousness of God is honored when we seek by His Truth, ways in which to provide others what is unseen and holy through us in pur faithfulness. This is not the sharing of passages or scripture. This is seeking in faith for the Spirit of Truth to place upon our hearts or minds, what is based in love, for the benefit of all mankind. We honor the Father through the Authority of His Truth; which is the same Authority in heaven.
Just like the thief on the cross who repented bearing witness to the other hanging criminal. He did so recognizing the Truth that was Jesus of the flesh. He witnessed the authority upon Jesus, and testified in his final moments of it. This faithfulness was holiness because it recognized the unseen qualities of God upon Jesus. Through him came heavenly wisdom, by the kingdom which is of heaven. This act of faith brought salvation on the soul, while the other condemned soul remained in fear, and desperately sought selfishly by human wisdom for survival of his flesh existence.
Heavenly wisdom is fearless, selfless, and full. It brings honor to God when supplied in service of one another. It brings holiness into a setting where wickedness bears its fruit. Heavenly wisdom is of the holy fruits, is founded in love, and available to all who have faith. What completes heavenly wisdom is recognition with thanks to the Father for His Son, whom supplied us with the grace we needed to overcome our sin and act in faith fearlessly, selflessly.
Human wisdom is the blind leading the blind. Everything done beyond faith is sinful. Our humanity is animalistic. We still rely on instinct and our knowledge to develop our perceptions and choices. And supplying this human wisdom to others simply creates more division in them. It separates them further from faith in the unseen qualities of God. Yes, when we die of the flesh, we are reborn into a different way of describing what is in front of us. The faithful grow closer to God's purpose, while the rest of humanity seeks meaning in their perishing state.
None here are perfect. We all give advice, thinking it feels right to. But when we are serving others, it should be primary to seek the unseen qualities of the Holy Spirit to supply heavenly wisdom. We no longer react to our emotions nor rely on our logic. Instead we bekieve in the heavenly authority, and seek to bring it into the moment to honor God. This is the mature day of a Christian, one we all work towards sustaining eternally.

James 5:19-20
19
My brothers and sisters, if one of you should wander from the truth and someone should bring that person back,
20
remember this: Whoever turns a sinner from the error of their way will save them from death and cover over a multitude of sins.

All of creation was brought the the Holy Authority; Truth. Jesus is that Holy Authority. We are his body of believers. Remain in him and this Authority will, in the form of the Spirit of Truth, act through your selfless service to others.
This is growth, a path to eternal life.
