I'd prefer to use the concept of instinct, or sub-consciousness. There are many times when you simply 'know' that something is the case - after all most of the operation of your brain is unconscious, why not put your trust in that.
It takes time and patience to learn to listen to what your brain is telling you - and it's very easy to misinterpret what it might be saying - In the same way, people say how it takes time to learn to listen to their preferred deity, and to understand whatever it is they are telling them to do.
In this respect, I think it's in everyone's benefit for people to learn to recognise the sound of their own, internal voices, and in time to come to trust them.
