Summary

In this episode of the Blessed and Bossed Up podcast, Tatum continues the discussion on Joyce Meyer's book Battlefield of the Mind, focusing on chapter 17, which deals with the "wilderness mentality" of avoiding responsibility. Tatum highlights the importance of taking personal responsibility for the opportunities and callings that God places before us. She emphasizes that Christian growth involves moving from dependence on others to a mature, self-disciplined faith that actively seeks God's guidance directly, rather than relying solely on others for spiritual direction. Tatum uses the example of the Israelites and Moses to illustrate how reliance on leaders like Moses can sometimes lead to spiritual complacency, where believers avoid taking personal responsibility for their faith journey.

Tatum also reflects on the need for proper spiritual mentorship and development before stepping into leadership or ministry roles, using her own experiences of being discipled and mentored by more seasoned Christians as examples. She warns against the dangers of prematurely starting Christian platforms without proper spiritual grounding, urging listeners to take their callings seriously by seeking discipleship and spiritual development.

Finally, she concludes by encouraging listeners to be not just hearers of God’s call, but also responsible and prepared to take action, ensuring they are among the "chosen" who are ready to fulfill God's purpose.

0:06.4	podcast for Christians all about how to make God the CEO of your business.
0:12.2	Get ready to be inspired, challenged, but well-equipped to live and build your destiny his way. Hey guys, welcome to another episode of the Blessed and Boss Up podcast podcast we are making our way through the battlefield of the mind book by Joyce Meyer
0:37.5	we are currently on the last part of the book discussing wilderness mentalities.
0:43.6	Last week I was telling y'all how I didn't quite understand how we went from the different
0:49.0	conditions of the mind ending that section with the mind of Christ and now going into the wilderness mentality, it kind of
0:56.7	felt like we were taking a step backwards. But something I thought about after I recorded the
1:01.4	episode is that the wilderness was before the promised
1:04.4	land and so I don't know if this was her intention we'll kind of see when we
1:07.7	in the book but I believe that her walking us through this wilderness mentality is of course so we don't make an 11 day
1:15.9	trip 40 years but also so that we can learn the lessons of this book and then walk into our
1:21.8	own Promised Land so that was a nice thought that I had. and then walk into our own promised land.
1:22.8	So that was a nice thought that I had after recording the episode.
1:27.7	But in this particular chapter, chapter 17,
1:30.7	she's debunking another wilderness mentality and this mentality is that someone do it for me.
1:36.7	I don't want to take the responsibility.
1:39.6	Let me say it again, someone do it for me.
1:42.2	I don't want to take the responsibility. So as you
1:45.4	could see this chapter is all about responsibility. And I'm here for this
1:50.0	because I feel like responsibility just isn't discussed enough.
1:54.8	So for those of you who are in a position where God has sent you out somewhere,
1:59.2	he's giving you some idea, he's giving you a business to the launch, he's giving you a business to launch he's giving you some type of
