In this powerful episode of Blessed and Bossed Up, we continue our Book Club series on The Spirit-Filled Life by Charles Stanley, diving into Part 2: Looking Within. Tatum unpacks Chapter 6, "The Faith Factor," where the focus shifts from understanding the Holy Spirit to practically living a Spirit-filled life. Drawing from her own transitional season—navigating motherhood and preparing for law school—Tatum shares how she’s applying this book’s wisdom in real-time.This episode explores the difference between reacting and responding, how to stop intellectualizing your faith, and why focus is the bridge between anxiety and peace. Tatum breaks down three biblical truths that can become daily affirmations rooted in scripture:The Holy Spirit indwells you,He is the life of Christ in you,He is willing and able to produce Christ's character through you.She encourages listeners to shift their focus from self-help affirmations to Holy Spirit-led declarations and offers strategies like building God's track record, preemptive morning declarations, and journaling answered prayers. Using the story of David and Goliath, she outlines how to activate faith before willpower, reminding us that walking in the Spirit is about surrender, focus, and confidence in God's promises.Whether you're facing daily stressors, emotional overwhelm, or spiritual stagnation, this episode gives you the tools to live a Spirit-filled life—not just on Sundays, but every single day.Prayer to Start Your Day in Victory:Lord, I claim the victory right now over the giant of [insert your giant here]. I recognize that this giant is coming up against the Christ in me. Just as you defeated this giant when you walked on this earth, you can defeat it through me now—for you are my life. I trust you to produce peace and self-control through me. I cannot handle what is to come, but you can. Respond through me. When the pressure comes, remind me that the battle is yours.
