In this special replay episode of Blessed + Bossed Up, Tatum revisits one of the most crucial conversations for today’s believer: how to qualify wise counsel. Following her recent teaching on Spirit-led business decisions from Acts 13:1–4, this episode builds upon that foundation by emphasizing the importance of discerning who we allow to pour into us—especially in an era where spiritual influence can be bought, marketed, and misused.

Using 2 Kings 4:1–7 as the anchor text, Tatum unpacks the story of a desperate widow, divine instruction, and miraculous provision. Through this narrative, she walks listeners through how wise counsel played a key role in this woman’s breakthrough—and how we can discern and apply the same principles in our own lives and businesses.

This conversation isn’t just about avoiding deception—it’s about equipping you to hear from God clearly in a noisy world and ensuring that those you go to for advice are truly led by the Spirit.

Main Points Covered:

Why this episode is being reposted: Tatum shares the intention behind revisiting this message—to reinforce the importance of spiritual discernment, especially as believers are often influenced by online voices and virtual leaders.
Biblical Foundation: 2 Kings 4:1–7 is explored in-depth as a model for how God uses wise counsel to deliver strategy and provision.
Discerning Influence: The difference between godly counsel and well-meaning but misaligned advice.
Spiritual Maturity: Why humility, biblical grounding, and discernment are non-negotiables for those we allow to guide us.

Five Characteristics of Wise Counsel:

God-Centered: They fear the Lord and submit their advice to what God is saying—not just what works.
Biblically Sound: Their guidance aligns with scripture in full context and is rooted in truth.
Discerning: They are able to perceive beyond surface issues and speak to the root.
Humble and Teachable: They don’t lead with ego or accolades, but with a heart postured toward serving and hearing from God.
Experienced and Spiritually Mature: Their track record is submitted to God, and their insight is seasoned by both time and obedience.

Examples of Wise and Unwise Counsel in Scripture:

Moses and Jethro – Exodus 18:13–24
Paul and Timothy – 2 Timothy 1:6–7
Rehoboam and His Advisors – 1 Kings 12:6–15 (a case study in ignoring wise counsel)

Tatum’s Encouragement:

You don’t always have time to vet people when crisis hits. That’s why building relationships with biblically sound, Spirit-led leaders before you’re in need is essential. Don’t wait until you're overwhelmed to figure out who you can trust. Use this episode as a guide to start evaluating your circle now.
