There’s a pattern in Scripture that most people never notice.
Every time a woman cries out to God… something shifts.
Hannah prays - and a prophet is born. Esther fasts - and a nation is saved. A bleeding woman reaches through a crowd - and power leaves Jesus instantly.
But the most astonishing moment of all happens in Luke 1:38.
Mary says:
“Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word.”
And in that moment, the impossible happens.
The Word becomes flesh…
through the consent of a woman.
In this teaching, Missy explores the deeper Kingdom pattern of receiving - why Scripture repeatedly shows heaven moving through the feminine posture of surrender, and why the Church itself is called the Bride.
But this episode is also deeply personal.
After a season that forced her to slow down, Missy shares the humbling realization that while she has spent much of her life operating in strength, striving, and building, she is now being taught something far more difficult:
how to receive.
Through Scripture, theology, and personal reflection, this teaching explores:
• Mary and the overshadowing of the Holy Spirit
• the connection between Genesis creation and incarnation
• why the Church is called the Bride • the sacred pause of Selah
• and the spiritual capacity required to receive what heaven has already spoken.
Sometimes the greatest miracles don’t begin with striving.
Sometimes they begin with a single word:
Yes.
Selah.
Let’s build.
Be love, and be loved, Beloved.
