Hi, welcome to Woman of Valor with Bonnie Kathleen. On this episode, I speak on creation with Christ and what it means to be fellow workers with God.

Scripture References:

Philippians 4:6-9 "Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and mind through Christ Jesus. Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, noble, just, pure, lovely, of good report, of any virtue, anything praiseworthy - meditate on these things. The things which you learned and received and heard and saw in me, these do, and the God of peace will be with you."

Ezekiel 40-42 and 47:1-12

Welcome to Woman of Valor Podcast! Today, I interview my mom "Mama Penny" and dive into the Lord's calling to us as women and children of God. Listen for her great insights as to how to cry out for quantum glory, fight from victory, and give our voice as cheerleaders in the Kingdom realm.

We also talk about how woman was created and the significance of Eve's holy birthright as a queen over Eden, reigning alongside her king, Adam and how this informs us as women of Christ.

This episode is about being an holy temple of the Holy Spirit whereby heaven comes to earth. Christ is the tent peg joining the two realms. I talk about how to be seated in heavenly places with Christ and operate from creation in God.

References and notes:

”And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus" Ephesians 2:6

“Let Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven.” Matthew 6:10 & Luke 11:2

"Neither shall they say, Lo here, or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you," Luke 17:21

“Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path.” Psalm 119:105

So, “The Word became flesh and dwelt in us.” John 1:14

“Renew your mind” Ephesians & Romans 12:2

Matthew 13:18-23 the parable of the sower.

“Buy from Me gold refined in the fire.” Revelation 3:18

“Then I, John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.” Revelation 21:2

Not a physical thing, but a reflection outwardly of the inward. Christ has called us “a city on a hill [that] cannot be hidden.” Matthew 5:14

Creation in earth is a representation, an earthly reflection of her Creator. Creation echoes, expands, continues; it’s not a circle, nor does it have any end except Christ Jesus, who is Alpha and Omega, Beginning and End.

For from Him are all things and to Him are all things. In Him we move and consist and have our being. “All things were made through Him and without Him nothing was made that was made. In Him was life and the life was the light of men.” John 1:3-4

“The LORD by wisdom founded the earth; by understanding He established the heavens.” Proverbs 3:19

”For no other foundation can anyone lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.” 1 Cor. 3:11

Read Proverbs 3:1-22 for an exposé on how Christ and His Holy Spirit are Wisdom, Knowledge, Understanding, the Tree of Life.

Understanding is comprehend as “having light” (enlightenment) which is to have the light of Christ within and reflect Him and His glory without.

1 Corinthians 3:9-17 - We are God’s building and fellow workers; gold and silver endure in fire. Proverbs 3:14 says, “her proceeds [wisdom’s] are better than the profits of silver, her gain than fine gold.”

Proverbs 3:6 “Acknowledge Him in all thine ways and He shall direct thy paths.”

Song of Songs 6:4

Ephesians 6:15 “And having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace.”

Song of Songs 7:1 “How beautiful are your feet in sandals, o Prince’s daughter!”

Proverbs 3:17 says, “all her paths are peace.”

Jesus is Prince of Peace; He is Counsellor.

Isaiah 59:7-8 “Their feet are swift to shed blood; destruction and misery are in their ways; and the way of peace they have not known.”

“and how shall they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: ‘how beautiful are the feet of those who preach the gospel of peace, who bring glad tidings of good things!” Romans 10:15, Isaiah 52:7, Nahum 1:15

So, we see, His bride cannot pursue Him without pursuing shalom, which is HEALING, PROSPERITY, PEACE, COMPLETENESS, WHOLENESS.

God has never created anything deficient or lacking (Psalm 23:1); we must pursue our God, however; pursue, abide in Him to know Him and guard our peace in Him. (Psalm 34:14, Romans 14:19, 2 Timothy 2:22, Hebrews 12:14, 1 Peter 3:11).

On this episode, I talk about wisdom and creativity and how the two are connected, as well as finding wholeness in Christ. Jesus is the Breath of God and He comes to strengthen, enliven, and break down our walls to let His springs of mercy gush out from our hearts!

Proverbs 18:3-6

“When the wicked comes, contempt comes also;

And with dishonor comes reproach.

The words of a man’s mouth are deep waters;

The wellspring of wisdom is a flowing brook.

It is not good to show partiality to the wicked,

Or to overthrow the righteous in judgment.

A fool’s lips enter into contention,

And his mouth calls for blows.”

—

Song of Songs 4:12 & 16

“A garden enclosed

Is my sister, my spouse,

A spring shut up,

A fountain sealed.

-

Awake, O north wind,

And come, O south!

Blow upon my garden,

That its spices may flow out.

Let my beloved come to his garden

And eat its pleasant fruits.”

Commentary on this section of scripture came from my own study into the original Hebrew context and meaning of the words! I have often use the Passion Translation as a great jumping off point and Blue Letter Bible as a study tool for those who care to study scripture in a deeper way.

“Her waist is a heap of wheat”

Hi, and welcome back to Woman of Valor. In this episode I break down part of why I have been on a hiatus with recording and the dangers of "taunting" God with our false humility and pretense of faith.

We cannot test nor tease our God into showing up on our behalf by being lazy and insolent servants. Jesus rebukes the lazy servant who buried his talent in the field (Matthew 25:14-46). Let us instead be diligent, therefore, and give the Father our good efforts and the first fruits of our labor! Let us not test the Lord our God or taunt Him with our impertinence.

He is faithful to lead us, but we must be diligent to run and give God our all, faithfully walking after Him. We cannot expect the Lord to drag us out of bed and make us partner with His will! Serving the Lord, being a co-laborer with Christ, entails hard work and discipline. He might be with us at the start to give us a running head-start, but we must be adjusting our sails to catch His winds, not expecting Him to man the entire ship on top of everything else.

Do not test the Lord your God. Do not be lazy or stew in false humility, as I was led to do, claiming that you are just "giving God glory" and letting it be "all of Him and none of me." He doesn't want none of you -- He wants all of you!

Welcome back to Woman of Valor as I, your host, talk about the incredible beginning journey of my walk into new things with the Lord - when He finally called me to Ireland!

So often, the Lord takes us on incredible adventures (or at least He wants to) wherein we must rely on Him alone for all our needs - even down to our daily essentials like toilet paper. There’s no getting around it: Jesus requires our whole and humbled surrender. I hope you enjoy hearing my story of how I first began to surrender more to the Lord and as He took me through the beginnings of my spiritual boot camp. He loves adventure and longs for us to be free from religion and all restraint, totally surrendered and melted into Him! Following Him, for Jesus is the Law, and obeying His commands given to men personally.

I’m not just talking about reading some scripture and picking and choosing which commands might apply to oneself or not. I’m talking about hearing the voice of the Shepherd and heeding as He refines and perfects us to become saved. To become His bride.

As mentioned in the show, the Lord told me “Stick with Me. Honey, my darling, we’re V.I.P. I created the red tape, I can move around it.”

Jesus is ready! He’s ready to cut around the corners and make use of what precious little time we have left. He is seeking those whom He might devour with love. He is seeking those who desire true freedom from every weight and whose eyes are staid on the King of Glory. Amen.

Hiya and welcome to Woman of Valor, a podcast hosted by miss Bonnie Kathleen and C’est la Vie: Abroad ministries. I’m so glad you’re here as I’m on this show to encourage and admonish believers in Christ and give personal testimony, Rhema words from God, scripture studies, and interview other children of God.

On this episode, I share about how Knowledge of the Holy One is all we must desire. Knowledge of the Holy One is all that we need. He is worthy, greatly to be praised! Nothing else matters. Nothing else compares. 

“My knowledge” is nothing: it is rubbish. Small pieces of matter blowing in the wind. The one MATTER that we truly need is Christ and Christ alone. Truly, knowledge of the Holy One is understanding. Nothing else is needed, but this one thing: to sit at His feet and worship Him in all adoration and loving-kindness. Knowledge from oneself is naught. Follow the Word from within and He will trade your willfulness from predestined knowledge to true Wisdom in Him. Walk worthy and follow in His footsteps, stepping where He does and nowhere else. All else is folly and your own knowledge will determinedly lead you astray. I would know. 

“Knowledge is from the past,” He told me. “And I AM is here. Nowhere else.” 

He is the Director. I am but in the choir, part of His holy orchestra, longing for Him to play me like a fiddle and make me to fit Him like a glove. He is the Director; from Him are all things and to Him are all things, and He deserves the glory. Amen and hallelujah, all glory to Christ the King! He is worthy! Amen.
