Welcome to Hope-full, the blog—a space for faith-rooted reflections, in-depth Bible studies, and Spirit-led truth for everyday life. Here, we wrestle with Scripture, walk through restoration, and grow in wisdom as we follow Yahushua. Whether you're seeking clarity, courage, or comfort, may you find hope woven into every word.

The Flock Was Taken… But the Shepherd Came
Jeremiah wept—not just for the people, but for the pride that hardened them. He warned of stumbling in the dark, of seeking light but finding only gloom. And tragically, it happened. The flock of YHWH was taken into exile, scattered and lost, held captive by their own rebellion.

Why Fasting Is Worship
Fasting is often misunderstood. In our culture, it is frequently reduced to a dietary reset, a detox, or a self-improvement challenge. But in Scripture, fasting is something far greater—something sacred. Fasting is worship… A cry. A declaration. A hunger for His presence above all else.

The Water Still Came—But So Did the Cost
Even Moses wasn’t above the command. When he struck the rock instead of speaking to it, water still came—but so did the consequence. Yahweh is merciful, but He is also holy. This post explores the moment Moses acted in his own name, what it cost him, and why obedience—no matter who you are—is still required. Because fruit always grows… and disobedience has a harvest.

The Fox Will Fall: Three Enemies, One Spirit of Opposition
Throughout Scripture, the fox appears in moments of destruction, deception, and mockery. Though small in stature, this creature is often linked to spiritual threats—whether through overt attacks on Yahweh’s people or through subtle, creeping sabotage that ruins fruitfulness from within. From Samson’s fire-bearing foxes to Yahushua’s rebuke of Herod, each mention reveals a deeper message: the enemy may come sly, mocking, or cloaked in authority—but Yahweh always exposes and overcomes.

Psalm 89 | When the Crown Is in the Dust: Ethan's Cry and the Covenant Still Standing
Ethan the Ezrahite was no ordinary man. He was a man of wisdom—so much so that Solomon’s brilliance was measured against him (1 Kings 4:31). A Levite, perhaps, or a temple musician, Ethan wasn’t just a singer of songs—he was a seer of the covenant. He knew the promises of YHWH.

Zion Is Not a Flag: Exposing the Lie of Modern Zionism
Yahushua didn’t come waving a flag or calling for statehood. He came to fulfill the Torah, to call the lost sheep of Yisra’ĕl back to the Father, and to restore the covenant through His own blood.

The Scapegoat at the Gate: When the Church Rejects the Word
People call you loud, or offensive.
But it’s not volume they’re reacting to—
it’s the weight of truth you carry.
And truth makes people squirm.
Their darkness reacting to your light, and often neither knows its taking place.
It happens in the workplace.
It happens in families.
And yes, it happens—painfully—in churches.

Loving the Wicked? Why Mercy Is the Most Powerful Weapon You Have
There’s a kind of warfare that doesn’t scream or shout.
It weeps.
It pleads.
It falls facedown and dares to cry out, “Father… forgive them.”
And hell hates it.
Because mercy disarms the accuser.
Mercy echoes the cross.
Mercy crushes the serpent.
But if you’ve ever dared to pray for the wicked, you’ve probably heard it:

The “If” of Covenant Is Returning
We are living in a generation that clings to the promises of God—yet forgets the pathway that leads to them. "God's promises are unconditional!" we shout, while the very Word of God declares again and again:
“If you walk in My ways…”
“If you keep My commandments…”
“If you humble yourselves…”
“If you abide in Me…”

Breaking Generational Cycles: Choosing YHWH No Matter Your Lineage
In Scripture, we see a powerful truth—we are not bound by the choices of those who came before us. We are not defined by our family’s past, the mistakes of our ancestors, or even the expectations of the world.
YHWH gives each of us the ability to choose righteousness, to walk in His ways, and to become part of His set-apart people.

“You Are a Samaritan and Have a Demon”: How the Pharisees Fulfilled the Spirit of Sennacherib
When the Pharisees accused Yahushua in John 8:48, saying, “Do we not say well that You are a Samaritan and have a demon?”, they weren’t just slinging random insults. They were revealing a deep spiritual pattern of rebellion that reaches all the way back to Ephraim, Sennacherib, and the divided kingdom of Israel.
The Wedge or Stylus: A Symbol of False Wisdom

Bible Study: Brother vs. Neighbor: Understanding Jesus’ Relationships
Hebrews 2:11 (ESV) states, "For he who sanctifies and those who are sanctified all have one source. That is why he is not ashamed to call them brothers."
This verse beautifully captures the intimate relationship between Jesus and those He has redeemed.

A Prayer for Clarity and Courage | Asking The Lord for Guidance: When to Leave an Unhealthy Church
Heavenly Father,
You are the Good Shepherd, and Your voice leads Your sheep in truth and righteousness. Today, I come before You with a heart weighed down by confusion, longing for clarity. You have called us to be part of Your Church, the body of Christ, where truth, love, and holiness dwell. Yet, Lord, I find myself in a place where Your Word feels misused, where leadership is prideful, and where my spirit is unsettled.

Prayer For The Lost And Grieving
You are the God of all comfort, the One who sees every tear and knows every sorrow. You are also the Good Shepherd who seeks the lost, desiring that none should perish but that all should come to repentance.

If You Knew the Gift of God: How I Almost Missed What Jesus Was Showing Me
There was a time when I didn’t recognize what Jesus was showing me. I had no idea what was happening spiritually around me, even when He took me to New Jerusalem. I saw the glory of God—but I didn’t even know what I was looking at. I didn’t recognize it because I didn’t know Him. I didn’t know His Word. And without knowing Him, how could I possibly understand what He was revealing to me?

A Prayer for Wisdom and Humility
You are the Source of all wisdom, and we come before You, recognizing that we can do nothing apart from You. As it is written, "If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives generously to all without reproach" (James 1:5). We come with open hearts, asking You for the wisdom that comes from above—pure, peaceable, gentle, and full of mercy (James 3:17).

The Strength of Abigail: When Submission Means Standing for Righteousness
Let’s be real: in today’s world, submission doesn’t exactly conjure the warm fuzzies. We hear the word, and what comes to mind? Doormat? Weakness? Passivity? For me, it always reminds me of Hillary Clinton’s scorn, during an interview in 1992, when she was asked about the ongoing allegations against her husband, Bill Clinton, and she responded by saying, "I'm not some little woman standing by my man like Tammy Wynette."
Enough said. I’ll let you chew on that for a bit.

From Striving to Dwelling: How the Name Israel Leads Us to Immanuel
Have you ever felt like you're wrestling with God—struggling to understand, to trust, or to simply hold on? If so, you’re not alone. In fact, the very name Israel means “He strives with God.” It was first given to Jacob after he wrestled with God and prevailed (Genesis 32:28). …But here’s the incredible part of the story: God never intended for His people to strive forever. He had a greater promise in mind—Immanuel, which means "God with us." …

Reclaiming the Word | Isaiah 64:6—Your Righteous Pursuit is Not Filthy Rags
Have you ever felt like your best efforts to live righteously are worthless? Maybe you didn’t even think about it until you went to church on Sunday and your pastor completely twisted Isaiah 64, and as you looked around wondering if anyone else noticed, the guilt set in; the shame set in… Because no matter what you do to honor God, all your works amount to nothing more than "filthy rags"?
Praise Him according to His Excellent Greatness
— Psalm 150:2
