By His Stripes: What the Suffering Servant Carried for Us

By His Stripes: What the Suffering Servant Carried for Us

Truly, He has borne our sicknesses
and carried our pains.
Yet we reckoned Him stricken,
smitten by Elohim, and afflicted.

But He was pierced for our transgressions,
He was crushed for our crookednesses.
The chastisement for our peace was upon Him,
and by His stripes we are healed.

Returning to True Wisdom: Raising Children Who See

We are watching a world grow colder with each generation, and the fruit of that chill is visible in the hearts of our children. Joy without compassion. Confidence without character. Morality without the Spirit of Yahweh. We call it innocence, but much of it is simply detachment—a learned blindness passed down through well-meaning parents who were themselves raised in broken systems.

The Name Nailed to the Cross

The Name Nailed to the Cross

And above Him… A sign. Simple, wooden, Roman. But in the language of Heaven, it screamed.

"Yahushua HaNotzri V’Melech HaYehudim."
(Jesus the Nazarene and King of the Jews)

A phrase Pilate thought was political.
But what it really said—what it spelled in Hebrew
was nothing short of divine thunder:

Yod – Heh – Vav – Heh
יהוה

The Name.
The Covenant Name.

The Fox Will Fall: Three Enemies, One Spirit of Opposition

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.

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.

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…”

haShem: When God Marks You With His Name

I didn’t know what it meant… once I looked it up, I thought,
Why not Yahweh or Elohim or Adonai?

Maybe because I know those names?
Why haShem—the reverent way Jewish people say “The Name” without saying the Name?

But He kept saying it.
And just listened. He revealed.

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.
