God’s Verdict for You is Peace

My soul yearns for You in the night; in the morning my spirit longs for You.

Isaiah 26:9

Reading these words just does something to our spirit. Knowing prophet Isaiah, like many other men and women of God in the Bible, yearned for the Lord day and night; it truly touches something within our own soul and revives the desire in us to seek the Lord.

These words are an inner prayer, or an expression of what we feel inside for the Lord. Isaiah was expressing just how much He loves God, and it’s contagious.

As a pastor, when I share in front of the whole congregation my desire for the Lord, my experience with Him — it blessed others, as the passion for our Lord is contagious.

I want to encourage you; speak to people around you, especially with your family and loved ones about how much you love God, how much you seek Him and yearn for Him. Not in order to boast and show how “spiritual” you are, but just to share the genuine desire for God that’s in your heart.

Lord, You establish peace for us, all that we have accomplished, You have done for us.

Isaiah 26:12

In Hebrew the word for “establish peace” is tishpot, which refers to what a judge does in a court of law. Meaning, God’s verdict for us will be peace.

I pray that you will continue to seek the Lord, while being filled with passion for Him and desire to walk in His ways. May it transform you, give you boldness and humility. May His verdict over your life be PEACE.

When the Shofar Sounds:
Remember the God Who Still Speaks

As we prepare here in Israel to celebrate the Feast of Trumpets, I have been thinking about a sound that has echoed through the story of our people for thousands of years: the sound of the shofar. In Hebrew, this biblical feast is called Yom Teruah—the Day of the Shofar Blast, or the Day of Trumpet […]

All Things Are Possible

Sometimes we face situations where we simply do not see a way forward. We have prayed, we have waited, and maybe we have done everything we know to do, but nothing seems to change. After some time, we can begin to think, “Maybe this is impossible.” The Bible is full of people who found themselves […]

A Call to Draw Near:
Strengthening a New Generation of Believers in Israel

“Jesus went up on a mountainside and called to Him those He wanted, and they came to Him.” Mark 3:13 There are seasons when the voice of God can become difficult to hear beneath the noise of everyday life. Responsibilities, decisions, relationships, work, questions about the future—especially for young adults, life can pull the heart […]

When a Heart Begins to Open

Sometimes the most important thing happening in a room is something no one can see. A woman may sit quietly, listen without saying much, and give little indication that anything has changed. Yet a seed has been planted. The Word of God has reached somewhere beneath the surface. And sometimes it is only later that […]

He Saw Them —
Rosh HaShanah and Sukkot Evangelism Campaign

“But when He saw the multitudes, He was moved with compassion for them, because they were weary and scattered, like sheep having no shepherd.” Matthew 9:36 When Yeshua looked at a multitude, He never saw a number. He saw faces. He saw stories. He saw lives unfolding before Him—people carrying pain, questions, disappointments, fears, and […]

When God Leads You Somewhere New —
A Message from Joppa, Israel

There are seasons when life feels settled. Perhaps you have prayed for something, watched God answer, and finally reached a place where you can breathe again. There is nothing wrong with being grateful for that place. But today, standing in Joppa—the biblical city known today as Jaffa, on Israel’s Mediterranean coast—I am reminded of something powerful: sometimes […]
