Isaiah 40:30-31 “Even youths grow tired and weary and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary; they will walk and not be faint.”
Hope in the context of Isaiah 40:30-31 is the word Qavah. Strong’s #6960. Binding together, eagerly waiting for, hoping for, looking for, expecting.
Give your problem, your weakness to Yeshua. Only He can renew your strength. There is hope. Remember His word. As you read the scriptures, remembering, you will see His consistent covenantal faithfulness and that will give you hope for your future.
2 Chronicles 16:9 “For the eyes of the Lord range throughout the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to Him.”
Read Hebrews 6:13-19. The certainty of God’s promise. May verse 18 and 19 also encourage you today. “God did this so that, by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled to take hold of the hope offered to us, may be greatly encouraged. We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure.”
- The Oath That Made a People : Nitzavim September 17, 2026A commentary on Parashah Nitzavim (Deuteronomy 29:9–30:20) Scripture quotations are from the American Standard Version (1901). Verse numbers in Deuteronomy follow the Hebrew text; English Bibles run one verse higher in this section. 1. Standing in a covenant that was sworn before you were born Nitzavim opens with Israel standing — nitzavim — […]
- Ha’azinu: Luister na die Lied van die Rots September 17, 2026Die naam Ha’azinu beteken “Luister!” Hierdie Torahgedeelte, Deuteronomium 32, bevat die lied wat Moses kort voor sy dood aan Israel geleer het. Dit herinner die volk aan YHVH se trou, waarsku hulle teen geestelike afvalligheid en eindig met die hoop op herstel en versoening. Moses begin deur sy woorde met reën en dou […]
- STAAN, KIES EN WANDEL : NITZAVIM – VAYELECH August 29, 2026Nitzavim–Vayelech : Deuteronomium 29:10–31:30 Hierdie week lees ons ’n dubbele Torah-gedeelte, Nitzavim en Vayelech, en saam bring hierdie twee gedeeltes ons by een van die aangrypendste oomblikke in die Torah. In Nitzavim–Vayelech staan Israel op die vlaktes van Moab. Die woestynreis is amper verby. Die Beloofde Land lê voor hulle. Moses weet dat […]
- WANNEER JY INKOM – KI TAVO August 24, 2026DIE KERN BOODSKAPPE VAN KI TAVO: Onthou waaruit YHVH jou gebring het, wees dankbaar vir waar Hy jou gebring het, en wanneer jy Sy seën binnestap, moenie die Gewer vergeet nie. Ki Tavo (כִּי־תָבוֹא) beteken “Wanneer jy inkom.” Israel staan op die punt om die Beloofde Land binne te gaan. Ná jare in […]
- WANNEER GELOOF DEEL WORD VAN JOU ALLEDAAGSE LEWE – KI TETZE August 16, 2026Ki Tetze (כִּי־תֵצֵא) beteken “Wanneer jy uittrek” of “Wanneer jy uitgaan.” Hierdie Torah-gedeelte bevat meer gebooie as enige ander porsie en raak ’n verstommende verskeidenheid aspekte van die alledaagse lewe aan: gesinsverhoudings, die huwelik, werk, geregtigheid, die versorging van kwesbares, eerlikheid in besigheid, goedheid teenoor diere en selfs die terugbesorging van iets wat verlore […]
- SHOFTIM – WIE REGEER MY HART? August 11, 2026Die woorde waarmee hierdie gedeelte begin, bly deur die eeue heen weerklink: “Geregtigheid, geregtigheid moet jy najaag.” Deuteronomium 16:20 Shoftim (שֹׁפְטִים) beteken “regters”. Israel staan op die drumpel van die Beloofde Land, en YHVH leer hulle dat dit nie genoeg is om die land bloot in besit te neem nie. Hulle moet daarin […]
- Kies Lewe deur die Koning te Volg – Parasha Re’eh August 5, 2026"Kyk (Re'eh), Ek hou vandag voor julle die seën en die vloek." (Deut 11:26) Die eerste woord van hierdie week se Parasha is Re'eh, wat beteken "Kyk!" Dit is merkwaardig dat Moses die volk in die enkelvoud aanspreek. Al staan die hele volk voor hom, spreek hy elke persoon individueel aan. Elkeen moes […]
- Walking in the Footsteps of Covenant – Ekev July 27, 2026The Hebrew word Ekev (עקב) literally means heel or because. It carries the beautiful picture of following in someone's footsteps. Just as a heel leaves a footprint behind, Israel was called to walk in the footsteps of YHVH's covenant. The blessings described in this parashah were not random rewards, but the natural fruit of […]
- The Heart That Hears : Va’etchanan July 20, 2026The name Va'etchanan, meaning "I pleaded" or "I earnestly sought favor," reflects Moses' heartfelt plea to YHVH from the plains of Moab, begging to enter the Promised Land. Despite Elohim's loving refusal, Moses, rather than dwelling on his disappointment, dedicates his final days to preparing the Israelites for a future he will not witness. […]
- From Tears to Hope : The month of Av July 16, 2026The month of Av is one of the most significant months on the biblical calendar. At first glance it seems to be marked by sorrow, yet beneath its ashes lies a remarkable promise of restoration.
