Haderekh Messianic Devotional

“He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him and honour him.” Psalm 91:15 Before a pilot is allowed to fly solo, fly at night, fly over a certain height, carry passengers, or fly into potentially hazardous conditions, such as poor visibility or bad weather, they are tested to ensure they are competent to survive and to bring themselves, the plane and any passengers safely back to an airport.  These are some of the steps they need to remember in the event they encounter bad weather or poor visibility. Knowing and practicing these steps will...

‘Do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit… bought at a price; therefore, glorify Yehovah in your body and in your spirit, which are Yehovah’s.’ 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 We have a soul which houses our mind, intellect and emotions. We also need a temporary body while we are on the earth. As the Ruach Hakodesh lives within us, as our comforter and guide, we no longer own our own body! There are some great advantages to not being the owner of the property, as whoever has responsibility for it may find that it is a costly matter. Yeshua, however, has paid for all the...

‘…Present your bodies a living sacrifice…’ Romans 12:1 (NKJV) Since becoming a follower of Yeshua, you are different, whether you feel like it or not! When you were born again, your body stayed the same; if you were short or tall, fat or thin, that did not change. Equally, your mind did not change; if you were academic, intelligent, creative or scientific, you stayed that way. It is your spirit that is recreated; made alive, and that part of you was perfected forever when you opened your heart and life to Yeshua. The Scriptures explain it like this: ‘Therefore if anyone is in Yeshua [that...

“But seek ye first the kingdom of Yehovah...” Matthew 6:33 A friend of mine once said, “If we do nothing, we die, and if we do something, we die; so why bother trying to make a difference? Simple; those that do nothing leave nothing behind but failure, while those who do something leave a ladder up which those who consider themselves failures can climb out of despair.” What challenging and inspiring words.It seems the closer we approach “the end times” and the day of the Yeshua’s return, the more people appear to be taken up building their own empires and making this natural life more...

“Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give.” Matthew 10:8 “Rescue the perishing.” It is a phrase we seldom hear any more in most of our me-centric, self-centred, often feelings-based fellowship meetings. We can easily equate how well a service went, how well the preacher spoke, how good the praise and worship time went” by how good those things made us, personally, feel. People often come out with comments like, “I did not enjoy …… in church today.” A wonderful response to that, which few of us would ever dare to say, would be,...

“And they went to another village.” Luke 9:56 If you were invited for lunch at a friend’s house and, because you were still sitting there at 10.30pm, one of your friends excused themselves, got up, went upstairs and reappeared in their pyjamas, with a teddy bear in one hand and an alarm clock in the other, said goodnight and went to bed, you would know you had simply overstayed your welcome and it was time to leave. But when Yeshua told the disciples to go and preach the gospel, He said if they went somewhere they were shunned and not welcomed, they should shake the dust from their feet and...
