When we hear the word Hineiniâ”Here I am,” many of us immediately think of the prophet Isaiah in chapter 6, standing before the throne of God, overwhelmed by His holiness. After being cleansed by the burning coal, Isaiah hears the Lord ask, “Whom shall I send?” and responds with the now-famous phrase: “HineiniâHere am I. Send me.”

Following Yeshua (Jesus) isnât just about believing the right things or checking boxes. Itâs about wanting to truly know God â to experience Him personally. And hereâs the amazing part: even that desire starts with Him. God is the one who stirs our hearts and awakens our longing. If you find yourself hungry for more of Him, itâs because Heâs already working in you.

There is a sacred truth buried deep in Scripture that many believers never fully embrace: you have been given authority through the Messiah, not someday, but now. It is not reserved for the spiritually elite. It is not earned through effort. It is your inheritance as a child of God. And this authority was purchased at the Cross and activated the moment you were born again.
Donât stop now â more truth and grace await.
Many of us can recite Yeshuaâs (Jesus’) words about the two greatest commandmentsâloving God and loving our neighborâbut we often miss how deeply intertwined they are. We treat them like separate tasks: one for God, one for people. But in Greek, Yeshua uses the phrase homoia aute, which means âlike to it.â The second commandment isnât just next in lineâit shares the same nature.

True freedom isnât found in isolation, but in surrender to God.
Keep going â the Lord may have more to show you.
We often think of freedom as the ability to do what we want, when we want, without interference.

Life wears us down. We live in a world of relentless motion, pressure, and performance. Yeshua (Jesus) doesnât deny this. Instead, He speaks directly to those who are âweary and heavy-laden.â The Greek for âwearyâ (kopiao) means utterly worn outâsoul-tired, not just physically fatigued. The burdens He mentions arenât only external tasks but inward baggage: guilt, shame, expectations, and hidden wounds. Yeshuaâs call isnât merely an invitation to stopâitâs a call to come. He offers what no one else can: rest that restores.
