Mother’s Day Blessings To You Today

Mother’s Day Blessings to all the women who have stepped into the sacred role of motherhood—whether natural or spiritual—understanding that becoming a Proverbs 31 woman is a beautiful and lifelong pursuit before Adonai.

Motherhood is a God-given blessing. The fruit of the womb is His reward, and children are a precious gift that should always be regarded as such.

Enjoy this day that has been set aside to honor you, and remember that motherhood never truly ends. We raise our children, nurture them, give them room to grow, love them deeply, and then have the joy of walking beside them as they learn to mother and nurture others themselves. What a beautiful blessing Abba has entrusted to us.

So hold on—but not too tightly. Be present. Be loving. Be available with wisdom, encouragement, and grace. And above all, give thanks as you watch the beautiful fruit of your life continue to ripen, reproduce, and carry forth His goodness from generation to generation to generation.

May we all strive to be the Proverbs 31 woman that YHVH Himself formed and fashioned us to be, through Yeshua the Messiah.

Amen.

Proverbs 31:10-31

“Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.”


— Proverbs 31:10 (KJV)

Proverbs 31:10-31
King James Version
10 Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.

11 The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil.

12 She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life.

13 She seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands.

14 She is like the merchants’ ships; she bringeth her food from afar.

15 She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth meat to her household, and a portion to her maidens.

16 She considereth a field, and buyeth it: with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard.

17 She girdeth her loins with strength, and strengtheneth her arms.

18 She perceiveth that her merchandise is good: her candle goeth not out by night.

19 She layeth her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff.

20 She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy.

21 She is not afraid of the snow for her household: for all her household are clothed with scarlet.

22 She maketh herself coverings of tapestry; her clothing is silk and purple.

23 Her husband is known in the gates, when he sitteth among the elders of the land.

24 She maketh fine linen, and selleth it; and delivereth girdles unto the merchant.

25 Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come.

26 She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness.

27 She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.

28 Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.

29 Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all.

30 Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised.

31 Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates.

No Weapon Formed Against Us Shall Prosper In Jesus Name

We do not bow to fear.
We stand firm.
We watch and stand before YHWH in the Courts of Heaven, clothed in faith, truth, and the authority of His Word.

No virus, no plague, no scheme of darkness shall by any means harm us.

YHWH alone created the heavens and the earth—the sun, moon, stars, waters, vegetation, creatures, and mankind by His mighty hand.
We will not be moved.
We will not be deceived.
The devil is a liar and the father of lies.

Therefore we decree:
Devil, cease and desist in the Name above every name—Jesus Christ, Yeshua HaMashiach.
We discern your devices and expose your works of fear, confusion, and intimidation.
We enter the Courts of Heaven under the authority of the Blood of Jesus and declare:
“No weapon formed against us shall prosper.”
No virus.
No terror.
No assignment of darkness will prevail against the people of God.

Abba Father, You see every scheme of the enemy against Your people.
Arise in Your glory and let Your light shine through us like the brightness of the noonday sun.
Lord Jesus, lead us, guide us, guard us, protect us, and provide for us according to Your mercy and power.

We declare the Blood of Jesus over every believer, every home, every gate, every door, every waterway, and every territory You have entrusted to us.
We will not bow.
We will not bend.
We belong to the Most High God.

As believers in Jesus Christ, we refuse to be vessels of fear, gossip, panic, or unbelief.
We will guard our mouths and align our words with Heaven.
Death and life are in the power of the tongue, therefore we choose life.
We will not fall to the whisper of the serpent saying, “Has God truly said?”
We know His Word.
We believe His Word.
We declare His Word in faith and authority.

We are watchmen upon the walls.
We are warriors at the gates.
And with one voice we declare:
“Not today, devil.”

We will stand united.
We will stand watchful.
We will stand unwavering in faith.

Jesus is LORD.
Amen.

Scripture Of The Week By JoBeth Kested

Scripture for the week of May 3, 2026
By JoBeth Kested

Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand. Isaiah 41:10

Have you ever been paralyzed by an overwhelming fear that seems to shatter all hope and quench all your faith? Fear is the friend of doubt and unbelief and the robber of our faith. The KJV Bible mentions “fear not,” “do not fear,” and “do not be afraid” 110 times and it is usually followed by exhortations declaring that the Lord is with you. God makes five promises in this scripture: 1) He is with you. 2) He is your God. 3) He gives strength to replace your weariness. 4) He will help you. 5) He will hold you up in the power of His righteousness. So, let’s trust the power of His presence, strength and righteousness to overcome all our fears of failure and inadequacy that try to overwhelm us. May our hope be renewed and faith strengthened in these assurances of God’s steadfast love, goodness and provision for us today.

Scripture for the week of April 26, 2026
By JoBeth Kested

The Lord, your God, is in your midst, a warrior who gives victory; He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will renew you in his love; He will exult over you with loud singing. Zephaniah 3:17 (NRSV)

Have ever had or are you currently in the midst of one of those difficult times where everything seems to be just too much, too hard, or too impossible? Sometimes the hard stuff feels so overwhelming when we are also battling the wounds of abandonment, betrayal or loneliness without any hope for help. This scripture reminds us that our God is with us as a mighty warrior, our champion El-Gibbor, that fights for us to bring victory into our seemingly impossible situations. We must remember that our Heavenly Father delights in us and rejoices over us with gladness. He longs to renew our faith and strength in the assurance of the reality of His loving presence. So, be encouraged with renewed hope and faith in God’s extravagant love for you! Be assured that the awesome Lord God Almighty is fighting for you and singing rejoicing songs of gladness with shouts of joy to bring you into victory! Hallelujah! Yaaay God!

Living from the Tree of Life — The Bridge of Iyar

Living from the Tree of Life — The Bridge of Iyar


Scripture Focus:

Revelation 3:20 (CJB)
“Here, I’m standing at the door, knocking. If someone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he will eat with me.”

Devotional Reflection

The month of Iyar stands as a sacred bridge—a hinge between Nissan, where we remember the death, burial, and resurrection of Yeshua, and Sivan, where the Word was given and the Ruach HaKodesh was poured out.

It is in this in-between place that we are invited to live from the Tree of Life.

To live from the Tree of Life is to remain rooted in Yeshua—the Way, the Truth, and the Life—allowing His life to flow through us so that others may taste and see His goodness.

Iyar asks us a searching question:
What kind of bridge are we becoming?

Are we drawing others closer to Yeshua… or unknowingly pushing them further away?

A life rooted in the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil tends to measure, judge, and divide.
But a life rooted in the Tree of Life restores, invites, and reconciles.

We are called to be bridges that carry His presence.

Are we:

  • A smooth bridge, making the path easier for weary souls?
  • A steady hinge, firmly fixed to the Door—Yeshua—helping others enter into Life?
  • A musical bridge, bringing rest, beauty, and transition in the middle of someone’s storm?

Yeshua is the Door. He is the One who opens what no one can shut and shuts what no one can open (Revelation 3:7). And yet, in His mercy, He chooses to position us as living connections—hinges that remain fastened to Him, moving only as He moves.

When we abide in Him, our lives begin to harmonize with Heaven.

We no longer strive to create something impressive—we simply release what we are connected to.

The Great Commission is not fulfilled through pressure, but through presence.

As we live from the Tree of Life, we become invitations.

We become:

  • voices that echo His truth,
  • lives that reflect His love,
  • and pathways that lead others home.

Reflection Question

Am I living from the Tree of Life—drawing others closer to Yeshua through love, truth, and humility?
Or have I been operating from a place that creates distance rather than connection?

Closing Prayer

Abba Father,

Thank You for the invitation to live from the Tree of Life through Yeshua.
Root my heart deeply in Him, that everything I release would carry Your life and not my own striving.

Teach me to be a bridge that draws others closer, not pushes them away.
Make me a steady hinge, firmly fixed to the Door—moving only at Your leading.

Let my life become a song that brings rest in the storm and hope to the weary.
Align me with Your heart, Your truth, and Your Spirit.

May I walk in humility, love, and obedience as I fulfill the commission You have given.

In Yeshua’s Name,
Amen.

Declaration-Living as a Bridge of Life

I declare and decree that I will be a smooth bridge, making the path easier for weary souls.

I will be a steady hinge, firmly fixed to the Door—Yeshua—helping others enter into Life.

I will be a musical bridge, bringing rest, beauty, and holy transition in the midst of someone’s storm.

I submit myself to You, Abba Father, and I yield fully to Your Spirit.

Let my life be rooted in the Tree of Life, not striving in my own understanding, but flowing from Your presence.

Align my heart with Yours.
Establish my steps in truth.
Guard my words, that they would carry life and not division.

Make me an instrument of reconciliation, a vessel of honor, and a reflection of Your love.

Let everything I release draw others closer to Yeshua—the Way, the Truth, and the Life.

I choose humility.
I choose obedience.
I choose love.

I will walk as a bridge that connects, not separates.
I will stand as a hinge that moves only at Your leading.

And through my life, may others encounter Your goodness, Your truth, and Your eternal invitation.

In Yeshua’s Name,
Amen.

Scripture Of The Week By JoBeth Kested

Scripture for the week of April 19, 2026
By JoBeth Kested

But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should show forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvelous light; 1 Peter 2:9 (NKJV)

Have you ever felt like a misfit, too different or unacceptable to others around you; your friends, at work or in your family? Sometimes it can be so hard to handle those inner voices that say, “You don’t fit”, ” Not good enough”, or “Never going to make it”. What an encouragement to find in this scripture what God has to say about you. You are a chosen one! You are a part of the elite inner circle with access to God; a Holy nation! And, you are part of a distinctive people that have accepted God’s invitation to come out of the dark painful, depressing and hopeless places into the marvelous light of His love! So lift your heart, your hands and your voice to praise the Lord because you are a chosen, special one with the opportunity to display His goodness and glory to all those around you in this world! Thank You, Lord!

Scripture Of The Week By JoBeth Kested

Scripture for the week of April 12, 2026
By JoBeth Kested

Do not call to mind the former things, or ponder things of the past. “Behold, I will do something new, now it will spring forth; will you not be aware of it? I will even make a roadway in the wilderness, rivers in the desert. Isaiah 43:18-19 (NASB)

Have you ever watched high flying acrobats swinging back and forth in a circus? It is so breathtaking to watch them release one swing in order to fly reaching for the next swing and safety. It seems in these verses that God is telling us that we must let go of the former and past things we are clinging to, so we can be free to reach for the new things He is preparing for us that we can’t even see yet! He is able to do sudden things like showing us the way when we feel lost and to even provide what we need in desperate places. Lord, help us let go of anything we are holding on to that keeps us from reaching for the new and blessed things you have prepared for us. Help us to find your roadway in our wilderness and Your river of life in the desert places. Yes, Amen.

Scripture Of The Week By JoBeth Kested

Scripture for the week of April 4, 2026
By JoBeth Kested

Jesus… asked his disciples, “Who do people say the Son of Man is?” They replied, “Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.” “But what about you?” he asked. “Who do you say I am?” Simon Peter answered, “You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God.” Matthew 16:13-17 (NIV)

Throughout the last 2000 years the question is still being asked, “Who is Jesus?” Many are still saying that he was a good man or spiritual teacher, while others say he was a prophet. In these verses Jesus commends Simon Peter for declaring the truth that He is the Messiah. Jesus acknowledges in this scripture, and many other verses, that He is the Son of God. He also declares in John 14:6 that He is the Way, the Truth and the Life; that no one comes to the Father accept through Him. We don’t get the option to believe that Jesus is just a good man, a teacher, or one of many prophets. We must face the fact that He is either a liar, a lunatic or the Lord as He says He is. Jesus is still asking each of us the question, “Who do you say that I am?” This Easter morning, do you know Him as the promised Messiah, the risen Lord resurrected from the grave? To all who believe, He is still showing The Way, The Truth, and The Life. He Is Risen, He Is Risen Indeed!

Scripture Of The Week By JoBeth Kested

Scripture for the week of March 29, 2026
By JoBeth Kested

Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7 (NLT)

Have you ever wondered how to find peace in the midst of difficult and overwhelming situations? Peace is something money cannot buy, but I am sure there are times we would gladly pay for it if we could. Though not always easy, these two verses show us in a few simple steps God’s pathway to finding His peace. 1) Don’t waste your time worrying. 2) Talk to God about everything. 3) He wants us to bring Him all our needs. 4) Be sure to thank Him for all He does for you. Then we are promised God’s miraculous peace that passes all our understanding. Peace that protects our hearts and minds beyond anything we can imagine as we live the life that is given to us in Jesus. Prayer is just simply talking to God and is the entry way to walking in His path of peace for you today and always.

One Lamb Per Household

One Lamb for the Household

Generational Salvation through the Lamb of God – Yeshua (Jesus)

Scripture Focus

Exodus 12:3 – “Each man is to take a lamb for his family, one lamb for the household.”

Devotional

Nissan is the first month in God’s appointed calendar—His beginning of beginnings. This is important. It marks a divine reset, a sacred invitation into His times and seasons.

You are not forced to observe the Feasts of the Lord. Abba will never remove your free will. Salvation through Yeshua (Jesus) is secure for those who believe. Yet, there are blessings connected to honoring what He calls holy. When we choose His ways, we step into deeper alignment with His heart.

In Exodus 23:20–33, we see beautiful promises connected to walking in His ways:

  • Divine protection
  • Victory through alignment and positioning
  • Commissioned authority
  • Supernatural health and provision
  • Multiplication and longevity
  • A holy fear released upon enemies
  • Relief from adversaries
  • Dominion and increased inheritance
  • Freedom from corrupt covenants

Nissan begins the cycle of First Fruits and carries within it Passover—the foundation of redemption. This is a powerful time to learn, to remember, and to celebrate.

From the beginning, Adonai established a profound principle: one lamb for one household. If a household was too small, they were instructed to share with their neighbor. This was never meant to be isolated—it was always communal, always generational.

Yeshua (Jesus), our Messiah, is that Lamb.

John 1:29 declares: “Behold, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!”

And through Him:

Revelation 12:11 reminds us that we overcome “by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony.”

This is not just theology—it is inheritance.

Many believers are awakening to the Hebraic roots of their faith, recognizing that God operates within a sacred calendar He established from the very beginning. In Genesis, when God spoke creation into existence, He also set times and seasons in motion—appointed moments to meet with Him.

These Feasts are not burdens; they are invitations.

The call is not merely to know about God, but to live from the Tree of Life—to love what He loves, simply because we love Him.

James 4:7–8 calls us deeper:

“Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee… Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you.”

Through Yeshua, we are brought into what Ephesians 2:14–16 calls “one new humanity.” He Himself is our peace—removing division and reconciling us to God through His sacrifice.

This does not remove us from God’s appointed times—it invites us into them.

Passover reveals the heart of the Father:

A Lamb given.

A household covered.

A people delivered.

When the blood was applied to the doorposts in Egypt, it marked protection, deliverance, and covenant. Today, through Yeshua, we apply that same truth spiritually—over our lives, our families, and our generations.

This is why “one Lamb for the household” still speaks today.

It is an invitation to:

  • Cover your family in the finished work of Jesus
  • Declare salvation over your household
  • Share the Good News with those near you

As Yeshua said in Mark 16:15:

“Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.”

A Heart Posture of Celebration

We do not celebrate Passover out of religious obligation—but out of relationship.

We gather, we remember, we give thanks.

We honor the Lamb—Yeshua—who brought us from death into life.

Each year, we ask the Lord to teach us how to celebrate His ways more fully, more purely, and more intimately.

And as we do, He reveals more of His heart.

A Gentle Invitation

Take a moment and ask the Lord:

“Abba, how do You want me to honor You in this season?”

He is faithful to guide you into all truth (John 16:13).

There are many traditions in the world, but not all of them reflect His Word. This is not about condemnation—it is about invitation. The Word of God is complete, living, and full of truth.

He desires closeness with you.

Reflection Question

What would it look like for me and my household to intentionally honor the Lamb in this season?

Decree & Prayer

Father, in Yeshua’s Name,

I thank You for the Lamb—Jesus the Messiah—given for my household.

Today, I apply the blood of the Lamb over my life, my family, and my generations.

I declare that I have passed over from death into life by the blood of the Lamb.

I thank You for Your deliverance, Your protection, and Your covenant promises.

I ask for salvation to flow through my household and to those near me.

Teach me to honor You in Your appointed times.

Show me how to love what You love.

Holy Spirit, lead me into all truth.

May the Shalom of Yeshua be my portion always,

And may I receive all that You have for me.

In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

Closing Blessing

Yeshua (Jesus) is King of kings and Lord of lords.

May His Shalom—His wholeness and peace—rest upon you and your household.

Blessings and Shalom,

Love Beyond Measure,

Beth Auman
