שְׁמַע יִשְׂרָאֵל — The Shema

The foundational declaration of faith — spoken morning and evening

📅 Morning & Evening · All Occasions

שְׁמַע יִשְׂרָאֵל, יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ, יְהוָה אֶחָד׃
בָּרוּךְ שֵׁם כְּבוֹד מַלְכוּתוֹ לְעוֹלָם וָעֶד׃
וְאָהַבְתָּ אֵת יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ בְּכָל־לְבָבְךָ
וּבְכָל־נַפְשְׁךָ וּבְכָל־מְאֹדֶךָ׃

Sh’ma Yisra’el, YAHUAH Eloheinu, YAHUAH Echad!
Baruch shem k’vod malkhuto l’olam va’ed.
V’ahavta et YAHUAH Elohekha b’khol l’vavkha
uv’khol nafsh’kha uv’khol m’odekha.

Hear, O Israel, YAHUAH is our Elohim, YAHUAH is One!

Blessed be the Name of His glorious Kingdom forever and ever.

And you shall love YAHUAH your Elohim with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.

📖 Deuteronomy 6:4–5 · Mark 12:29–30 · Matthew 22:37

💡 Messianic note: Yeshua called this the greatest commandment (Mark 12:28–30). Speak it with your whole heart — it is both a declaration and a prayer. Many Messianic families say it together before bed and upon waking.

🕊️ The Lord’s Prayer — Tefillat HaAdon

🕊️

תְּפִלַּת הָאָדוֹן — Tefillat HaAdon

The model prayer given by Yeshua — the very heartbeat of Messianic prayer

📅 Daily · Any Time

אָבִינוּ שֶׁבַּשָּׁמַיִם, יִתְקַדֵּשׁ שִׁמְךָ׃
תָּבוֹא מַלְכוּתְךָ, יֵעָשֶׂה רְצוֹנְךָ
כְּמוֹ בַשָּׁמַיִם, כֵּן בָּאָרֶץ׃
תֵּן לָנוּ הַיּוֹם לֶחֶם חֻקֵּנוּ׃
וּסְלַח לָנוּ אֶת חוֹבוֹתֵינוּ
כְּמוֹ שֶׁאָנוּ סוֹלְחִים לְחַיָּבֵינוּ׃
וְאַל תְּבִיאֵנוּ לִידֵי נִסָּיוֹן
כִּי אִם חַלְּצֵנוּ מִן הָרָע׃
כִּי לְךָ הַמַּלְכוּת וְהַגְּבוּרָה וְהַתִּפְאֶרֶת לְעוֹלְמֵי עוֹלָמִים, אָמֵן׃

Avinu she-bashamayim, yitkadesh shimkha.
Tavo malkhut’kha, ye’aseh r’tzon’kha
k’mo vashamayim, ken ba’aretz.
Ten lanu hayom lechem chukeinu.
Us’lach lanu et chovoteinu
k’mo she’anu sol’chim l’chayaveinu.
V’al t’vi’enu lidei nisayon
ki im chaltz’enu min hara.
Ki l’kha hamalkhut v’hagvura v’hatifaret l’ol’mei olamim. Amen.

Our Father in Heaven, hallowed be Your Name.

Your Kingdom come, Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us today our daily bread.

Forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors.

Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.

For Yours is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever and ever. Amen.

📖 Matthew 6:9–13 · Luke 11:2–4

💡 Messianic note: This prayer is deeply rooted in the Jewish prayer tradition. “Avinu” (Our Father) echoes the Amidah. The doxology — “For Yours is the Kingdom…” — reflects 1 Chronicles 29:11. Yeshua gave us a structure, not a script; let it guide your heart.

שֶׁתְּחַדֵּשׁ עָלַי אֶת הַיּוֹם הַזֶּה לְטוֹבָה וְלִבְרָכָה׃

for You have returned my soul to me with compassion — great is Your faithfulness!

Blessed are You, YAHUAH our Elohim, King of the universe,

who gives the rooster understanding to distinguish between day and night.

May it be Your will, YAHUAH our Elohim,

to renew this day for me in goodness and blessing.

📖 Lamentations 3:22–23 · Psalm 30:5 · Psalm 118:24

💡 Messianic note: “His mercies are new every morning” (Lam. 3:23) — this blessing makes that truth the very first words of your day. Try saying it before you pick up your phone! 📵

יְהוָה שְׂפָתַי תִּפְתָּח, וּפִי יַגִּיד תְּהִלָּתֶךָ׃
אַשְׁרֵי יוֹשְׁבֵי בֵיתֶךָ, עוֹד יְהַלְלוּךָ סֶּלָה׃
בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ
הַמְחַדֵּשׁ בְּכָל יוֹם תָּמִיד מַעֲשֵׂה בְרֵאשִׁית׃
הוֹדוּ לַיהוָה כִּי טוֹב, כִּי לְעוֹלָם חַסְדּוֹ׃
יְהִי שֵׁם יְהוָה מְבֹרָךְ מֵעַתָּה וְעַד עוֹלָם׃

YAHUAH s’fatai tiftach, ufi yagid t’hilatekha.
Ashrei yosh’vei veitekha, od y’hal’lukha selah.
Baruch Atah YAHUAH Eloheinu
ha-m’chadesh b’khol yom tamid ma’aseh v’reishit.
Hodu l’YAHUAH ki tov, ki l’olam chasdo.
Y’hi shem YAHUAH m’vorach me’atah v’ad olam.

YAHUAH, open my lips, and my mouth shall declare Your praise.

Blessed are those who dwell in Your house; they are ever praising You. Selah.

Blessed are You, YAHUAH our Elohim,

who renews the work of creation each and every day.

Give thanks to YAHUAH, for He is good — His love endures forever.

May the Name of YAHUAH be blessed from now and forever.

📖 Psalm 51:15 · Psalm 84:4 · Psalm 118:1 · Psalm 113:2

💡 Messianic note: Kefa (Peter) and Yochanan (John) went to the Temple at the hour of Mincha prayer (Acts 3:1). Pausing at midday connects us to this ancient rhythm of devotion.

and raise us up, our King, to life.

Blessed is YAHUAH by day; blessed is YAHUAH by night.

📖 Psalm 31:5 · Psalm 4:8 · Luke 23:46

💡 Messianic note: “Into Your hands I commit my spirit” (Psalm 31:5) were the very last words Yeshua spoke from the cross (Luke 23:46). Every evening when you say this, you are echoing the trust of our Messiah. 🙌
