“Open my eyes, that I may see wondrous things out of your law.”
Psalm 119:18
Over the course of my life, whenever I loose focus, or start to feel a little down, it’s usually because I haven’t been spending enough time in The Word of Yahuah. Over the past several weeks, as Yah has been prompting me to spend more time with Him, it’s been helping me so much to feel more alive! The Law really is a light! Creating new content on YouTube is a byproduct of that light. I hope to keep sharing new scripture meditations every week @setapartheart. That way you’ll have something to enjoy between new music releases.
There are SO many golden nuggets in Psalms 119. I love that chapter. You may have already seen the scripture meditation that I posted on YouTube earlier this week. It’s called “Revive Me in Your Ways.” It’s based on excerpts from Psalm 119. Being the longest chapter in The Scriptures, if I had recorded the whole thing, it would have been a 20-30 min video. But this little 2 min scripture meditation is just long enough so you can play it again and again.
I pray this video helps The Word to go deeper for you. I pray it stays in your heart and mind, and helps to revive you if you’re feeling kind of cold. Remember, Proverbs 6:23 says, “For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life:” The law is light. Let The Word bring of Yahuah breathe new life and light in you today, so you can rest and be restored in Him.
The footage in the video below was all taken at Yosemite International Park back in July 2020 when my husband and I hiked up The Mist Trail together. Since then we’ve been back to Yosemite several times, and every time we see something new. So if you like these clips, let me know, I’d be happy to share more of these moments in Yah’s creation with you! Enjoy the video below.
“Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.”
Psalm 119:105
One verse that isn’t in the video which I also love is Psalm 119:105. A sister on YouTube reminded me of it in the comments. “Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.” The Law of Yahuah can bring you light on your darkest days. So if you ever feel dark or cold, especially on these cloudy winter days, choose to delight in the commands of Yahuah. I promise, it will change your life.
What’s your favorite verse in Psalm 119? Let me know in the comments below. And if you’re interested in me doing a full chapter scripture reading of Psalm 119 with Yahuah’s name – just a straight conversational reading, let me know that too. I know some people enjoy listening to the scriptures before going to sleep, while they sleep, or just while they are doing chores around the house. If that’s you, and you would enjoy having longer scripture readings in addition to these shorter meditations, I’d love to know your thoughts in the comments as well.
Ok, I’ll see you in the comments below!

Shalom Mishpacha! I know it’s been quite a while since my last blog post here at Set Apart Heart. How are you surviving the winter? I don’t know about you, but sometimes the winter months are hard for me. Even here in California, I really miss the sunshine. Regardless of the cold and cloudy days, Yahuah still reigns supreme! No matter what the weather, or circumstance in your life, Yahuah is, and always will be in control. He’s maker of the heavens and earth!
Exciting news. I’ve starteda brand new YouTube channel for Set Apart Heart. The original channel with the past 10 years of videos will still stay online as it is. I do plan to continue making music on the original channel in due time. Yah has just been tugging at my heart strings, telling me I need to spend more time just meditating on His word. And since there are so many distractions in life, I thought making scripture meditation videos, speaking aloud The Word of Yah, would be beneficial not only for my own spiritual journey, but for yours as well.
This week, Yah had me meditating on a few different Psalms and Proverbs that I pray will bless your heart. I put them together in a new video with footage from nature scenes that I experience in my every day life. The scenes are landscapes from our surrounding area, and the timelapse’s were all shot from my window at home. The rainbow at the end just so happened to shine for us on today, the very day I was finishing up this video! So cool right? Praise Yah. I pray that sharing these moments with you will help you relax and find rest in the beautiful Word of Yahuah. Enjoy the video below.
Our Help is in the name of יהוה,
Maker of the heavens and earth.
Psalms 124:8
Leave a comment below and let me know your thoughts on this new style of content. I’m open to suggestions as well if you have any verses you’d like me to make videos on for your meditation.
If you like the content on the new YouTube channel for @setapartheart I pray you will subscribe there, and share the content with those who might enjoy it too. I actually started the channel last week with a short relaxing video entitled, “Don’t Worry.” It’s just a little encouragement from Matthew Chapter 6, with clips from the sweet little birdies in my garden. I hope it blesses you as well.
Ok, I’ll see you in the comments below!

Shalom Mishpacha, I hope this message find you well. I have some new music for you! I finally finished the full arrangement of a song I wrote several years ago called, Be Still. And just in time for the feast of Atonement which is coming up soon. Yah be praised. I hope this music will help you to focus on Him.
“Be still, and know that I am Elohim; I am exalted among nations, I am exalted in the earth!
יהוה of hosts is with us; The Elohim of Ya‛aqoḇ is our refuge. Selah.”
Psalms 46:10,11
A lot of my heart, mind, and soul went into the arrangement of this song. And I’m SO happy that it’s available for you now. Not only to enjoy on YouTube, but offline as well. I pray that the message in this Psalm will lift your heart so that you can worship. In the midst of your trials, you can focus on the power of Yahuah. Be still and know that He is Yah!
The lyrics are based on Psalms 46. Especially Psalms 46:10. I encourage you to read the whole chapter. It’s powerful. As you spend time in Yah’s word, just pause and meditate on His power. His power not only formed this world, but His power can mold our hearts. Will you let Him mold your heart today?
I hope you enjoy the music in the video below.
Yahuah knows you. He’s calling you Higher. There is more work for you to do. Continue to trust in Him, and let Him lead.
Be Still is available now on iTunes/Apple, Spotify, Amazon, and soon everywhere else that music is available for streaming and downloads. I thank you SO VERY MUCH for all of your support over the years!! I pray this song will minister to your heart and become a part of your life offline and off YouTube as well. All praise be to Yahuah Most High. Be still and know the He is Yah.

‘And he showed me a river of water of life, clear as crystal, coming from the throne of Elohim and of the Lamb.’
Revelation 22:1
It’s the rainy season here in California. While some parts of the state have been flooding and experiencing terrible sink holes, by Yah’s mercy my husband and I have been blessed to see our garden soaking up all the rain. Yah has been really good and I have to give thanks.
We also spent some time away in Jamaica since last catching up with you. I’ve been feeling so renewed since coming back from our trip! While we were away, we spent most of our time swimming, snorkeling, watching sunsets, and just staring at the waves in ocean as you can see in the photo above. All that time by the water made me think of The Water of Life – The Living Water in the book of Revelation. That’s what inspired me to write this new song called “Living Water Flow.”
The focus of this scripture song comes from two of my favorite chapters in Yah’s word: Revelation 21 and Revelation 22. These chapters bring us to the end of the story, when all our troubles are over, and everything is beautiful and renewed. Scripture teaches us that Yahuah’s word is trustworthy and true. One day He’s coming back again to make everything brand new!
I pray the music and the message will motivate you to keep on walking in truth. Let’s look forward to that day when all will be renewed! Leave a comment below if the music makes you feel more peace, more hope, and a little more renewed. Enjoy the video below.
‘And I saw a renewed heaven and a renewed earth, for the former heaven and the former earth had passed away, and the sea is no more.’ And I, Yoḥanan, saw the set-apart city, renewed Yerushalayim, coming down out of the heaven from Elohim, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
And I heard a loud voice from the heaven saying, “See, the Booth of Elohim is with men, and He shall dwell with them, and they shall be His people, and Elohim Himself shall be with them and be their Elohim.
“And Elohim shall wipe away every tear from their eyes, and there shall be no more death, nor mourning, nor crying. And there shall be no more pain, for the former matters have passed away.”’
And He who was sitting on the throne said, “See, I make all matters new.” And He said to me, “Write, for these words are true and trustworthy.” And He said to me, “It is done! I am the ‘Aleph’ and the ‘Taw’, the Beginning and the End. To the one who thirsts I shall give of the fountain of the water of life without payment.’
Revelation 21:1-6
“Blessed are those doing His commands, so that the authority shall be theirs unto the tree of life, and to enter through the gates into the city.’
Revelation 22:14
Be encouraged Mishpacha. Let’s keep on walking on this journey together! This new song hasn’t been recorded yet, but the other music that I’ve previously recorded is right here.
After you hear “Living Water Flow,” let me know if you would like me to release this song as a single down in the comments below. Or if there’s another one of my songs from YouTube or the blog that isn’t on an album yet, and you’ve been waiting for it to be recorded, let me know. My goal is to have a new recording done before the Spring feasts this year. I’d love to start with your faves! Okay, see you in the comments. Talk soon!

Shalom Mishpacha. Even though I’ve been walking with Yahuah since the Spring of 2013, I can admit that there are still many things that I don’t fully understand. The book of Revelation is most definitely one of them. It’s full of prophecy and poetic mystery, and I look forward to the day when all will be fully revealed.
Even though Revelation is such a mysterious book, I still love to meditate on it. It paints an amazing picture of what is yet to come! The miraculous end of the story we have all believed in faith. The beginning of forever and ever, when Yahusha Ha Mashiyach establishes His reign of peace and truth forevermore.
Worthy is The Lamb of Yah!
‘And I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, and all that is in them, saying, “To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be blessing and honor and glory and might forever and ever!” ‘
Revelation 5:13
I’m SO glad that Yah doesn’t need us to understand all prophecy in order to be saved. The Lamb of Yah was slain for our sins, and now He asks us to walk in truth and follow His ways because we have accepted His precious gift of Life. He has redeemed us by His blood, and He is still redeeming us! Oh, how I look forward to the day when He comes to take us home!
The song I’m going to share with you today was written around Passover this year. It’s still not perfect, but I pray it brings your heart to a place of worship. If it’s meaningful for you, leave a comment that says, “Worthy is the Lamb of Yah!” Let’s worship Him together in Spirit and in Truth. Enjoy the video below.
‘And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to Elohim by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; ‘
Revelation 5:9
Yah bless and keep you so that you endure till the end. Let’s keep on looking up! I’ll see you in the comments below.

Hi there, I’m Hadarah Batyah. I sincerely believe that in order to have a spiritual walk that is authentic and true, the Word of Yahuah must be written on the inside of our hearts. That's why I write scripture songs and set apart music. Although I don’t have everything in my spiritual life all figured out, I know that Yahuah gave me the gift of music to serve Him and encourage your heart. I pray you'll be inspired by what you see on this blog. If you're curious and wanna know more- I tell it all on the About Page.
