Shalom 🙂 It’s Hadarah. I have some new music for you today! But first, a few thoughts to ponder.
How many times have you felt like your prayers have gone unanswered? Does it ever feel like it’s taking too long time to hear from Yah? When this happens, you might start to feel more and more alone. The new song I wrote this week reminds you that you’re never alone. I pray it brings you closer to Yahuah.
Having unanswered prayer is not an easy pill to swallow. Especially when you’re living what seems like a righteous life, or praying for things that seem to be in line with the will of Yah. But can we really know the will of Yahuah?
We can assume that we are praying according to what we think He wants for us, but sometimes, as humans, we can be a bit narrow minded. Wouldn’t you agree?
‘“For who has known the mind of יהוה? Or who has become His counsellor?” “Or who first gave to Him, and it shall be given back to him?” Because of Him, and through Him, and to Him, are all, to whom be esteem forever. Amĕn.’
Romans 11:34-36
Personal Testimony.
My husband and I want to have children, but it just hasn’t happened yet. Every year as we get older, I start to wonder if it’s going to happen at all. Is Yah not opening my womb because He hasn’t heard my cry? Does it mean He doesn’t care? Is there something in my life that still needs to change? Is there some unconfessed sin?
“The righteous cry, and יהוה heareth,
And delivereth them out of all their troubles.”
Psalm 34:17
Yah’s timing is perfect, and He always hears His children cry (Psalm 34:17). If it’s His will, for my husband and I to have children, it will be done. When it happens, Yah will surely get all the praise. But this week I started to consider the fact that just because Yah told Adam and Eve to be fruitful and multiply, doesn’t mean that is His plan for me personally.
Maybe Yah hasn’t given me children yet because he wants me to be free to write more songs to comfort his children before having to comfort my own. Maybe He wants me to finally finish the next album before I get even MORE distracted, and it doesn’t ever happen at all. Maybe Yahuah just wants me to be faithful in the few things He already gave me before He gives me more (Matthew 25:23). I pray Yah continues to mold my heart and allows me to fully submit to His will. The truth is, making music is still being fruitful, even if it’s not in the physical realm.
“His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and trustworthy servant. You were trustworthy over a little, I shall set you over much. Enter into the joy of your master.’ ”’
Matthew 25:23
Have you considered how Yah’s plan might look different for you than what you expected? If you’re struggling with the same issue as I am, I know a lot of people do, and you’re not a musician or you don’t know your gift, there are still other ways for you to be fruitful. Maybe you can foster a child, or consider adoption. Maybe you can become a Big Brother/Big Sister, or just support the children in your extended family or friend group. Whether you’re a musician, teacher, doctor, lawyer, trash man, or tax man, Yah has a purpose for you life. He’s never going to leave you alone. He wants you to reason with Him so everything can be sorted out and settled. But we have to humble ourselves to hear His guiding voice.
‘Come now, and let us reason together, saith יהוה : though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. ‘
Isaiah 1:18
Instead of making a scripture meditation this week, as I mentioned, I wrote a new song for you 🙂 The new song is called “Never Alone” and it’s based on a several different scriptures. Hebrews 13:5-6, Psalm 139:9-10, Deuteronomy 31:8, and Isaiah 1:18. They all came up in my personal scripture reading time, and praise Yah, a song came out of it! Yah willing I’ll still have time to make scripture meditation videos this weekend. I want to try some shorts. Subscribe to the scripture meditation channel for that. For now, I just want to share this new music with you. I know there’s someone out there who needs to hear it.
‘ If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me. ‘
Psalm 139:9-10

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

In 1996 my daddy was doing repairs on the house until he passed away a year later, so my mother was left with the task of finding resources to finish the home repairs. So I did some research and found out the City of New Orleans and Hibernia Bank offered a grant program for homeowner repairs. The City of New Orleans offered $45,000 in grant money and Hibernia Bank matched the offer with $45,000. My mother applied and she was approved. The contractors came out to assess the house and property and they began working in 1998. Unfortunately two months later the program was cancelled by the City of New Orleans because the contractors were using substandard materials to do the repairs. My mother was so disappointed. However, Yahuwah was in the plans. Fast-forward 7 years later to August 29, 2005 when the City of New Orleans was devastated by Hurricane Katrina and my parent’s house was destroyed filled with six feet of water. Yahuwah knew the storm was coming so he cancelled the home repair program. My mother was paid for her house and her property. Catholic Charities also offered her $110,000 to rebuild her house, but she would have to live there 5 years before relocating if she chose to. We were evacuated to Austin, Texas which would become our new home, but it wasn’t where my mother wanted to be at that time, making transitions to a new place at 81 years old. Yahuwah worked it all out for our good and for his glory. HalaluYah!🙌
That’s an amazing story Kim!!’ Thank you sooo much for sharing your testimony. It’s true Yahuah is always on time. His time!! To Him be all the glory, power, and praise 😁🙌🏾❤️
Praise Yah… Whoever believes in Him is never alone!
Praise Yah! He’s so good! HallaluYah, we’re never alone 😌
So happy to see you singing this beautiful song and that you are happy ! I hope all your prayers come true.
Thank you Patricia 😌 so good to hear from you 🤗 I hope you’re well too!! Blessings ❤️
Shalom Hadarah
I just want to share my story of unanswered prayer and hope it may help you in some way.
For 30 odd years I prayed to leave my town but something always stopped my husband and I from ever leaving. I eventually gave up on the idea that we would ever leave. So we resigned to the fact that we would retire where we were. My husband and I bought a block of land to build a new house. However we changed our minds and ended up renovating our home instead. We loved the renovations and put the land up for sale. It never sold. In the meantime lots of things happened and the desire to move came back stronger than ever. We had to sell the land in order for a relocation to ever be possible. Years went by and no sale, not even the slightest interest was shown. The land had glorious views. I couldn’t understand it. Every week on every Sabbath I would spend time up on a hill overlooking our land and praying to Yahuah for a buyer to come along and the opportunity to sell up and relocate near our daughter. No answer. It was the only prayer He was silent on. I wanted to be closer to our daughter and grandchildren. One day, I stopped asking my usual prayer and asked Him in a non accusatory way why He wasn’t answering me this one prayer. No answer. So my mind searched for any hidden sin. I suddenly remembered a broken vow I had made many years earlier but I never made the connection or realised the Father brought this to my mind. I reflected on my sin for awhile just talking to Him about it and acknowledged that I shouldn’t have broken that vow. I repented. After much thought and reflection I decided to renew this old vow. I didn’t do it to get something in return. I wanted to do the right thing and make it extra special as an act of love for Him. It was a big gift and sacrifice on my part as well as making good on an old promise. I wanted to give Him a special gift – something costly to me. Something from my heart. It felt good to give instead of, in my case, always asking and focusing on my needs. After that prayer, I went my way feeling lighter and happier and never gave the prayer or vow another thought.
A week later upon visiting my daughter (the one I wanted to move closer to), I get a phone call from a real estate agent. We had a buyer for the land! He wanted me to sign some papers. After years of no interest whatsoever, I get a buyer. I was ecstatic and completely blown away. My mind went to my prayer to Yahuah on the hill the Sabbath before. Amazing! He was letting me know He accepted my sacrifice and was answering my prayer at last! HalaluYah! I don’t know if He was answering my prayer because I repented of a broken vow and did the right thing by renewing my vow or because the vow I made was so costly to me and one that was selfless and straight from the heart or both? I can’t tell you how many years I waited for answer to this prayer. Hadarah you may not have anything you need to repent of like I did but instead of focussing on this one thing so dear to your heart and without doubt a totally reasonable request, think of something really special you can do for Him outside of your music. Don’t give to receive but just mediate on bringing something very special to Him as an offering. To bring an offering to the One you adore not only touches His heart but brings you joy and peace as well. Our Heavenly Father loves good gifts too, especially gifts of love from His children. We often neglect this aspect of our relationship with Him thinking we have nothing to offer. Anyway, that’s my story. I absolutely believe Yahuah responded to my prayer that day and to my offering because it was sacrificial and from the heart. He didn’t have to gift me in return but that is how wonderful and loving He is. I hope this helps in some way. xo
Shalom sister Gail 😌 that’s a beautiful testimony ❤️ thank you so much for sharing 🤗 I will take what you said to Yahuah in prayer for sure. May His will be done in all our lives.
Good morning Hadarah, such a beautiful song again, I love your music! I gonna pray for your wish for a child! I can imagine it is not easy, but indeed as you said, let everything be His will. May YaHuWaH bless you and your family! ❤️ Shabbat Shalom, tonight. 😍
Good morning sis! I’m so glad you’re enjoying the music ❤️ thanks for your prayers 🤗 May Yah help us all to submit to His will and hear His voice 😌 have a beautiful Shabbat! Yah bless and keep you and your family ❤️
Thank you for this sharing on such a personal level, Hadarah and for the lovely song. Not only did Yah remember Hannah with the birth of Samuel in I Sam. 2, but he also gave her three more sons and two daughters! I’m praying that one day you’ll be inspired to create a song based off of Hannah’s prayer for a son and based on her prayer of Thanksgiving after Yah answered her prayer, too..:)
Shalom April, thank you for mentioning that scripture and prayer 😌 let’s see what Yahuah does. May His will be done.
Halal YAH, I’m never alone!🤲🏾💜
Halal YAH 😌❤️ He is so good!
Praise YAH for unanswered prayers. He knows what is best for me, painful though they be. I can still say “Praise YAH I am never alone”. In all things I give thanks for this is the will of YAH concerning me.
Thank you for this beautiful melody, it gives me comfort. May you be blessed and comforted as you wait on YAHUAH.
HalaluYah 😌 May His will be done in all our lives!
