The Green Ball in the Vineyard

“My beloved has a vineyard on a fertile hill.” — Isaiah 5:1

This morning, while walking through the vineyard, I found a green Dunlop tennis ball marked with the number 3. At first it seemed ordinary, yet in my spirit I felt Yahuah whisper that even in small things, He hides His messages of life.

The ball — made to bounce back — spoke of resilience. It reminded me that life often serves challenges across our path, but the key is to keep my eyes fixed, to return with strength, and to remain steady in the rhythm of grace.

“Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one receives the prize?So run that you may obtain it.” — 1 Corinthians 9:24

Its green color shone with the promise of new life and renewal — a reminder that the season ahead is one of growth and fruitfulness, like the green vines surrounding me.

“He makes me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside still waters.He restores my soul.” — Psalm 23:2–3

The number 3 marked on it brought to mind resurrection and divine completion — Yahushua rising on the third day, victory sealed, and life renewed. It was as if Abba whispered, “What has seemed dormant will rise again.”

“After two days He will revive us; on the third day He will raise us up,that we may live before Him.” — Hosea 6:2

Then I noticed the word Dunlop — meaning “fort at the bend.” I sensed I’m walking through a turning point, yet He remains my fortress, my steady refuge in change.The path may curve, but I am held within His stronghold of love.

“Yahuah is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer; my Elohim, my rock, in whom I take refuge.” — Psalm 18:2

And so, there in the vineyard — the place of pruning, pressing, and fruitfulness — Abba spoke softly through a simple green ball: “Stay in the game. Keep your eyes fixed on Me. The season is turning, and new life is sprouting. I am your fortress at every bend, and My resurrection power is making all things new.”

“I am the vine; you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in Him, bears much fruit.” — John 15:5

🕊️ Prayer

Abba Yahuah, thank You for speaking through the small things. Help me to stay focused and resilient, even in the bends of life. Let Your resurrection power rise within me, and let my life bear fruit that brings You glory. You are my fortress and my strength — and I will keep my eyes on You. In Yahushua’s Name, HalleluYAH

Shalom,
