The lord is not done with Israel!
Isaiah 30:18–30 KJV
18 And therefore will the Lord wait, that he may be gracious unto you, and therefore will he be exalted, that he may have mercy upon you: for the Lord is a God of judgment: blessed are all they that wait for him.
19 For the people shall dwell in Zion at Jerusalem: thou shalt weep no more: he will be very gracious unto thee at the voice of thy cry; when he shall hear it, he will answer thee.
Israel took control of Jerusalem again in 1967 after an almost two- thousand-year wait. Verses 19–24 of Isaiah chapter 30 describe Israel as living in hard times today. However, God has restored their wintertime rains and snows because Israel got rid of their idols. The later rains started in approximately 1982. God is also giving their leadership guidance. Unfortunately, Israel has not turned back to God. Think about it. This Bible passage was written to and for our generation! How could Isaiah
have known that the climate would change so Israel could have grain for their animals? How could Isaiah have known that Israel would destroy their gold and silver idols? He knows because God told Isaiah. Fulfilled Bible prophecy proves the Bible is the Word of God!
Israel today
20 And though the Lord give you the bread of adversity, and the water of affliction, yet shall not thy teachers be removed into a corner any more, but thine eyes shall see thy teachers:
21 And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.
22 Ye shall defile also the covering of thy graven images of silver, and the ornament of thy molten images of gold: thou shalt cast them away as a menstruous cloth; thou shalt say unto it, Get thee hence.
23 Then shall he give the rain of thy seed, that thou shalt sow the ground withal; and bread of the increase of the earth, and it shall be fat and plenteous: in that day shall thy cattle feed in large pastures.
24 The oxen likewise and the young asses that ear the ground shall eat clean provender, which hath been winnowed with the shovel and with the fan.
Israel in the tribulation period
Read verses 25 and 26 of Isaiah 30; they describe the moon shining as bright as our sun today, and the sun becoming seven times stronger than it is right now. These phenomena will happen after the Lord sends the nuclear war and the ozone layer burns off all the way around the world.
25 And there shall be upon every high mountain, and upon every high hill, rivers and streams of waters in the day of the great slaughter, when the towers fall.
26 Moreover the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of seven days, in the day that the Lord bindeth up the breach of his people, and healeth the stroke of their wound.
27 Behold, the name of the Lord cometh from far, burning with his anger, and the burden thereof is heavy: his lips are full of indignation, and his tongue as a devouring fire:
28 And his breath, as an overflowing stream, shall reach to the midst of the neck, to sift the nations with the sieve of vanity: and there shall be a bridle in the jaws of the people, causing them to err.
29 Ye shall have a song, as in the night when a holy solemnity is kept; and gladness of heart, as when one goeth with a pipe to come into the mountain of the Lord, to the mighty One of Israel.
30 And the Lord shall cause his glorious voice to be heard, and shall shew the lighting down of his arm, with the indignation of his anger, and with the flame of a devouring fire, with scattering, and tempest, and hailstones.
—Isaiah 30:18–30 KJV
God has given Israel another chance to get right. Most continue to reject Jesus as their Messiah. They have turned from righteousness, according to Isaiah, and God is about to judge Israel. Zephaniah 1:14–2:3 says the judgment “is near, it is near, and hasteth greatly” when you see Israel the nation gathered.
