OUR FATHER WHO WILL HAVE COMPASSION ON HIS PEOPLE

The book of Isaiah chapter 14 verses 1 - 2 says this;

The Lord will have compassion on Jacob; once again he will choose Israel and will settle them in their own land. Foreigners will join them and unite with the descendants of Jacob.

Nations will take them and bring them to their own place. And Israel will take possession of the nations and make them male and female servants in the Lord’s land.

They will make captives of their captors and rule over their oppressors.

This passage speaks of the great reversal of circumstance that will occur to the Lord's people when He sees them in their distress and has compassion on them. 

The Lord, in mercy for His people, chooses them for Himself anew and restores them to their own land.

Here, a great prophecy is revealed that declares that the foreigners ( or gentiles ) will join the descendants of Israel and become one with them.

In this united bond, the people of God will gain ownership over all the nations and put all the people of the  world into their employ. And those who held God's people in captivity, will themselves be ruled over and held in captivity 


Amen.
