Isaiah 59 – After Christ Comes

 

When Christ comes it will be like the sun rising into midnight darkness. The nation Israel will reflect the glory light that will shine upon the entire earth. The church, in the meantime, has gone to be with Christ. Malachi 4:2 says that the Sun of righteousness will arise with healing wings. Darkness shall overcome the earth.

 

There is so much sin in this world that darkness surely covers the earth. When Christ comes, He will be the light, and He will come to Zion and bring the Gentiles from afar. This will be the greatest revival on earth, all will come to life and be resurrected to Christ Himself. All the people shall be gathered in Jerusalem. They will come by land, sea, and by air. Wise men not only from the east but from all over the world will bring gifts to Christ, they shall bring gold and incense. There will be no Myrrh as that was taken care of at Christ’s death.

 

The sacrifice of animals will be reinstated in the Millennium temple. In the future it is said that Russia will send the Jews back to Israel and will not extract payment from them but will give them gifts just as the Egyptians did when the Israelites fled from Egypt. The Lord has made it clear that the judgment on the nations will be based on their treatment of the Israelites. In the Millennium every knee will bow, even those who don’t want to bow will be forced to by public opinion.

 

When Satan comes at the end of the Millennium, then those who bowed unwillingly will gravitate towards him, which will be the last rebellion. After that everything will be made brand new.

 

God is going to start over, and we are all going to have a new nature. Jerusalem will become the center of the earth, and many blessings will come that day. All the treasures will be restored back to its temple. We won’t have need of the sun or moon as Christ will be our everlasting light. Human strength will be restored. There will be no need for wheelchairs or walkers. We will be strong in the Lord. What a glorious day that will be!
