Blessings of The Future Kingdom

“Arise, Jerusalem! Let your light shine for all to see.

For the glory of the LORD rises to shine on you.

Darkness as black as night covers all the nations of the earth,

but the glory of the LORD rises and appears over you.

“Look and see, for everyone is coming home!

Your sons are coming from distant lands;

your little daughters will be carried home.

“And what do I see flying like clouds to Israel,

like doves to their nests?

They are ships from the ends of the earth,

from lands that trust in me,

led by the great ships of Tarshish.

They are bringing the people of Israel home from far away

carrying their silver and gold.

…You will know at last that I, the LORD,

am your Savior and your Redeemer,

the Mighty One of Israel.

“No longer will you need the sun to shine by day,

nor the moon to give its light by night,

for the LORD your God will be your everlasting light,

and your God will be your glory.

Your sun will never set;

your moon will not go down.

For the LORD will be your everlasting light.

Your days of mourning will come to an end.

Isaiah 60:1-4, 8-9, 16, 19-20
