“Let mine outcasts dwell with thee, Moab; be thou a covert to them from the face of the spoiler: for the extortioner is at an end, the spoiler ceaseth, the oppressors are consumed out of the land. And in mercy shall the throne be established: and he shall sit upon it in truth in the tabernacle of David, judging, and seeking judgment, and hasting righteousness.”
Isaiah 16:4-5 KJV
Isaiah continues to prophecy to allow the Moabite fugitives to stay with Judah and to be a shelter for them from the destroyer. One day the oppressor will be no more. The destroyer will come to an end, and the tyrant will vanish from the land. Then a government of unfailing love will be established, with a faithful King in the tabernacle of David, passionate for justice and swift to do what is right. In the days of King David, he established a tabernacle that had singers and musicians who ministered to the Lord night and day. Today in the new covenant, prayer is in the spirit of David’s tabernacle. This means that there is night and day prayer and worship. The promise of the restoration of the tabernacle of David refers to the Kingdom of God’s governmental restoration of David’s international rule as part of the restoration of national Israel in the millennial kingdom. Let’s be part of the day and night prayer and worship to usher in the Kingdom of God on earth as it is in heaven. Amen!
