“The wilderness and the solitary place shall be glad for them; and the desert shall rejoice, and blossom as the rose. It shall blossom abundantly, and rejoice even with joy and singing: the glory of Lebanon shall be given unto it, the excellency of Carmel and Sharon, they shall see the glory of the LORD, and the excellency of our God.”
Isaiah 35:1-2 KJV
Isaiah prophesied, “The wilderness and dry land will be joyously glad! The desert will blossom like a rose and rejoice! Every dry and barren place will burst forth with abundant blossoms, dancing and spinning with delight! Lebanon’s lush splendor covers it, the magnificent beauty of Carmel and Sharon. My people will see the awesome glory of Yahweh, the beautiful grandeur of our God.” This is a picture of the last-days Church rising up out of the wilderness to shine in all the radiance of its glory. It is a picture of Eden restored as the Kingdom realm of God brings hope to the weak and struggling. The “Sacred Way” is the way of life in Christ as we live in His power and virtue. Blossoming it will blossom as it breaks forth and blooms as God’s people in the last days will spread wings and fly! Once confined in the wilderness, they will break forth and blossom with beauty and glory as saints of the Most High, with delight and dancing. Carmel is a mountain range near Israel’s Meditteranean coast and means “fruitful, plentiful orchard or vineyard”. Sharon is a coastal plain in Israel and means “open, straight, pleasant and prosperous”. Through our faith, the mighty power of God constantly guards us until our full salvation is ready to be revealed in the last days. Thank You, God, for the last-days Church, the true Church, the Body of Christ. Amen!
