Behold I am Making A New Thing

The meaning of Isaiah 43:19 is rich with encouragement for rough times. This Scripture ( I am doing a new thing in the Bible) helps us to understand the Most High heart towards us, even when we are stubborn, stupid, and wayward. God is always in the business of starting over. In this verse, he tells his people that after their release from Babylonian captivity, He would do a “new thing”.

This verse is addressed to people who were living in sin and refused to turn. In one sweep, Isaiah delivered terrible news but also a message of hope. It is the wonderful part of God’s promise that is recorded in Isaiah 43:19.
