Behold, I will bring them from the north country, and gather them from the ends of the earth, among them the blind and the lame, the woman with child and the one who labors with child, together; a great throng shall return there.  Jeremiah 31.8

Isaiah foresaw the Diaspora that the Israelites would suffer, when they would be scattered throughout the world for having rejected the Messiah, who came to solve their problems. Because the Jews rejected Jesus, we Gentiles were saved (Romans 11.11-15). Sometime later, Jeremiah declared that the day will come when the movement will be reversed – the people of Israel will be brought from the land of the North.

Today, many are on their way home, returning from all nations to their biblical origins. It’s the revival! They return to Israel with the most diverse experiences, yet they have not denied their origin or their God. The fig tree is already bearing its buds (Mark 13.28,29), and the day is coming. The fruits of the promise will fill the world with the knowledge of Jesus, the promised Messiah. We already see among the remnant of the patriarchs Abraham, Isaac and Jacob the beginning of the acceptance of Jesus – rejected by the Jerusalem elite more than two thousand years ago – as the true Vine (John 15.1).

Those who come from different cultures from the land of the North bring the desire to know the Truth and thus come to love God from their heart. It is beautiful to see many receive the baptism in the Holy Spirit, the seal of promise (Ephesians 1.13). With this, the God of wonders has turned the solitary fugitive Jacob into a flock that will fill the Earth as many as the sand of the sea. Whoever receives the fullness of the Spirit becomes king and priest to the Lord of the harvest (Revelation 5.10).

Those who experience the new birth receive the power to turn the lost into sons and servants of the heavenly Father. Jehovah, the Lord of lords and holiness, overpowers all “gods”, proving there is only one God, one Way, and one people called by His Name. The Bible prophecies are beginning to be fulfilled, and the time to prepare for what is to come is today. They are being gathered from the ends of the Earth. The glory belongs to Jesus’!

Those who were completely blind to the Truth are being set free by it, as their eyes light up. One day in Amman, the capital of Jordan, I cried as I saw Arabs singing that Jesus was the Savior. Those who could not see the Truth are now also part of the redeemed. It is Ishmael coming to worship together with Jacob, just like at the burial of Abraham in the cave of Machpelah (Genesis 25.9). Jesus’ death has united them!

Disabled people are no longer forbidden to enter the temple of the Lord to worship God in spirit and in truth. Pregnant women with revelation will be present along with those in childbirth. The Word will be confirmed in the smallest and greatest details. Our generation will see the Truth being known by all. Even those who were repulsive to what God does will become true worshipers and serve Him.

In Christ, there is an opposite movement to that of the tower of Babel, when people spoke another language; now they speak the same language: the Truth. There is no difference, nor discriminated against or rejected. The Lord’s work is to turn the two peoples into one (Ephesians 2:14-16).

In Christ, with love,
