Another Deliverance
Isa 11:10 And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest shall be glorious.
In that day, when Jesus, the root of Jesse, returns to earth to be king. He shall stand as an ensign, a banner to be drawn to.
Song 2:4 He brought me to the banqueting house, and his banner over me was love.
Gentiles shall seek him and his rest is glorious.
Isa 60:2 For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.
Isa 60:3 And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising.
Isa 60:4 Lift up thine eyes round about, and see: all they gather themselves together, they come to thee: thy sons shall come from far, and thy daughters shall be nursed at thy side.
Mat 11:28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Mat 11:29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
Mat 11:30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.

Heb 3:9 When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years.

Heb 3:11 So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.)
Heb 3:12 Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God.
Isa 11:11 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea.

The first time was the deliverance from Egypt.
Rom 11:25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.
Rom 11:26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:
Mark 13:26 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.
Mark 13:27 And then shall he send his angels, and shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost part of heaven.
Messiah's kingdom
Isa 11:13 The envy also of Ephraim shall depart, and the adversaries of Judah shall be cut off: Ephraim shall not envy Judah, and Judah shall not vex Ephraim.
When Jesus is King in Jerusalem, there will be no more conflict between Israel and Judah. They will be one nation under the rule of Jesus.
Isa 11:14 But they shall fly upon the shoulders of the Philistines toward the west; they shall spoil them of the east together: they shall lay their hand upon Edom and Moab; and the children of Ammon shall obey them.
The traditional enemies would be punished. No evil shall stand before the Lord.
Isa 11:15 And the LORD shall utterly destroy the tongue of the Egyptian sea; and with his mighty wind shall he shake his hand over the river, and shall smite it in the seven streams, and make men go over dryshod.
The tongue, the Gulf of Suez shall be dried up and easily crossed. Their shoes will not even get wet or muddy.
Isa 11:16 And there shall be an highway for the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria; like as it was to Israel in the day that he came up out of the land of Egypt.
There will be no obstacles to the remnant people of God who come to the land of Israel. The final gathering will be when Jesus returns to earth with the saints in glorified bodies. We shall rule and reign with him as Kings and priests. There will be human beings who have trusted Jesus Christ as savior living in the nations. Because the devil shall be bound for a thousand years, Jesus shall bring peace on earth and keep the peace. After the thousand years, the devil is loosed on earth again. Those who were born and are alive on earth shall make a final choice; to follow Jesus or to folow the devil in rebellion. Because of the old Adamic sin nature, many will choose to rebel against God and follow the devil in rebellion and be destroyed. The LORD gives us a choice: life in Jesus or the lake of fire with the devil. Keep the faith and stay with Jesus for it will be heaven for you and for me.
