I will make a pathway through the wilderness.
    I will create rivers in the dry wasteland.

NEW

1. God is always at work – He is not limited to past miracles; He continues to do new and powerful things in our lives.
2. Let go of the past – Don’t be stuck in old experiences, hurts, or successes. God’s future is greater!
3. Be spiritually aware – Many fail to see what God is doing because they are looking backward instead of forward.
4. God makes a way where there is none – Just as He made a path through the Red Sea, He provides new paths and provisions in our spiritual deserts.

Isaiah 43:18-19 is a powerful promise of hope, renewal, and transformation. Though Israel had experienced God’s power in the past, He was not finished—something even greater was coming. This passage ultimately points to Jesus Christ, who provides the ultimate deliverance and renewal for all who believe in Him.

God is always doing a new thing—are you ready to perceive it?
