The Lord's Promise of Victory - Isaiah 43

"14 This is what the LORD says—your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel:"For your sakes I will send an army against Babylon, forcing the Babylonians* to flee in those ships they are so proud of.15 I am the LORD, your Holy One, Israel's Creator and King.16 I am the LORD, who opened a way through the waters, making a dry path through the sea.17 I called forth the mighty army of Egypt with all its chariots and horses.I drew them beneath the waves, and they drowned, their lives snuffed out like a smoldering candlewick.18 "But forget all that— it is nothing compared to what I am going to do.19 For I am about to do something new. See, I have already begun! Do you not see it?I will make a pathway through the wilderness. I will create rivers in the dry wasteland.20 The wild animals in the fields will thank me, the jackals and owls, too, for giving them water in the desert.Yes, I will make rivers in the dry wasteland so my chosen people can be refreshed.21 I have made Israel for myself, and they will someday honor me before the whole world.
