Back In Isaiah 6 God spoke of the people being ever seeing but never perceiving (Is 6:9-10). Now we see this state of affairs coming to an end. Those who have eyes but are blind will be lead out.
The nations could not, and cannot, predict what God will do. Man is not in control of the future, no matter how hard he tries. All of us do well to remember this. We seek to be in control, but this is only a recipe for frustration, for we are men and not God. We do not have the capacity to be in total control. There are areas of life that we have responsibility for, and we must take up responsibility for that, but for the rest we can and must trust the Lord.
The Lord is God, and there is no one and no thing remotely like Him, and we are His witnesses. This means both that we tell others, and that God will act in our lives in ways which demonstrate His sovereignty over all.
