“Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.”Isaiah 43:19 (KJV)
What Isaiah 43:19 means
Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness. God specializes in making roads where there are none and rivers in dry places. Whatever wilderness you are in, this verse insists your story is not stuck; God is capable of springing something new right out of the barren ground.
