The Bible is the FOUNDATION for life.

 

The Prophet Isaiah reminds Israel that the nation would go through the floods and fires of adversity. God, however, promises to be with them and will personally call His Chosen People back to their own land (Jer. 7:7).

 

 ISAIAH 43:1-6

But now, thus says the LORD, who created you, O Jacob,
And He who formed you, O Israel:

Buchenwald Nazi concentration camp survivors arrive in Haifa, Israel, July 15, 1945 only to be arrested by the British.

“Fear not, for I have redeemed you;
I have called you by your name;
You are Mine.

 

When you pass through the waters, I will be with you;
And through the rivers, they shall not overflow you.
When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned,
Nor shall the flame scorch you.

For I am the LORD your God,
The Holy One of Israel, your Savior;
I gave Egypt for your ransom,
Ethiopia and Seba in your place.

 

Since you were precious in My sight,
You have been honored,
And I have loved you;
Therefore I will give men for you,
And people for your life.

Fear not, for I am with you;
I will bring your descendants from the east,
And gather you from the west;
I will say to the north, ‘Give them up!’

And to the south, ‘Do not keep them back!’
Bring My sons from afar,
And My daughters from the ends of the earth.
