YHVH is restoring to His people the two-fold covenant revealed from Genesis to Revelation. His people are learning His Law to walk in obedience to His ways, seeking Him with a whole heart, and so they will prosper. As the truth of God’s righteous judgments are restored to His people, godly sorrow will wash over them, and true repentance will characterize them, and many will be saved. His mercy will cover over their former transgressions, and He will turn the earned curse into a blessing for them, because of His great love for them. He will not destroy His people or cast them from His presence, but He will restore His people and plant them in their land, never to be uprooted again. Their praise and songs of thanksgiving will resound because of His goodness, as the tabernacle of David – Spirit-filled worship in all inspired songs, music, and praise – is repaired, raised up, and rebuilt. From thenceforward the saved of YHVH will walk in His ways with a clean heart and a steadfast spirit. Their ear will be turned to Torah, and justice will run down like water, and righteousness like a mighty stream. And He will not be silent, but He will reveal His secret counsel, and the knowledge of YHVH will cover the earth as waters cover the seas.
