Contrast Between Light and Dark
Arise,
shine; for your light has come! And the glory of The Lord is risen
upon you. For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and deep
darkness the people; but the Lord will arise over you, and his glory
will be seen upon you. Then you shall see and become radiant, and your
heart shall swell with joy; because the abundance of the sea shall be
turned to you, the wealth of the Gentiles shall come to you. The
multitudes of camels shall cover your land, the dromedaries of Midian
and Ephah; all those from Sheba shall come; They shall bring gold and
incense, And they shall proclaim the praises of the Lord. (Is. 60:1-2, 5-6)
In contrast to the season of glory for those who
prepare and hear, it will be a season of darkness or, as some
translations say, “gloom” for those unprepared. The good news is that we
are not created for darkness and gloom, but for glory! In this
passage, the camels brought wealth in caravans. So for us as believers,
this means the camels, or their modern-day equivalents, are coming with
provision!
This will also be connected with the
transference of wealth on international levels. For those who watch and
listen, they will hear the voice of the Lord for huge financial
blessings. The Joseph generation is going to emerge in this season as
never before.
