Isaiah 32:15-17
Until the Spirit is poured upon us from on high, And the wilderness becomes a fruitful field, And the fruitful field is counted as a forest. 16 Then justice will dwell in the wilderness, And righteousness remain in the fruitful field. 17 The work of righteousness will be peace, And the effect of righteousness, quietness and assurance forever.
Until the Spirit is poured upon us from on high, And the wilderness becomes a fruitful field, And the fruitful field is counted as a forest. 16 Then justice will dwell in the wilderness, And righteousness remain in the fruitful field. 17 The work of righteousness will be peace, And the effect of righteousness, quietness and assurance forever.
When God came to dwell in man at Pentecost, righteousness began to be possible. For without a new creation, a new birth, it was not possible to be fruitful for Him. Without God Himself living in us, we could never know His justice, peace, or assurance. Praise be to God the Father who did all this by His Son so He could reside in us as Spirit!
