Prophecy Fulfilled for Egypt
Biblical
prophecy is still coming true today. Isaiah 19 has some very specific
prophecies regarding Egypt with some very specific things to look out for.
It
is very interesting indeed.
It
is happening today. This is the Bible prophecy – compare it to events today and
see if it’s not right on the nail.
Isaiah 19 The burden against
Egypt.
Behold, the Lord rides
on a swift cloud, And will come into Egypt; The idols of Egypt will totter at
His presence, And the heart of Egypt will melt in its midst.
2 “I will set Egyptians against
Egyptians; Everyone will fight against his brother, And everyone against his
neighbour, City against city, kingdom against kingdom.
3 The spirit of Egypt will fail in its
midst; I will destroy their counsel, And they will consult the idols and the
charmers, The mediums and the sorcerers. 4 And the Egyptians I will give Into the hand of a
cruel master, And a fierce king will rule over them,” Says the Lord, the Lord of hosts.
5 The waters will fail from the sea, And
the river will be wasted and dried up. 6 The rivers will turn foul; The brooks of defense will
be emptied and dried up; The reeds and rushes will wither. 7 The papyrus reeds by the
River, by the mouth of the River, And everything sown by the River, Will
wither, be driven away, and be no more. 8 The fishermen also will mourn; All those will lament
who cast hooks into the River, And they will languish who spread nets on the
waters.
9 Moreover those who work in fine flax And
those who weave fine fabric will be ashamed; 10 And its foundations will be broken. All who make
wages will be troubled of soul.
11 Surely the princes of Zoan are fools;
Pharaoh’s wise counselors give foolish counsel. How do you say to Pharaoh,
“I am the son of the wise, The son of ancient kings?” 12 Where are they?
Where are your wise men? Let them tell you now, And let them know what
the Lord of hosts has
purposed against Egypt. 13 The
princes of Zoan have become fools; The princes of Noph are deceived; They
have also deluded Egypt, Those who are the mainstay of its tribes.
14 The Lord has mingled a perverse spirit in her midst; And
they have caused Egypt to err in all her work, As a drunken man staggers in his
vomit. 15 Neither
will there be any work for Egypt, Which the head or tail, Palm
branch or bulrush, may do.
16 In that day Egypt will be like women,
and will be afraid and fear because of the waving of the hand of the Lord of hosts, which He waves over
it. 17 And
the land of Judah will be a terror to Egypt; everyone who makes mention of it
will be afraid in himself, because of the counsel of the Lord of hosts which He has
determined against it.
Egypt, Assyria, and Israel Blessed
18 In that day five cities in the land of
Egypt will speak the language of Canaan and swear by the Lord of hosts; one will be called
the City of Destruction.
19 In that day there will be an altar to
the Lord in the midst of
the land of Egypt, and a pillar to
the Lord at its
border. 20 And
it will be for a sign and for a witness to the Lord of hosts in the land of Egypt; for they will cry
to the Lord because of
the oppressors, and He will send them a Saviour and a Mighty One, and He will
deliver them.
21 Then the Lord will be known to Egypt, and the Egyptians will
know the Lord in that
day, and will make sacrifice and offering; yes, they will make a vow to
the Lord and
perform it.
22 And the Lord will strike Egypt, He will strike and heal it; they
will return to the Lord, and
He will be entreated by them and heal them.
23 In that day there will be a highway
from Egypt to Assyria, and the Assyrian will come into Egypt and the Egyptian
into Assyria, and the Egyptians will serve with the Assyrians. 24 In that day Israel will
be one of three with Egypt and Assyria—a blessing in the midst of the
land, 25 whom
the Lord of hosts shall
bless, saying, “Blessed is Egypt My people, and Assyria the work
of My hands, and Israel My inheritance.”
