Much of the “oracle concerning Egypt” (Isaiah 19:1) speaks of the negative aspects which are associated with the nation of Egypt. Nevertheless, there is a Word of hope at the end of this oracle (Isaiah 19:18-25). In 2 Corinthians 10:15-16,
Paul expresses the hope that “our area of activity among you will
greatly expand, so that we can preach the Gospel in the regions beyond
you.” It is so important that we do not write people off, that we do not
give up hope, that we continue to believe that God can turn things
around for His glory and for the salvation of men and women. The story
which is told in Psalm 106:16-29 is one which makes us wonder, ‘Can this situation be turned around? Is there any hope?’ In Psalm 106:30-31, we catch a glimpse of hope, it is hope “for endless generations to come.”
