He knows the end from the beginning

God declared the end from the beginning (Isaiah 46:10). Israel’s history was predicted from her inception. At Sinai God told Moses that the people would rebel and be exiled. He also told him that Israel would eventually come to her senses, confess her sin and return to him. God will remember the ancient covenant and will restore His people (Lev 26:40-46). We are seeing the regathering and restoration begin in our day (Ezek 37:11, 12, 23). God has not given up on Israel. They have been partially hardened until the fullness of the Gentiles comes in (Rom 11:25). Even so, Lord, bring in the Gentiles and restore your people, Israel!
