And the tree of the field shall yield her fruit, and the earth shall yield her increase, and they shall be safe in their land, and shall know that I am the LORD, when I have broken the bands of their yoke, and delivered them out of the hand of those that served themselves of them.
The trees will be loaded with fruit, the ground will produce amazing harvests, and my people will feel completely secure in their own land. They'll finally understand that I really am the LORD when I break the chains that have been holding them back and rescue them from everyone who's been taking advantage of them.
God's promising a comeback story, freedom, abundance, and finally knowing you're truly safe.
