Isaiah 26:11
LORD, when thy hand is lifted up, they will not see: but they shall see, and be ashamed for their envy at the people; yea, the fire of thine enemies shall devour them. LORD, when thy hand is lifted up, they will not see: but they shall see, and be ashamed for their envy at the people; yea, the fire of thine enemies shall devour them.
The lifted hand discloses the preparation God has made through free, saving grace. That preparation centers in pardon and the complete removal of sins. Through such forgiveness access is opened to the riches of God's glory.
