Introduction.
I believe Isaiah 43:19 is a prophetic Word for 2026. God is doing a new thing in the lives of His people now and throughout this year. For many, it has already begun. When I say “a new thing,” I’m referring to Him providing for you in ways in both normal and miraculous ways, showing Himself strong on your behalf as the Lord God mighty in Battle, the manifestation of promises He made to you that you forgot or thought He forgot about and more. Jesus promised in Matthew 28:20 that He would be with us always even to the end of the world. Regardless of what happens, good or bad, God is always with us. And He’s going to reveal that to you in this year in new ways you’ve never experienced before – be in expectation! We’ll review a lot of Scriptures in this Blog, but our primary concentration is on Isaiah 43:19.
19 Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert. Isaiah 43:19 NKJV
When I sang “I Will Do A New Thing” song by Audrey Byrd (based on Isaiah 43:19) the morning of December 30, 2025, I felt hope, strength and reassurance. It was like the Holy Spirit was saying, “All is okay.” Things are going to be alright. The link to this song is here:
I know the world is experiencing unprecedented amounts of floods, tornados, earthquakes and many kinds of disasters like volcano eruptions and more. God warned us of these things in the Bible. See the birthing pain Bible verses below.
The Birthing Pains Explained.
The phrase “birthing pains” is synonymous with the “beginning of sorrows.” Both terms denote the times and seasons of events that will precede the Tribulation period. Jesus did not want His people to be blindsided so He warned us of things to comes so that we would know when the time of our departure would be near when Jesus comes back for us in the Rapture.
4 And Jesus answered and said to them: “Take heed that no one deceives you. 5 For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many. 6 And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows. Matthew 24:4 to 8 NKJV
Like a woman when she is in travail because the time of her baby’s birth is about to happen, likewise the earth will experience tremendous pains before catching away of the Body of Christ.
1 But concerning the times and the seasons, brethren, you have no need that I should write to you. 2 For you yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night. 3 For when they say, “Peace and safety!” then sudden destruction comes upon them, as labor pains upon a pregnant woman. And they shall not escape. 4 But you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief. 5 You are all sons of light and sons of the day. We are not of the night nor of darkness. 6 Therefore let us not sleep, as others do, but let us watch and be sober. 7 For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk are drunk at night. 8 But let us who are of the day be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and as a helmet the hope of salvation.
9 For God did not appoint us to wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, 10 who died for us, that whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with Him.
11 Therefore comfort each other and edify one another, just as you also are doing. 1 Thessalonians 5:1 to 11 NKJV
For additional Scriptures on Birthing Pains, see Mark 13:8, John 16:21 and Galatians 4:19.
What is God Saying Through Isaiah 43:19?
This is the focus Scripture for this part of the Blog: Isaiah 43:19. I added a couple additional verses because remember, for clarity and understanding, it’s important to go to the verse before and the verse after. So here is Isaiah 43:18 to 20 KJV.
18 Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old.
19 Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.
20 The beast of the field shall honour me, the jackals and the ostriches: because I give waters in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my chosen. Isaiah 43:18 to 20 KJV
Key Points for Year 2026.
Notice that God uses the word “wilderness.” Wilderness denotes an empty wasteland or a place where vegetation and water is lacking. Yet God says He will provide water. This is what I believe God is saying to us now and for this new year – 2026.
1. Don’t focus on past mistakes, failures and things that left you bewildered and confused. Just forget it – whether it was something you did or what others did. Forgive, release, and let it go. Perhaps you’re somewhat baffled about a promise God made you. You might be thinking “it’s been 10, 20 or 30 years and it hasn’t come to pass yet!” Put that on the shelf for a minute and go back to the last thing God told you to do that isn’t yet done. See Matthew 6:14 and Philippians 3:13, 14.
I heard someone say a long time ago, “If you’re willing to wait on God forever, you won’t have to wait very long.” God is doing a work on the inside of us. He wants us to trust Him regardless of what has or hasn’t happened. Trust is the main idea here. God will reveal the wisdom and hidden revelation in due season. See Psalm 138:8 and Psalm 37:3, 4.
2. God is the source of our provision. Perhaps, in your mind, there are some things that look a little bleak about 2026, but keep your eyes on the prize. God will keep you in perfect peace in the midst of all circumstances if you keep your mind on Him. See Philippians 3:14 and Isaiah 26:3.
3. Give God praise. He’s going to meet all your needs. There are numerous times when God provided, conquered armies, won battles, healed miraculously and His people praised Him (some before and others praised Him after the victory). I want to admonish you to praise God before and after the victory. I use this space to admonish you to praise Him in advance. See 1 Samuel 1:9 to 20, 2 Chronicles 2:21, 22 and Acts 4:23 to 31.
4. You are part of God’s chosen people and He takes care of His own. See Deuteronomy 14:2, Isaiah 43:20, 21 and 1 Peter 2:9.
Conclusion.
God loves you with an everlasting love and He will provide for you in both natural and supernatural ways. He is doing a new thing in you. Remember to spend time in His presence through prayer, worship, and the Word. Fellowship whenever you can with strong, loving Believers who will build you up in the faith. God will with you always and He will strengthen and undergird you for whatever you may face. Lift your eyes unto the hills from whence cometh your help. Your help cometh from the Lord who made heaven and earth. See Psalm 121:1, 2.
