One
of the greatest miracles of all History is unfolding quietly today,
nearly unnoticed by many believers. Our Lord is bringing the Jewish
people to Israel from the Land of the North, even the remotest parts
of the earth, and fulfilling numerous Old Testament prophecies.
Christian Believers who love Israel and her people must have a firm
grounding in these scriptures as a guide to our faith and action
on behalf of His chosen ones. In this context the following passages
have been assembled by EEF USA to reveal the Heart of God for this
day. May we each find His place for us in the great work of bringing
His sons from afar!

carry out all these commandments, if, instead, you reject My statues,

among the nations and will draw out a sword after you, as your

you, and you call them to mind in all nations where the Lord your
God has banished you, and you return to the Lord your God
and obey Him with all your heart and soul according to all that
I command you today, you and your sons, then the Lord your God
will restore you from captivity, and have compassion on you,
and will gather you again from all the peoples where the Lord your
God has scattered you. If your outcasts are at the ends of the earth,
from there the Lord your God will gather you, and from there
He will bring you back."
10.
Psalm 105:37....42-43 "Then He brought them out with silver

shout."

when He heard their cry, and He remembered His covenant for their

captors. Save us, O Lord our God, and gather us from among the
nations, to give thanks to Thy holy name, and glory in Thy praise."
12.

that the Lord will again recover the second time with His
hand the remnant of His people who will remain, from Assyria,

of the sea. And He will lift up a standard for the nations, and
will assemble the banished ones of Israel, and will gather the

there will be a highway from Assyria for the remnant of His people
who will be left, just as there was for Israel in the day that they
came up out of the land of Egypt."
14.
Isaiah 14:1-2 "When the Lord will have compassion on Jacob,

place, and the house of Israel will possess them as an inheritance
in the land of the Lord as male servants and female servants; and
they will take their captors captive, and will rule over their oppressors."
15.
Isaiah 27:12-13 "And it will come about in that day,
that the Lord will start His threshing from the flowing stream of

that day that a great trumpet will be blown; and those who were
perishing in the land of Assyria and who were scattered in
the land of Egypt will come and worship the Lord in the holy mountain
at Jerusalem."
16.

Isaiah 35:8-10 "And a highway will be there, a roadway, and
it will be called the Highway of Holiness. The unclean will not

will not wander on it. No lion will be there, nor will any vicious
beast go up on it, these will not be found there. But the redeemed
will walk there, and the ransomed of the Lord will return, and
come with joyful shouting to Zion, with everlasting joy upon
their heads. They will find gladness and joy, and sorrow and sighing
will flee away."
18.
Isaiah 40:1-5 "Comfort, O comfort My people,' says your God.
Speak kindly to Jerusalem; and call out to her, that her warfare
has ended, that her iniquity has been removed, that she has received
of the Lord's hand double for her sins. A voice is calling, clear
the way for the Lord in the wilderness; make smooth in the desert
a highway for our God. Let every valley be lifted up, and every
mountain and hill be made low, and let the rough ground become a
plain, and the rugged terrain a broad valley; then the glory of
the Lord will be revealed, and all flesh will see it together, for
the mouth of the Lord has spoken."
19.
Isaiah 41:8-11 "But you, Israel, My servant, Jacob whom I have
chosen, descendant of Abraham My friend, you whom I have taken from
the ends of the earth, and called from its remotest parts,
and said to you, 'you are my servant, I have chosen you and not
rejected you. Do not fear, for I am with you; Do not anxiously look
about you, for I am your god. I will strengthen you, surely I will
help you, Surely I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.'
Behold, all those who are angered at you will be ashamed and dishonored;
those who contend with you will be as nothing, and will perish."
20.
Isaiah 42:22 "But this is a people plundered and despoiled,

21.
Isaiah 43:1-2...5-6...8...13 "But now, thus says the Lord, your
Creator, O Jacob, and he who formed you, O Israel, 'Do not fear,
for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name; you are mine!
When you pass through the waters, I will be with you, and through
the rivers, they will not overflow you. When you walk through the
fire, you will not be scorched, nor will the flame burn you....Do
not fear, for I am with you; I will bring your offspring from
the east, and gather you from the west. I will say to the north,
Give them up! And to the south, 'Do not hold them back.' Bring My
sons from afar, and My daughters from the ends of the earth"..."Bring
out the people who are blind, even though they have eyes, and the
deaf, even though they have ears....Even from eternity I am He;
and there is none who can deliver out of My hand; I act and who
can reverse it?"
22.
Isaiah 44:3-5 "For I will pour out water on the thirsty land
and streams on the dry ground; I will pour out My Spirit on your
offspring, and My blessing on your descendants; and they will
spring up among the grass like poplars by streams of water.
This one will say, I am the Lord's; and that one will call on the
name of Jacob; and another will write on his hand, 'Belonging to
the Lord,' and will name Israel's name with honor."
23.
Isaiah 45: 2-6 "I will go before you and make the rough places
smooth; I will shatter the doors of bronze, and cut through their
iron bars. And I will give you the treasures of darkness, and
hidden wealth of secret places, in order that you may know that
it is I, the Lord, the God of Israel, who calls you by your name.
For the sake of Jacob My servant, and Israel My chosen one, I have
also called you by your name; I have given you a title of honor
though you have not known Me. I am the Lord, and there is no other;
besides Me there is no God. I will gird you, though you have not
known Me; that men may know from the rising to the setting of the
sun that there is no one besides Me. I am the Lord, and there is
no other."
24.
Isaiah 46: 3-4 "Listen to Me, O house of Jacob, and all the
remnant of the house of Israel, you who have been borne by Me
from birth, and have been carried from the womb; even to your old
age, I shall be the same, and even to your graying years I shall
bear you! I have done it, and I shall carry you; and I will bear
you, and I shall deliver you."
25.
Isaiah 49: 8-10...12-13...22-23a...24-26 "Thus says the Lord,
In a favorable time I have answered You, and in a day of salvation
I have helped You; and I will keep You and give You for a covenant
of the people, to restore the land, to make them inherit the desolate
heritages'; saying to those who are bound, 'Go forth', to those
who are in darkness, 'Show yourselves.' Along the roads they
will feed. And their pasture will be on all bare heights. They will
not hunger or thirst, neither will the scorching heat or sun strike
him down; for He who has compassion on them will lead them, and
will guide them to springs of water....Behold, these shall come
from afar; and lo, these will come from the north and from the west,
and those from the land of Sinim. Shout for joy, O heavens!
And rejoice, O earth! Break forth into joyful shouting, O mountains!
For the Lord has comforted His people, and will have compassion
on His afflicted...Thus says the Lord God, behold I will lift
up My hand to the nations, and set up My standard to the peoples;
and they will bring your sons in their bosom, and your daughters
will be carried on their shoulders. And kings will be your guardians,
and their princesses your nurses....Can the prey be taken from the
mighty man, or the captives of a tyrant be rescued? Surely, thus
says the Lord, even the captives of the mighty man will be taken
away, and the prey of the tyrant will be rescued; for I will contend
with the one who contends with you, and I will save your sons.
And I will feed your oppressors with their own flesh, and they will
become drunk with their own blood as with sweet wine; and all flesh
will know that 1, the Lord, am your Savior, and your Redeemer, the
Mighty one of Jacob."

have borne no child, break forth into joyful shouting and cry aloud,
you who have not travailed, for the sons of the desolate one
will be more numerous than the sons of the married woman, says the
Lord. Enlarge the place of your tent; stretch out the curtains
of your dwellings, spare not, lengthen your cords, and strengthen
your pegs. For you will spread abroad to the right and to the left.
And your descendants will possess nations, and they will resettle
the desolate cities....For a brief moment I forsook you, but
with great compassion I will gather you. In an outburst of anger
I hid My face from you for a moment, but with everlasting lovingkindness
I will have compassion on you, says the Lord your Redeemer...And
all your sons will be taught of the Lord, and the well-being of
your sons will be great."
28.
Isaiah 57:14...18 "And it shall be said, build up, build
up. Prepare the way, remove every obstacle out of the way of

him and restore comfort to him and to his mourners."
29.
Isaiah 60:4...8-9 "Lift up your eyes and see! For your sons
and daughters are coming home to you from distant lands....And who
are these who fly like a cloud to Israel, like doves to their nests?
I have reserved the ships of many lands, the very best, to bring
the sons of Israel home again from far away, bringing their wealth
with them. For the Holy One of Israel, known around the world,
has glorified you in the eyes of all." (Living Bible)
30.
Isaiah 62:4-7...10-12 "it will no longer be said to you, Forsaken,
nor to your land will it any longer be said, Desolate; but you will
be called, My delight is in her, and your land, married, for the
Lord delights in you, and to Him your land will be married. For
as a young man marries a virgin, so your sons will marry you; and
as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, so your God will rejoice
over you. On your walls, O Jerusalem, I have appointed watchmen;
all day and all night they will never keep silent. You who remind
the Lord, take no rest for yourselves; and give Him no rest until
He establishes and makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth....Go
through, go through the gates; clear the way for the people; build
up, build up the highway; remove the stones, lift up a standard
over the peoples. Behold, the Lord has proclaimed to the end of
the earth, say to the daughter of Zion, 'Lo, your salvation comes;
behold His reward is with Him, and His recompense before Him.' And
they will call them, 'The holy people, the redeemed of the Lord,
and you will be called, 'Sought out, a city not forsaken.'"
31.
Jeremiah 3:16-18 "And it shall be in those days when you are
multiplied and increased in the land, declares the Lord, they shall
say no more, The ark of the covenant of the Lord. And it shall not
come to mind, nor shall they remember it, nor shall they miss it,
nor shall it be made again. At that time they shall call Jerusalem
The Throne of the Lord, and all the nations will be gathered
to it, to Jerusalem, for the name of the Lord; nor shall they walk
anymore after the stubbornness of their evil heart. In those days
the house of Judah will walk with the house of Israel, and they
will come together from the land of the north to the land that
I gave your fathers as an inheritance."
32.

and I will redeem you from the grasp of the violent."
33.
Jeremiah 16:14-16 "Therefore behold, days are coming, declares
the Lord, when it will no longer be said, as the Lord lives, who
brought up the sons of Israel out of the land of Egypt, but, as
the Lord lives, who brought up the sons of Israel from the land
of the north and from all the countries where He had banished them.
For I will restore them to their own land which I gave to their
fathers. Behold, I am going to send for many fisherman, declares
the Lord and they will fish for them; and afterwards I shall send
for many hunters, and they will hunt them from every mountain and
every hill, and from the clefts of the rocks."
34.
Jeremiah 23: 3...7-8 "Then I Myself shall gather the remnant
of My flock out of all the countries where I have driven them and
shall bring them back to their pasture; and they will be fruitful
and multiply...Therefore behold, the days are coming, declares
the Lord, when they will no longer say, as the Lord lives, who brought
up the sons of Israel from the land of Egypt, but as the Lord lives,
who brought up and led back the descendants of the household of
Israel from the north land and from all the countries where I had
driven them. Then they will live on their own soil."
35.
Jeremiah 30: 16-17 "Therefore all who devour you shall be devoured;

and I will heal you of your wounds, declares the Lord, because
they have called you an outcast, saying; it is Zion; no one cares
for her."
36.
Jeremiah 31:7-11...21...31-34 "For thus says the Lord, sing
aloud with gladness for Jacob, and shout among the chiefs of the
nations; proclaim, give praise and say, O Lord, save Thy people,
the remnant of Israel. Behold, I am bringing them from the north
country, and I will gather them from the remote parts of
the earth, among them the blind and the lame,
the woman with child and she who is in labor with child,
together; a great company, they shall return here with weeping they
shall come, and by supplication I will lead them; I will make them
walk by streams of waters, on a straight path in which they shall
not stumble; for I am a father to Israel, and Ephraim is My first-born.
Hear the word of the Lord, O nations, and declare in the coastlands
afar off, and say, He who scattered Israel will gather him, and
keep him as a shepherd keeps his flock. For the Lord has ransomed
Jacob, and redeemed him from the hand of him who was stronger than
he....Set up for yourselves roadmarks, place for yourself guideposts;
direct your mind to the highway, the way by which you went Return,
O virgin of Israel, return to these your cities.......
Behold,
days are coming, declares the Lord, when I will make a new covenant
with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah, not like the
covenant which I made with their fathers in the day I took them
by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, My covenant
which they broke, although I was a husband to them, declares the
Lord. But this is the covenant which I will make with the house
of Israel after those days, declares the Lord, I will put My
law within them, and on their heart I will write it; and I will
be their God, and they shall be My people. And they shall not teach
again, each man his neighbor and each man his brother, saying Know
the Lord, for they shall all know Me, from the least of them to
the greatest of them, declares the Lord, for I will forgive their
iniquity, and their sin I will remember no more."
37.
Ezekiel 34: 11-13...16 "For thus Says the Lord God, behold,
I Myself will search for My sheep and seek them out As a shepherd
cares for his herd in the day when he is among his scattered sheep,
so I will care for My sheep and will deliver them from all the
places to which they were scattered on a cloudy and gloomy day.
And I will bring them out from the peoples and gather them from
the countries and bring them to their own land; and I will feed
them on the mountains of Israel, by the streams and in all the inhabited
places of the land...I will seek the lost, bring back the scattered,
bind up the broken, and strengthen the sick; but the fat and the
strong I will destroy. I will feed them with judgment."

Then I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you will be clean;
I will cleanse you from all your filthiness and from all your idols.
Moreover, I will give you a new heart and put a now spirit within
you,, and I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give
you a heart of flesh. And I will put My Spirit within you and cause
you to walk in My statues, and you will be careful to observe My
ordinances. And you will live in the land that I gave to your
forefathers; so you will be My people, and I will be your God."
39.

when I have opened your graves and caused you to come up out of
your graves, My people. And I will put My Spirit within you, and
you will come to life, and I will place you on your own
land. Then you will know that I, the Lord, have spoken and done
it, declares the Lord."
40.

and gather them from the lands of their enemies, then I shall

go into exile among the nations, and then gathered them again to
their own land; and I will leave none of them there any longer."
41.
Hosea 11:3-4 "Yet it is I who taught Ephraim to walk, I took

and fed them."
42.
Amos 9:13-14 "Behold days are coming, declares the Lord, when
the plowman will overtake the reaper and the treader of grapes him
who sows seed; when the mountains will drip sweet wine, and all

of My people Israel, and they will rebuild the ruined cities and
live in them, they will also plant vineyards and drink their
wine, and make gardens and eat their fruit."
43.
Micah 4:6-7 "In that day, declares the Lord, I will assemble

a strong nation, and the Lord will reign over them in Mount
Zion from now on and forever."
44.
Zechariah 2:6-7 "Ho there! Flee from the land of the north, declares

joy."
