You will bring them

"Then He inaugurated Joshua the son of Nun, and said, 'Be strong and of good courage; for you shall bring the children of Israel into the land of which I swore to them, and I will be with you.'" Deuteronomy 31.23

God never asks the impossible. Before giving an order, He gives the person the ability to obey. As He pours out from His Spirit, that person becomes His child, and is enabled to expand His Kingdom in the hearts of those who seek Him.
Exercise your faith seizing all opportunities, for He is with you.

The zeal of God

"For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness." Romans 1.18
In His Infinite Greatness, God makes sure that no injustice go unpunished. His anger is kindled against all forms of injustice that, in other words, are the works of the flesh: "...adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God." Galatians 5.19-21

Justice

“Behold, God is mighty, but despises no one; He is mighty in strength of understanding. He does not preserve the life of the wicked, but gives justice to the oppressed." Job 36.5-6
The character of the Most High is Justice. Because of that, although His mercy is immeasurable and His love infinite, still, He does not clear the guilty.But he listens to the cry of the just and afflicted who call upon Him in sincerity.

God of the New Israel

“It shall come to pass that before they call, I will answer; and while they are still speaking, I will hear." Isaiah 65.24

The promises of God are clear, but subject to conditions. They are like an exchange...
If there is obedience, then, in return, there are blessings; if there is disobedience, then no deal.
In reality, this "exchange" is nothing more than an expression of faith and trust in Him.

I will make the difference


"Therefore thus says the Lord God: 'Behold, My servants shall eat, but you shall be hungry; Behold, My servants shall drink, but you shall be thirsty; Behold, My servants shall rejoice, but you shall be ashamed." Isaiah 65.13
The difference required is not a matter of revenge against those who do not share the same faith, but simply the rights which were acquired by faith in the sacrifice that was made on Calvary. It's just a matter of JUSTICE for those who believe.

The impossible happens

"I will open rivers in desolate heights, and fountains in the midst of the valleys; I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water." Isaiah 41.18
The God of Abraham is the God of the impossible. This is what distinguishes Him from the gods of wood, stone, metal or paper. Therefore, the difference in the quality of life of those who believe in the God of Abraham has to be clear, obvious and indisputable, if compared with the life of those who rely on other gods. It's not even a matter of faith, but of intelligence.

Who wants to drink?

“The poor and needy seek water, but there is none, their tongues fail for thirst. I, the LORD, will hear them; I, the God of Israel, will not forsake them." Isaiah 41.17
The faith that pleases God is the certainty that He will do what He promised and taking action. Unfortunately, most Christians have not seen the manifestation of God's power because they expect to "feel the faith" and only then take action. That is, they want to see in order to believe. So, they cannot take possession of the Biblical promises.
The ancient heroes of faith believedacted out on their belief and then saw the fulfillment of God's Word.
