In the Joel 1:6-7 we read where the locust plague has caused the entire land to be laid waste…ruining all vegetation. But in this verse, amidst all that devastation, God promises the physical renewal of the land. Now this is not the first time God used locust to inflict punishment. In Exodus 10:1-20, He used the locust plague in Egypt to harden Pharaoh’s disobedient heart…much in the same way He threatened Israel in Amos 4:9. But God is faithful, and a Covenant-Keeping God Who punishes but will never abandon. You may look around you today and see 0nly ruin…but God promises you restitution and compensation as you continue to seek Him.
