Isaiah 54:11
The Prosperity of the Church; The Prosperity of ZionThis section gives comforting promises to God’s people when they are in a low and troubled state. Even when the church is tossed by storms and troubles, God promises that He will restore her and raise her to greater honor and security than ever before. The passage uses the picture of a beautiful city to show how God will bless His people with knowledge, peace, and protection. These promises point not only to the return of the Jews from exile, but also look forward to the blessings of the gospel and the spiritual prosperity of God’s people in every age.v. 11: The church is described as "afflicted, tossed with tempest, and not comforted." This means God's people feel poor, troubled, and alone, like a ship in a storm with no one to help. But God sees their suffering and promises to comfort them. He will not leave His people in their troubles but will notice their grief and bring them relief .
