Isaiah 23, and FULL-FILLment, and success in our times

There's a long prelude that:

A. Takes us into Romans 8:26 for our prayer-success, and

B. Confirms, again, the absolute sovereignty of God who can impact and direct events on earth even as arrogant nations seek guidance from false gods in their ignorance and self-will.

Tyre, in Isa 23, offers us an early and parallel snapshot of the Lord's divine taking-down of a demonized world stronghold, very much like He will do again in Rev 18:9-19. It's the "Roamin' Empire".

And in the midst of it all, our unstoppable yet merciful God offers repentant man forgiveness, reconciliation, and peace:

Isaiah 27:4-5
4 Fury is not in Me.
Who would set briers and thorns
Against Me in battle?
I would go through them,
I would burn them together.
5 Or let him take hold of My strength,
That he may make peace with Me;
And he shall make peace with Me.”

(NKJV Strong's)
