Breaking new ground bible verse

Here are a few Bible verses that talk about breaking new ground:

  1. Psalm 126:3-4: "The Lord has done great things for us, and we are filled with joy. Restore our fortunes, Lord, like streams in the desert. Those who plant with tears will harvest with songs of joy. Though they go out weeping, carrying seed to sow, they will return with songs of joy, carrying sheaves with them."
  2. Isaiah 43:19: "I will make a way in the wilderness and streams in the desert. I will plant in the wilderness the cedar, the acacia tree, and the myrtle, and the olive tree. I will set the desert to bloom as the crocus, and the heath to bloom as the lily."
  3. Job 38:27: "Do you command the morning, and make the dawn know its place, that it may take hold of the ends of the earth and shake the wicked out of it?"
  4. Psalm 68:8: "You ascended the high mountain, and seized the spoil of the mighty. The Lord, the Lord, is my strength; he makes my feet like the feet of a deer, he makes me tread on my high places."
  5. Hosea 2:14-15: "Therefore, behold, I will allure her, and bring her into the wilderness, and speak comfortably unto her. And there I will give her her vineyards, and the valley of Achor for a door of hope: and she shall sing there, as in the days of her youth, and as in the day when she came up out of the land of Egypt."

These verses speak to the idea of breaking new ground, whether it's in a physical sense (e.g., Isaiah 43:19) or a spiritual sense (e.g., Psalm 126:3-4). They remind us that God is capable of doing great things, even in the most barren and desolate places.
