I will euen make a way in the wildernesse, and riuers in the desert. 20The beast of the field shall honor mee, the dragons and the owles, because I giue waters in the wildernesse, and riuers in the desert, to giue drinke to my people, my chosen. 21This people haue I formed for my selfe, they shall shewe foorth my praise.

Wesley's Notes for Isaiah 43:19
43:19 A new thing - Such a work as was never yet done in the world. Now - The scripture often speaks of things at a great distance of time, as if they were now at hand; to make us sensible of the inconsiderableness of time, and all temporal things, in comparison of God, and eternal things; upon which account it is said, that a thousand years are in God's sight but as one day.
