Then the Lord was jealous for his land and took pity on his people. The Lord replied to them: “I am sending you grain, new wine and olive oil, enough to satisfy you fully; never again will I make you an object of scorn to the nations.
Then you will know that I am in Israel, that I am the Lord your God, and that there is no other; never again will my people be shamed.
And afterward, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your old men will dream dreams, your young men will see visions. Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days.
And everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved; for on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem
there will be deliverance, as the Lord has said, even among the survivors whom the Lord calls.Moved with pity and compassion, God promises to restore in profusion all that the locusts have taken. He will rid the land of the locust army he has sent against them.
More than this, God promises a great outpouring of his Spirit, not just on priests and prophets, but on ordinary people, regardless of gender, age, or class. In acts 2:16-21, Peter, addressing a crowd of Jews gathered in Jerusalem from every nation under heaven, announces that this prophecy of Joel is being fulfilled.
Why?
God loves his people and his nation, so God announced the new generation will come, restore all lost by locust and much more to give his people.
More important is God will pour his Spirit on all people, Even on God's servants, both men, and women, God will pour out Spirit in the day of God.
Everyone will be saved when he class on the name of the Lord. This is good news for everyone.

神注意到這句話: 你的神在那裏? 神憐恤哀傷痛悔的人。
神給人是豐富的,使人得以生活美好。不在列國中成為笑談。使外敵離開。此預言的細節都會應允。
出於神的預言,連細節都會應驗。
正常的降雨在適當的時間表示人與神的關係正常。
補還:表示神不願意降災,因人犯罪將原來要給人的收回。其實神不是不願意給,神一直在找時機送恩典、禮物給我們。所以將以前收回的都給我們。神不缺這些。
兒女要說預言,不分男女老少。見異象,做異夢。
煙、火、血表示保護、火柱帶領、以血為約的保證

How?
Praise to the Lord and give thanks to the Lord for his mercy and great salvation come upon us.
