What does Isaiah 43:19 mean?

Isaiah 43:19 is a powerful verse that speaks to God’s ability to bring new things into our lives, even in the midst of challenging circumstances. The verse says, “Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall you not know it? I will even make a road in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.”

Breaking Down the Verse:

• “Behold” or “See”: God is commanding attention, urging us to lift our eyes from present troubles and focus on His active presence.
• “I will do a new thing”: God promises to bring something fresh and unprecedented, surpassing former deliverances. This “new thing” is grounded in God’s unchanging nature, making it reliable and trustworthy.
• “Make a way in the wilderness and streams in the desert”: God pledges to provide tangible guidance and sustenance in barren places. This imagery symbolizes His ability to transform impossible situations into places of abundance and life.

What Does This Mean for Us?

Isaiah 43:19 reminds us that God is a God of new beginnings, who can make a way where there seems to be no way. He’s not limited by our circumstances or geography. This verse encourages us to trust in God’s plan, even when we can’t see a way forward. It’s a call to faith, reminding us that God is actively working, often beneath the surface, to bring about a new reality ¹.

Key Takeaways:

• God is actively working: Even when we can’t see it, God is moving to bring about a new thing in our lives.
• Trust in God’s plan: We can trust that God has a path forward, even in the wilderness of our lives.
• New beginnings are possible: God can bring beauty out of brokenness and make a way where there seems to be no way ².

What is Fentanyl?

Fentanyl is a synthetic opioid that is made in a lab from precursor chemicals instead of from poppies. It is 50 times more potent than heroin and 100 times more potent than morphine. According to the DEA, 2 milligrams of fentanyl is generally considered a lethal dose for most people. This is equivalent to a few grains of salt.

Fentanyl was developed as a powerful pain relief drug for people with end-of-life cancers. In a medical setting, it can be administered via injection, patch, or lozenge. Clandestinely produced fentanyl is usually a powder added into other drugs (cocaine, heroin, methamphetamine even marijuana) or pressed into counterfeit pills that can look like OxyContin, Percocet, Vicodin, Xanax, Alprazolam, Adderall, Ecstasy, Molly, or other pills/tablets.

Why is Fentanyl being added to street drugs?

Fentanyl is much cheaper to make than other opioids. It is also easier to smuggle because small amounts are very powerful. It is a lot easier to smuggle in a baggie of Fentanyl powder than kilogram bricks of other drugs for the same profit margin.

 In addition, it is highly addictive making individuals wanting/needing to buy more as they chase their first high.

Why would drug dealers add Fentanyl to drugs if it can kill people?

Because Fentanyl is cheap and so highly addictive, it creates a much greater profit margin. The occasional loss of one or two users are not detrimental to their bottom line because they know that another addict can be easily created.

People can also develop a tolerance for Opioids like Fentanyl requiring them to use more and more to get high. This causes drug dealers and cartels to make stronger pills with more Fentanyl. However, these stronger pills may kill newer users who have not developed such a tolerance.

 In addition, some dealers intentionally add deadly amounts to some pills because the death of a user is like an advertisement that that dealer has really strong drugs.

Finally, these drugs are being mixed and cooked in open air “labs” in rural parts of China and Mexico. These labs are not being run by individuals with an interest in quality control and scientific measures. They use large vats over inconsistent heating elements.

What can parents do about Fentanyl?

Address any underlying concerns that may lead to your child to take Fentanyl intentionally or unintentionally. Parents of Fentanyl victims often report that their children took a pill or other drug to try deal with issues related to sleep, anxiety, loneliness, or other emotional challenges.

Talk with your kids about Fentanyl. They likely know someone who has died from Fentanyl poisoning or overdose. Share concerns Fentanyl raises for you both. Don’t threaten but talk about risks and that even one pill from someone they trust can kill.  Inhaling it by mistake can be deadly.

Keep an eye on your kid’s backpack, room, car, or phone. Fentanyl is most often smoked using a pill crusher, small piece of tinfoil, lighter, and straw to inhale the smoke. Other items indicating use may be needles, small mirrors, scales, blotter paper, unlabeled candies, blue M-30 pills, Xanax “bars”, or other pills/tablets/capsules.

Be aware of what your child is doing on their phone. Pills and other drugs are now often purchased through Snap Chat, Gaming Platform “chat” functions, and other dark web sites. Today, there are about 9,300 websites selling drugs illegally on the Dark web. According to the Center for Addiction and Substance Abuse, ONE in FIVE teens have already tried prescription drugs illegally.

 The majority, 76 percent of these teenagers, buy these prescription pills illegally.

Check your kid’s phones for unusual words like Blues, Blueberries, Apache, China Girl, China Town, Dance Fever, Friend, Goodfellas, Great Bear, He-Man, Jackpot, King Ivory, Murder 8, Tango & Cash, f3nt, TNT, fluff, tabs, vikes, hydros, vitamins, ercs, or 30s. However, these “code” words change frequently so pay attention to any odd abbreviations or words.

I want to inform all of you that this type of drug can kill an average person from inhaling it.  I know that inside of my apartment building, people are smoking Fentanyl with Marijuana and Crack Cocaine.

 I know that this is a very difficult medication to cure; if anyone comes in contact with this drug, it can kill you.

I know that last night on 1/26/24, someone threw some of this powder contents inside of the apartment building where I live at in Dayton, Ohio.  I know that I was taking my asthma medication, when suddenly, I came in contact with this powdered substance.

 I went to the hospital several times because someone was smoking this drug at Wentworth Hi Rise Apartments located at 2765 Wentworth Avenue Dayton, Ohio 45406.  I had to leave my apartment building this afternoon because someone was smoking this drug inside of the hallway at my apartment complex.

This is an image of my apartment building in Dayton, Ohio.  I know that this is a residential building. 

In Conclusion, I want to inform all of you that there are residents, who are living inside of this building who are called bad apples.

This is another example of what this drug looks like in Dayton, Ohio and worldwide.  I have to be very careful because this is called Rainbow Fentanyl.  This stuff looks like candy, but it is highly addictive and it deadly!!

There are people who have been prescribed Fentanyl as a substance to prevent pain inside of the body.  This drug is prescribed in lower dosages by physicians worldwide.  Please be very careful because the marijuana that people are smoking today contains fentanyl.

 This drug is very dangerous.  If you know of anyone who is in contact with this drug, please contact your nearest Law Enforcement or the paramedics inside of your hometown.  Thank you very much for reading my essay.
