“They will certainly build houses and have occupancy; and they will certainly plant vineyards and eat their fruitage. They will not build and someone else have occupancy; they will not plant and someone else do the eating. For like the days of a tree will the days of my people be; and the work of their own hands my chosen ones will use to the full.” (Isaiah 65:21, 22)

30. What happy situation do Jehovah’s servants enjoy today, and what will they enjoy in the new world?

³⁰ In our day, there has been a fulfillment of this prophecy. Jehovah’s people came forth from spiritual exile in 1919 and began restoring their “land,” or realm of activity and worship. They built congregations and cultivated spiritual fruitfulness. As a result, even now Jehovah’s people enjoy a spiritual paradise and God-given peace.
