10And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest shall be glorious (Isaiah 11:10).
32And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me (John 12:32).
44While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word. 45And they of the circumcision which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost. 46For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter, 47Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we? 48And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days (Acts 10:44-48).
18When they heard these things, they held their peace, and glorified God, saying, Then hath God also to the Gentiles granted repentance unto life (Acts 11:18).
25For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles be come in. 26And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Zion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob: 27For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins (Romans 11:25-27).
9And that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy; as it is written, For this cause I will confess to thee among the Gentiles, and sing unto thy name. 10And again he saith, Rejoice, ye Gentiles, with his people. 11And again, Praise the Lord, all ye Gentiles; and laud him, all ye people. 12And again, Esaias saith, There shall be a root of Jesse, and he that shall rise to reign over the Gentiles; in him shall the Gentiles trust (Romans 15:9-12).
At the time that Isaiah prophesized, it would have been unimaginable in the minds of the people that the Messiah of Israel would have also been meant for the Gentiles as well. It would have been equally unimaginable at the time of Christ. Yet it was God’s plan from the beginning for the salvation of Israel to be the banner to all the nations. This is an amazing prophecy and literally billions of people have responded to the call of the Gospel. The prophecy of Isaiah 11:10 will continue to be fulfilled until the full number of Gentiles comes to belief in Christ (Romans 11:25). God’s call is sure and irrevocable; His promises are from everlasting and are forever. The God that calls you will bring you to salvation.
