Joel 2:27

27 You will know that I am in the midst of Israel, and that I am the LORD your God—no other exists; never again will my people be put to shame.

Joel 2:27 Meaning and Commentary

Joel 2:27

And ye shall know that I [am] in the midst of Israel
The presence of God among his people shall be so manifest, the tokens of it so clear, that it shall be easily known, by the impressions of his love upon them; the teachings of his Spirit in them; the usefulness of the word and ordinances to them; the spiritual and heavenly frame of soul they shall be favoured with, and the savouriness of their conversation; this is the blessing Christ has promised to Gospel ministers and churches, ( Matthew 28:20 ) ; and [that] I [am] the Lord your God, and none else;
that he is their covenant God and Father, and acknowledge none else: and my people shall never be ashamed;
which is repeated for the certainty of it; see ( Joel 2:26 ) .

Joel 2:27 In-Context

25 I will repay you for the years that the cutting locust, the swarming locust, the hopping locust, and the devouring locust have eaten— my great army, which I sent against you.
26 You will eat abundantly and be satisfied, and you will praise the name of the LORD your God, who has done wonders for you; and my people will never again be put to shame.
27 You will know that I am in the midst of Israel, and that I am the LORD your God—no other exists; never again will my people be put to shame.
28 After that I will pour out my spirit upon everyone; your sons and your daughters will prophesy, your old men will dream dreams, and your young men will see visions.
29 In those days, I will also pour out my spirit on the male and female slaves.
