For look! I am about to create new heavens and a new earth, and the former things shall not be remembered, and they shall not come to mind. But rejoice and shout in exultation forever and ever over what I am about to create! For look! I am about to create Jerusalem as a source of rejoicing, and her people as a source of joy. And I will shout in exultation over Jerusalem, and I will rejoice over my people, and the sound of weeping shall no longer be heard in it, or the sound of a cry for help. There will no longer be a nursing infant who lives only a few days, or an old man who does not fill his days, for the boy will die a hundred years old, and the one who fails to reach a hundred years will be considered accursed.
And they shall build houses and inhabit them, and they shall plant vineyards and eat their fruit. They shall not build and another inhabit; they shall not plant and another eat. For the days of my people shall be like the days of a tree, and my chosen ones shall enjoy the work of their hands. They shall not labor for nothing, and they shall not give birth to horror, for they shall be offspring blessed by Yahweh, and their descendants with them. And this will happen: before they call, I myself will answer; while still they are speaking, I myself will hear. The wolf and the lamb shall feed like one, and the lion shall eat straw like the ox, but dust shall be the serpent’s food. They shall do no evil, and they shall not destroy on all my holy mountain,” says Yahweh.
God declares the truth, reality,

The Holy Spirit teaches us new truths
I still have many things to say to you, but you are not able to bear them now. But when he—the Spirit of truth—comes, he will guide you into all the truth. For he will not speak from himself, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will proclaim to you the things to come.
New to us, not in general
there are no new biblical revelations
but the Holy Spirit teaches us new things from Gods word
as we mature He teaches us more advanced doctrines
as we mature he gives us meat to eat instead of milk
its like finding nuggets of truth in the pages of His word
The Holy Spirit has sent me on many new quests
are you open to new truths?
are you praying for the Holy Spirit to teach you
do you love God’s word? are you willing to be taught?
Maybe you are believing something that is not true. are you willing to be open to the Spirits teaching?
I have had my mind changed many times
He will glorify me, because he will take from what is mine and will proclaim it to you. Everything that the Father has is mine. For this reason I said that he takes from what is mine and will proclaim it to you.
Our study is to know Jesus,
the Holy Spirit teaches us Jesus
