Notice the words 'now it shall spring forth' here? The time is now to 'get rid of the old, and welcome the new'! In Philippians 3:13, the apostle Paul wrote, "... But one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead."
Isaiah 44:3 (NKJV) says, 'For I will pour water on him who is thirsty, and
floods on the dry ground; I will pour My Spirit on your descendants, and My
blessings on your offspring'.
This is also a time His Spirit and His blessings are being poured out upon you. As you 'get rid of the old, and welcome the new', heaven is also 'opening its door' for you, pouring out His rain (water) and blessings upon you (in any area of your life that you allow Him to). With men, things may be impossible, but with God, all things are possible (Luke 18:27). If He can make a road in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert, He can make all things possible for you.

Isaiah 43:13 (NKJV) says, 'Indeed before the day was, I am He; And there is
no one who can deliver out of My hand; I work, and who will reverse it?'
He is the Great I Am, and when He works, no one can reverse. Just like when winter ends, and spring comes, no one can stop God! The Bible says 'there is no one who can deliver out of His hand'. In cross-reference, Revelation 3:8 (NIV) says, '… See. I have placed before you an open door
that no one can shut'.
People of God, God can open the door for you even in the most unexpected of times! God can even set 'good things' up for you even in the midst of your 'routine' work! For example, Peter (while He was washing his fishing nets after a whole night of toiling) and David (while He was bringing breakfast to his brothers).
God
opened the door for new things in Peter’s life
Unexpectedly, at a time when Peter was rather down and exhausted (after having toiled much and
with no results), Jesus came into his boat and changed his life forever. See Luke 5:3-6, Luke 5:8-11.
God opened the door for new things in David’s life
Unexpectedly, at a time when David was doing a seemingly mundane job (of bringing breakfast for his brothers who were at the army camp), God set up an appointment for him that changed his life forever. See 1 Samuel 17:17-20, 1 Samuel 17:22-23, 1 Samuel 17:32.
See? Unexpected divinely-arranged appointments set up by none other but the Great I Am! Call it a 'pleasant surprise' if you may! Praise God!
In the morning, Peter was struggling to catch even one fish, but later on that same day, he became the partner and co-worker of the One who owns all the fishes in the world!
In the morning, David was just humbly doing a menial task of serving breakfast to his brothers, but later on that same day, he was exalted by God to be a national hero, having single-handedly defeated Goliath, the champion of the Philistines!
All happened on the same day for each of them!
And just as happened to Peter and David in those days, it can also come in the most unexpected way (and suddenly) for you these days. God hasn't changed in the way He works. He is indeed the same yesterday, today, and forever (Hebrews 13:8). Of course, God saw them ready, even though they didn't even know they were ready! God's timing is always the best!

People of God, this is a time of 'open doors' and God's favor upon His people (even if others may say or report otherwise). The Bible says so, and that's what matters most. Those who sow in tears will reap in joy, and those who are humble will be exalted, yes, often times even in the most unexpected manner. Amen.
