Excellent message! You have clearly explained who is the Israel mentioned in verse 3. But you did not identify this "Israel" referred to in verse 1 as "the Islands/Coastlands...distant nation". Allow me to reveal it. There is a country, a group of island in Southest Asia - a "distant nation" from present day Israel. Referred to by the early Spanish explorers as Ophir and called "Land of Gold" by neighboring lands since time immemorial. Where King Solomon got his gold for the temple. These Islands/Coastlands have become poor and reticule by other nations. It is the only Christian nation in Asia. It has been named as "The sick man of Asia" due to poverty. It suffers to a lot of calamities, corruption and persecution from other nation, and foreigners doesn't want to go into that country. It has a lot of people working overseas all over the world to support their family back home. This country have opened its doors for the Jews who where escaping from persecution in Europe in WW2. Now God gave this Islands/Coastlands a promise in Isaiah 60. "Arise, shine for your light has come". God will bless the Philippines, "The House of Gods Glory", "The Place of Gods Feet", "The City of The Lord", "The Zion of The Holy One of Israel" and God will hasten it in his time.
Philippines is the "The Isles", "Coastlands". Isaiah 60:3 - the Gentiles shall come to thy light and kings to the brightness of thy rising. Philippines are not Gentiles but part of Gods people. Philippines is going to be the wealthiest nation.
Praise Yahweh!!!
