So the ransomed of the Lord shall return, and come to Zion with singing, with everlasting joy on their heads. They shall obtain joy and gladness; Sorrow and sighing shall flee away. Isaiah 51:11
God has a way of giving us great hope even before we know we need it. Bad times and bondage were coming for Israel but they didn't see it. God didn't just warn them, he gave them a glimpse of the victory beyond it. If we can learn to look beyond our sorrow and sighing, and see the joy set before us, we can endure anything with joy. Look yonder at the coming joy.
