Ever heard of Joel 2:28
Or Isaiah 9:6?
Prophecy is not always something that is fulfilled immediately.
Sometimes it takes a while.

That's not what he is saying, when Isaiah was in the court of Judean kings he was warning them concerning their enemies the Assyrians. When Isaiah prophesies in
Isaiah 19:1 against Egypt, the prophet speaks of God coming on a swift cloud against Egypt, and that the idols of Egypt will run away at His presence while the Egyptians melt with fear.
Psalm 104:3 speaks of God's chariots being clouds and that the wind actually has wings. Yet, in
Isaiah 20:1-3 is another warning of what was prophesied in
Isaiah 19:1. Let's not muddy the waters by having a misunderstanding of what the prophets were trying to say to Israel as a warnings. They were warning the kings, and those warnings would be fulfilled just in a short amount of time.
