This is the Place

'“For this is what the Lord of Heaven’s Armies says: In just a little while I will again shake the heavens and the earth, the oceans and the dry land.  I will shake all the nations, and the treasures of all the nations will be brought to this Temple. I will fill this place with glory, says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies.  The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies.  The future glory of this Temple will be greater than its past glory, says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies. And in this place I will bring peace. I, the Lord of Heaven’s Armies, have spoken!”' Haggai 2:6-9 (NLT)

Dear Father.
You will bring peace. Your son is called the 'Prince of Peace'. Your Kingdom is righteousness. Your River of Peace will never run dry. First thing, check our hearts, then follow the Peace. Put God's Word in front before the words of any man! Just as in the days when Israel was set free and You parted the Red Sea, this is the place to be. But, not as the world brings peace, for Your ways are higher and Your ways are much better. Your ways are much bigger. Your ways affect the nations. You always work everything out in great detail and on a grand scale for all of Your people to see.

Now, we are able to see You this day, in this thing. It does appear to be so big that it has to be You. Amidst the corruption and the chaos You are about to reveal Your Glory. You caught us just in time, stupidly partnering with the enemy, that kills, steals and destroys. What looks to be an impossible situation today we see You and Your Peace and Joy in it. Our simple work that looks to be accomplishing nothing in our own hands, we weren't prepared for it and there seems to be no cure for it, just as when Moses was holding up the staff, in that place, You were there holding back the waters. You were doing all of the work in the supernatural so that Your people would not drown in their circumstances and it turned out to be something amazing in Your hands as Your people walked across dry land to their freedom. You are the cure. You are able to do anything.We will stand and get ready to be amazed!

But, first, the shaking, and it is necessary, that is what will kill it, and it will include both heaven and earth. Nothing will be left out. Everything on earth will be affected by it as the divine judgment falls and it will be glorious and for many, unexpected. All of the enemies of Your people will be destroyed, as the people on earth and the angels in heaven respond to your great power. You are speaking to us again and Your Church hears Your voice which once again is shaking the earth and we are moved by it. And, just as in the days of Moses, we are lead by Your Spirit, when the army of Pharaoh refused to hear You, and were swallowed up by the waters of the sea, so be it now.

All nations and with their treasures will come to see that You are Lord. And, as in the days in Egypt, when your children that worshiped You were given all of the gold and silver in Egypt, so shall it be. They were once slaves and then they were handed all of the wealth of the king, which their hands had helped create, which had been stolen from them during their captivity, which now could hardly contain it all, so be it now. Their day and hour of redemption had arrived.Don't stop tithing. Don't stop giving. The oil will not run out!

This place will be filled with Your Glory. Your glory fell the day You set Your people free, just as before, when You sent Jesus to accomplish Your will and heal and save Your people and just as now, when the end to it all is drawing near. You tell the sinners to wake up. You encourage us. We are not to fear. Even when we feel that the labors of our own hands are so insignificant, the same materials that we use in Your hands will accomplish the amazing things that turn the bad situations around into the good. And You will hand our inheritance back to us. To see this great turn-around, we are to continue building, Your House, Your Kingdom, with our words and with our own hands we are to labor, as an offering and as we recognize Your greatness in the process and know that You and that Your Name and that Your Glory are eternal.

All the wealth of silver and gold is Yours. You own it all even all the cattle on one thousand hills and You will place all the materials that we need to build Your Temple in our hands. You will restore that which the enemy has stolen from us in an instant. You will feed us. You will take care of us. You will protect us. You will shake the nations until all of their wealth falls into Your Temple. Turn the corruptible into the incorruptible. So be it now Lord. Why be frustrated over lack of funds? This day is coming. Thank you Lord.

In Jesus's name.
Amen.

Jesus is alive and His work of redemption is finished. Peace through Him has come to this place. So look up. Work harder. Do not be discouraged by what you see in the natural. We, the redeemed, have this blessed Hope and are not afraid to say so. Dare to believe in Him. Even when what we see with our own eyes seems so hopeless to us, we must keep doing what we have been called to do, for His name's sake, it is not in vain, for we can know that God is in control.  This is a new day. Chains are being broken. Babies are being saved. Crowns are being laid at His feet. He is a great God. He is in the middle of everything and multiplying efforts and working it all out for His Glory. Amen.
