THE GLORY OF THIS LATTER HOUSE – PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME.
The glory of THIS LATTER HOUSE shall be greater than of the former, saith the LORD of hosts: and in this place will I give peace, saith the LORD of hosts (Haggai 2:9).
Notice the expression βThe glory of this latter houseβ in our opening text. The emphasis here is on the word βthisβ, a demonstrative adjective that specifies what is being referred to. So, in our opening verse, it refers to the present: βthis latter houseβ; it didnβt say, βthe latter house.β Theyβre two different things. The prophet wasnβt talking about the glory of a house in the future, but the glory of βthis present house,β the house currently being built.
Itβs important to make this clarification, because oftentimes when these words are given in prophetic language, itβs often said that βThe glory of the latter house, shall exceed the former,β but thatβs not what God said. We have the tendency to always push it to the future, as though we have a plan to build the latter house someday; but itβs not futuristic!
There was a former house, but it was destroyed; hence, the need for this latter house. So, the prophet says the glory of this current house, that is, whatever youβre building right now, whatever projects or visions youβre involved in, expect that the glory will by far surpass anything youβve ever seen or experienced. What house are you building now? Make it the glorious house of your dream now; donβt push it to the future.
Youβve been exposed to new ideas and innovations; put them to work; upgrade and surpass the old experience. In the previous vision, you had a pattern, and you were going to build it according to that pattern, but youβve gained new insight, youβve seen a bigger vision, so you need to upgrade and change the levels to conform to this new vision. You declare, βI make all things new in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ; Iβm making adjustments for this new level.β Hallelujah!
PRAYER.
Dear Father, youβve made me the expression of your grace and righteousness. I have the nature of Christ; therefore, as I continue to behold your glory in your Word, I make progress from glory to glory, in Jesusβ Name. Amen.
