HAGGAI 2:1-9

" On the twenty-first day of the seventh month, the word of the LORD came through the prophet Haggai:

"Speak to Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, to Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and to the remnant of the people. Ask them,

’Who of you is left who saw this house in its former glory? How does it look to you now? Does it not seem to you like nothing?

But now be strong, O Zerubbabel,’ declares the LORD. ’Be strong, O Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest. Be strong, all you people of the land,’ declares the LORD, ’and work. For I am with you,’ declares the LORD Almighty.

’This is what I covenanted with you when you came out of Egypt. And my Spirit remains among you. Do not fear.’

"This is what the LORD Almighty says: ’In a little while I will once more shake the heavens and the earth, the sea and the dry land.

I will shake all nations, and the desired of all nations will come, and I will fill this house with glory,’ says the LORD Almighty.

’The silver is mine and the gold is mine,’ declares the LORD Almighty.

’The glory of this present house will be greater than the glory of the former house,’ says the LORD Almighty. ’And in this place I will grant peace,’ declares the LORD Almighty."

ISAIAH 43:1-7

" But now, this is what the LORD says—he who created you, O Jacob, he who formed you, O Israel: "Fear not, for I have Redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine.

When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze.

For I am the LORD, your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior; I give Egypt for your ransom, Cush and Seba in your stead.

Since you are precious and honored in my sight, and because I love you, I will give men in exchange for you, and people in exchange for your life.

Do not be afraid, for I am with you; I will bring your children from the east and gather you from the west.

I will say to the north, ’Give them up!’ and to the south, ’Do not hold them back.’ Bring my sons from afar and my daughters from the ends of the earth-

everyone who is called by my name, whom I created for my glory, whom I formed and made."

4.THE LORD WANTS TO BE GLORIFIED IN OUR LIVES. HE CALLED US BY NAME WHEN WE WERE STILL IN OUR MOTHER’S WOMB. HE WANTS TO MAKE OUR MOUTH AS A SHARPENED SWORD. WE MUST YIELD OUR TONGUE TO THE LORD. WE MUST NOT SPEAK WORDS THAT DO NOT GLORIFY THE LORD. OUR WORDS MUST BE FILLED WITH PRAISE AND ADORATION AND FAITH AND CONFIDENCE .

ISAIAH 49:1-3

" Listen to me, you islands; hear this, you distant nations: Before I was born the LORD called me; from my birth he has made mention of my name.

He made my mouth like a sharpened sword, in the shadow of his hand he hid me; he made me into a polished arrow and concealed me in his quiver.

He said to me, "You are my servant, Israel, in whom I will display my splendor."
