Show Notes: The LORD of hosts is a promise-keeping God. Today’s passage reveals His desire to bless the obedience of the people and to encourage them with the future glory that will come. He boldly declares that the silver and gold belong to Him. And, the LORD tells them not to fall into the trap of comparison – Solomon’s temple and this rebuilt temple. He gives a beautiful promise for the people. “This house will be greater than the former and in this place I will give peace.” God can change our perspective when we choose to look toward the future glory that awaits us. Scripture Passage: Haggai 2:5-9
