The Father is now calling for a great move of repentance in the hearts of His people. He is once again sounding the call to return from the captivity brought on by a spirit of religion, pride, and works of the flesh, to build the House of God according to the measure of the stature of Christ in the fullness of His glory! A holy place aligned to the plumb line of Christ according to His mind, His heart, and His ways!
He is now saying to all His people in every nation from every tribe, and especially to Israel:
"Yet now be strong...all of you people of the land,' says the LORD, 'and work; for I am with you,' says the LORD of hosts. 'According to the word I covenanted with you when you came out of Egypt, so My Spirit remains among you; do not fear!'
"For thus says the Lord of hosts: 'Once more (it is a little while) I will shake heaven and earth, the sea and dry land; and I will shake all nations, and they shall come to the Desire of All Nations, and I will fill this temple with glory,' says the Lord of hosts. The silver is mine, and the gold is mine,' says the Lord of hosts. 'The glory of this latter temple shall be greater than the former,' says the Lord of hosts. 'And in this place I will give peace,' says the Lord of hosts" (Haggai 2:4-9).
After a long season of refining and preparation, God is now about to release His great armies in Heaven and on earth in a divine coalition to defeat the powers of darkness in the dance
orchestrated by Heaven!
God is blowing the trumpet and calling the Israel of God to return with Him to complete the house of God begun in Jerusalem. The call is now going out to rebuild the end-time temple – the headstone of the house of God – with shouts of "GRACE, GRACE to it!"
"And He shall bring forth the headstone with shoutings, crying 'Grace, grace unto it.'" Zechariah 4:7
God has prepared a "headstone generation" for such a time and for such a task! A generation that has ascended to union with Christ in mind and heart, to become a mature man of great authority (see Ephesians 4:13). When both the Tabernacle of Moses and the Temple of Solomon were completed according to God's specifications, the glory of God filled the temple! The measure that the house of God is structured according to the Father's design – whether individually or corporately – determines the measure of His glory it will reflect. At the completion of the end-time temple in the Book of Ezekiel, God's declaration over it is "Yahweh Shamah" – THE LORD, HE IS THERE! ...the name of the city from that day shall be, "The LORD is there." Ezekiel 48:35
