Haggai 2:9 (KJV)
9 "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."

The book of Haggai is often overlooked. Many of us don't even know it exists as a book in the bible. But it contains profound truth that points us straight to Jesus and the eternal salvation He offers. God promises that the "glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the former," and that "in this place will I give peace.

On the surface level it seems like God is speaking about the temple being rebuilt. But when we look deeper, it carries a spiritual meaning that points to Jesus Christ as the true fulfillment of this promise.

The "latter house" is symbolic of the new covenant through Jesus. Under the old covenant, the temple was where God’s presence dwelled, but now, through Jesus, we have become the dwelling place of God’s Spirit. He is with us always. The glory of Jesus’ sacrifice and the eternal salvation He secured for us is far greater than anything the old covenant could ever offer. 

When Haggai spoke of the future glory, he was prophesying about more than just the physical temple. He was pointing to the glory of Jesus Christ  and his eternal redemption. The peace that Haggai prophesied about was made possible through Jesus’ offering. He alone brings us true peace with God. The greatest temple isn’t built by hands, it's built off the blood of Jesus Christ.

Haggai also speaks about peace in this verse. This peace is more than just the absence of conflict. The peace we receive is an eternal relationship with God. We are no longer separated from God by sin, because Jesus has reconciled us through His perfect offering. Once we believe in Jesus, we are forever secure in our salvation, and nothing can take that away. The peace of the "latter house" is found in the fact that we have a permanent place in God’s family through Christ. 

Peace isn't just a feeling guys, it's forever. Different F's.

We are forever secure in Jesus. We can never lose our salvation no matter what is done. Jesus offered Himself as the ultimate sacrifice, He paid for all of our sins—past, present, and future. His sacrifice was perfect, and it accomplished what no other offering could. We are now made righteous through His blood, and we stand eternally justified in the eyes of God. We don’t need to strive or work to add to our salvation. It’s already been done. We have been perfected forever in Christ.

Rather than believing in signs and miracles, believe you are divine and spiritual. Amen!
