Jesus died on the cross to purchase a triumphant church, not a church that is crushed in debt and financial distress, hoping to escape before things completely fall apart.
Then He said to Abram: “Know certainly that your descendants will be strangers in a land that is not theirs, and will serve them, and they will afflict them four hundred years. And also the nation whom they serve I will judge; afterward they shall come out with great possessions” (Genesis 15:13-14).
God made a covenant with Abraham that when his descendants came out of Egypt they would not go empty-handed. Some Christians are always looking for the rapture of the church and are willing to leave empty-handed and downtrodden. We do not find these types of negative spiritual parallels in the Scripture. Jesus died on the cross to purchase a triumphant church, not a church that is crushed in debt and financial distress, hoping to escape before things completely fall apart. We are going to be caught up in the air to meet the Lord in the clouds, but when this happens we will not be stepping off of the playing field in defeat but in total victory. The Holy Spirit is with us now, still working to lead us into financial triumph.
According to the word that I covenanted with you when you came out of Egypt, so My Spirit remains among you; do not fear! (Haggai 2:5)
God made a covenant with Abraham (in Genesis 15) that spoke of his descendants coming out of Egypt with great possessions. In the days of Haggai the prophet we see the Holy Spirit will release an end time glory that will surpass the glory of former revivals and former financial blessings. The kingdom of Israel was at its zenith under the reign of Solomon, who established such prosperity that silver was considered to have no value.
All King Solomon’s drinking vessels were gold, and all the vessels of the House of the Forest of Lebanon were pure gold. Not one was silver, for this was accounted as nothing in the days of Solomon (2 Chronicles 9:20).
The Lord is bringing the church back to the gold standard of winning in finances. The reign of Solomon was an example of where the wisdom of God can carry the church. The Holy Spirit will release the wisdom for investing, buying, selling, and other strategies to establish prosperity for the church. Angels will be sent to convey the will of God concerning what, where, when, and how to invest. As we work with the angels, we will surge into new levels of prosperity.
For thus says the Lord of hosts: “Once more 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 2:6-9).
