Today... 'Desired Of All Nations' Poem by Roy Allen

Today... 'Desired Of All Nations'



In Abraham all nations God again will bless
Through His Only Son The Lord of Righteousness
Heaven and earth once more He is about to shake
As the Desired of all Nations His place shall take

The earth has now been shaken by God's Holy Word
And it's values are turned upside down by the Lord
For God's house is filled with songs of worship and praise
As the redeemed of mankind their great anthem raise

The gospel throughout the world has now been made known
And Christ has ascended to sit upon the throne
Heaven and earth are filled with His glory and peace
Praise to the Desired of all nations will not cease

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Haggai 2: 6-9
'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.'

The Bible calls You by many names
each one giving a glimpse of Your glory.
Like a cut diamond radiating in the sun
with every facet depicting an aspect
of Your Divine Nature.
Today I have thought of You as
'The Desired of all nations'
