Haggai 2:5-7
5 ‘According to the word that I covenanted with you when you came out of Egypt, so My Spirit remains among you; do not fear!’ 6 “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; 7 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.

>>Hebrews 12:27-28. 27 Now this, “Yet once more,” indicates the removal of those things that are being shaken, as of things that are made, that the things which cannot be shaken may remain.
28 Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us have grace, by which we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear.
Since God is within us, we do not need to fear the shakeup to come when judgment grips the world. If only others would come to their true desire, to the Lord who made us all! Since we have a coming kingdom begun in us now, we can serve our Lord His way, with reverence and grace above all that drives us to Him and others. We are shaken in the world, but not stirred in Christ.
