God’s stored up wealth
“The One who builds His upper chambers in the heavens And has founded His vaulted dome over the earth, He who calls for the waters of the sea And pours them out on the face of the earth, The Lord is His name.”
Amos 9:6 NASB1995

God’s chamber is in heaven. His footrest is here on the earth (Isaiah 66:1). Then also God has founded a vaulted dome over the earth. We can explain this away as the atmosphere above us. Some people might use this as a reason for flat earth. But I think it might be bigger than that.
The Hebrew word that we translate as the vaulted dome is used as a bunch of hyssop, a band of brothers, and ties that are loosed. So this vaulted dome is a place that has gathered something together. When I think of a vault I think of wealth storage. Could it be that under this dome God stores up His wealth? Think of a military bunker where He would keep His spoils of war.
“I will shake all the nations; and they will come with the wealth of all nations, and I will fill this house with glory,’ says the Lord of hosts. ‘The silver is Mine and the gold is Mine,’ declares the Lord of hosts. ‘The latter glory of this house will be greater than the former,’ says the Lord of hosts, ‘and in this place I will give peace,’ declares the Lord of hosts.”

“A good man leaves an inheritance to his children’s children, And the wealth of the sinner is stored up for the righteous.”
Proverbs 13:22 NASB1995

God has been storing up the wealth of the earth for His people. He has poured some out but in the last days, I believe He is going to release all of it upon all of His children to build a better economy than we are living under right now.
Will we be found righteous in His sight? Only by the blood of Jesus applied to our sin-filled past.
“You shall take a bunch of hyssop and dip it in the blood which is in the basin, and apply some of the blood that is in the basin to the lintel and the two doorposts; and none of you shall go outside the door of his house until morning.”
