Whole Again: The Book of Haggai
SCRIPTURE:
Haggai 1:5-11
5 Now this is what the Lord Almighty says: “Give careful thought to your ways.
6 You have planted much, but harvested little. You eat, but never have enough. You drink, but never have your fill. You put on clothes, but are not warm. You earn wages, only to put them in a purse with holes in it.”
7 This is what the Lord Almighty says: “Give careful thought to your ways.
8 Go up into the mountains and bring down timber and build my house, so that I may take pleasure in it and be honored,” says the Lord.
9 “You expected much, but see, it turned out to be little. What you brought home, I blew away. Why?” declares the Lord Almighty. “Because of my house, which remains a ruin, while each of you is busy with your own house.
10 Therefore, because of you the heavens have withheld their dew and the earth its crops.
11 I called for a drought on the fields and the mountains, on the grain, the new wine, the olive oil and everything else the ground produces, on people and livestock, and on all the labor of your hands.”
DIRECTION
This week we will explore Haggai’s compelling invitation to "consider your ways" Haggai is asking us to consider how our priorities act as a mirror to who we are, revealing how our neglect of God's priorities leads to spiritual drought and unfulfillment. Let’s encourage our people to assess the foundations of their priorities , identifying where they’ve drifted from God's plan. We want to challenge them to recognize the futility of pursuing satisfaction apart from God's will for their lives.
