Unlocking the Old Testament Part 56 - Haggai

While some prophets had a lifetime of prophesying, David Pawson says that Haggai spoke for only 3 months. He came after the exile, so his job was to encourage Jews who had returned. Not all Jews returned to Israel as they had become established in Babylon. The returnees had problems because the land had not been cultivated for 70 years, the walls had been torn down, there was opposition from the Samaritans and financial support was withdrawn so this was heavy going for them. Haggai spoke to them 18 years after they had returned, and he provoked them to rethink their attitudes. They had stopped building the temple because money was short, but Haggai showed them that money was short because they had stopped putting God first. When they resumed the building, there was still a drought - because they had not put their lives right with God. They responded well and Haggai encouraged them to be strong and not afraid. And eventually financial support came to them from Persia again. Haggai gave them a promise from God that His glory would fill the temple.
David also has a book on this series find out more here: www.davidpawson.co.uk/search/...

    Wonderful teaching remind us to put God first at all times, Haggai is a short book but very impactful. During this moment of COVID-19, Social upheaval, and race for Presidency, stay focus on what's really important Our relationship in Christ Jesus and running the race that is set before Us; Thank God through Jesus Christ for Loving Us so much that he gave His Son to redeem Us back to himself through the Blood of Jesus Christ; Death, burial and Resurrection❤️

    "It's not staying alive or making a living, its living right And living for God." That's a powerful statement he ended with this sermon. The practical lessons this preacher man comes up with out of a small book of the OT is fascinating.

    Another great teaching. I always thought the reason the 2nd Temple had greater Glory than the first, Haggai 2:9, is because Jesus was in this Temple during His time on the earth.

    Its also good to read the Present with Religion, a book for free on the internet.The book is about the truth of life and it shows the full picture of life for the firts time so that you may stop being deceived by the world and be able to follow the steps of Jesus and other prophets to Heaven.Knowing the truth is the key factor in our salvation.We must know the truth and live in it and and change ourselves according to it in order to be saved.There is no other way to our salvation.With the knowledge of the truth there comes true repentance which means changing our minds and also true obediance to God ' s law and finally our sanctification which is a lifelong process.And Gos in His mercy will give us His wonderful grace which is the time and ability to make the proper change.Only in this way will be able to attain our eternal salvation.Our task is to find this narrow gate that leads to God and do it quickly and stay on it till the end no matter what.Then and only then we will be saved.
