The Book of Haggai

Greetings!

As we begin our 21 day consecration, I invite you to meditate on a small book in the Old Testament entitled “Haggai”. He was a prophet whose written ministry of two chapters only covers approximately four months. But wow, what an important four months those were! It was Haggai who the Lord used to accelerate the building of God’s Temple which had laid dormant for approximately 16 years.

Has God given you plans and dreams which have laid dormant for months, maybe even years? Though it was written in 520B.C., I believe this book still speaks to us today. At some point in our lives, we all need encouragement! Come join me starting tomorrow for the next 19 days as we journey through this book of God’s first post-exilic prophet. It may be small in its’ number of verses (38), but it is large in its ability to energize for your heart.
