Hag 1:14 “And the LORD stirred up the spirit… of all the remnant of the people; and they came and did work in the house of the LORD of hosts, their God.”
Rarely do we see in the scriptures a prophet’s message produce such a quick response. Within (23) days after Haggai’s message, they returned to building the Temple. Are we as quick to respond to the Word of God for our lives? Do we respond to the Holy Spirit’s revelation or resist it? God’s Word does not exist for the sake of our enjoying Biblical stories; biblical stories exist for the sake of our enjoying God. I make this point because there is great purpose and narrative to God’s Word, and it points to man’s need.
The Word of God is not just to be heard or repeated; it’s to be breathed in, lived by and acted on… HSAY
