Living Wholeheartedly for God's Presence // Haggai 1

April 27, 2025 | John Durham

Haggai 1:1-4

Haggai 1:1 Disappointment can feel defeating, but God is not done with your story!
Haggai 1:2-4 Do I spend more time building up my kingdom or God’s Kingdom? 

Haggai 1:5-6

HAGGAI 1:7-11 God will take away things from us so that our hearts don’t belong to the world, but to Him!
The worst thing you can do in your life is to be totally committed to it.
CS Lewis, It would seem that Our Lord finds our desires not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased.

___________ keeps me from consistently enjoying the Presence of God in my life.

Haggai 1:12-15

V. 12 Obeyed God’s Word
V. 12 Feared/worshipped the Lord
V. 13 Reminded of God’s covenant with them
V. 14 Then the behavior changed.
