    First Things First! (Haggai)Initial Words {279}

    HAGGAIS MESSAGE IS simple:What are our priorities, and why is it

    important to get them right?

    doing always the Lords will.

    First Things First! (Haggai)1. First and Second Sermons

    Haggai 1:9 NKJV YE LOOKED FOR much, but indeed

    it came to little; and when you

    brought it home, I blew it away.Why? says the Lord of hosts.

    Because of My house that is in

    ruins, while every one of you runs to

    his own house.

    1. First and Second Sermon1st: Planting Much, Harvesting Little {280}

    THE TEMPLE WAS neglected andwell-nigh forsaken. The people...

    strove to attain temporal property,

    butwork as they might they did notprosper.

    God bestowed upon them the fruitsof field and gardenbut becausethey had used these bountiful gifts

    so selfishly, the blessings were

    1. First and Second Sermon1st: Planting Much, Harvesting Little {280}

    God could not be honored properlyas long as His house sat in ruins. Thetemple was a visible reminder to the

    whole world that the Sovereign Lordis God of heaven and earth. Their

    attitude toward the temple revealeda deeper spiritual problem: their lossof the sense of their mission as the

    remnant people of the Lord.

    1. First and Second Sermon2nd: Gods Greatest Promise {281}

    The message is instantly obeyed bythe leaders and the remnant people.

    In less than five years the temple

    is completed.While the kingdom of God cannot be

    identified with a material building,the book of Haggai is a reminderthat God sometimes uses material

    things, such as buildings, for spiritual

    1. First and Second Sermon2nd: Gods Greatest Promise {281}

    Haggai now could deliver a new wordfrom the Lord. I am with you. As soon as the people decided to

    obey the Lord, the messages ofreproof were replaced by words of

    encouragement.The assurance of Gods presencegave them the promise of all other

    blessings.

    First Things First! (Haggai)2. Third Sermon

    Haggai 2:7-9 NKJV

    AND THEY SHALL come to the Desire

    of All Nations, and I will fill thistemple with glory. The glory of thislatter temple shall be greater than of

    the former

    and in this place will I give peace.

    2. Third SermonDo Not Fear {282}

    HAGGAI ASKED THE elders how thetemples current state compared to

    its appearance before the exile.

    Clearly, the present appearance didnot match the former glory. People

    may have been discouraged becausethey had no chance of duplicatingthe splendor of Solomons temple

    that once stood in the same place.

    2. Third SermonDo Not Fear {282}

    The prophet encouraged the peopleto keep working because Gods Spirit

    was with them. Be strong! Do not

    fear! The prophet declared that, inthe end, the Lord would make the

    temples latter glory greater than itsformer glory. That became true,however, only because One greater

    than the temple had come.

    It would be a different type of glorybecause this temple would be

    honored by the presence of Jesus,in the flesh.

    In this very building would appear,

    in the fullness of time, the Desire ofall nations as the Teacher andSaviour of mankind. PK 577

    3. Fourth and Fifth Sermons4th: Give Careful Thought {289}

    WILL CONSECRATED MEAT bringholiness to the things it touches? (vs12). NO.

    Will an unclean person havingcontact with a dead corpse defile

    things around himself? YES.Sin automatically spreads around us;therefore, if we want something

    good to happen around us, it must

    Only God can produce holiness in apersons life, because He is the only

    source of holiness.People, things, and time can becomeholy only as they are in relationship

    with God.

    3. Fourth and Fifth Sermons5th: The Lords Signet Ring {284}

    Zerubbabel would be the Lordssignet ring, an object that provides

    evidence of royal authority and

    ownership.Although Zerubbabels role is key in

    building the temple, he did not fulfillall the promises given to him by Godthrough Haggai. Gospel writers point

    to Jesus as the final fulfillment.

    First Things First! (Haggai)Final Words {349}

    THE LACK OF temporal prosperitywas the result of a neglect to put

    Gods interest first. Had the

    Israelites honored God, had theyshown Him due respect and

    courtesy, by making the building ofHis house their first work, they

    would have invited His presence and

    blessing PK 574
