OLD TESTAMENT | MINOR PROPHETS
The Book of Haggai
THE ENCOURAGING PROPHET
The book of Haggai is set in the time after the Israelites had been in exile, and Zerubbabel is called back to Jerusalem to build the temple. Because of their enemies, the building stopped for seventeen years, until Haggai steps in and stirs them again to begin to rebuild. Read his words of encouragement that saw the Second Temple in Jerusalem built and the remnant return.

As you read your Bible, there will be times when you are just eating your vegetables, meaning there will be times when we read the chapters without any feeling of personal revelation. It’s just the straight, fresh Word of God going into our lives like eating a full plate of vegetables, providing nutrients and building us for the future.
