August 29, 2015 Today's reading: Isaiah ch. 65 Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, This people say, The time is not come, the time that the LORD'S house should be built. Haggai 1:2 The Jews who returned from the Babylonian captivity had started the rebuilding of the temple. Soon, however, the enemy's resistance became evident and they gave up their good intention. The work rested for several years. Instead, they devoted themselves to erecting their own houses. Then God sent the Prophet Haggai to them with a message for His people. It began with the words of today's verse. Was the people's estimation correct, that the time had not come for the house of God to be built again? That cannot be so under any circumstances: God Himself had given the express order to the Persian king Cyrus that the temple in Jerusalem should be rebuilt (cf. ). So what caused the people's erroneous judgment? They no longer trusted the sure and unchangeable Word of God. They took the prevalent circumstances into account and judged accordingly. That signifies a sheer lack of faith! Let us examine ourselves! Doesn't the thought sometimes arise in our hearts that times have changed so that we need to adapt ourselves to them? Times do indeed change, but God's principles never do. And there is equally for us the danger that we might make unpleasant situations an excuse for giving way to the inclinations of our hearts and neglecting the things of the Lord in order to pursue our own interests. What a good thing it is when the Lord reprimands us! |

Open Heavens for Sunday, March 2, 2014 by Pastor E.A Adeboye NEGATIVE LIVING Life comprises of positive and negative elements. As a matter of necessity, it is not good for someone to opt for negative living. The fact that Jesus Christ was destined to die for the sin of the whole world does not exonerate Judas Iscariot from the evil that led him to the idea of betraying the King of Glory....More |
