Haggai 2:4-5

In January, Nancy began recording a series of 260 half-hour programs to take Revive Our Hearts listeners on journey through the Bible, from Genesis to Revelation. Our prayer is that as the episodes are recorded, we are able to work with our global partners to translate them into many languages. Thank you for your faithful prayers for Nancy. We thought you might enjoy an inside look at one of these programs. This clip is still a rough edit—but we couldn’t wait for you to get a glimpse of this powerful teaching. Nancy’s desire is to do all that she can to get women cherishing, soaking in, and living out God's precious, powerful Word. As she prepares for each recording day and looks at the schedule ahead, she feels utterly incapable of completing this assignment. She has been meditating on Haggai 2:4–5: “Be strong. Work! For I am with you. My spirit is present among you; don’t be afraid.” Wisdom, discipline, and stamina will be necessary for the days ahead. Thank you for praying as she continues to take one step at a time, leaning hard on God.…

In the wake of trials, we look around & see destruction. But there is a peace that surpasses understanding & God wants to restore His people.…

– Staff Meeting on February 20, the Commission on the General Conference made a decision to further postpone the 2020 General Conference until August 29 – September 6, 2022 in Minneapolis, Minn When God’s people were exiled and in bondage the prophet Haggai encouraged them to return to their homes in Jerusalem, to remain faithful to the Lord, obedient to his words, and hopeful for God’s promise of a new beginning. (Haggai 1:1) This is what the Lord Almighty says: “These people say, ‘The time has not yet come to rebuild the Lord’s house.’” (Haggai 1:2) Because of their sin, God’s people are not called “my people” but “these people.” Are we still “his people?” Or has our sin and rebellion costs us the intimacy and fellowship with God we once enjoyed (Isaiah 59:2)? Until now, the vine and the fig tree, the pomegranate and the olive tree have not borne fruit.
