A House in Ruins

Haggai 1 & 2
“Why are you living in luxurious houses while My house lies in ruins?” Haggai 1:4 NLT Does God have issue with us having nice things? No. Does He give us these nice things to watch us squander it on selfish living? Absolutely not. We are to be trustworthy, honorable stewards with what He gives us.
“…’Now get to work, for I am with you,’ says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies. ‘My Spirit remains among you, just as I promised when you came out of Egypt. So do not be afraid.’” Haggai 2:4-5 NLT
Then versus now, details may have changed, God has not: “That is how it is with this people and this nation, says the Lord. Everything they do and everything they offer is defiled by their sin.” Haggai 2:14 NLT
