  • Pastor matt hagee: have you ever been tasked
  • 00:00:18.345 --> 00:00:19.013
  • Ever been tasked with something that
  • 00:00:19.080 --> 00:00:19.780
  • With something that you thought was just
  • 00:00:19.847 --> 00:00:21.282
  • You thought was just absolutely beyond your ability
  • 00:00:21.348 --> 00:00:23.417
  • Absolutely beyond your ability to do, impossible
  • 00:00:23.484 --> 00:00:25.886
  • To do, impossible some would say?
  • 00:00:25.953 --> 00:00:28.155
  • Some would say? the resources that
  • 00:00:28.222 --> 00:00:29.090
  • The resources that were required,
  • 00:00:29.156 --> 00:00:29.957
  • Were required, you didn't know where
  • 00:00:30.024 --> 00:00:30.758
  • You didn't know where you would find them.
  • 00:00:30.825 --> 00:00:31.725
  • You would find them. the time that it
  • 00:00:31.792 --> 00:00:32.493

  • 00:00:32.560 --> 00:00:33.327
  • Would take to do it, you didn't know if you had it.
  • 00:00:33.394 --> 00:00:35.396
  • You didn't know if you had it. you didn't even really
  • 00:00:35.463 --> 00:00:36.730
  • You didn't even really understand where to begin
  • 00:00:36.797 --> 00:00:38.232
  • Understand where to begin because the problem
  • 00:00:38.299 --> 00:00:39.033
  • Because the problem was so large.
  • 00:00:39.100 --> 00:00:40.534
  • Was so large. then add to all of those details
  • 00:00:40.601 --> 00:00:42.970
  • Then add to all of those details the fear that you
  • 00:00:43.037 --> 00:00:43.771
  • The fear that you have in any endeavor that,
  • 00:00:43.838 --> 00:00:46.207
  • Have in any endeavor that, "what if it doesn't succeed,
  • 00:00:46.273 --> 00:00:47.408
  • "what if it doesn't succeed, what if i fail?"
  • 00:00:47.475 --> 00:00:48.943
  • What if i fail?" and then beyond that,
  • 00:00:49.009 --> 00:00:50.644
  • And then beyond that, "who on earth is
  • 00:00:50.711 --> 00:00:51.779
  • "who on earth is going to help me?"
  • 00:00:51.846 --> 00:00:54.415
  • Going to help me?" this is exactly where we find
  • 00:00:54.482 --> 00:00:56.784
  • This is exactly where we find the inhabitants of the city
  • 00:00:56.851 --> 00:00:58.319
  • The inhabitants of the city of jerusalem
  • 00:00:58.385 --> 00:00:59.887

  • The word of the lord. i asked our production
  • 00:01:05.092 --> 00:01:05.926
  • I asked our production department to create a graphic
  • 00:01:05.993 --> 00:01:07.895
  • Department to create a graphic that would kind of help us
  • 00:01:07.962 --> 00:01:09.263
  • That would kind of help us understand where we are
  • 00:01:09.330 --> 00:01:10.498
  • Understand where we are in israel's history.
  • 00:01:10.564 --> 00:01:12.266
  • In israel's history. there's three nations that
  • 00:01:12.333 --> 00:01:13.868

  • The warnings of prophets like isaiah and jeremiah.
  • 00:01:37.224 --> 00:01:39.059
  • Like isaiah and jeremiah. and they warned them,
  • 00:01:39.126 --> 00:01:40.294
  • And they warned them, "if you do not repent,
  • 00:01:40.361 --> 00:01:41.695
  • "if you do not repent, if you do not quit

  • Following false gods, if you do not quit
  • 00:01:44.198 --> 00:01:45.132
  • If you do not quit bowing down to idols,
  • 00:01:45.199 --> 00:01:46.433
  • Bowing down to idols, then there is going to
  • 00:01:46.500 --> 00:01:47.735
  • Then there is going to arise another nation,
  • 00:01:47.801 --> 00:01:49.770
  • Arise another nation, and they are going to come
  • 00:01:49.837 --> 00:01:51.138

  • But instead of finding the capital city where david
  • 00:03:35.876 --> 00:03:37.111
  • The capital city where david and solomon set on their throne,
  • 00:03:37.177 --> 00:03:39.713

  • There's so much work to do. where do you begin?
  • 00:03:47.087 --> 00:03:47.988
  • Where do you begin? what if we fail?
  • 00:03:48.055 --> 00:03:49.590
  • What if we fail? who on earth

  • Joshua and zerubbabel return with these exiles,
  • 00:03:54.495 --> 00:03:55.963
  • Return with these exiles, and as they begin
  • 00:03:56.030 --> 00:03:57.097
  • And as they begin to do the work,
  • 00:03:57.164 --> 00:03:57.965
  • To do the work, they start to get discouraged
  • 00:03:58.032 --> 00:03:59.667
  • They start to get discouraged and they start to get depressed,
  • 00:03:59.733 --> 00:04:00.901
  • And they start to get depressed, because they recognize that
  • 00:04:00.968 --> 00:04:02.069
  • Because they recognize that this is an overwhelming task.
  • 00:04:02.136 --> 00:04:05.339
  • This is an overwhelming task. and so in their discouragement
  • 00:04:05.406 --> 00:04:06.607
  • And so in their discouragement and their depression,
  • 00:04:06.674 --> 00:04:07.541
  • And their depression, they get distracted.
  • 00:04:07.608 --> 00:04:10.311
  • They get distracted. this is when god sends
  • 00:04:10.377 --> 00:04:11.545
  • This is when god sends his prophet haggai
  • 00:04:11.612 --> 00:04:12.713
  • His prophet haggai with the word that we read
  • 00:04:12.780 --> 00:04:13.681
  • With the word that we read from the second chapter.
  • 00:04:13.747 --> 00:04:15.082
  • From the second chapter. he looks at the discouraged
  • 00:04:15.149 --> 00:04:16.150
  • He looks at the discouraged souls in jerusalem
  • 00:04:16.216 --> 00:04:18.185
  • Souls in jerusalem and he brings them a message
  • 00:04:18.252 --> 00:04:19.687
  • And he brings them a message that encourages them
  • 00:04:19.753 --> 00:04:20.921
  • That encourages them in their moment of need.
  • 00:04:20.988 --> 00:04:22.990
  • In their moment of need. throughout these prophecies,
  • 00:04:23.057 --> 00:04:24.058
  • Throughout these prophecies, we read about very specific
  • 00:04:24.124 --> 00:04:25.559
  • We read about very specific names, joshua and zerubbabel.
  • 00:04:25.626 --> 00:04:27.695
  • Names, joshua and zerubbabel. but let's not stop there
  • 00:04:27.761 --> 00:04:29.063
  • But let's not stop there because the lord tells
  • 00:04:29.129 --> 00:04:30.097
  • Because the lord tells them very clearly.
  • 00:04:30.164 --> 00:04:31.432
  • Them very clearly. he says, "now you be strong,
  • 00:04:31.498 --> 00:04:33.334
  • He says, "now you be strong, zerubbabel...
  • 00:04:33.400 --> 00:04:34.868
  • Zerubbabel... and you be strong, joshua...
  • 00:04:34.935 --> 00:04:37.504
  • And you be strong, joshua... and you be strong,
  • 00:04:37.571 --> 00:04:39.173
  • And you be strong, all you people of the land."
  • 00:04:39.239 --> 00:04:43.877
  • All you people of the land." who's included?
  • 00:04:43.944 --> 00:04:45.145
  • Who's included? all you people of the land.
  • 00:04:45.212 --> 00:04:49.416
  • All you people of the land. so don't think for a moment
  • 00:04:49.483 --> 00:04:50.851
  • So don't think for a moment that you get to listen in today
  • 00:04:50.918 --> 00:04:52.853
  • That you get to listen in today and not receive the word.
  • 00:04:52.920 --> 00:04:55.255
  • And not receive the word. you can't eavesdrop on this.
  • 00:04:55.322 --> 00:04:57.358
  • You can't eavesdrop on this. this isn't for them.
  • 00:04:57.424 --> 00:04:59.026
  • This isn't for them. this is for you.
  • 00:04:59.093 --> 00:05:02.096
  • This is for you. there are times when god
  • 00:05:02.162 --> 00:05:03.197
  • There are times when god leaves no room for doubt
  • 00:05:03.263 --> 00:05:04.832
  • Leaves no room for doubt and he points the finger
  • 00:05:04.898 --> 00:05:06.033
  • And he points the finger right into your soul.
  • 00:05:06.100 --> 00:05:07.167
  • Right into your soul. and he says, "this isn't for
  • 00:05:07.234 --> 00:05:08.469
  • And he says, "this isn't for anyone, this isn't for someone.
  • 00:05:08.535 --> 00:05:10.904
  • Anyone, this isn't for someone. this is for you, my child."
  • 00:05:10.971 --> 00:05:14.007
  • This is for you, my child." who's he talking to?
  • 00:05:14.074 --> 00:05:15.709
  • Who's he talking to? you.
  • 00:05:15.776 --> 00:05:17.778
  • You. and here's what he has to say,
  • 00:05:17.845 --> 00:05:20.013
  • And here's what he has to say, "be strong and work;
  • 00:05:20.080 --> 00:05:23.617
  • "be strong and work; for i am with you."
  • 00:05:23.684 --> 00:05:29.356
  • For i am with you." now that's simple.
  • 00:05:29.423 --> 00:05:31.759
  • Now that's simple. but how many of you know that
  • 00:05:31.825 --> 00:05:32.593
  • But how many of you know that simple ain't always easy?
  • 00:05:32.659 --> 00:05:37.398
  • Simple ain't always easy? i mean, if you think simple
  • 00:05:37.464 --> 00:05:38.499
  • I mean, if you think simple is easy, try marriage.
  • 00:05:38.565 --> 00:05:39.533
  • [laughter]
  • 00:05:40.334 --> 00:05:42.035
  • I'm just gonna leave that alone.
  • 00:05:45.439 --> 00:05:46.473
  • I'm just gonna leave that alone. just let it set.
  • 00:05:46.540 --> 00:05:48.275
  • Just let it set. god'll use it.
  • 00:05:48.342 --> 00:05:51.945
  • God'll use it. "be strong and work,
  • 00:05:52.012 --> 00:05:55.182
  • "be strong and work, for i am with you,"
  • 00:05:55.249 --> 00:05:57.484
  • For i am with you," says the lord of hosts.
  • 00:05:57.551 --> 00:05:59.820
  • Says the lord of hosts. you see, this word came to a
  • 00:05:59.887 --> 00:06:01.355
  • You see, this word came to a people who returned to a city
  • 00:06:01.422 --> 00:06:03.957
  • People who returned to a city that was lying in ruin,
  • 00:06:04.024 --> 00:06:06.059
  • That was lying in ruin, and their responsibility
  • 00:06:06.126 --> 00:06:07.194
  • And their responsibility was to rebuild it.
  • 00:06:07.261 --> 00:06:08.862
  • Was to rebuild it. and when they began to rebuild
  • 00:06:08.929 --> 00:06:09.797
  • And when they began to rebuild it, they met resistance,
  • 00:06:09.863 --> 00:06:11.265
  • It, they met resistance, and when the resistance started,
  • 00:06:11.331 --> 00:06:12.866
  • And when the resistance started, they allowed the resistance not
  • 00:06:12.933 --> 00:06:14.168
  • They allowed the resistance not only to bring discouragement
  • 00:06:14.234 --> 00:06:15.636
  • Only to bring discouragement but to start a time
  • 00:06:15.702 --> 00:06:16.670
  • But to start a time of depression.
  • 00:06:16.737 --> 00:06:17.538
  • Of depression. and then they decided
  • 00:06:17.604 --> 00:06:18.605
  • And then they decided that it wasn't time
  • 00:06:18.672 --> 00:06:20.140
  • That it wasn't time that we should build
  • 00:06:20.207 --> 00:06:21.041
  • That we should build the house of the lord.
  • 00:06:21.108 --> 00:06:22.042
  • The house of the lord. and so they took a break.
  • 00:06:22.109 --> 00:06:24.378
  • And so they took a break. and what they did during the
  • 00:06:24.445 --> 00:06:25.179
  • And what they did during the break is they got distracted.
  • 00:06:25.245 --> 00:06:26.680
  • Break is they got distracted. they started building
  • 00:06:26.747 --> 00:06:27.648
  • They started building their own houses.
  • 00:06:27.714 --> 00:06:29.650
  • Their own houses. have you ever known somebody
  • 00:06:29.716 --> 00:06:30.651
  • Have you ever known somebody who started out to do something
  • 00:06:30.717 --> 00:06:31.785
  • Who started out to do something for god and instead
  • 00:06:31.852 --> 00:06:32.920
  • For god and instead of doing god's thing,
  • 00:06:32.986 --> 00:06:34.087
  • Of doing god's thing, they started doing their thing?
  • 00:06:34.154 --> 00:06:36.356
  • They started doing their thing? and they said, "oh, sometime,
  • 00:06:36.423 --> 00:06:37.491
  • And they said, "oh, sometime, someday, i'll get back
  • 00:06:37.558 --> 00:06:38.792
  • Someday, i'll get back to doing what god
  • 00:06:38.859 --> 00:06:39.726
  • To doing what god called me to do.
  • 00:06:39.793 --> 00:06:40.761
  • Called me to do. it's just not the right
  • 00:06:40.828 --> 00:06:41.528
  • It's just not the right time right now.
  • 00:06:41.595 --> 00:06:42.963
  • Time right now. i mean, the door is not open,
  • 00:06:43.030 --> 00:06:45.566
  • I mean, the door is not open, the mountain has not moved."
  • 00:06:45.632 --> 00:06:46.867
  • The mountain has not moved." they'll come up with all
  • 00:06:46.934 --> 00:06:47.835
  • They'll come up with all kinds of spiritual platitudes.
  • 00:06:47.901 --> 00:06:48.969
  • Kinds of spiritual platitudes. but at the end of the day,
  • 00:06:49.036 --> 00:06:50.204
  • But at the end of the day, if you know what god wants you
  • 00:06:50.270 --> 00:06:51.572
  • If you know what god wants you to do and you're not doing that,
  • 00:06:51.638 --> 00:06:52.906
  • To do and you're not doing that, that's not called delay.
  • 00:06:52.973 --> 00:06:54.208
  • That's not called delay. that's called disobedience.
  • 00:06:54.274 --> 00:06:58.111
  • That's called disobedience. and so god sends haggai,
  • 00:06:58.178 --> 00:06:59.480
  • And so god sends haggai, and the first prophecy
  • 00:06:59.546 --> 00:07:00.514
  • And the first prophecy that haggai brings
  • 00:07:00.581 --> 00:07:01.415
  • That haggai brings in chapter one
  • 00:07:01.482 --> 00:07:02.382
  • In chapter one is what i call a wake-up call.
  • 00:07:02.449 --> 00:07:04.985
  • Is what i call a wake-up call. and here's what
  • 00:07:05.052 --> 00:07:05.652
  • And here's what the wake-up call says.
  • 00:07:05.719 --> 00:07:08.088
  • The wake-up call says. it's found in haggai 1:3-8.
  • 00:07:08.155 --> 00:07:11.825
  • It's found in haggai 1:3-8. and in haggai 1:3-8,
  • 00:07:11.892 --> 00:07:13.627
  • And in haggai 1:3-8, the lord says to these people,
  • 00:07:13.694 --> 00:07:15.095
  • The lord says to these people, he says, "how is it that you
  • 00:07:15.162 --> 00:07:16.497
  • He says, "how is it that you find time to build your house,
  • 00:07:16.563 --> 00:07:18.832
  • Find time to build your house, but my house lies in ruin?"
  • 00:07:18.899 --> 00:07:22.736
  • But my house lies in ruin?" for 16 years, they let this
  • 00:07:22.803 --> 00:07:25.806
  • For 16 years, they let this building project sit.
  • 00:07:25.873 --> 00:07:28.609
  • Building project sit. now if you
  • 00:07:28.675 --> 00:07:29.476
  • Now if you wanna take a break,
  • 00:07:29.543 --> 00:07:31.478
  • Wanna take a break, six weeks maybe.
  • 00:07:31.545 --> 00:07:34.648
  • Six weeks maybe. but when you take 16 years off,
  • 00:07:34.715 --> 00:07:39.186
  • But when you take 16 years off, you're not delaying,
  • 00:07:39.253 --> 00:07:40.254
  • You're not delaying, you've canceled.
  • 00:07:40.320 --> 00:07:43.156
  • You've canceled. and here's what god says,
  • 00:07:43.223 --> 00:07:45.526
  • And here's what god says, "because you are doing your
  • 00:07:45.592 --> 00:07:46.493
  • "because you are doing your thing and not my thing,
  • 00:07:46.560 --> 00:07:49.129
  • Thing and not my thing, you are working hard,

  • You are working hard, but you are not satisfied.

  • You are giving everything you can to earn wages,

  • You can to earn wages, but you still can't get ahead."
  • 00:07:55.569 --> 00:07:57.104
  • But you still can't get ahead." the specific language says
  • 00:07:57.170 --> 00:07:58.739
  • The specific language says in verse six of chapter one,
  • 00:07:58.805 --> 00:08:01.008
  • In verse six of chapter one, "you've sown much but

  • Does that sound like any nation you've ever seen?
  • 00:08:22.563 --> 00:08:24.865

  • And decide that this isn't a good thing.
  • 00:10:31.992 --> 00:10:33.994
  • Isn't a good thing. they said, "if these people

  • They're building a rebellious temple.
  • 00:12:02.315 --> 00:12:03.483
  • A rebellious temple. they're gonna build
  • 00:12:03.550 --> 00:12:04.384
  • They're gonna build a rebellious city.
  • 00:12:04.451 --> 00:12:05.585
  • A rebellious city. and once they get all of this
  • 00:12:05.652 --> 00:12:06.553
  • And once they get all of this rebellious stuff put together,
  • 00:12:06.620 --> 00:12:08.488
  • Rebellious stuff put together, then they're gonna

  • 00:12:09.322 --> 00:12:10.290
  • Rebel against you. and once they rebel against you,
  • 00:12:10.357 --> 00:12:11.591
  • And once they rebel against you, they're gonna quit paying

  • They're gonna quit paying taxes, imagine that.
  • 00:12:12.392 --> 00:12:15.662
  • Taxes, imagine that. and then you are
  • 00:12:15.729 --> 00:12:16.463
  • And then you are gonna lose face.
  • 00:12:16.530 --> 00:12:17.264
  • Gonna lose face. you are gonna look
  • 00:12:17.330 --> 00:12:18.131
  • You are gonna look bad in the public eye.

  • Bad in the public eye. and when that happens,

  • And when that happens, some other nation is going

  • Some other nation is going to come and take over your
  • 00:12:22.803 --> 00:12:23.870
  • To come and take over your kingdom, all because you let
  • 00:12:23.937 --> 00:12:25.605
  • Kingdom, all because you let this little church
  • 00:12:25.672 --> 00:12:26.740
  • This little church right here get built."
  • 00:12:26.807 --> 00:12:27.908
  • Right here get built." have you ever noticed how
  • 00:12:27.974 --> 00:12:29.209
  • Have you ever noticed how when those who are against you
  • 00:12:29.276 --> 00:12:30.410
  • When those who are against you start to over exaggerate,
  • 00:12:30.477 --> 00:12:31.578
  • Start to over exaggerate, you become the reason
  • 00:12:31.645 --> 00:12:32.646
  • You become the reason why the whole world
  • 00:12:32.712 --> 00:12:33.446
  • Why the whole world is gonna fall apart?
  • 00:12:33.513 --> 00:12:36.183
  • Is gonna fall apart? i mean, from this
  • 00:12:36.249 --> 00:12:37.350
  • I mean, from this little building project,
  • 00:12:37.417 --> 00:12:38.318
  • Little building project, they make the king believe that
  • 00:12:38.385 --> 00:12:39.986
  • They make the king believe that he's gonna lose everything.
  • 00:12:40.053 --> 00:12:43.824
  • He's gonna lose everything. so this persian king goes
  • 00:12:43.890 --> 00:12:45.392
  • So this persian king goes and he makes a decree
  • 00:12:45.458 --> 00:12:46.359
  • And he makes a decree and he writes the decree
  • 00:12:46.426 --> 00:12:47.360
  • And he writes the decree in ezra chapter four.
  • 00:12:47.427 --> 00:12:49.062
  • In ezra chapter four. and in that decree he says,
  • 00:12:49.129 --> 00:12:50.630
  • And in that decree he says, "anyone who builds this temple
  • 00:12:50.697 --> 00:12:52.732
  • "anyone who builds this temple should be hung on
  • 00:12:52.799 --> 00:12:54.201
  • Should be hung on a stake in his house."
  • 00:12:54.267 --> 00:12:56.937
  • A stake in his house." what does that mean,
  • 00:12:57.003 --> 00:12:57.671
  • What does that mean, that means they're gonna
  • 00:12:57.737 --> 00:12:58.471
  • That means they're gonna take a piece of wood
  • 00:12:58.538 --> 00:12:59.239
  • Take a piece of wood out of the house,
  • 00:12:59.306 --> 00:13:00.040
  • Out of the house, sharpen it to a point
  • 00:13:00.106 --> 00:13:00.807
  • Sharpen it to a point and drop you on it.
  • 00:13:00.874 --> 00:13:02.843
  • And drop you on it. now, how many of you know what
  • 00:13:02.909 --> 00:13:04.044
  • Now, how many of you know what cease and desist sounds like?
  • 00:13:04.110 --> 00:13:07.581
  • Cease and desist sounds like? and then there's
  • 00:13:07.647 --> 00:13:08.281
  • And then there's internal depression.
  • 00:13:08.348 --> 00:13:10.550
  • Internal depression. because when they start
  • 00:13:10.617 --> 00:13:11.351
  • Because when they start this building project,
  • 00:13:11.418 --> 00:13:12.419
  • This building project, they don't have the resources
  • 00:13:12.485 --> 00:13:13.820
  • They don't have the resources that solomon had.
  • 00:13:13.887 --> 00:13:16.189
  • That solomon had. solomon got a
  • 00:13:16.256 --> 00:13:17.090
  • Solomon got a $50 million offering.
  • 00:13:17.157 --> 00:13:19.025
  • [laughter]
  • 00:13:22.529 --> 00:13:24.965
  • Just had to pause
  • 00:13:25.599 --> 00:13:26.199
  • Just had to pause and let that soak.
  • 00:13:26.266 --> 00:13:31.938
  • And let that soak. these guys were just stacking
  • 00:13:32.005 --> 00:13:33.273
  • These guys were just stacking rocks and rubble out of ruins.
  • 00:13:33.340 --> 00:13:37.210
  • Rocks and rubble out of ruins. how are we gonna do this?
  • 00:13:37.277 --> 00:13:40.547
  • How are we gonna do this? there's a story in the
  • 00:13:40.614 --> 00:13:41.381
  • There's a story in the book of ezra, chapter five,
  • 00:13:41.448 --> 00:13:42.716
  • Book of ezra, chapter five, that whenever they came and
  • 00:13:42.782 --> 00:13:43.683
  • That whenever they came and they laid the foundation,
  • 00:13:43.750 --> 00:13:46.219
  • They laid the foundation, that there were two groups
  • 00:13:46.286 --> 00:13:47.187
  • That there were two groups of people that were there
  • 00:13:47.254 --> 00:13:48.255
  • Of people that were there at that dedication service.
  • 00:13:48.321 --> 00:13:49.689
  • At that dedication service. one group was a young group
  • 00:13:49.756 --> 00:13:51.424
  • One group was a young group that was too young
  • 00:13:51.491 --> 00:13:52.492
  • That was too young to remember solomon's temple.
  • 00:13:52.559 --> 00:13:53.793
  • To remember solomon's temple. they'd never seen it,
  • 00:13:53.860 --> 00:13:54.694
  • They'd never seen it, they'd only heard about it.
  • 00:13:54.761 --> 00:13:56.129
  • They'd only heard about it. and another group
  • 00:13:56.196 --> 00:13:56.997
  • And another group was an older group
  • 00:13:57.063 --> 00:13:57.898
  • Was an older group that was actually
  • 00:13:57.964 --> 00:13:58.598
  • That was actually exiled from jerusalem
  • 00:13:58.665 --> 00:14:00.000
  • Exiled from jerusalem who remembered how glorious
  • 00:14:00.066 --> 00:14:01.635
  • Who remembered how glorious solomon's house was.
  • 00:14:01.701 --> 00:14:03.136
  • Solomon's house was. and they said that whenever
  • 00:14:03.203 --> 00:14:04.104
  • And they said that whenever they laid the foundation,
  • 00:14:04.170 --> 00:14:05.972
  • They laid the foundation, that there was a loud cry
  • 00:14:06.039 --> 00:14:07.841
  • That there was a loud cry except the problem was
  • 00:14:07.908 --> 00:14:09.075
  • Except the problem was the young group cried for
  • 00:14:09.142 --> 00:14:10.443
  • The young group cried for joy believing about what god
  • 00:14:10.510 --> 00:14:11.845
  • Joy believing about what god could do, and the old
  • 00:14:11.912 --> 00:14:13.513
  • Could do, and the old group cried in sorrow
  • 00:14:13.580 --> 00:14:15.015
  • Group cried in sorrow because they thought, "it'll
  • 00:14:15.081 --> 00:14:16.049
  • Because they thought, "it'll never be like it used to be."
  • 00:14:16.116 --> 00:14:20.120
  • Never be like it used to be." and so with this divided house,
  • 00:14:20.186 --> 00:14:21.621
  • And so with this divided house, discouragement starts
  • 00:14:21.688 --> 00:14:22.555
  • Discouragement starts to seep in.
  • 00:14:22.622 --> 00:14:24.991
  • To seep in. "we're not gonna
  • 00:14:25.058 --> 00:14:25.825
  • "we're not gonna rebuild this thing,
  • 00:14:25.892 --> 00:14:26.559
  • Rebuild this thing, we're just restacking rocks.
  • 00:14:26.626 --> 00:14:29.262
  • We're just restacking rocks. we're not ever gonna make it
  • 00:14:29.329 --> 00:14:30.297
  • We're not ever gonna make it like it used to be.
  • 00:14:30.363 --> 00:14:32.332
  • Like it used to be. we might as well give up."
  • 00:14:32.399 --> 00:14:34.734
  • We might as well give up." let me ask you this,
  • 00:14:34.801 --> 00:14:35.835
  • Let me ask you this, what in the world
  • 00:14:35.902 --> 00:14:36.469
  • What in the world discourages you?
  • 00:14:36.536 --> 00:14:39.472
  • Discourages you? the voice of others?
  • 00:14:39.539 --> 00:14:41.841
  • The voice of others? what depresses you?
  • 00:14:41.908 --> 00:14:43.910
  • What depresses you? the idea it'll never
  • 00:14:43.977 --> 00:14:44.911
  • The idea it'll never be like it used to be?
  • 00:14:44.978 --> 00:14:47.514
  • Be like it used to be? no matter the source
  • 00:14:47.580 --> 00:14:48.815
  • No matter the source of your depression
  • 00:14:48.882 --> 00:14:49.816
  • Of your depression or your discouragement,
  • 00:14:49.883 --> 00:14:51.051
  • Or your discouragement, god has a word for you.
  • 00:14:51.117 --> 00:14:54.054
  • God has a word for you. be strong and work.
  • 00:14:54.120 --> 00:14:57.557
  • Be strong and work. i'm with you.
  • 00:14:57.624 --> 00:14:59.426
  • I'm with you. so that's the wake-up call.
  • 00:14:59.492 --> 00:15:02.429
  • So that's the wake-up call. and in haggai chapter two,
  • 00:15:02.495 --> 00:15:04.531
  • And in haggai chapter two, we get the shake-up call.
  • 00:15:04.597 --> 00:15:07.200
  • We get the shake-up call. now here's the thing
  • 00:15:07.267 --> 00:15:07.867
  • Now here's the thing about the shake-up call.
  • 00:15:07.934 --> 00:15:10.904
  • About the shake-up call. the wake up is your job.
  • 00:15:10.971 --> 00:15:13.707
  • The wake up is your job. the shake-up is god's job.
  • 00:15:13.773 --> 00:15:17.077
  • The shake-up is god's job. and so many times whenever
  • 00:15:17.143 --> 00:15:18.511
  • And so many times whenever we hear a word from the lord,
  • 00:15:18.578 --> 00:15:20.013
  • We hear a word from the lord, we don't really wanna worry
  • 00:15:20.080 --> 00:15:21.314
  • We don't really wanna worry about what he's asking us to do.
  • 00:15:21.381 --> 00:15:23.149
  • About what he's asking us to do. we start worrying about, well,
  • 00:15:23.216 --> 00:15:24.317
  • We start worrying about, well, what are you going to do?
  • 00:15:24.384 --> 00:15:26.753
  • What are you going to do? don't worry about the shake-up.
  • 00:15:26.820 --> 00:15:27.887
  • Don't worry about the shake-up. that's his job.
  • 00:15:27.954 --> 00:15:29.889
  • That's his job. you just wake up,
  • 00:15:29.956 --> 00:15:32.392
  • You just wake up, so that when he
  • 00:15:32.459 --> 00:15:33.393
  • So that when he starts to shake-up,
  • 00:15:33.460 --> 00:15:35.362
  • Starts to shake-up, you get to benefit
  • 00:15:35.428 --> 00:15:36.429
  • You get to benefit from what he's shaking.
  • 00:15:36.496 --> 00:15:39.299
  • From what he's shaking. because he is going to do
  • 00:15:39.366 --> 00:15:40.367
  • Because he is going to do what he's going to do
  • 00:15:40.433 --> 00:15:41.501
  • What he's going to do no matter what you do.
  • 00:15:41.568 --> 00:15:44.571
  • No matter what you do. now, that's bad english,
  • 00:15:44.637 --> 00:15:45.438
  • Now, that's bad english, but it's good preaching.
  • 00:15:45.505 --> 00:15:46.339
  • [laughter]
  • 00:15:47.107 --> 00:15:49.009
  • And what you need to understand
  • 00:15:49.576 --> 00:15:50.410
  • And what you need to understand is when god starts
  • 00:15:50.477 --> 00:15:51.444
  • Is when god starts to shake things up,
  • 00:15:51.511 --> 00:15:52.612
  • To shake things up, just like he said he would,
  • 00:15:52.679 --> 00:15:54.147
  • Just like he said he would, he's going to shake it,
  • 00:15:54.214 --> 00:15:55.648
  • He's going to shake it, and whenever it starts
  • 00:15:55.715 --> 00:15:56.616
  • And whenever it starts to fall apart,
  • 00:15:56.683 --> 00:15:57.550
  • To fall apart, if you are on his side,
  • 00:15:57.617 --> 00:15:59.185
  • If you are on his side, you get to receive the blessings
  • 00:15:59.252 --> 00:16:01.021
  • You get to receive the blessings of what he's shaking
  • 00:16:01.087 --> 00:16:02.055
  • Of what he's shaking and breaking and moving.
  • 00:16:02.122 --> 00:16:04.190
  • And breaking and moving. but if you haven't woken up,
  • 00:16:04.257 --> 00:16:07.227
  • But if you haven't woken up, then you are just
  • 00:16:07.293 --> 00:16:07.994
  • Then you are just gonna start shaking
  • 00:16:08.061 --> 00:16:08.962
  • Gonna start shaking and wondering what
  • 00:16:09.029 --> 00:16:09.662
  • And wondering what on earth is going on?
  • 00:16:09.729 --> 00:16:12.499
  • On earth is going on? god gives him a shake-up call.
  • 00:16:12.565 --> 00:16:13.767
  • God gives him a shake-up call. you say, "why do
  • 00:16:13.833 --> 00:16:14.501
  • You say, "why do you call it that?"
  • 00:16:14.567 --> 00:16:15.101
  • You call it that?" well, that's what he said.
  • 00:16:15.168 --> 00:16:17.404
  • Well, that's what he said. verse six, "thus says
  • 00:16:17.470 --> 00:16:18.738
  • Verse six, "thus says the lord of hosts,
  • 00:16:18.805 --> 00:16:20.874
  • The lord of hosts, 'once more'" say that with me.

  • 'once more'" say that with me. "once more."
  • 00:16:23.209 --> 00:16:25.578
  • "once more." that means he did it before.
  • 00:16:25.645 --> 00:16:28.148
  • That means he did it before. and that means he'll...
  • 00:16:28.214 --> 00:16:30.250
  • And that means he'll... okay.
  • 00:16:30.316 --> 00:16:31.951
  • Okay. "once more,

  • (it is a little while) i," who's gonna do it?
  • 00:16:36.823 --> 00:16:38.158
  • Who's gonna do it? god.
  • 00:16:38.224 --> 00:16:39.893
  • God. "'i will shake heaven

  • "'i will shake heaven and earth the sea and dry land,

  • Temple with glory,' says the lord of hosts."
  • 00:16:50.637 --> 00:16:53.006
  • Says the lord of hosts." now if we're worried about
  • 00:16:53.073 --> 00:16:54.140
  • Now if we're worried about what we're going to do,

  • God will do what he said. the question is,

  • The question is, where will you be
  • 00:17:20.266 --> 00:17:21.334
  • Where will you be when he starts shaking things?
