Today: [Haggai 2] The Glory of the Former Temple: In ch. 2 of Haggai the prophet encourages the people in the building of the Restoration Temple. They had become discouraged because the temple of Solomon was so much greater, they didn’t see much point in their efforts. The same discouragement plagues the people of God today. Will we ever see an outpouring of God as in the days of Acts? Many suggest it is foolish to even hope for such a thing, but Haggai speaks not only to his day but our day as well of a promised greater glory to come, that is not a false hope but the sure outcome for a people willing to build into it.
