So the LORD stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people; and they came and worked on the house of the LORD of hosts, their God. Haggai 1:14

After the people listened to Haggai and got right with the Lord, God began to operate on three fronts, so that His work would not be discontinued. Because He is perfect – knowing everything – the Father acts in such a way that no one can imitate Him. In this case, He raised the spirits of those in leadership positions – Zerubbabel in administration and Joshua in the priesthood. Let Him tell you what you need to understand in order to serve Him.

People touched by the Most High to lead His work on Earth need to be aware of His order and how they are to proceed. Actually, the Almighty takes care of the details, as He did with Moses while he was with Him on the mountain, where He showed the model of the tabernacle: And see to it that you make them according to the pattern which was shown you on the mountain (Exodus 25:40). He will ask of you that which He has commanded!

Leaders negligent to divine guidance will be cast aside. It will be a sad end to the servant who turns his eyes away from the Lord, for he fights on behalf of the enemy, who does everything to stop the work of God. If you cannot help, it is best not to hinder. However, when He works, no one can stop Him. Believe and do as you are told; otherwise, not only will the work be despised, but there will be condemnation!

On the first front, the Lord lifted up the spirit of Zerubbabel, who was leading the nation back from exile. This lifting means that the person becomes positive, inspired and loving. These requirements are indispensable for someone to enter the ministry. Without being positive, you will be deceived by the evil one; without inspiration, you will not know what to do most of the time and without love, the people will never receive you well. Be vigilant!

In the second, the Lord lifted up the spirit of Joshua, son of Jehozadak, the high priest. Any authority will only succeed in leading the people to make the right decisions if it is intrepid. The one who is fearless will never mind first knowing what the place he is being sent to is like. A man of God will live even in amongst bandits and convert them to the holy Gospel. Young David, for example, was bold!

Gospel ministers who have these three characteristics will captivate the lost – to the point that they will go to the services, bringing their friends to be blessed. Thus, those who hear the Word will also have a determined and willing spirit to face and overcome the demons and their boss. This is the third front lifted up by God. Such is the shepherd; such are the sheep. The Lord’s servant draws water from the Rock, brings bread from Heaven, silences storms and other works that arise to take Christians away from the Father’s house.

When everyone becomes unanimous in the decision to do the work, things soon begin to get better in the church, in the family, and in the whole nation. Now, if someone gets carried away by temptations, the spirit of separation is present in the congregation and the members disappear from the services. Pray! 

In Christ, with love,

God, our Solution! As we see the results of Your work, we recognize that Your foreknowledge was involved in those who were called to contribute to the fulfillment of Your will. We were not saved by chance either. You are good!

Thanks to Your action, the Israelites heard Your message through Haggai. Your willingness to restore Your house is commendable. How would the people seek You if it were not open and restored? We thank You for taking care of the details. We are Your house!

We want Your action in the work today. So, whoever comes to You will have the best and most complete testimony of Your love. May there be a new Haggai everywhere, so that the newborn will be like Zerubbabel, Joshua and the rest of Your people. Yours is the glory!
