Haggai 1:2-6

Haggai 1:2-6 TPT

“YAHWEH, Commander of Angel Armies, says this: ‘These people procrastinate by saying that this is not the right time to finish rebuilding YAHWEH’s house.’ ” Then YAHWEH spoke the following message to the people using Haggai as his mouthpiece: “Really? Is this the right time for you to be living in your expensive houses while my house lies in ruins? So now, I, YAHWEH, Commander of Angel Armies, say to you: You had better be intentional about the path you choose. You have planted much but harvested very little. You fill your plates, but you are never full. You drink but are still thirsty. You put on clothes but not enough to keep warm. You earn wages, but your money burns a hole in your pocket and quickly runs out.
