Following the Australian government’s announcement about the new measures to fight the COVID-19 in Australia we are unable to gather together at our church for Sunday services. Therefore, for the time being the Sunday services will be available online so that you will be able to worship in your respective housechurches. It is shocking that we cannot come together to worship, but this is an opportunity to think about the true value of God’s temple and also reflect on the broken temple in our hearts. When the temple of our hearts that has been destroyed by our worldly greed gets restored, the church will be restored, worship will be restored and our ruined lives will be restored.
Passage to read: Haggai 1:1-11
5 Now this is what the Lord Almighty says: “Give careful thought to your ways.
6 You have planted much, but harvested little. You eat, but never have enough. You drink, but never have your fill. You put on clothes, but are not warm. You earn wages, only to put them in a purse with holes in it.”
7 This is what the Lord Almighty says: “Give careful thought to your ways.
8 Go up into the mountains and bring down timber and build my house, so that I may take pleasure in it and be honored,” says the Lord.
9 “You expected much, but see, it turned out to be little. What you brought home, I blew away. Why?” declares the Lord Almighty. “Because of my house, which remains a ruin, while each of you is busy with your own house.
10 Therefore, because of you the heavens have withheld their dew and the earth its crops.
11 I called for a drought on the fields and the mountains, on the grain, the new wine, the olive oil and everything else the ground produces, on people and livestock, and on all the labor of your hands.”
1. Did you think of Jesus when you woke up this morning?
2. What is God’s message to you?
3. What do you need to obey?
4. What are you grateful for today?
