Haggai | Consider Your Ways | Pastor Seth Ramirez

What does it look like when we drift away from what truly matters? The book of Haggai, a short but piercing prophetic voice in the Old Testament, confronts us with that very question. Written during a moment when God's people had stopped building His temple and turned their energy toward building comfortable lives for themselves, Haggai's message cuts right to the heart of misplaced priorities. We are walked through five areas of personal and spiritual inventory, each one a mirror held up to our own lives. Are we putting the Lord first, or have we quietly shuffled Him to the back while we chase after security, comfort, and success? The sobering reality Haggai presents is that when we deprioritize God, we enter a kind of spiritual famine where nothing we pursue ever fully satisfies. The work never feels like enough. The harvest always falls short. And yet, the remedy is not complicated. It begins with simply considering our ways, honestly and with an open heart, and returning to a life where God is genuinely first.
