Once again, a well documented excellent post!
((HUGS))Good morning, Snippy and everyone at the Foxhole.
They started well, but then their enthusiasm waned and they turned to building houses for themselves. In his first message, Haggai asked, "Is it time for you yourselves to dwell in your paneled houses, and this temple to lie in ruins?" (1:4). In message two (2:1-9), Haggai asked if anyone remembered the temple Solomon had built, and that King Nebuchadnezzar destroyed. A few elderly exiles could recall the former glory. By comparison, the abandoned work looked pitiful. Let's think for a moment about our work of building the church. For us, the church is the body of Christ-the believers themselves (1 Corinthians 12:27). Our mission as followers of Jesus is to become a strong, dedicated, growing, witnessing church. How is your local congregation doing? Is it busy doing the work of God? Are you personally involved? Or have you become distracted with the work of building your own "paneled houses"? -Dave Egner
Should then His work for lack of zeal decline? His kingdom first! Our light must not grow dim- Through faithful servants may His glory shine! -Mollon Commitment to Christ goes hand in hand with commitment to His church.

Happy Treadhead Tuesday!
On the third day of the war it was the 87th that alone held the front line in a critical area against superior enemy forces, . . .
The story of Israeli defense.
The prophecy of Haggai is often overlooked in Scripture, but it holds much for us. This brief book consists of four messages from God to the Jewish exiles who had returned from Babylon. Their mission was to rebuild the temple in Jerusalem.
