God dwells among his people but it is not a given that we will always experience him functionally. In this message on Haggai 1:1–15, Jim Shaddix reminds us how we can experience God to the greatest degree and with the greatest frequency.
- Obey God regarding the urgency of pursuing his presence.
- Fear God and the consequence of failing to pursue his presence.
- Work for God by pursuing his presence in the power of his Spirit.
