In this episode of Committed to the Cause, Pastor Jeremy Chism of Bethany Baptist Church in Travelers Rest, South Carolina, concludes the devotional series through Haggai with a stirring reminder that true spiritual construction must begin with heart-level consecration.
Though God’s people had resumed building the temple, their hearts still needed cleansing. ⚒️ Pastor Chism explains from Haggai 2 that religious routine without repentance produces no revival. God desired more than walls of stone—He wanted hearts made holy. 💧
This message calls believers to stop merely “doing” for God and start “being” right with God—turning from sin, seeking purity, and serving the Lord with sincerity. When our foundation is holiness, God promises, “From this day will I bless you.” 🌿
