In the book of Haggai, the prophet relays a message from the Lord of Hosts to the people of Israel. He says, “Consider your ways!” because their ways were not the Lord’s ways. Today, we can glean from this passage that the key to getting what we need in our lives is to focus on what God wants for our lives. God’s priorities must become our priorities.
