Kingdom Builders 5: You Need Nothing

Micaiah Irmler

Haggai 2:1-9 NKJV

1 In the seventh month, on the twenty-first of the month, the word of the Lord came by Haggai the prophet, saying:  2 “Speak now to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and to the remnant of the people, saying:  3 ‘Who is left among you who saw this temple in its former glory? And how do you see it now? In comparison with it, is this not in your eyes as nothing? 

Remember: Out of all the things you need, you actually need nothing.

I. Remember: Whenever you are down to that is when God is up to .

Quote: Pastor Rod Parsley says it best, “Nothing is impossible for God and for God to do nothing is impossible.”

II. God will do something like it's nothing.

2 Chronicles 14: 11 And Asa cried out to the Lord his God, and said, “Lord, it is nothing for You to help, whether with many or with those who have no power; help us, O Lord our God, for we rest on You, and in Your name we go against this multitude. O Lord, You are our God; do not let man prevail against You!”

Haggai 1: 4-6 4 But now the Lord says: Be strong, Zerubbabel. Be strong, Jeshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest. Be strong, all you people still left in the land. And now get to work, for I am with you, says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies. 5 My Spirit remains among you, just as I promised when you came out of Egypt. So do not be afraid.’ 6 “For this is what the Lord of Heaven’s Armies says: In just a little while I will again shake the heavens and the earth, the oceans and the dry land.

III. You didn’t go through all this for nothing.

Haggai 1: 7-9 7 I will shake all the nations, and the treasures of all the nations will be brought to this Temple. I will fill this place with glory, says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies. 8 The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies. 9 The future glory of this Temple will be greater than its past glory, says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies. And in this place I will bring peace. I, the Lord of Heaven’s Armies, have spoken!”

is never nothing to God.

Remember: The blessing of nothing.

  1. vs. 2-4
  2. Presence vs. 5
  3. vs. 6-9

Key Thought: You need nothing.
