People fear the Lord when God's Word comes in power. In Haggai's time, God's Word came in power to the people and then they feared the Lord. Today's pulpits for the most part are not proclaiming the Word of God in power and the people are not fearing the Lord. This needs to change. We need to go back and recapture the powerful preaching of the Word of God that once prevailed in this nation. When George Whitefield came to the colonies in the 1740's, a voice was heard that turned this nation upside down. It was the voice of God coming through the powerful preaching of Whitefield and others. God sent a mighty revival on the nation and that's what we need to happen again.
