Give Up on Measuring Up
By David Wilkerson0HAG 1:12David Wilkerson emphasizes the importance of focusing on building God's house rather than measuring our worth against others. He reflects on the Israelites' return to rebuilding the temple, where older generations wept over its perceived inferiority compared to Solomon's temple. Many Christians today feel discouraged and give up because they believe they do not measure up to others, leading to feelings of hopelessness. Wilkerson encourages believers to remain true to the Lord and to measure their growth by their love for Jesus, assuring them of God's presence and blessings as they prioritize His work. By letting go of comparisons and selfishness, they can experience God's favor and joy.
