I Am With You -Haggai 1:13-14

Haggai the prophet was sent by God to the governor of Judah and the high priest.

Why? Because God was calling them to rebuild the temple! 

After they obeyed what God had said to them through Haggai, God left them with this promise:

"Then Haggai, the LORD's messenger, spoke the LORD's message to the people, saying, "I am with you, says the LORD."

Hopefully reading that promise will have the same effect on us as it did for them.

"So the LORD stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people; and they came and worked on the house of the LORD of hosts, their God,"

Just as they were encouraged through the prophet while they pursued what God was calling them to do, knowing that God is with us should be an encouragement to us as we work out God's will in our lives.
