“I AM With You” to Hear and Fear


Haggai 1:12-14  
12 Then Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, with all the remnant of the people, obeyed the voice of the Lord their God, and the words of Haggai the prophet, as the Lord their God had sent him; and the people feared the presence of the Lord. 13 Then Haggai, the Lord 's messenger, spoke the Lord' s message to the people, saying, “I am with you, says the Lord.” 14 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,

These obeyed the voice of the Lord their God, feared the presence of the Lord, received assurance from His word that, “I am with you, says the Lord."   Then they came and worked on the house of the Lord.   The pattern - hear and fear God, find encouragement and strength of assurance from the Bible, then do all God has called you to do for Him.  So must we make disciples and grow them in The Lord as our labor of love for Him and them.
