Introduction
The LORD instructs Haggai to encourage the people by telling them how splendid the new Temple will be and that nations will bring their treasures to the Temple. The LORD promises to bless the people; and Zerubbabel, a descendant of David, will rule as governor in God’s name and with God’s authority.
Scripture Reading
Haggai 2:1-23
Today’s Key Verse: Haggai 2:4
[The LORD said:] “But now, don’t be discouraged, any of you. Do the work, for I am with you.”
Reflect
What encouraging promise did Haggai give to the people and to the governor, Zerubbabel? Are there tasks that you need to complete? Who or what encourages you to keep going when you face obstacles that you need to overcome?
Pray
Almighty God, thank you for your promise to be with me always. Whenever I am discouraged, I know I can turn to you. You are my rock and source of strength. May I be a source of encouragement to someone this day. Amen.
Prayer Concern
