Haggai 2.1. In the seventh month, on the twenty-first day of the month, the word of the LORD* came by the prophet Haggai saying, 2. Now speak to Zerubbabel the son of Shaltiel, governor of Judah and to Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and to the rest of the people saying, 3. Who is left among you who saw this House in its first glory? And how do you see it now? Is it not as nothing in your eyes in comparison to it? 4. Yet now strengthen, O Zerubbabel!

According to the word that I covenanted with you when you came out of Egypt, so My Spirit remains among you. Do not be in awe!
