Haggai 2:1-5

Read Haggai 2:1-5.

Circumstance can't cancel covenant.  

You look around (Why are you doing that, anyway?) and conclude that things were better yesteryear. From that conclusion, you self-determine that God's intent toward you is different now.  That's a sure way to welcome fear into your life!

In spite of the circumstances you're in right now, God says, "My covenant is still in effect; I'm still with you."  Then comes a sigh of relief.  Panic begins to fade.  Fear loses its grip.  The work at hand begins to prosper.  At least  a little.

It is one thing to read an encouraging word such as this.  Do you believe it?  Unless you believe it, you'll never escape from that doubt, that black cloud that lingers.
