Haggai 1:1-15 . . . The book of Haggai is the second smallest book in the Bible, only 2 chapters.  But, the message given by the Lord to the prophet, Haggai, is huge.  In Chapter 1, verses 5 and 7, the Lord's message to the people is strong, "Consider your ways."  The priorities of God's people have deteriorated to misplaced priorities, filling up their lives with "stuff" and yet still being empty.  These were God-fearing people, and yet, the Lord decided to stir them up through the prophet.  Haggai gives them God's message that they should check their misplaced priorities and rebuild the House of the Lord.  When they began to do God's work as directed, the Lord said, "I am with you."  They woke up, listened to God's word, and obeyed.   The House of the Lord lives in you.  Where are your priorities?  What does God want to do through you?
