Ish,

acknowledge God and serve him with an undivided heart and a willing mind. He knows all your thoughts and desires. If you go to him, he will accept you; but if you turn away from him, he will abandon you forever. You must realize that the Lord has chosen you to build [holy Temple] His kingdom and strengthen your brothers and sisters. Now do it—and do it with determination. Be confident and determined. Start the work and don’t let anything stop you. The Lord God will be with you. He will not abandon you, but he will stay with you until you [finish the work to be done on his Temple] fulfill the purpose He has called you.

— God’s personal revelation through 1 Chronicles 28:9,10,20
