Pastor Brian reminds us that the history of mankind is encapsulated in the book of Habakkuk—idolatry and violence, suffering and injustice, wicked rulers and fearful times. The prophet is crying out to the Lord, beseeching Him to make things right. But the answer isn’t what he was hoping for—judgment is coming. God’s Word to him and to us are the same—the just are to live by faith, trusting that one day soon, “The earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.“ As we await the fulfillment of His Word, let us pray as Habakkuk did: in wrath remember mercy. Revive Your work in the midst of our years.
Habakkuk 1-3
