How to Respond When God's Ways Don't Make Sense

Habakkuk 1:12-2:1

October 23, 2022 • Pastor Phil Kooistra • Habakkuk 1:12—2:1

Give

Sometimes what God is doing in our lives makes no sense to us at all. In this sermon, we look at Habakkuk’s response in such a time and learn from his example. When God’s ways do not make sense, we can remind ourselves of truths about God, share our questions and frustrations with him, and then pray and wait faithfully for the Lord’s direction.

Responding to Disappointment

November 13, 2022 • Pastor Phil Kooistra • Habakkuk 3:1–15

As believers, how should we respond when faced with difficulty or disappointment? In this sermon from Habakkuk 3:1-15, Pastor Phil looks at the prophet’s response as a model for us to follow. Habakkuk responds with a prayer of humility, hope, and for mercy, and he remembers who God is and what he has done. When facing confusion and disappointment, we too should first pray, and then remember! From our Sunday service at Grace Bible Church of Bend.

God's Judgment Will Come

November 6, 2022 • Calvin Hemphill • Habakkuk 2:6–20

Is this world full of sin and injustice outside of God’s control? Will the unrighteous ever be held accountable? In this sermon from Habakkuk 2:6-20, Pastor Calvin looks at God’s righteous judgment on the thief, the profiteer, the oppressor, the abuser, and the idolater. God is perfectly just and absolutely sovereign, and we can rest assured that justice will be done. From our Sunday service at Grace Bible Church of Bend.
