God’s Promise Will Be Fulfilled
Habakkuk prophecies in Judah
before its final overthrow by
Babylonia. Honestly concerned
with how God could chasten Judah
by means of a nation even more
sinful than itself, Habakkuk deals
with some perplexing questions:
Why is a just God silent? Why do
the pleas of the faithful seem to
go unheard? The reply comes
in the statement of a timeless
principle of God’s sovereignty:
God will deal in His way and in
His time. Meanwhile righteous
people must continue to trust God.
Lord, You are Our Strength:
For The vision is yet for an
appointed time; but at the end
it will speak, and it will not lie.
Though it tarries, wait for it;
it will surely come… The just
shall live by his faith (Hab 2:3-4).
Even though the olive crop fails
and the fields lie empty & barren;
even though the flocks die in the
fields & the cattle barns are empty,
yet I Will Rejoice in the Lord!
I will be joyful in the God of
my salvation (Hab 3:17-18).
The Sovereign Lord is My Strength;
He makes my feet like the feet
of a deer, He enables me to tread
in the heights (Hab 3:19). Amen.
Lord, help me to have the faith
and understanding I need to keep
praying and not give up if my
prayers aren’t answered right away.
I know Your ways are perfect. But
help me not become discouraged
in the time of waiting for Your help.
But rather to continue praying until
I see Your will done in all the things
You put in my heart to pray about.
In Jesus’ precious name, Amen.
Lord, we have heard all about You
and we are filled with awe by the
amazing things You have done.
In our time of deep need, begin
again to help us as You did in years
gone by. Show us Your power to
save us. No matter what happens
we purpose to Rejoice in You.
for You are our strength.
In Jesus’ mighty name, Amen.
Oh Sovereign Lord, we need You.
Our strength is limited; but
Your strength is endless.
Fill us and empower us;
enable us to do all that
You have called us to do.
May the same Spirit that raised
Jesus from the dead give us life
and strength to make thro all the
dark winters we are facing and
bear much fruit in Your time. Amen
