    Habakkuk was frustrated with the lack of faith and the immorality in the Israelites. God had an answer for him and for us.

    11.20.22 Habakkuk 1:1–3, 2:1-4 1 The threatening oracle which the prophet Habakkuk saw. 2 How long, LORD, must I cry for help, but you do not listen? I call out to you, “Violence!” but you do not save! 3 Why do you cause me to see injustice? Why do you overlook misery? Devastation and violence ...read more

    If you ask Christian which is their favorite book of the Bible the answer will vary from Genesis to Revelations. However, probably very few if any would say my favorite book of the Bible is Habakkuk.

    The reason they would not choose this book as their favorite is because they do not know that much about the book of Habakkuk. Let me share a few things with you about this precious book of the Bible and it might become your favorite. Let’s look at… I. THE BOOK Out of the sixty six books of ...read more

    Trusting God When We Don't Understand

    Last week we discussed the importance of allowing Jesus to be Lord of our lives. Today, we will talk about “Trusting God When We Don’t Understand.” (Sometimes in the journey of allowing Him to be Lord, we are faced with situations that we don’t understand.)

    Bible Text: Habakkuk 1:1-11; 2:1-4, 12-14; 3:2, 18-19 • Many time’s the events in our world fail to make sense. We watch the news (especially the political news during this season) or the events in our own personal lives and we wonder, “Where is God in all of this?” Sometimes, we have to admit ...read more

    The world is falling apart. God doesn't seem to care. But He has a plan.

    1. There are problems everywhere! a. I read of a Missouri couple who built their 5,300-square-foot home in a gated community in Florida. The three-story house had five bedrooms, three floors, beautiful verandas, and it was bordered with palm trees. The only problem: The contractor built the house ...read more

    Even as we sigh over the evening news, and wonder when the time will come, the wars and earthquakes and floods do call us back to alertness, even if most of our neighbors are deaf to the alarms.

    A wonderful little song came out in the 60's, I think the Kingston Trio sang it... It’s called The Merry Minuet. They're rioting in Africa, they're starving in Spain There's hurricanes in Florida, and Texas needs rain. The whole world is festering with unhappy ...read more

    To those of us who have taken the time to wrestle with our faith, have you ever noticed that there are seasons when God makes no sense?

    I want to begin with a statement in my sermon this morning that whatever God is doing… it makes no sense especially to the serious believers among us, to those of us who have taken the time to wrestle with our faith, have you ever noticed that there are seasons when God makes no sense?

    And Injustice For All

     | 1,201 views

    The unjust judge is only a problem if we confuse God and man, and put our trust in the one instead of the other.

    Have you ever felt that God just wasn’t listening? Silent, uncaring, even absent? Perhaps you have a problem, a need, a pain, a burning question; you bring it before God, and - nothing happens. You remember what Jesus said about persisting in prayer, so you go on battering at the heavenly gates - ...read more

    How long, Lord.

    WATCHING IN PRAYER. Habakkuk 1:1-4, Habakkuk 2:1-4. This is the oracle or “burden” which Habakkuk the prophet did “see” (Habakkuk 1:1). So, right from the top, we understand that the prophet’s patient waiting of Habakkuk 2:1 paid off. When Habakkuk speaks of his message as a burden, it ...read more

    There are only two possible ways you can approach God - with belief or unbelief. You either believe God, or you don’t believe him. You either put faith in Christ, or you don’t put faith in Christ. You only come to Him by faith in Jesus Christ, or you don’t come to Him at all.

    As most of you know, an eighteen-year-old young man took twenty-one lives at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, TX, on Tuesday. Nineteen of these lives were elementary-aged children. This is the deadliest school shooting in Texas history and it’s incomprehensible to me that we have such a category. ...read more

    How does God judge groups, towns, cities and nations?

    Last week we heard about The Minor Old Testament Prophet Habakkuk, minor because the book that bears his name is short, only 3 chapters long as opposed to The Major Old Testament Prophet Isaiah whose book is 66 chapters. Habakkuk differs markedly from the other prophetic books. Whereas most of the ...read more
