Habakkuk series [kevin] | Habakkuk 2 is God's response back to Habakkuk's cry in Chapter 1. In chapter 2 God provides 5 warnings to assure Habbakuk that justice will be served. Two main ideas: 1. Principle of faith: This entire book implies that God embraces and honors our questions. Do you feel you have a voice with God? Are you able to ask him tough questions? Scripture indicates that asking questions can actually lead you deeper into your faith. Here is the truth: God can handle our questions, just like he was able to handle Habakkuks questions. 2. Movement for our lives: Faith is what sets us apart. The Bible defines faith as "The assurance of what is hoped for, the conviction of things not seen" (Heb. 11). We can read these things and understand them, however when the rubber meets the road our lives can show a different picture. Exercise faith in Christ, he is trustworthy. When we don't exercise faith we become paralyzed. Faith is not the entry point, but the very substance by which we live our entire lives chasing Him. | 7/17/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
