HABAKKUK - THE JUST WILL LIVE BY FAITH BY ABRI BRANCKEN

The book of Habakkuk is one of the 12 minor prophets in the Bible. Many of Habakkuk’s words are actually poems of lament, similar to the lamentations in the book of Psalms. In a lament, the poet lodges a complaint to draw God’s attention to the suffering and injustice in the world and then “demands” that God do something. Knowing this is the key to understanding the design and message of this short book.

Throughout his lifetime, Habakkuk watched his people become increasingly corrupt, burdening his heart. Eventually, Habakkuk asks God a very important question: Why do You idly look at wrong, at destruction, violence, and wickedness and do nothing about it? If God is so good, why does He tolerate so much evil? Habakkuk is concerned with the prevalence of injustice in his nation and God’s passive response to this problem. Habakkuk is seeing the great iniquity, sin and perversion in the lives of those around him and feels helpless. Obviously, God must see all of this, but it seems God does not care. There are several important lessons to learn from the book of Habakkuk. In this sermon message, Abri highlights a number of lessons that are applicable to us today.
