David Jeremiah Devotional 28th February

Theme For David Jeremiah Devotional 28th February – Faith in Faithless Times

But the righteous shall live by his faith.
Habakkuk 2:4 (ESV)

Recommended Reading: Habakkuk 3:17-19

The prophet Habakkuk left us an interesting book. Its three short chapters are essentially a counseling session between Habakkuk and God, for the prophet was troubled by the turbulent times in which he lived. He couldn’t understand why his culture had crumbled and why the streets of his city had become so lawless, so godless. He prayed about it in chapter 1; and in chapter 2, God told Habakkuk to trust Him and to live by faith (verse 4), for “the Lord is in His holy temple,” and one day “the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea” (verses 20, 14).

In response Habakkuk composed a hymn of rejoicing in his third and final chapter, saying, “The Lord God is my strength; He will make my feet like deer’s feet, and He will make me walk on my high hills” (verse 19).

When the way becomes rough, trust Him who is still in His holy temple. He will give you hinds’ feet on high places.

May all bow to the scepter of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the whole earth be filled with His glory.
John Hancock, in a proclamation to Massachusetts, October 15, 1791.
