KEY PRINCIPLES FROM THIS MESSAGE:
“The righteous will live by faith” – It is “right” to have faith in our God, no matter what. “By faith” is the right way to live, in light of who God our Father is!
“The righteous will live by faith” – Habakkuk came to a place where he realized he didn’t need to know why, because He knew the God who does not lie, and is compassionate and gracious. KNOWING HIM, he could conclude that He must have a reason for this in all His wisdom!
To be able to sit back and just know that God is always in control, and one day soon He’ll be returning to rescue us and purge the earth of its evil; that should be enough for us. That should sustain us for the rest of our lives!
We should be, and CAN be, thankful in all circumstances, because we know the God of the universe, that He is good and righteous and merciful towards whoever turns to His Son from the heart.
God Gives Grace, To His Glory– blog 4/19/24
The truth about grace is that it is designed for people who understand their own depravity and, therefore, their dire need for a Savior
By faith we see God’s hand in everything. This is why we should especially thank God for the gift of faith. It truly is the most tremendous blessing we could ask for!
Happy Thanksgiving, Lord. To you we give all the honor and praise, no matter what.
