Introduction

Habakkuk’s prayer in this concluding chapter begins with a request for the LORD to be merciful to the people of Judah. His prayer then continues with a description of the LORD’s presence and power in the world. Habakkuk is overwhelmed by the LORD’s awesome power, which makes him confident that the LORD will save the people of Judah, despite their present struggles.

Scripture Reading 

Habakkuk 3:1-19

Today’s Key Verse: Habakkuk 3:18

I will still be joyful and glad, because the LORD God is my savior.

Reflect

As Habakkuk prays, he recounts many of God’s great acts. In doing so, he reminds himself of God’s mercy and power, and this gives him strength. How can remembering God’s works in the world strengthen your faith? How has God been made known to you today?

Pray

Sovereign Lord, I have heard of what you have done, and I am filled with awe. Strengthen my spirit that I may remember the ways you have revealed your presence and power in my life. Be present with me today that I may find comfort and hope in the sure knowledge of your everlasting love. Amen.
