Habakkuk: How Long, O Lord? | Living By Faith

About this episode

The episode explores the tension between understanding and trust in God's ways as depicted in the book of Habakkuk.

As we continue in the Habakkuk: How Long, O Lord? series, the prophet’s struggle deepens. In Habakkuk 1:12-2:5, God has answered, but not in a way that brings comfort. Instead, Habakkuk wrestles with a difficult question: How can a holy God use unholy means? As he waits and watches for God’s response, we are drawn into the tension between understanding and trust. Here we hear one of Scripture’s most important declarations: “The righteous shall live by faith.” In a world that doesn’t always make sense, God calls us not to figure everything out, but to trust him.
