Sermon Outline

  1. Introduction (Hab 1:1)

  2. How long? (Hab 1:2-4)

  3. Look and be astounded! (Hab 1:5-11)

“Faithfulness to Jesus means doing all we can to model holiness and justice while also recognizing that the full revelation of his justice is yet to come. This is a matter for prayer, as modelled to us by Habakkuk, whose message is itself enclosed in his prayers and God’s response to them.” – David Firth.

Reflection Questions

  1. In the light of the cross, how am I growing my humble and persistent trust in my sovereign God?

  2. If I trust in my sovereign God, how should I live my life in the face of evil and suffering?
