Study 4 From the Book of Habakkuk is: Habakkuk 3:16-19
With this lesson, we end the book of Habakkuk. Tomorrow we will
start with the book of Obadiah.
1
What two effects did the vision have upon Habakkuk? With verse
16, cf. Dn. 10:8; rev 1:17. With verses
17, 18, cf. Ps. 73:25, 26; Phil. 4:11-13. Are we as sensitive as Habakkuk was
to the glory and the faithfulness of the God with whom, by grace, we have to
do?
2
What three things did God-trusted and rejoiced in—do for the
prophet? Cf. Ps. 18:32, 39; Zc. 4:6; Is. 40:31. Which of these do you
particularly need God to do for you?
