And in this prayer/poem, we find how Habakkuk learns to praise the Lord anyhow. Read John 8:31-32, 36 & Romans 8:1, 31-39. Habbakkuk says in verse 18, "Yet I will rejoice in the Lord, in the God of mine salvation." What he does pray is this, that God will do His work. I can hear Job say, “I never lost my praise” remember that whatever is happening in your life, no matter how gloomy or discouraged you may feel, even when you’re faced with what feels like the silenced of God—God is always aware of and concerned about … me.

Eventually he got an answer that he didn't expect and that he particularly didn't want. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. Then in verse 4, he takes it even further and he describes it this way: “His brightness was like the light,” and the word “light” is the word for sunlight. And then he says in verse 19, “The Lord God is my strength, and He will make my feet like hinds’ feet” – and hinds are gazelles and it’s the idea that God’s going to give me speed to run away from anybody that would want to hurt me – speed “and He’ll make me walk upon mine high places.” “God’s going to put me up in a lofty place.” Oh, what a picture of adoration. While we are to praise God for what He is as well as what He does, commendable behavior of the Stephanus family, he directs them to do So many of you folks merit Watch in verse 2. “And I trembled in myself, that I might rest in the day of trouble.” In other words, he says, “I knew this day of trouble was coming and I was really shook up that I wasn’t going to be too happy when it got here.” He said, “I wanted some comfort when that day came.”.

But he can’t do any of them because none of them have the answer, so he just drops the idea and just says, “I’m just going to stand here and love God and just keep on loving Him and praising Him no matter what happens. That he was going to stand and watch those that he knew die in front of him? He gave up on what he didn’t know and started remembering what he did know, and instead of worrying about why things were going the way they were going and why in the world God was allowing this and allowing that, he just stood back and said, “Now, wait a minute, my God is an eternal God, He’s a righteous God, He can’t stand sin, He’s got to punish sin, He never does wrong, He always does right,” and He began to tie down in his own mind that which he knew about God.

Because the Bible says, “Whom the Lord loveth, He” what? Who Is God? “Thou didst march through the land in indignation, Thou didst thresh the nations in anger, thou wentest forth for the salvation of Thy people, even for salvation with Thine anointed; Thou woundedst the head out of the house of the wicked.” In other words, took care of the princes, the leaders, “by laying there the foundation unto the neck.” He started with the people, which are the foundation.

Verse 18a: For they have refreshed my spirit and to be perfect to merit praise. Hebrews 13:15 says, “By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.” But lets get our theology First, Paul Showed His Exultation In The Form Of A 3. David Edwards in his book, Worship Three Sixty Five, writes, "When we praise God, we are ringing the doorbell, making our presence known, letting Him know that we have come to see Him. 1. I don’t like my circumstances. He was simply saying, “God, if You’re going to do it this way, bring Your purpose to realization. 7. There was a godly group of people around, and they kept hearing all these prophets just blistering the populace all the time with the fact that God was going to judge. You and I, however, are not. 3) Great sermons illustrate the point - The moral of any story usually leaves the most significant impression on the listener.

Second, Paul Showed His Exultation In The Form Of A “My lips quivered at the voice, rottenness entered into my bones.” Isn’t that a description of – he just collapsed, see? Two things. One great part of prayer is praise, and praise is based on remembering God and what God has done. He came to that conclusion in chapter 1, verse 13, when he said, “I know, God, you’ve got to do something because you can’t stand sin. Whatever the enemy is, God’s ready. to every one that helpeth with us, and laboureth. He’s not praying selfishly, he’s not praying biased in favor of his flesh or his people. Stephanus and his house proved Paul really meant it when he praised But then at the end of verse 2, Habakkuk kind of adds a little note. Then when you come to verse 10, you see an inference of the Red Sea, “The Mountains saw Thee, they trembled, the overflowing of the water passed by, and the deep uttered its voice and lifted up its hands on high.” And here, you have in Hebrew poetry the idea of water piling up, which is exactly what happened when they crossed the Red Sea. 2C.

That’s a way to cope with problems. I think that would be a good time to praise others, as well. He seems to be saying, “God, we have not one thing to offer, we have not one thing to say on our behalf, we have nothing to commend ourselves except to ask You to act like Yourself and put a little mercy in with Your judgment.” That’s always the way God operates, always, always, always. He knows God’s going to judge, and so he doesn’t ask God, “God remember all the good things we’ve done,” “God, oh, take account of all the little nice things we’ve been doing from time to time.”, He doesn’t say, “God, remember their good works.” He doesn’t say, “God, remember their merits.” He says, “God remember” – what? Reverencing God as he did, he knew when that judgment came, it was going to be something to see – and he was afraid. This family, however, meant business for God and That’s what it ought to be.
