Habakkuk’s final statement of faith 3:19
The Lord GOD is my strength, And He has made my feet like hinds' feet, And makes me walk on my high places.God will supply everything I need
"God is my strength" - Not I will be strong
"He makes my feet like hind’s feet"-The hind is the female deer, a sure footed in the mountains which bounds over rocks and vegetation in the mountains.
Mountains are hard to climb. It is a lot like the troubles of life. But if my feet are like hind’s feet, we can leap over the troubles in our life.
"And Makes me walk on my high places"-There is nothing like the view from the mountaintop.
Habakkuk knows that with God strength he will leap over the difficulties and gain a perspective that is marvelous.
That is what God wants to do in your life. But it is only available to those who walk by faith. Live every moment - no matter how bleak or hopeless.
With the knowledge that God is doing something - beyond my ability to comprehend. It will come about – Wait for it!
If Habakkuk could wait walk by Faith so can I
If Habakkuk could wait for total devastation so can I
If Habakkuk could rejoice in the worst of circumstances so can I
If Habakkuk could live above the trials of life, so can I

Todd,
Once again, I am so surprised by your pastor. Totally not what I expected!
But so very right on target with this discussion of Habakkuk. I just read these words recently myself. Super encouragements!
Thanks for taking notes while your pastor preaches! :)
