A Revival of Mercy

As we continue with Habakkuk this morning, we listen in on the prayer of Habakkuk. Habakkuk knows that God's wrath is coming - the Chaldeans/Babylonians are going to invade Judah and destroy their land and take the Israelites captive. Yet, Habakkuk does not give up on the God of Redemption. Habakkuk prays for mercy in the midst of God's wrath. As God was merciful in the past, so Habakkuk asks God to merciful once again.

Habakkuk recalls many ways God worked in the past - and he knows that the God of yesterday is the same today and tomorrow. As you listen to the prayer of Habakkuk, allow God to remind you of the ways He has been merciful to you and to our church. As we watch all that happening in our world, and particularly in the cities and streets of our country, ask God to be merciful once again. Ask God to bring about a Revival of Mercy in us, in our church, in our city, country and world.
