HERE IS A FREE HABAKKUK DEVOTIONAL FOR STUDENTS

We can all relate to arguments with our siblings, coworkers, and partners, but have you ever had an argument with someone in authority? That can be scary. In this devotional, we are going to examine an argument with the ultimate authority. The prophet Habakkuk argued with God.

His little book of arguments poses two questions as an opening statement. One, “How long, Lord, must I call for help, but you do not listen?” (Habakkuk 1:2). Second, he probes, “Why do you tolerate the treacherous?” (1:3) 

Habakkuk’s words may be ancient, but his situation is timeless. He asked. God answered — sort of. A voice from heaven came to the prophet and said, “Look at the nations and watch and be utterly amazed. For I am going to do something in your days that you would not believe” (1:5). After the initial interrogation, God invited him to look beyond the present circumstances. Were Habakkuk’s questions perfectly answered? No, not really. Yet, God’s response radiates hope. To sum it up, God says, “hope is on the horizon.”
