WE TRIUMPH THROUGH THE STORMS

Habakkuk 3:17-19
Even though the fig trees have no blossoms, and there are no grapes on the vines; even though the olive crop fails, and the fields lie empty and barren; even though the flocks die in the fields, and the cattle barns are empty, yet I will rejoice in the Lord!
I will be joyful in the God of my salvation!
The Sovereign Lord is my strength! He makes me as surefooted as a deer, able to tread upon the heights.

Every believer should know this by default: troubles, trials, tribulations, wars etc, would be, however, the Lord delivers us from them all.

We can't stop all these evils in the world. Three things we must do though:

* shine the light;
* share the gospel;
* intercede for our nation.

The end time agenda must yet be fulfilled and its package includes all these uproars.

In Habakkuk's prophesies, there was wrath to come on the enemies of Israel at that time, diverse terrible troubles:

*Habakkuk 3:9-16

verse 16: I trembled inside when I heard this; my lips quivered with fear. My legs gave way beneath me, and I shook in terror.
I will wait quietly for the coming day when disaster will strike the people who invade us.

However what should God's people do at this time:

Habakkuk 3:18
yet I will rejoice in the Lord! I will be joyful in the God of my salvation!

Why?

Isaiah 40:31
But those who trust in the Lord will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles.
They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint.

Because we are family to the Most High.

John 1:12-13
But to all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God.
They are reborn—not with a physical birth resulting from human passion or plan, but a birth that comes from God.

Thus even death cannot separate us from His love talk less of trials and tribulation.

Romans 8:35,38-39
Can anything ever separate us from Christ’s love? Does it mean he no longer loves us if we have trouble or calamity, or are persecuted, or hungry, or destitute, or in danger, or threatened with death?
And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love.
No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Glory to God.

We always have a win-win situation. No one can steal our praise.

He calls us blessed.

Love
