“Although the fig tree shall not blossom, neither shall fruit be in the vines; the labour of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat; the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and there shall be no herd in the stalls: Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will joy in the God of my salvation. The LORD God is my strength, and he will make my feet like hinds' feet, and he will make me to walk upon mine high places.” (Habakkuk 3:17-19)
Today’s Morsel: When I read the book of Habakkuk, he paints a dim picture of loss while also repeating his confidence in God. I know, he says, “The fig tree shall not blossom, neither shall fruit be in the vines; the labour of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat; the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and there shall be no herd in the stalls.” God has still got me covered and He is still with me. And so, he says, “Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will joy in the God of my salvation. The LORD God is my strength, and he will make my feet like hinds' feet, and he will make me to walk upon mine high places.” Habakkuk says that loss, times of unfruitfulness, and lack of labors in time of harvest is not a time to cry over spilled milk in God’s Kingdom, rather it is a time for rejoicing (my wording). Our praise and worship are not dependent on what He does, but rather on Who He is.
Sing: He’s all I need! He’s all I need! Jesus is all I need. He satisfies my needs supply. Jesus is all I need!
Thought For Today: that worship Him, must worship Him in spirit and in Truth.
