Working Out Your Faith

"

Often we have questions, doubts, fears, and even complaints against God. How should we go to God to express these thoughts and feelings? Is there a right or wrong way, or maybe at least a better way? Habakkuk is struggling in understanding how a holy God could bring about a wicked nation to do harm to God's own people. But in his struggling faith, he wrestles with it in a way that is helpful for us to learn from. Indeed, it is even a way that Jesus taught us to wrestle in our prayer. ABOUT THIS SERMON SERIES: Habakkuk was a prophet of Judah, and during his time, God's people were living treacherously, committing idolatry, and living out godless lives. Habakkuk complains to God, asking why God simply sits back and watches His own people live this way. And God reveals that He has a plan, but even if God were to reveal His plan, no one would believe it. In this book, we get a picture of God's perfect and sovereign rule over not just His people, but the whole world, and we find great comfort in a sovereign God as we await His Kingdom.
