Habakkuk 2:14
The scripture for today is Habakkuk 2:14
Habakkuk 2:14 For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.
The proliferation of sin and evil in the world should not be construed as a victory for the evil one. The world, though given a long leash by a longsuffering God, will have the light of His salvation shed abroad throughout all its regions. Those who labor to establish the world in iniquity are doing a work of vanity and it will not stand. “For God has purposed that righteousness and holiness, which come by the knowledge of Himself, shall be triumphant over all the earth.” Family Bible Notes
For the child of God, our text today gives reason for excitement and great joy. Throughout the ages when it appeared that God’s people had all but been eliminated from relevance, the power of God moved on their behalf and God raised them up. Even when they were taken captive by foreign powers, God did not abandon them; He delivered them and restored them once again. In the last days, God will raise up His people and they will move with such power and authority that no force on earth will be able to prevent the message of God’s love and grace from filling the earth. Those who receive it will be saved.
God has declared this wonderful promise and those who are His will hold onto His promises, trusting Him, and have no fear of the workers of lawlessness. God always prevails and the righteous will be delivered once again.
God bless you as you continue in His service.
Tim
