Last night before bed, I asked God to speak to me a specific word through the bible. I told Him I wanted a really good verse that would bring revelation to my spirit.

I heard in my spirit, “Habakkuk”. I said out loud, “Oh God, that doesn’t even sound interesting.” Well, I was wrong. I found the verse I was asking for, and it was so powerful to me, that it may just be my new favorite verse.

Out of the Amplified bible Habakkuk 1:5 reads:

Habakkuk was crying to the Lord about the injustice that was being done with the Chaldeans. He didn’t think it was fair that they always seemed to prosper and be blessed even though their lives were wicked and evil.

Look around you. Doesn’t it seem like some people just do whatever they want, and nothing bad ever happens? Do you ever wonder to yourself, “when are they going to get what’s coming to them?”

I don’t wish bad things on anyone, but there is a time for justice to be served. I can relate to Habakkuk on this, and I’m sure we have all been in this situation at some time in our lives. We know that God determines the time for that justice to be served and He says that we won’t even believe the work He has in effect! I think this verse is just as relevant as it was when God spoke it to Habakkuk.

God says His ways are not our ways (Isaiah 55:8). He has said this to me a lot this month. It’s human nature to try and figure everything out, but we can’t. My circumstances haven’t been the best lately, but I know that God has a plan. Again the words, “you wouldn’t believe it if I told you”, ring in my ears. I’m glad His ways are not my ways, because His ways are better than anything I could ever dream of!
