Have you ever been scared while waiting for answers — and your mind went straight to the worst? Stop scrolling — if you're scared while waiting for answers, you are NOT alone. When you're stuck in the uncertain times — between what you feel and what you hope — the waiting becomes the hardest part. If that's you, don't click away — stay with us for the first 60 seconds. This episode is part of a globally streamed, 5-star Christian show with listeners in 16+ countries, recognized as one of the top Christian women's podcasts for real faith and real-life conversation. In this raw mother-daughter conversation, Chosen By Jesus hosts Kelley and Taylor Tyan talk openly about the emotional and spiritual battle that happens in the waiting — especially when fear, symptoms, tests, or unanswered questions leave you imagining the worst instead of expecting God's best. If your family has faced difficult medical seasons, the waiting hits different. Even when it could be anything, your mind goes back to what you've survived before. Experience shapes fear — even when faith is present. But waiting does not mean God is silent — or absent. Waiting is the place where trust becomes oxygen. ______ Inside This Episode • How to stay grounded when your mind won't stop racing • Why waiting hurts emotionally + spiritually • What to do when fear feels louder than Scripture • Why God develops faith before delivering answers • How to shift from panic → holy expectation ______ Scriptures Referenced Psalm 37:7 • Isaiah 60:22 • Habakkuk 2:3 • Psalm 27:14 • Galatians 6:9 • Romans 8:28 ______ Prayer God, we give You every unknown, every fear, every result, and every outcome.

We are now dealing with the writings of the Minor Prophets (Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zachariah, Malachi). These writers had varied ministries, sometimes with very short messages for God's people.NOTE: I said that the NT has 39 books, but I meant to say that the NT has only 27 books vs 39 for the OT, which is why there are more sections in the OT.Proverbs 30:5 KJVEvery word of God is pure: He is a shield unto them that put their trust in Him.Related Podcasts:— Introduction to the Writings of Moses— Introduction to the Time of the Judges— Introduction to the Time of the Kings— Introduction to the Wisdom Writings— Introduction to the Major Prophets— The Purpose of the Minor Prophets— Male/Female Dynamics: Hosea & Gomer— Lessons from the Book of Jonah— The Third Day— The Final Reward of the WickedRelated Podcasts at TrueWisdom:— The Sign of the Prophet Jonah— The Bride of Christ— What is the Day of the Lord?Text UsSupport the showSend questions or comments to: BibleQuestions@ASBzone.comThe Key Principles of Effective Bible Study is a resource which outlines core concepts shown in the Scriptures that will help you to better understand many Biblical themes and doctrines.

The Father's presence changes our perspective.(Habakkuk 3)
Pastor James Walden continues our "Habakkuk - Waiting on God" series with a sermon on Habakkuk 3:17-19.You can find our sermon discussion questions at rvrsd.org/sgquestions.
This powerful message challenges us to discover the transformative power of gratitude even in our darkest moments. Drawing from Habakkuk 3:17-18, we're confronted with a radical declaration: 'Although the fig tree doesn't blossom... yet I will rejoice in the Lord.' This isn't naive optimism—it's spiritual warfare. When everything around us screams failure, when our bank accounts are empty, when our health reports are discouraging, we're called to put on what Isaiah 61:3 describes as 'the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness.' This isn't just religious language; it's a practical spiritual discipline. The message emphasizes that gratitude isn't about thanking God FOR everything, but IN everything—recognizing that not every trial comes from God, but every trial can become an opportunity for God to demonstrate His faithfulness. We learn that praise shifts atmospheres, that words are containers carrying either life or death, and that our 'yet I will praise' moments become the bridge between our current reality and God's promised outcome. The call is clear: stop being rollercoaster praisers who worship only when life is good, and become consistent worshipers who understand that what we praise through, we grow through. This is how we activate our God-confidence and refuse to let circumstances dictate our spiritual posture.

Send us a textWhat if the worst day of your life was not random, but permitted with purpose? We step into Job's story as a cosmic courtroom, where God sets boundaries and Satan wagers that faith will collapse once comfort is gone. From the opening claim—nothing belongs to us, not even our lives—we track a rapid succession of blows that feel otherworldly: raiders, fire, wind, and a final strike at Job's heart. Along the way, one survivor escapes each calamity, a detail the panel reads as both witness and weight, driving the test forward without pause.We wrestle with a provocative question: was Satan being set up? Pride blinds him; he assumes devotion is transactional. That blindness mirrors modern unbelief, where creation sings yet hearts stay shut. We map biblical echoes—the firstborn in Egypt, Abraham and Isaac, and the eldest brother's house—without forcing symbolism. We also examine the Chaldeans through Habakkuk's lens, noting how ruthless instruments in one moment face judgment in another. The throughline is sovereignty: God permits, limits, and ultimately redeems, revealing a faith that blesses God beyond blessing.The conversation turns practical and piercing. Why were Job's children feasting while disaster spread? Distance and supernatural speed likely kept them unaware, underscoring the intensity of the trial. More crucially, the panel confronts entitlement: if we are creatures, our lives are gifts, not rights. That reframes grief without trivializing it. Like Joseph's confession—what was meant for evil, God meant for good—Job's confession anchors hope in a God who writes straight with jagged lines. The Lord gives; the Lord takes away; blessed be the name of the Lord.

According to the Smith's Bible Dictionary, Habakkuk means (embrace). This book would be the eighth, in order, of the Minor Prophets. Of the facts of the prophet's life, we have no certain information.Habakkuk lived in the final decades of Judah, Israel's southern kingdom. It was a time of injustice and idolatry, and he saw the rising threat of the Babylonian empire on the horizon. Unlike the other Hebrew prophets, Habakkuk doesn't accuse Israel or even speak to the people on Yahweh's behalf. Instead, all of his words are addressed to Yahweh. The book of Habakkuk tells us about Habakkuk's personal struggle to believe that Yahweh is good when there is so much tragedy and evil in the world.Habakkuk sees the darkness of the world as an invitation to have faith in Yahweh's promise to one day set things right. Living with such faith means trusting that Yahweh loves this world and works to one day eliminate all evil forever.In this chapter 2 we have an answer expected by the prophet (verse 1), and returned by the Spirit of Yahweh, to the complaints which the prophet made of the violence's and victories of the Chaldeans in the close of the prior chapter. The answer is, I. That after Yahweh has served his own purposes by the prevailing power of the Chaldeans, has tried the faith and patience of his people, and distinguished between the hypocrites and the sincere among them, he will consider with the Chaldeans, will humble and bring down, not only that proud monarch Nebuchadnezzar, but that proud monarchy, for their boundless and greedy thirst after dominion and wealth, for which they themselves should at length be made a prey (verses 2-8). II. That not they only, but all other sinners like them, should perish under a divine woe. 1. Those that are jealous are greedy of wealth and honors (verses 9, 11). 2. Those that are harmful and oppressive, and raise estates by wrongful acts and the violent seizure of someone's property (verses 12-14). 3. Those that promote drunkenness that they may expose their neighbors' to shame (verses 15-17). 4. Those that worship idols (verses 18-20).After waiting for an answer from Yahweh, Habakkuk finally gets what he is looking. Beginning with verse 6 we see the ‘Woe to the Chaldeans'6. Shall not all these = the “nations” and “peoples” (verse 5) “heaped unto him” by the Chaldean.parable = Hebrew. mashal. Comparison: Often a parable or proverb as a story of comparisons.take up a parable = a sarcastic song.proverb = enigma, mystery, riddle, puzzle or trick. Hebrew. hidah, as in Psa. 78:2. against him = when dislodged from his former reputation.Woe = Note the five woes in verses: 6, 9, 12, 15, 19. The “sarcastic song” here begins, and continues to the end of the chapter. It is a symmetrical whole, and consists of five stanzas; the first three consisting of three verses each, the fourth of four verses, and the last of two. Each stanza has its own subject, and all except the last begin with “Woe”; and all have a closing verse introduced with “for,” “because,” or “but.”how long? = i.e. for his time is short. How long meant to retain his ill-gotten gains?thick clay = pledges. ladeth himself with thick clay = namely, gold and silver dug out of the “clay,” of which they are a part.7. suddenly = the answer to the question, “How long?” (verse 6).Bite = or, exact usury. Often used of usury. vex = shake. Or to agitate (as with fear)Join me as we go Chapter by Chapter, Verse by Verse, Unraveling the Words of Yahweh!Have any questions?

Pastor James Walden continues our "Habakkuk - Waiting on God" series with a sermon on Habakkuk 2:12-20.You can find our sermon discussion questions at rvrsd.org/sgquestions.
Pastor Dave invites us into the book of Habakkuk, exploring what it means to have "faithful doubt"—trusting God even when the world feels upside down. From Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings" to the prophet's ancient cries of “How long, Lord?”, Pastor Dave reminds us that honest questions can grow seasoned faith. Like a cast iron pan refined by heat and oil, our faith is strengthened through life's trials and worshipful trust. Join us as we learn how to sing, wait, and believe—because God is still good, still sovereign, and still at work in times like these.
Gemeindegesang: Aus Glaube oder Götze?Prediger: Ramon BritoDatum: 9th November 2025Passage: Habakkuk 3:1-19
In this sermon, Pastor John explores the Book of Habakkuk, focusing on the prophet's laments and God's responses. He emphasizes that faith often begins in confusion and complaint, and that God invites us to bring our questions, sorrows, and doubts into His presence as an act of trust and worship. The sermon highlights that even when life is chaotic and uncertain, God's timing is perfect, and the righteous will live by faith.
Today's scripture reference is Habakkuk 1:12-2:1.
Rabbi Schiller begins a new series on the Book of Habakkuk, looking at why doesn't God seem to answer our prayers when we're facing suffering and tragedy, showing that from the LORD's long-term perspective, He ultimately works all things for good, in ways we cannot see or understand at the time.

Send us a textWhat happens to faith when the comforts vanish overnight? We take Job's story off the flannelgraph and hold it up to modern pressure—careers, devices, status, and the subtle bargains we strike to feel safe. From the first claim that God's hedge surrounds our lives, not our stuff, we follow the thread through Habakkuk's song in barren fields and Jesus' blunt line between God and mammon. The question behind each turn is simple and searing: who owns your devotion when the benefits dry up?Together we unpack how Satan misread Job and still misreads believers today. When character can't be denied, accusation moves to motives, tempting us to treat worship like a transaction. That's where James cautions against asking amiss and where Solomon's request for wisdom stands out as a model for God‑centered desire. We connect these dots to Revelation's buying and selling, arguing that the mark of the beast is less about tech and more about allegiance to a system that rewards compliance with material favor. It's the same old triad—lust of the flesh, lust of the eyes, pride of life—offering kingdoms that can't cross the grave.We also draw a boundary line around spiritual warfare: Satan's reach is real but limited. He may touch circumstances; he cannot touch the life God has claimed. That anchor reframes trials as formation rather than negotiation. False religion trades in control and optics, but grace produces a quiet fidelity that survives loss. If salvation is gift, not wage, then faith stops bargaining and starts abiding, whether the stalls are full or empty.If this conversation met you where you live, share it with a friend, subscribe for more honest theology and practical hope, and leave a review with the one line that stayed with you.

This week, Pastor Abraham continues our series in the minor prophets. Looking deeper about how they reflect in our time as we withstand trials, and look forward to the return of the one who has been prophesied.
I have been reading and re-reading the Prophet Habakkuk. Some brief background. Israel had fallen once again into idolatry. In God's great mercy, He would send Prophets to warn the people to stop the pagan worship and to return to God. We know that at Jonah's preaching in Nineveh, the entire place repented. They fasted and prayed that God would relent from His judgment and anger. God did relent and the people were spared. Israel and Judah continually repeated this pattern of disobeying God, finding themselves in trouble, calling out to God for help, God helping them and then rinse and repeat. There were times where the people refused to listen to God or His Holy Prophets. In this case, God has let Habakkuk know that the Chaldeans will be coming and will destroy Israel. It is like watching something in slow motion for Habakkuk. He knows God's judgment is right. God has given them warnings, red flags and tried to get their attention. The people are not responding to the prophet's rebukes. Babylon was going to decimate Judah. They are a merciless and exceptionally cruel nation. They were coming to bring God's judgment against His people.
Habakkuk 1:1-4 calls you to bring your pain to God, knowing that He will meet you to give hope and purpose.
