Our number one story today is on the very soon-coming and imminent fall of Iran after Donald Trump has promised the Iranian protestors that the United States would step in and help them change their government militarily. This obviously is huge, but not the only story we are tracking for you today. Over in France, Macron has instructed his government to create a French Consulate Office in Greenland, to help stand against any aggression from Trump, something that has his MAGA followers cheering wildly. "Behold ye among the heathen, and regard, and wonder marvellously: for I will work a work in your days, which ye will not believe, though it be told you." Habakkuk 1:5 (KJB)

Habakkuk 1:1

Without vision, people drift, but with a God-given vision, believers run with purpose. In this eye-opening message, Pastor Corey Erman shows how divine vision lifts limitations, fuels faith, and guides decisions that align with Heaven's calling. When you see what God sees, you can step into what God has planned. “Write the vision and make it plain… that he may run who reads it.” - Habakkuk 2:2To support this ministry and help us reach the nations with revival visit RiverWPB.com or text GIVE and any amount to (855) 968-3708.

Hey CBJ Family, Have you ever wondered, "God, am I missing something?" Even when you pray daily...even when you're doing "all the right things"...the vision feels stuck.  You are not alone--and this episode is for you. In today's conversation, we're reframing vision through a biblical lens--not as something you chase, but as something God is forming within you. This isn't about vision boards or hype. It's about clarity, obedience, patience, and trusting God's timing when nothing seems to be moving. Rooted in Habakkuk 2:2-3, Proverbs 16:3, Psalm 127:1, and more, we unpack what it really means to wait well- without quitting, striving, or losing faith.  In this epsiode you'll learn: Why vision is about who God is shaping you to become, not just what you want How to tell if you're vision is aligned with God's will Why silence from God doesn't mean absence - it often means development What to do when you've been praying over the same vision long after excitemnt fades You'll hear this powerful truth: "If God gave you the vision quickly, He may grow you slowly so you can carry  it." We close with clear takeaways and a simple activation exercsie you can do today- not to rush the process, but to anchor yourself in peace, prayer, and trust. Press play if you're ready to: Stop second guessing Trust God's timing Stay faithful in the waiting Walk forward with peace, not panic Watch the show on YouTube or on audio, and subscribe so you never miss a week with us!

What does the Bible really say about protest, injustice, and state violence? In this raw, prophetic conversation, Pat Kahnke (St. Paul) and Amy Hawk (Portland) respond to the ICE shooting of Renee Good through the lens of Habakkuk, Amos, and the whole biblical witness. Why are so many Christians silent? What do the prophets say about corrupt governments and false worship? And how do followers of Jesus cry out — not just in prayer, but in public?

Pastor Seth Troutt delivers an insightful sermon as part of our series on Habakkuk, exploring the theme "In God We Trust" through Habakkuk chapter 2.Despite the apparent unfairness and silence from God at times, this message brings light to Habakkuk's raw honesty with God. Pastor Seth discusses how God uses a pagan nation, the Chaldeans, to execute justice on Israel, revealing the principle of poetic justice. He emphasizes that although justice may be delayed, it is not denied, and how faith in God allows us to live and endure through life's challenges.Join us as we dive deep into understanding God's judgment and mercy, and how it all points to the sacrifice of Christ, who bears the poetic justice we deserve.00:00 - Introduction00:11 - Christmas Offering Details06:07 - The Poetic Justice of God08:39 - The Five Woes18:09 - Justice Delayed is not Justice Denied24:03 - Faith gets us alive; faith keeps us alive30:59 - At the Cross**HOW TO FIND US*** SUBSCRIBE TO OUR YouTube CHANNEL: https://www.youtube.com/@IronwoodChurchAZFACEBOOK https://www.facebook.com/ironwoodchurchaz/ INSTAGRAM https://www.instagram.com/ironwood.church/WEBSITE https://www.ironwoodchurch.org/

If you haven't been paying attention to social media lately, the place where Trump lives more than at the White House, then you have missed some astounding QAnon commentary coming from not only his own channels, but from the White House, the Press Secretary, and of all places, the US Department of Labor. Arbeit Macht Frei, anyone? Normally this would not warrant its own podcast, but when you add in the acquisition of Gaza, the capture of Venezuela, the proposed takeover of Cuba, land strikes on Mexico and the annexation of Greenland by military force, now we have a podcast. Boy, do we ever.“Behold ye among the heathen, and regard, and wonder marvellously: for I will work a work in your days, which ye will not believe, though it be told you.” Habakkuk 1:5 (KJB)On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, Q and all the Anons were loud and proud during Donald Trump's first term, so much so that even Baptist pastors were preaching Q talking points from their pulpits as if it was truth. Then Biden won and the Q rhetoric went largely silent. Trump won reelection in a landslide and almost as soon as he was sworn in, the Q postings came roaring back to life. Then something strange, really strange, started happening. Slowly at first and then as a flood, Q-themed posts started popping up on official Trump administration social media outlets. No longer consigned to the dark edge of society but now openly promoted by the White House itself. Trump himself as recently as last night, was furiously posting and reposting classic, hardcore Q memes and imagery. So it may just be a conspiracy theory, but this time around, Trump is fully embracing its dystopian and arcane messaging, and today we show you why he is doing that and where it is taking us. One thing about all of this is quite true, nothing can stop what's coming. Welcome to the Last Days Deception.

In this message, Pastor Mark Butler explores the spiritual shift that occurs when we combine deep reverence for Scripture with practical obedience. Drawing from Habakkuk 2 and Hebrews 10, he challenges us to stop treating God's promises as casual suggestions and start treating them as priceless treasures.

Through the example of Habakkuk, Pastor Luke encourages believers to be honest with God about their disappointments, reminding us that God is always at work even when we don't understand His methods.As he sets the stage for this study, Pastor Luke invites the congregation to stand firm on God's character and to keep watching and waiting for His divine direction.Join us as we embark on this journey through Habakkuk, seeking to deepen our faith and trust in God's unfailing love and wisdom.00:00 - Introduction16:53 - God invites you to be honest when you're disappointed (1:2-3)24:27 - God is already at work, but you won't always understand it (1:5)28:06 - Stand firm on God's character (1:12)34:09 - Keep watching and waiting (2:1)**HOW TO FIND US*** SUBSCRIBE TO OUR YouTube CHANNEL: https://www.youtube.com/@IronwoodChurchAZFACEBOOK https://www.facebook.com/ironwoodchurchaz/ INSTAGRAM https://www.instagram.com/ironwood.church/WEBSITE https://www.ironwoodchurch.org/

What if the life you're dreaming about is closer than you think and it's waiting for you to put it into words?In today's episode of Elevate The Day, we're talking about the power of vision, imagination, and bold faith. If you've ever felt stuck, unclear, or hesitant to dream big, this conversation will encourage you to step back into God-inspired possibility.We explore how being intentional with your vision can transform the way you live, believe, and move forward. God has placed creativity and purpose inside you, and when you dare to imagine what's possible, you partner with Him in shaping your future.In this episode, you'll learn how to:• Be bold enough to imagine a vision for your life without shrinking it• Use your God-given imagination and creative power to dream big• Apply the biblical principle from Habakkuk 2:2: “Write the vision and make it plain”• Create clarity and direction by putting your dreams into words• Begin building the life you desire by daring to believe it's possibleWriting down your vision isn't just a practical step. It's an act of faith. When you put it on paper, you give your dreams direction, intention, and room to grow.Recommended Resource: This episode is inspired in part by the book Write It Down, Make It Happen by Henriette Anne Klauser, which dives deeper into how writing your goals and dreams can activate real change.Get the book here: ⁠https://www.amazon.com/s?k=Write+It+Down+Make+It+Happen+Henriette+Anne+Klauser⁠Take time today to dream with God, write it down, and trust Him with the outcome. Your vision matters and it's worth making plain.Scripture: “Write the vision and make it plain on tablets, that he may run who reads it.” (Habakkuk 2:2 NKJV)

Thank you for joining us this week as Pastor Parker continues our 2-week mini series in Habakkuk. We sincerely apologize for the audio quality as we were having some technical difficulties. Parker explains our need to have a faith built on trusting God and His timing rather than relying on our worldly desire to have things done when we want them i.e. NOW! We hope you are convicted and encouraged by this message and we can't wait to see you next week! As always — love God, love others and make disciples!

This week Pastor Marco begins a 7-week study in the Book of Amos. Pastor Marco Quintana introduces the Book of Amos and the prophet behind it—an unlikely messenger from Tekoa, a shepherd and tender of sycamore trees, sent to confront a prosperous but spiritually rotten nation. In this opening teaching, we explore why “majoring on the minors” reveals the righteousness and holiness of God, how prosperity can breed complacency and injustice, and why God's judgment begins with the nations before closing in on His own people. Amos is not a comfortable book—but it is a necessary one, exposing the seriousness of sin and the mercy of God who warns before He judges. Ultimately, Amos drives us to the hope of the gospel: the Savior who bore God's wrath so sinners can be forgiven and made right. The plan for 2026, for your future listening enjoyment, is to begin the new year with Amos, followed by Haggai, then Habakkuk. We'll begin April with an Easter message and then continue through the year in the Book of Mark. That will get us all the way to the second week of December where we'll finish 2026 with a series of holiday and Christmas messages from Pastor Marco. As with all plans, however, these may change, because our future is not up to us. Thank you for being a Moriel podcast listener, God bless!

We learn in the book of Habakkuk that God's promises require patience, that everything comes back to faith, and that joy can transcend our circumstances. When everything is stripped away in your life and God doesn't fix your difficulties, will He still be enough?

* You can get the sermon note sheet at: https://family-bible-church.org/2026Messages/26Jan04.pdf * Last week we began to look at the context and concept of the definition of faith. This is important because as we see throughout the New Testament and specifically here in Hebrews 10 and going into chapter 11, "The just shall live by faith." * We considered that True Faith is coming to God through the blood of Jesus and not works of the Law, and that True Faith is the Righteous Plan of God and an Act of His grace! * In Hebrews 11:1 we see the Biblical definition of faith. "Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." Faith is where what we consider abstract meets "reality." In this Biblical definition of faith, we see that Our Faith is the underpinning, or foundation, of that which we look toward. Our Faith is that which God uses to reprove others of practical matters (reality!) that is not visible to them. * Today, as we begin to consider the "evidence" for the "reality" laid out in chapter 11 we want to consider the Old Testament context of the statement "The just shall live by faith" found in Habakkuk. * This message was presented by Bob Corbin on January 4, 2026 at Family Bible Church in Martinez, Georgia.

In Genesis 9 we read of the LORD's command for this new creation, who had been preserved in the ark with Noah the 8th person (emblematic of Jesus whose name equals 888 in the Greek - compare 1Peter 3verses20-22); "to replenish (or fill) the earth" with this new creation. The fear and dominion of mankind over the lower creatures would be evident. There was a prohibition of eating food with the blood still in it - as the blood was representing life, which belonged to God. There was also a law reinforcing the penalty due to a murderer. Once more the Almighty covenants that He will never again destroy the earth by a flood. The surety of His promise being seen in the rainbow. The offspring from Noah's 3 sons - Shem, Ham and Japheth - peopled the newly refreshed earth. Unfortunately, Noah became drunk, and it seems was sodomised by his son Ham. Noah pronounced a curse on Ham and spoke of a blessing that would come through his son Shem. Jesus Christ came from the Jewish race -Romans 3verses1-2; 9verses3-5. Shem became the ancestral head of the Semitic and Asiatic people; Ham the progenitor of the African people; and Japheth the forbear of the European race. In Genesis 10 we are told of the 70 nations that came from Noah's 3 sons - Shem, Ham and Japheth - see Moses' comment in Deuteronomy 32verses8. There we are told that the number of nations was determined by the Almighty by the number of Israel's (Jacob's) children, who into Egypt (Genesis 46verses8, 27; see also the Apostle Paul's comments to the Athenians in Acts 17verses26).Psalm 11 tells of Yahweh being in His holy temple and mankind must understand this gives Him the authority to judge the wicked. Habakkuk gives us the take home message which we must ponder - 2verses14, 20.In Psalm 12 the psalmist muses, 'Why have the humble vanished and suffered oppression. Surely, the Omnipotent Creator cannot tolerate evil. Surely, He must act for the downtrodden against their oppressors. He gives the assurance that He will rise against them in His faithfulness. In the 13th Psalm the writer personal asks, 'How long will it be till the LORD intervenes in support of the writer. The writer declares that failure on the part of his Sovereign to act is a cause for the wicked to boast and vaunt themselves in the world. We see it constantly, but we can be assured that at the appropriate time judgment will be poured out upon the evil - Acts 17verses30-31.The judgment mentioned in Matthew 7 refers to critical fault finding in others and not the need to show discernment, which is essential for us to exercise, when we judge righteous judgment as we are commanded to do. The askers will receive; the seekers will find; and to the knockers doors will be opened. Our Lord highlights the golden rule - do to others what you would wish them to do for you.Striving to please God must characterise the disciple's life. The witness of those professing discipleship will be evidenced in their fruit; without which our Lord Jesus Christ and His Father will fail to recognisetheir children. Only doers of the Word and not simply forgetful hearers are grounded and established as faith upon the Rock.Thanks for joining us - we pray you found these comments helpful in your appreciation of God's words, join again tomorrow

Everywhere you turn and everywhere you look, everything just seems off, really, really off. We are told that America is right now in a ‘Golden Age' never before seen in our 250 year history, and not only is that not true, it's an out-and-out lie, yet a very large sector of our country believe it. We are told America only wants peace, yet we watch as a ramp-up to war takes place around the clock. What's going on? Is this mass hypnosis, is it mind control, what is it? Hey, Habakkuk, what sayest thou?“Behold ye among the heathen, and regard, and wonder marvellously: for I will work a work in your days, which ye will not believe, though it be told you.” Habakkuk 1:5 (KJB)On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, over at Mar-a-Lago on New Year's Eve, people watched as a female artist live-painted a ‘Jesus painting', but it wasn't the Jesus of the Bible. This Jesus had a decidedly Roman Catholic feel, with piercing blue eyes, swirling in a sea of dark colors, and looking for all the world like a portrayal of Antichrist. The assembled crowd cheered as it was auctioned off for $3 million dollars to a Catholic charity. Over in New York City, deep in an underground abandoned subway tunnel, the new Socialist Muslim mayor was sworn in on a Qu'ran. To me, this completely sets the tone for what we might expect to see in 2026. Elsewhere, Trump is launching 6G to connect with human implantable devices, renaming all sorts of pre-existing buildings after himself, and preparing to build the Arch Du Trump in Washington. Elon Musk says 2026 will be the year that his Neuralink brain chips really take off, and Islam is positioned for a level of control this country has never seen before. As if all that wasn't bad enough, Turning Point USA, whom we showed you with our end of year Podcast in 2025 to be a hotbed of demons and devils, is launching a plan to bring their One World Religion to every church in America. This isn't Satan's ‘little season' we are watching, this is the big show. Today we invite you to join us as we lift up the end times rock to see what's crawling underneath it. It won't be a pretty sight, but it'll be the Truth, and we promise it will be a blessing to you here in 2026.

Is your heart asking, “How long, O Lord”? Who or what are you waiting for? A job? A friend to be a friend? Someone to love you or for you to love back? Are you waiting for a break—or a baby? A child to say they're sorry, reconciliation, or an important prayer to be answered? Maybe you're waiting for the bullying or betrayal to stop—or lying, hating, injustice, corruption, or hurt. Or perhaps you are in a crisis of faith that needs to be resolved.In this message from Habakkuk, Jill Briscoe offers encouragement for the tough times in life.

Send us a textWhat if thanksgiving isn't just a response to what God has done—but an act of faith for what He has promised?In this episode, we explore thanksgiving as the highest expression of faith—praise offered before evidence appears, joy chosen before circumstances change.In this episode, we reflect on:Why thanksgiving leads to praise—and praise leads to joyThe joy cycle: Thanksgiving → Praise → RejoicingThe difference between thanking God for what has happened vs. thanking Him by faithWhy praise in advance doesn't deny feelings—but transcends themBiblical examples of faith-filled thanksgiving, including Jesus HimselfHow gratitude shifts your perspective, guards your peace, and opens your heart to God's increaseEven when the fig tree doesn't blossom…Even when the harvest hasn't appeared…Faith says: “Yet I will rejoice.”This message is an invitation to ask yourself:What would change if I thanked God before the harvest?And to declare with confidence:“This time next year — I'll testify.”Themes: Faith • Thanksgiving • Praise • Joy • Mind Shifts  • Trusting God • HopeScriptures referenced: Psalm 136:1–4 Hebrews 11:1–3 Joel 1:12 Habakkuk 3:17–19 Psalm 67:5–6 Philippians 4:6–9Get Your Hopes Up!@damiteninwww.bydami.comwww.tribalmarks.com

"Even though the fig trees have no blossoms, and there are no grapes on the vines; even though the olive crop fails, and the fields lie empty and barren; even though the flocks die in the fields, and the cattle barns are empty, yet I will rejoice in the Lord! I will be joyful in the God of my salvation! The Sovereign Lord is my strength! He makes me as surefooted as a deer, able to tread upon the heights." Habakkuk 3:17-19 NLTTake time to reflect on this year, and identify areas where you could rejoice more in God and rely more on His strength— no matter what 2026 holds.

Scientists studied the resilience of sixteen societies worldwide, including the Yukon and Australian Outback. They analyzed thousands of years of archaeological records, tracing the impact of famines, wars, and climate. One factor stood out—the frequency of downturns. One would think that they would weaken societies, but the researchers found the opposite to be true. Instead, they found that societies that faced frequent hardships developed resilience, bouncing back faster from future challenges. Stress, it appears, can forge resilience. The prophet Habakkuk understood this kind of resilience. As he considered Judah's impending devastation, he painted a bleak picture: “crop fails,” “no sheep . . . no cattle,” and barren land (3:17). Amid earthly securities being stripped away, however, the prophet declared, “Yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will be joyful in God my Savior” (v. 18). His joy wasn’t tied to circumstances and earthly pleasures but anchored in God’s unchanging character and salvation. In the bleakest seasons, the prophet chose joy and became more resilient. Like Habakkuk and those resilient societies, our spiritual endurance grows through repeated adversity. When we face difficult seasons in life, let’s cling to our hope in God and remember that He’s with us—using our challenges to grow our joy and resilient faith.

Why do bad things happen to good people? In this powerful father-son conversation, Kirk and James Cameron dive deep into the age-old question of suffering, tragedy, and God's purpose in our pain. With biblical stories from Job, Habakkuk, and the crucifixion of Jesus, they explore how trials build faith, character, and hope—and why God is still good, even in the hardest seasons. If you've ever felt like God was distant in your pain, this episode is for you.   To learn more about the sponsor of today's show and what our family currently uses for our healthcare check out Christian Healthcare Ministries by visiting https://hubs.ly/Q02vWQGy0    Editing and production services provided by thepodcastupload.com   #TheKirkCameronShow #KirkCameron #WhyDoesGodAllowSuffering #TheProblemofEvil #ChristianPodcast #DangerousConversations #JoeRogan

In this episode, we explore God's answer to Habakkuk's cry: “Write the vision; make it plain.” God assures the prophet that His justice will come at the appointed time—even if it seems delayed. Habakkuk 2 contrasts the pride of the wicked with the faith of the righteous, declaring that “the righteous will live by faith.” Through a series of “woes,” God exposes the emptiness of greed, violence, injustice, and idolatry, reminding us that human power always falls short.

Pastor Chad shares a forward-looking, faith-filled message centered on what God is calling the church into for 2026, built around three themes: going higher, walking in God's favor, and sharing the good news boldly. Drawing from Habakkuk, Luke, and Romans, he teaches that not every obstacle is meant to be removed—some mountains are meant to be climbed, because it's on the ascent that God strengthens faith and reveals who He is. He emphasizes that God's favor is not about a pain-free life, but about God's unearned grace empowering believers beyond their own ability in every season. Finally, he challenges the church to embrace its obligation, eagerness, and boldness to share the gospel, reminding listeners that the good news carries real power to change lives and that God is actively stirring a fresh movement of evangelism for the days ahead.

DOWNLOAD KEYNOTE SLIDES Psalm 37:3, Trust in the Lord, and do good; Dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness. 4 Delight yourself also in the Lord, And He shall give you the desires of your heart. 5 Commit your way to the Lord, Trust also in Him, And He shall bring it to pass. Dr. Bryan Hudson teaches that biblical joy is not dependent on circumstances but is a deep, settled gladness rooted in God's presence, promises, and purposes. Joy is defined as delight—being “bent” toward God in devotion, obedience, and purpose—rather than temporary happiness that comes and goes. Drawing from Luke 2, Psalm 37, Nehemiah, and Habakkuk, the message explains that true joy develops as believers delight themselves in the Lord, abide in Him daily, and remain committed to His will even in difficulty. Using Nehemiah's example, Dr. Hudson shows that joy is strengthened when people refuse to become comfortable in complacency, stay aligned with God's mission, and serve others faithfully. Ultimately, “the joy of the Lord is your strength” because a life bent toward God produces enduring resilience, purpose, and spiritual power.

Pastor K Jay delivered a timely message titled “Make It Plain,” calling us to quiet the noise, hear God clearly, and run with the vision He's already placed within us.KEY TAKEAWAYS ⬇️✨ Vision gives structure and purposeWithout vision, life becomes unrestrained and mismanaged. Vision brings discipline, order, and direction to what God has called you to do.Proverbs 29:18✍

* You can get the sermon note sheet at: https://family-bible-church.org/2025Messages/25Dec28.pdf * We have seen that Jesus came to establish a "New and Living" Way into the Presence of God. Through the sacrificial death of the Messiah, we can - by faith - come openly and with confidence into YHWH's presence knowing that this is the fulfillment of His Redemptive Plan. * The author of the book of Hebrews then chastened and exhorted the Messianic Jews to not be deceived into thinking that they needed to turn back to the Law. If they did so, they would be trampling the sacrifice of the Messiah and placing their confidence in their ability to "work" for their salvation. * He quoted the prophet Habakkuk, declaring: "The just shall live by faith." * He now transitions into a discussion of what faith is and what it looks like. He, again, reveals that this Redemptive Plan of God spans from Creation through his current day. * Lord willing, we will be spending the next four weeks considering this marvelous chapter. Today, we begin by considering the Foundation and Focus of Faith. * This message was presented by Bob Corbin on December 28, 2025 at Family Bible Church in Martinez, Georgia.

A brief devotion in preparation for a season of thanksgiving, considering Habakkuk's resolution to rejoice in the face of the loss not just of the mere delights of life but the very supports of life. However, when all is gone, God is not, and God is still good. Habakkuk therefore, facing the worst of all possible futures in this world, looks up to the God of salvation and resolves to rejoice and so bring glory to God whatsoever comes to pass.

In this section of Habakkuk's oracle, God narrates the prophesied destruction of Babylon, the evil empire that would crush rebellious Judah. Through this description of Babylon's self-destructive actions and God's just judgment, we receive timeless lessons on how we ought to live today. As we get ready for a new year, this text vividly showcases the folly of pursuing, placing our hope in, and worshipping idols, and the goodness of trusting in God, our Creator, instead.
