Lesson Of The Day: Birth Of The Church...

Keeping It Real: You should not stay away from the church meetings, as some are doing, but you should meet together and encourage each other.

 LORD, I have heard of your fame; I stand in awe of your deeds, LORD.  Repeat them in our day, in our time make them known; in wrath remember mercy (Habakkuk 3:2).
 
This prayer is a prayer of renewing - reviving the spirits of the church, believers.  All that suffer under the afflictions of trials.  The church is made up of many bodies and we all have a part in the church hence the afflictions of the church is birthed.  Therefore we must remain on one accord and in accordance to the Will of God.  The prophet Habakkuk wasn't just asking for renewing of God's work but he references God's deliverance of the 3 Hebrew boys from the fiery furnace - His fame. 
 
We must always remember where God has delivered us from and hold fast to His unchanging hand during difficult times.  Bringing ourselves together in fellowship and pray as the prophet did for His people.  As a prophet it was Habakkuk responsibility (Genesis 20:7) to pray and often  prophesied and even those who he prophesied against he also prayed for. 
 
Thanks be to the Glory of God, that He gave us His Holy Spirit to comfort us during these trials.  We no longer have to wait on the answers or payers of the prophet but may approach His Holy Throne of Grace and petition Him day and night. God is Able.
 
He not only wants you to praise Him, Life him up but also serve and work for Him as well!  Ya Dig?..
