Summer Bible Study: WordGo’s Study of Habakkuk: Week 1, Day 4: Habakkuk 1:12-2:1

by atozmom, posted in WordGo Habakkuk Conversations With God

Summary of Habakkuk 1:12-2:1

Habakkuk does accept God’s plan for His people, but he is still confused about how such a good God can tolerate such evil people.

Questions for Habakkuk 1:12-2:1

9) God is everlasting, holy, and He will never die.  He’s the Rock. God cannot tolerate wrongdoing, and His eyes are too pure to look on evil. God is the ultimate judge.

10) Habakkuk asks God why he tolerates treachery and is silent when the evil ones swallow up those who are more righteous.

11) I honestly don’t personally struggle too much. I know that evil is in this world because of sinful man and that we all have free will to choose. I know God has a plan and is in control. Life is easier when you surrender all to Him. If I have questions, I can bring them to God himself for the answers.

Conclusions for WordGo’s Study of Habakkuk 1:12-2:1

We would do good to remember Habakkuk’s example of prayer. It’s always good to remember who God is before you lay out your doubts and fears at His feet.

Habakkuk asks, he listens, and then desires to change and take action. So must we all with our struggles in this world. We must trust God with what we cannot know or understand. God reveals what we need to know when we need to know it. How great is He! God answers our questions in His way in His timing. This builds trust and is something we must accept. This, ultimately, builds our faith!

6) God tells Habakkuk to look and watch and be utterly amazed at what He is about to do.

7) He tells Habakkuk that He will raise up the Babylonians who will seize their dwellings and who will come intent on violence. They will capture cities. No one wants to hear they will be conquered by known killers.

8 ) Yeah. Death. Moving. Not reaching my dreams. You feel disappointed, sad, mad, and confused. At first with all of the emotions humans are known for. Then, with acceptance and prayer.

Conclusions to WordGo’s Study of Habakkuk 1:5-11

God’s ways are not our own, and we must accept that and, indeed, embrace it. Yet, God is full of grace in offering His people a chance to repent. How awesome is He!
