“Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.” James 1:2-4

A prayer of Habakkuk the prophet. On shigionoth. Habakkuk 3:1 LORD, I have heard of your fame; I stand in awe of your deeds, O LORD. Renew them in our day, in our time make them known; in wrath remember mercy. Habakkuk 3:2 renew (chayah ): to renew, revive and restore

CLIMBING OUT OF THE DIP God came from Teman, the Holy One from Mount Paran. Selah His glory covered the heavens and his praise filled the earth. Habakkuk 3:3 His splendor was like the sunrise; rays flashed from his hand, where his power was hidden. Plague went before him; pestilence followed his steps. He stood, and shook the earth; he looked, and made the nations tremble. The ancient mountains crumbled and the age-old hills collapsed. His ways are eternal. Habakkuk 3: REMEMBER WHAT GOD HAS DONE.

CLIMBING OUT OF THE DIP I heard and my heart pounded, my lips quivered at the sound; decay crept into my bones, and my legs trembled. Habakkuk 3:16 1. REMEMBER WHAT GOD HAS DONE. 2. ACCEPT WHAT GOD IS DOING.

CLIMBING OUT OF THE DIP 1. REMEMBER WHAT GOD HAS DONE. 2. ACCEPT WHAT GOD IS DOING. 3. TRUST WHAT GOD WILL DO. Yet I will wait patiently for the day of calamity to come on the nation invading us. Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will be joyful in God my Savior. Habakkuk 3:17-18

CLIMBING OUT OF THE DIP 1. REMEMBER WHAT GOD HAS DONE. 2. ACCEPT WHAT GOD IS DOING. 3. TRUST WHAT GOD WILL DO. The Sovereign LORD is my strength; he makes my feet like the feet of a deer, he enables me to go on the heights. Habakkuk 3:19
