Key Themes in Habakkuk
Ahead of the publication of Nahum, Habakkuk and Zephaniah, we are sharing some handy outlines of these minor prophets. Drawn from the BST NIV Bible, here's an introduction to the key themes of Habakkuk.
- Joel, facing the bleakness of national disaster, anticipates a future outpouring of God's Spirit.
- Micah declares that God's punishment for wickedness is certain and just, but that he will preserve a faithful remnant.
- Finally, facing imminent destruction of the city, the land and the people, Habakkuk remains sure that God's hidden purposes are being worked out.
These prophets stood in their marketplace, powerfully applying their messages from God. David Prior shows that, like them, the church needs to be willing to share God's word in today's marketplace. Only this stand will bring hope, rather than despair, to a society under God's judgment.
